Func_Msgboard: RemakeQuake

Posted by ijed on 2008/11/15 04:22:38

This is a thread about a project currently underway to remake Quake one.

It involves upgrading what exists already in order to play and look better or at least differently in all probable situations and enhance what is already there in this great game.

So we're remixing all the maps, monsters, and the player.

A specific engine in order to solve long-standing issues isn't out of the question, the main concerns being cross-OS support for features that should be common, like entity alpha and multiplayer. These things exist in various forms, but there's still no standard, at least today.

There's a great wealth of resource on this board - the one thing that doesn't exist here is apathy.

So, we're fishing for contributors. If you can make a map, animate or code and want to see this monster through to its conception then you're on the team.

Over the next few days I'll post info on what currently exists, and where it's headed.

Railgun

I saw the use of a railgun in RQ and was shattered by the rather clumpsy wrist thump that was used.
As I tried the spiral launch attack I might as well try the railgun also.

It hasn't yet been positioned so it might look too much in screen.

I don't have max installed at home (thanks Vista) so the new version is waiting until monday / tuesday.

In any case it is a different weapon, just with a similar place in the toolbox.

I was playing the old Quake ripoff Chasm: the Rift, where it has the ability to blow off enemies' limbs. Would something like this be possible in remakequake?

#380 posted by ijed on 2009/09/16 22:34:41

Was done for ragdoll Quake (can't remember the proper name) which was a MP DP mod with dismemberment that basically painted the walls and floor.

We decided to use Gyro (the same physics code it used) but avoid ragdoll / dismemberment.

We've talked back and forth about locational damage, but so far I'm not convinced we could have it without bloating the project another X decades beyond its sell by.

The problems are different animations, skins for each respective dismemberment / damage multiplied by the amount of dismemberable monsters and a completely reworked collision system (shot to legs = shot to legs).

We're with a very heavy workload already and still haven't even started alot of the monsters and have no finished monsters, although some of the base ones are close.

Now I remember his idea of the undead knight.

You ran too far!

Based purely from the shots, the first shot is nice, good change from the usual themes and the more finished version of the CTF map with the cracked hole is looking very nice.

2nd shot (dm2?) is kinda cheesy tho.

Cool

Make this a news post to get more attention.
