QUAKE-C: Source files.. (.qc). There is also a Unified Diff PATCH file available in the archive k-ctf-p.zip. -=CT=-KALWeb's CTF4.0 Modification v1.0 ======================================= OK, it isn't much and it really doesn't take too much to explain it either. This code (ie, you need the program called QCC or similar) will compile and make a new progs.dat file for CTF4. Anyways, included in this mod is my rather cool Droppable Runes code. There are two different versions. Original and *NEW* :) Original is Teamplay + 2048 *NEW* is Teamplay + 4096 I am working on a Tossable Flag as well (for those hard to reach back areas...) which will allow a 0-point capture by tossing it at the base. This would give 1 point to the flag carrier who tossed the flag. That will be all at that point. But as of now, that is not in there. I will be adding to this mod (and this code) so if you use this code, be sure to keep the modified code around (if you don't use it) so you can try the new code when I modify it. Or something like that. :) To see the code where I changed things, just open the .qc file in your favorite text editor (with Search capabilities) and search for -=CT=-KALWeb. I have marked my modifications with the following lines of code in some form or other... /* -=CT=-KALWeb : */ ... code here ... /* End -=CT=-KALWeb */ -or- /* -=CT=-KALWeb End */ Have fun and good luck! PS - if you can implement the Tossable flag as I wish it to be, please do so and send me the modified code marked accordingly so I can see what you did. I will then mention you in the next read me file. Thanks! :) NEW in Version 1.0!!! ===================== 1) Begin game and Level messages work now!! 2) Renamed Original Code to *NEW* and the cool code to Original. Not to confuse anyone, but the way I originally intended the code to work was how the cool code turned out... BUGS in Version 1.0!!! ====================== 1) Sometimes a rune will bounce off of the player instead of being taken by the player. Only happened once and I think I fixed it, but if you see it happen, be sure to email me and tell me what you were doing. (ie which Drop Rune ver you were using, did you just drop a rune, etc. Thanks) 2) A rune got stuck in the wall for about 10 minutes. I finally had to grapple up and get it down. Hasn't happened again, but if you see it, take a screen shot for me. :) 3) For some reason, I had a hard time killing myself after dropping the strength rune and using the TBolt underwater in ctf1. But I *know* I fixed that one. :) Future Ideas for Version 2.0!!! =============================== 1) Tossable Flag with Tossable Capture Option 2) Flag Carrier will be a little faster but also take more damage from shots and rockets. 3) Person who captures the flag will get weakened version of all 4 runes for about 1 minute. (Instead of 15 frags...the capturer will get 5 frags.) 4) I want to replace the grapple with the AirFist patch, but I think I will stick to this one and leave that for a *far* future release.
