================================================================ Title : Crouch v2 (ooo, very original.) Filename : PROGS.DAT Game data file. PLAYER.MDL New player model, 1 extra frame! CROUCH.CFG some aliases (+crouch, -crouch) QUAKE.RC runs the CROUCH.CFG file. CROUCH.TXT This file. Author : Glen Murphy AKA FrenZon Email Address : frenzon@hotmail.com Description : Crouch for quake! Crouching was the only thing Duke had over Quake No Longer! You move slower, strafe like a pregnant yak (with no legs.) and can't shoot. BUT, your model, and bounding box are only 22 units high, (about 1/3 normal,) so, you can hide underwater in those normally waist-high water bits. hide behind walls or just sit there looking silly. Most of the levels in quake do not have much in the way of waist high obstacles, so use this to hide underwater or behind windows, or, just to look cute. Instructions : Make a directory called 'crouch' (or whatever you choose) in the Quake directory. Place the crouch.zip in this directory. run Pkunzip with the -d option. Now, run quake like so: 2. Quake -game crouch bind a key to "+crouch" like this: bind f "+crouch" now, pressing and holding f will make you crouch, releasing f will return you to normal. getting damaged will also stop the crouch. alternatively, impulse 12 will start the crouch, and selecting a weapon or impulse 13 will stop it. 3.

Additional Credits to : Ben Cumming AKA Hen for playtesting Andras Nemes for being useful CF :) Dene Murphy for uhhh...`co-operating' ================================================================ * Play Information * Single Player : Yes Cooperative : Yes Deathmatch : Yes New Sounds : Nup New Model : Yes, well, a new frame anyway * Construction * Base : Qcc, the player model Editor(s) used : 3d studio R4, meddle, MS-DOS edit (WooHoo!) Known Bugs : The player glides across the floor when crouched, play it and see. (It looks rather nifty actually) If a player finishes a level while crouched, the next level will start with them upright, but with the movement penalties of crouching, can be rectified by crouching and un-crouching again. Crouching in areas such as the first secret bit of e1m1 is a bit strange. i have to unpack it to work. boohoo The player slows down but holding down the run key speeds him up again even if autorun is on. Goin through teleporters such as those in the start map is strange. Build Time : Lots History v.01 (August 96) UNRELEASED single player only (crouch used global variables.) used the dead player model. heavy bugs in multiplayer (other player couldn't fire while you crouched.) teehee v.1 (November 96) RELEASED new model, multi-player useable model floated in the air, looked queer. sorry to all those who downloaded this patch and used it in multi (no bug testing you see, i like to copy the makers of SKYNEt.) v.2 (March 97) RELEASED abandoned the PAK file and went with normal (Unpaked files) this avoids the bug? where the player model wouldn't work even if under the Progs directory in the PAK file. model works fine. * Future Plans for this patch * New frames for firing. New frames for walking (Shuffling). Gradual crouching Half crouch (hunch sortay thing) Player farts when crouched. * Copyright shit * This file, and all accompanying files (see list at top of page) may NOT be used for commercial purposes, if a publisher wishes to do so, then they must contact me at the above address or phone number.
