========================= QUAKE MONSTER PACK (v1.0) ========================= File: monpack.zip Version: 1.0 (look for many future versions) Date: 7-27-97 Author: Ben Cline Email: clineb@ix.netcom.com Credits: Mod credits at bottom, Bubbah (for not minding me giving his Snakeman a couple of new sounds), Jonathan Daughtrey for graphic editing help (http://www.planetquake.com/quakeplace), and a BIG thanks to Roscoe A. Sincero for help on the QC editing (http://www.gameaholic.com/idgames/quakec) -=Please visit the Quake Monster Pack website=- http://pw1.netcom.com/~clineb/quake * Overall * ----------- Quake C : yes New Sounds : yes (a bunch + more) New MDL : yeah, a shitload - New monsters - New weapons QC Files : No (mail me if you want them, though) New BSP : Nope * Description * --------------- This patch adds several new monsters to the game, as well as two new weapons. (This patch is probably one of the first add-ons to contain this many new monsters, than most Quake -C modifications, I must add). Not only that, but I basacally improved some of the new monster's sounds (ones that never had any new sounds to begin with). The new monsters featured in this version are: - Bazooka Babe - Blarg - Chthon Scrag - Drone - Gremlin - Lava Man - Manga Babe - Snakeman - Willy The Spider The new weapons are: - Gatling Gun - Flame Thrower (my new version) *note: The Phantom Swordsman was supposed to be included in this version, but I didn't get a chance to configure it, so I'll just wait until version 2.0 to add him. * Improvements * ---------------- - The Flame Thrower is now just strong enough to gib Zombies - The Chthon Scrag was too powerful before, so I lowered it's energy a bit - The Spider has two new sounds - when it fires its venom, and when you shoot it - The Snakeman has three new sounds - when its idle, when it spots you, and when it dies - The Manga Babe's "WAAAAA-HA!!" sound has been taken out, because it sounded really stupid - The Drone will make a "bleep-bleep" sound when it spots you (since it had no sight sound before) - There is a death notification (eg: Player was shot by a Grunt) for each fo the new monsters - There is a new console/startup background * How it works * ---------------- - The Blarg replaces some of the Fiends - The Chthon Scrag replaces some of the regular Scrags (mostly all) - Drones replace some of the Enforcers - The Snakeman and the Spider replace all of the Ogres - The Spider also replaces some of the Tarbabys (aka:Spawn) - The Lava Man replaces some of the Shamblers - The Bazooka Babe replaces some Death Knights, and some Enforcers too - The Manga Babe replaces some of the Grunts, and some knights too - Gremlins replace some of the Zombies, and some of the khights too - The Gatling Gun replaces all Supder Nailguns - The Flame Thrower replaces all Grenade Launchers * Installation * ---------------- Make a directory in your Quake folder called "monpack". Then, unzip the file in that directory. After that, run: c:\quake\quake -game monpack If it all worked correctly, you should see a new startup (console) screen, as well as a new demo. * Coming up in the next version * -------------------------------------------- In the next version I'll include these new monsters: - The Phantom Swordsman (was previously intended for this version) - The Goblin (possibly a new, and better skin) - Cyberdemon (I hope someone will give it a better skin) - The Dragon (with a killer new skin from Rogue's version) - The Electric eel Also, I'll include these new weapons: - The Plasma Gun (Doom version, WILL add better sounds) - Proximety Mines - Possibly a whole lot more, as I find the QC files * Model credits * ----------------- Tritian, PHLIPT, and Christopher Bolin - for the Gatling Gun Ken Turner - for Willy The Spider, Bubbah - for the Snakeman, Bazooka Babe, and Blarg, Jacob Fenwick, Robin Ball, and Jim Dodge - for the Drone, BrAdeAlDo - for the Chthon Scrag, Ludovic Texier - for the Manga Babe, Ritual (formely known as Hipnotic) Entertainment - for the Gremlin and Rogue Entertainment - for the Lava Man
