************************** * Title : RuCkUS v. 1.1 * ************************** Filename : ruckus.zip Version : 1.1 Date : 7/07/97 Author : daeMon- Chris Haggqvist Email : rhaggqvi@suffolk.lib.ny.us Web Page : http://www.geoxities.com/TimesSquare/Castle/1199 (ruckus homepage) http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Alley/2997 Credits : ID Software, Rene Post for Qme, Paint Shop Pro, and all the other quake-C mod authors, esp. Howard Roy, The Evolve Team, and Jamie Wood. Patches : Pistol v. 0.2 - It was the building block for RuCkUS, and had the pistol and triple-barrelled shotgun. It was my very first venture into QC. Weapons v. 0.3 - A newer addition to Pistol, Only one new addition: Sniper Rifle (No cool model) CarnagE v 1.0 - A multiplayer patch, similiar to FVF, with different classes and weapons. *************** * Type of Mod * *************** Quake C : yes Sound : yes MDL : yes (a bunch, every gun has a new skin. Some have new models) *********************** * Format of Quake C * *********************** unified diff : I don't know (no idea what the hell this is) context diff : I don't know (this either) .qc files : no progs.dat : yes ******************************* * Description of the Weapons * ******************************* This mod adds many new weapons that are very well balanced and work well in Deathmatch and Single Player. There are also a few little addins that just make the game more fun. I have added Shell Ejection from all shotguns, the pistol, and the sniper rifle; and all enemy bodies are gibbable (when they die you can rip apart their bodies), as are the crucified zombies. Also Grunts eject shells when firing their shotguns. Grunts, Enforcers, and Ogres can now shoot a shotgun, double-barrelled shotgun, nailgun, super nailgun, grenades, rockets, laser, explosive shotgun shells, and homing missiles. And now... THE WEAPONS: Crossbow: Star Launcher: Pistol: May not sound like much, but believe me, it's really useful. It fires almost twice as fast as a shotgun, but does half the damage. Very useful for finishing off a badly wounded enemy with a few quick shots. New Mdl: Yes, made by me New sounds: Yes, taken from DOOM pistol Qc: Done by me Triple-barrelled Shotgun: Love Shotguns? I sure do. This adds greatly, especially in Deathmatch. It fires a pellet spread nearly twice as big as a double Shotgun, and up close is a real killer. New Mdl: Yeah, I made it New Sounds: yes, taken from DOOM shotgun Qc: Made by me Sniper Rifle: Need some real Power? Then look no further! The Sniper Rifle packs a punch large enough to kill an unarmored Quake Player with one solid shot! It shoots one bullet capable of gibbing a player in one or maybe two hits. Only Downside: The reload time. 3 seconds. New Mdl: yes, made by BaldRidge(kerry@southwind.net) New Sounds: yes, and actually made by me! Qc: I done it Exploding Shells: As you know I like shotguns, and that's why I like these very cool shells. I got the idea from the Evolve Team's Patch PAINKEEP(very, very cool patch, BTW), I liked it so much I decided to make my own exploding shells. They are twice as powerful and that's why they use twice as many shells. There are exploding shell versions of the Shotgun, Double Shotgun, and the Triple Shotgun(sorry...No Pistol). New Mdl: Kind of(new skins for single, double and triple) New sounds: yes, (single and double sounds used with permission from Evolve Team) I made the triple sound. Qc: I did it Sprites: made by Evolve Team Riot Gun: Blaze Gun: A very cool little addition to the Nailgun, It shoots little flames out of the nailgun that can light dead bodies & living enemies on fire. It inflicts pain until the person dives into water. Very cool. This elite patch was made by Jonathon E. Wright(nelno@interpath.com) New Mdl: A new Nailgun Skin, made by me :-> New sounds: yes, by Jonathon Qc: all Qc(except for integrating it into my patch) was done by Jonathon E. Wright Pipebomb Launcher: Like Duke 3d? If you do then you are familiar with pipebombs. You shoot it out and then detonate it. You can fire out as many as you want and then detonate all of them at the same time. Very nice weapon. Especially for setting traps in Deathmatch! Oh yeah, Detonate Pipebombs by using Impulse 63. New Mdl: A new skin for grenade launcher, :) New sounds: No, soon Qc: all by me Flare Gun: In the dark? Shoot of a flare and it shall be light. Two types of flares: a grenade ball type and a flare that is shot into walls. Both are cool. The ball type does some damage on impact and the other flare sticks to the enemy and keeps them lit up! New Mdl: yes! :--) New sounds: not yet Qc: I did both Cluster Bomb Launcher: Shoot a grenade and it blows up into five grenades. Has to be cool! The initial grenade explodes on impact but the five others bounce around like normal grenades and then explode. COOL, Cool, cool addition to Deathmatch. New Mdl: New skin New sounds: Hopefully next release Qc: All my Programming power Nailbomb Launcher: Well, I liked the idea for the nailbomb in KQP, but no offense Howard, the way it worked really sucked.(I still love KQP though) So...I decided to make my own! And now it is actually cool! Well, anyways, it shoots nails in every direction. It is powerful enough for a few hits to take down a Shambler. Have Fun! New Mdl: New Grenade Launcher skin New sounds: Next time Qc: Idea from KQP, Qc from me LaserBomb Launcher: Nuke Launcher: A hugely powerful weapon! It can kill a Shambie in one explosion! After you shoot it, it arms and in five seconds... KKKAAAAAAAAAAAABBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!! Everyone in the radius is dead(large radius). Wastes 10 rockets, so use wisely! New Mdl: New skin, baby! New sounds: very soon(I almost have a mad cool Nuke Explode) Qc: Easily, and I do mean easily, done by me(someone who knows nada about Qc could make a Nuke) :} Homing Missile Launcher: Shoots Vore Homing Missiles that will home in on anny targets! It even tells what it has targeted! The Missile model is the Vore missile, and soon it will have a new explosion. Very cool in Single Player, and cool in DM. New Mdl: New skin New sounds: Nope Qc: Mine Exploding Ammo Boxes: With these around you better watch what ammo you pick up! You can drop nail boxes that when picked up... EXPLODE! Pick up some nails and drop one in their place, this weapon kills. Uses five Rockets and is a hell of a lot better than Explode Backpacks. New Mdl: Normal Nail Box New Sounds: No way man Qc: The work of daeMon All of these cool weapons are very useful in both DeathMatch and in Single Player. I took great care to make sure all of the weapons were balanced, and worked well in both DM and Single Player.
