You can set mouse look to be always on if you put +mlook just like that in a single line in the autoexec.cfg
Really? Damn, So Close..
NICE!!!
spirit, yer a proper SCHOLAR!!! (as they say over here, sometimes..).
i think you can take from my exuberant response that what you told me met with success!
thank god, now i can play through this classic game..
is it just me, or have they really ramped up the difficulty/ai, especially with the grunts. i'm actually very nervous around them now..
Music Mods
i've just installed nehahra with nehquake via qi, and i'm not sure about the music mods that are in .xm format.
even though qi puts the mods folder in the main nehahra folder, i'm not sure if it's correct.
i usually use quakespasm, and i know where i am, with regards to getting music files to work, and the folder structure etc.
there's a music file in the nehahra mods folder called 'neh1', so i assume it should be playing when i start the forge city 1 map.
also, i can't find any instructions concerning how to play music mods in nehquake, as there wasn't a read me contained in the download.
anyone got any advice on the above post?
cheers though!
baz.

well, i don't know which maps play the music, but few engines (if any besides the original neh?) support tracker music.
quakespasm and others play audio tracks (ogg, wav, mp3).

incidentally, if you want to just play the songs, get modplug/modplug tracker to open and play .mod, .s3m and .it files.

good call, I will be making vorbis of those mods.

Nehahra plays the music dynamically, when triggered, doesn't it? Not universally looped throughout the map like normal Quake music.
Anyways

Just a note that I haven't forgotten about this and I apologize about some earlier crabby posts. I had some major health misadventures (from which I have mostly recovered) coupled with my life being turned upside down. August to December was an awful period, to sum it up. It was the perfect shit-storm and it set me wayyyy behind where I wanted to be on a number of fronts. Things are much better now and though new opportunities have arisen and there are other things on my plate that have higher priority ... well, know that I haven't forgotten. There's really nothing else I can say atm.
Good discussion going on here. Cheers.
To Update

As an update: the chance of returning to Quake work on Nehahra (and other meddling with the Quake engine) has gone up considerably. After this summer, I'll have nothing but free time (bachelor anew, among other reasons) and because I'm a nonstop creative hurricane, I will be able to find time for it without question. Just *because*.
I did make a recent entry on my Slipgate Nine Entertainment blog about Quake & Nehahra too, for any interested.
That blog is here: http://slipgate9.wordpress.com
I'll drop a note when I get those wheels turning again (Winter, on a guess). The next six months I'll be focused on the major life transition, which isn't all a bad thing.
Cheers.

That's good news!

Life is a journey. New beginnings aren't a bad thing if it leads to better, happier times. People tend to stick to bad situations because it's familiar. With familiarity, there is an off-setting comfort. Eventually, the bad can outweigh the comfort. That's when "change" isn't as scary as keeping everything the same. I'm optimistic and know that it's all for the best.

I look forward to seeing some new stuff from you. Sorry to hear about the real life shit though. Most of us go through all of that at some point and as one of them let me tell you that it's never as bad as it seems when viewed in retrospect. You seem to have a good mindset on it so I'm sure that you'll get through it ok (and you can always make a particularly nasty and deadly trap in a level and give the a name... if you know what I mean).
Good If You Can See It That Way
Best wishes either way ;-)

(No such catharsis will be necessary, Quaketree. :) It's an amicable thing.)
Hmm..
i've played through the whole forge section, and not heard any music.
the only music i have heard is on the start map /the intro movie and the forge end of level screen.
is there a way i can play continuous music of my own choosing?
i'm using the nehquake nehahra engine.
anyone know how to achieve this?
Try:
#380 posted by RickyT33 on 2012/06/15 21:19:05
Open an audio program in another tab
Create playlist
Set to continuous loop
Press play
Start Quake
Can you hear continuous music of your own choosing?
Touche..
ok, sarcasm, i get it, i really do (honestly).
anyway, that aside, that will do the trick just fine, actually.
i was just thinking to play my own tracks the way quakespasm does (sound/cdtracks/track002.ogg/track003.wav tracks etc.).
you see what i mean?i guess i didn't really make it too clear in my previous posts, so my fault, i guess.
is there a way i can use the nehquake engine to -play my own tracks without having to minimize the game everytime i start a new map, so i don't have to change to a different track on vlc or whatever?
i could play in a windowed mode, but i really prefer fullscreen mode.
Ah Yes

I see what you mean.
A built in playlist manager would be an awesome addition to any engine IMO. Especially gnarly Quakeworld engines. Though I could see it being a nice touch for an SP engine too. Would actually probably get used by a large proportion of users at some point.
Anyone Now About This Little Problem?
First token (/*) isn't a brace on line 8073
this is what quake error i get when running nehahra on nehquake.
i recently changed engines to see what dark places was like, then went back to nequake.
it's only when i try to load up my last quicksave that i get the above message.
i tried running it with DP one more time, and it loaded the quicksave fine, so the QS file is not corrupted.
i could continue the rest of the game with DP, but it looks/runs better on nehQuake.
anyone got any ideas/help for this one?
i tried looking around the net, but nothing came up.
Another Thing..
i was running it through the quake injector..
