Speed Mapping Vanilla Progs

#31782 posted by dumptruck_ds on 2021/01/15 18:07:15

Has anyone created a progs specifically for speedmaps? Simple things like fixing kill count, Shambler collision and other bugfixes? I'm thinking about doing this.

I know traditionally, dropping maps into id1/maps was the SOP but I always make a mod folder for SM releases. Users could back up the standard progs if they prefer that method.

There is the "Ultimate Regular Quake Patch" which is supposed to be a good replacement for the id1 progs, fixing things like fish count and megahealth double-rot speed etc, without changing any gameplay.

Cool. I was aware of this one but it adds quite a bit with bots and skins etc. I'll mess around with it and see if it's a good candidate for speed mapping.

Anyone know why fimg and Wally refuse to open my gfx.wad?

Fimg returns an "invalid extension" error, Wally attempts to load the thing but all items within are grayed out.

Bad Wad?

#31786 posted by madfox on 2021/01/17 21:09:53

Might be corupted (?!) Did you check with Quark/new textures/import wad?

#31787 posted by oh, that person on 2021/01/17 21:18:57

The game wouldn't run if it was corrupted, right?

#31788 posted by negke on 2021/01/17 21:28:50

No idea about Fimg. Wally may be a missing palette.lmp file perhaps?

Try AdQuedit if you haven't.

I Got AdQuedit To Accept The Wad File...

#31789 posted by oh, that person on 2021/01/18 00:01:04

But it shows me the contents of gfx.wad as all black?

I opened it with the quake palette file that was provided and everything.

Hi.

Oops

Fitzquake Based?

#31792 posted by dumptruck_ds on 2021/01/19 08:42:48

I know Quakespasm, QSS, Mark V, vkQuake and obviously Fitzquake are uhhhh Fitzquake based engines.

Are there any others? researching for a video.

#31793 posted by metlslime on 2021/01/19 10:21:52

a few more, that may be defunct now...

FitzPro080 -- this was a port Baker made by combining ProQuake and Fitzquake. Links don't seem to work anymore.

Fitzquake-DOS -- "A DOS port of FitzQuake to fxMesa for 3DFX Voodoo cards"

DirectFitz -- mh's port of Fitzquake to use Direct3D

QuakeDroid -- Baker's Android port of MarkV

FitzKurok -- this is a completely separate game though

Oh Yeah...

#31794 posted by metlslime on 2021/01/19 10:23:29

and RMQ Engine was based on QuakeSpasm I think.

Thx

#31795 posted by dumptruck_ds on 2021/01/19 10:25:09

wow!! I had no idea. FiztKurok deserves it's onw video I guess. :)

Confirmed

#31796 posted by dumptruck_ds on 2021/01/19 10:31:59

RMQ engine source

Forked from QuakeSpasm (FitzSDL) 0.85.3 SVN revision 176

05/31 2010

metl - that's quite a legacy, so many people found your work useful and play every day with it's children.

I have the news post hidden for now, let me know when it should actually go live.

Or, if the URLs and text of the post are going to be different, might be faster to just make another news submission.

FitzQuake-SDL

#31798 posted by SleepwalkR on 2021/01/20 22:38:49

https://kristianduske.com/fitzquake/

My own port of fitzquake to SDL, I think QuakeSpasm was based on this.

Oh Of Course!

#31799 posted by metlslime on 2021/01/20 22:49:54

How did i forget that :(

Well

#31800 posted by SleepwalkR on 2021/01/21 00:19:44

It was 12 years ago ;-)

I made this picture a long time ago, just dug it up again, might be interesting:

I guess the blue ones are the still active or somewhat recent projects.
