I was playing the old Quake ripoff Chasm: the Rift, where it has the ability to blow off enemies' limbs. Would something like this be possible in remakequake?
Was done for ragdoll Quake (can't remember the proper name) which was a MP DP mod with dismemberment that basically painted the walls and floor.
We decided to use Gyro (the same physics code it used) but avoid ragdoll / dismemberment. We've talked back and forth about locational damage, but so far I'm not convinced we could have it without bloating the project another X decades beyond its sell by. The problems are different animations, skins for each respective dismemberment / damage multiplied by the amount of dismemberable monsters and a completely reworked collision system (shot to legs = shot to legs). We're with a very heavy workload already and still haven't even started alot of the monsters and have no finished monsters, although some of the base ones are close. Where did he go?
Now I remember his idea of the undead knight. Lunaran, come back from the moon! You ran too far! It's about multiplayer.

Based purely from the shots, the first shot is nice, good change from the usual themes and the more finished version of the CTF map with the cracked hole is looking very nice.
2nd shot (dm2?) is kinda cheesy tho. Comments read at least.
I've always liked the Ogro set used in dm2 personally - there's enough gears in there as well. Not quite gearpr0n . . . Could be a news post, but it's only a demo, and MP orientated on this SP mapping forum. Guessing those that care will check it anyway. The autoexec is like that so it works on linux as well. these eyes dont do anything if they are supposed to :? http://www.quaketastic.com/upload/files/screen_shots/rmqthing1.jpg
the sky is a little wack: http://www.quaketastic.com/upload/files/screen_shots/rmqthing2.jpg I've no idea what those eyes are doing there . . . will check. I can't see them though - can you give me repro conditions?
Where are you stood in that second shot? I know of one point where it's possible to stand on a should be unreachable, but that ones looks much more broken. And I see the fullbrights in the horizontal skull trim as well. ProQuake 4 currently only supports the "standard" skybox size of 512x512. I haven't had time to make it support any skybox size yet.
The sky probably look like that because fog is enabled in dm2rq's worldspawn.
That's not the fault of RemakeQuake, but the fault of ProQuake 4. Right now, any level of fog will make the skybox entirely black. Skybox and fog support in ProQuake 4 aren't refined yet. re: the autoexec.cfg thing. An engine should execute that as part of quake.rc, for example I get this DirectSound initialized Sound sampling rate: 11025 Hz CDAudio_Init: No CD in player. CD Audio Initialized Operating System: Windows Vista Host Initialized execing quake.rc execing default.cfg execing config.cfg execing autoexec.cfg couldn't exec couldn't exec The first instance is autoexec.cfg being executed in the gamedir folder. I guess you are wanting the id1 autoexec.cfg to get executed as well. Why? Is there a good reason for that? That isn't normal Quake behavior for a mod. I dunno. Maybe you guys have a reason that isn't immediately known but makes perfect sense. Even if you decide you want it to do that (execute the id autoexec.cfg) the filesystem is operating system agnostic.
Doing it the Linux way The basic reason was so player's don't have to put all their settings back just to test the demo. I did the same in warp as well, just seems a bit of extra user-friendly.
Is it undesired behaviour? I assume savvy types will c+p their own options in, but casual players will probably be irritated to manually reset their config. Sp walkthrough . . . I'll take a look. Never checked the MP maps in SP, at least the ones I didn't make. The ones I did maybe once or so. That's an ambient_ghost. The idea was to make something similar to a moving sound producer.
The code has since been made obsolete by our NPC's and the ghost is apparantly removed in MP - I used the monster AI code. Basically a scrap that needs to be removed, looks like Aenoch was experimenting and forgot to remove it.
