------------------------------------------------------------ Grappling Hook QuakeC Mod v2.2 10/9/96 Compiled with the new Quake v1.06 source code By: Perecli Manole AKA: Bort ------------------------------------------------------------ This version of the grappling hook is the most playable. It allows usage with just one key, while allowing your undisturbed use of weapons at all times. Description ----------- Grapplig hook is a rotating iron shaft with claws, thrown by a chain and used for grasping, drawing and holding. Can be used for getting out of tight spots, getting to unreachable places and even grabbing your enemy, inflicting great pain. Grappling hook does not use any ammunition. Usage ----- impulse 98 to throw, hook, and pull impulse 97 to let go I recommend binding your keys like this. In your autoexec.cfg add these lines: // grappling hook alias +hook "impulse 98" alias -hook "impulse 97" bind [Your desired key] +hook This will ensure better playability since you can control the grappling hook with just one key. Installation ------------ In your Quake directory parallel to the id1 directory make a new directory called "hook". In this directory, put the pak0.pak file supplied and your autoexec.cfg with the above lines added. From within the quake directory start Quake with this command line: quake -game hook If you need help or have any comments or suggestions regarding this mod, here is my address: Perecli@ix.netcom.com Special thanks to: Mike (Last name unknown) for the hook model.
