Qrack BETA release

[R00k]

Qrack 1.7x BETA release...

DOWNLOAD : http://www.quakeone.com/qrack/glQrack.exe

this release is JUST the .exe, and it's a BETA; which means its not complete, (i still have to write some documentation...). But I really wanted to update so people dont get bored...

What's New:
================================================== =========
FIXED: cl_gun_fovscale with .md3 viewmodels.

Added TEST on serverlist to show players currently online in the Menu

For MM2 messages if a player doesnt have a .loc definition for that point
instead of 'somewhere' the origin is printed to the console, where other players
using Qrack can parse the actual numbers and print the proper loc definition.

Fixed GL_POLYBLEND 1 with R_BLOOM 1

Added command CONDUMP, dumps console buffer to condump.txt

Fixed decals at distance fade color
(started at 1.0 alpha value then faded, instead of distance alpha->fade)

Added internal .loc file maker/editor with in game outlined boxes showing the
location definitions.

New cvars:
loc_deletecurrent: Erases current selected location.
loc_clear: Erase ALL location definitions.
loc_reload: Reload current .loc file.
loc_save: Save current location
loc_startpoint
loc_endpoint "locname"
r_drawlocs
1: shows current area
2: shows all defined locs

show_locnames (0/1/2), prints the location name and origin on the statusbar

Added UnAlias and UnAliasAll commands
Changed behavior of Alias command,
typing alias with no parameter shows a list of all aliases
typing alias aliasname (without a value) edits the alias value.

Changed Behavior of Bind,
whereas typing bind x (with previous bound value), edits the key value.

Main Menu is presented by default on loadup instead of the console

cannot see through lava with r_wateralpha < 1

added gl_rain to toggle a rainy quake day

I specifically added that for you f0qer! I swear you said u didnt like DP cause it allowed for clear lava textures! gotta find that post

oh it was scarecrow...

Im glad for this, lava is an opaque dense liquid....

[Mindf!3ldzX]

why would you want to see through lava anyway? for one, no ones going to hang out in it ! for two, if theres a pack in it, its not worth going for unless its like 99rl ammo.

Post of the day!

here's a screen shot of the "already fixed" gl_rain...

[foq]

Maybe make the see through lava toggleable?

[R00k]

Surely! no reason to force an option on someone if its not considered a cheat...

how about this...

gl_lavaalpha ? default = wateralpha, like normal quake and otherwise u can set it as u like.

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? It's raining?! That's pretty badass

So can I still crash qrack users by mm2ing "LOC=111,111,1a1"?

[R00k]

lol, no, it would be interpreted as "Canadian*Sniper: Look at me! I'm using chase active!"

The parser would ignore the letter 'a' in the string, and just spit out the location instead.

I want rain on my BSP levels! How can we add this effect R00k?

[Canadian*Sniper]

haha rook's a funny guy Don't remind me of those times!!!

Baron: hah, you're using chase active
C*S:
/me starts freaking out

Good times really

I want rain on my BSP levels! How can we add this effect R00k?

My rain code scans surfaces for SURF_DRAWSKY, when found it then finds the midpoint of each poly, and creates a point, by which it randomizes a "spray" that drops a rain particle. So, aslong as your map has SURF_DRAWSKY it will find it

[=peg=]

good work on the rain/locs/test stuff! i like it

ping in scoreboard is still slighly messed up sometimes.. and on closing down (quiting) it crashes :/
