ID Software <- well, no ID, no Quake. Simple. ================= * Type of Mod * ================= Quake C : yes Sound : NO MDL : yes(kinda, just a new skin) ======================= * Format of Quake C * ======================= unified diff : no context diff : no .qc files : no (they will be available in later versions, if you request them I'll give them to you, but the changes are not commented.) progs.dat : yes =============== * Game play * =============== Single Player: NO Deathmatch : YES Co-Op : SURE(no strong implementation yet though.) =========================== * Description of the Mod * =========================== The purpose of this mod is to help some of the newbies to learn to play better by teaching strategy not just getting lucky shots or having the better gun and gibbing someone who just spawned in. You are allowed 2 hits and on the third you get gibbed and the killer gets a frag. You will recieve a message when you are hit as well as the other players too. You can see how many hits you have using a designated impulse. ============= * Impulses * ============= impulse 33 = display how many hits you've taken. ======== * Bugs * ======== 1. The messages don't say the name of the player being hit just that something has been hit. will be fixed in a forthcoming version. This is the only one i have found if you find more please send mail to me (either address) with "LASER-BUG REPORT" in the subject(no "") ========== * Future * ========== 1. New weapons like a laser grenade 2. 3 different laser guns. slow, medium, fast for different skill levels 3. Maps 4. New skins or models for the gun + laser etc. ========= * Misc. * ========= If you run a server and want to use this patch please do and tell me where it is i would love to see it in action.
