Small Mod compilation

[Jimin]

New monsters and shell ejecting works fine for me. Maybe you have other mod files in your folder? Maybe have conflict.
I only use this mod and everything works. You can try it. I only use this file: Quake_V5.50_small-mod-compilation_Seven.pk3

Hi all.
Just few days ago i install SMC. Things like random skins, models or Demon/Souls appear and work fine but another like new monsters or shell ejecting are completely missing.
I try with changing several parameters but still missing.
Anyone can help me? please.

I found what I did wrong myself. You have to copy additional file for rain into maps folder. Its in the download subfolder.
It even adds rain and lightning sounds to the levels.

There are so many new things to discover with this mod. It makes the game much more intense and alive. Its amazing.
Thank you very much
I like!

I need help with this mod. I can see video clips and screens with rain and some spooky mist on the floor in the first map where the skill setting is. When I start Quake they are missing.
I read the mod instructions to open and edit the custom config file. I found this line: "cl_particles_rain" "1" near the top of the file. It says it enables rain in maps.
It is set to: 1 but the rain is not coming.

Everything else is working great so far!
Can someone help me? I use version 5.50 by the way. Do I need to update to 5.60 for the rain? if so, how?
Thanks in advance

I didn't realize you recompiled it so soon, I should visit here more often. Anyways, I have an issue with the darkplaces engine. Keeps telling me "sounds not precached, fix you code" whenever one of the custom sounds are played, such as footsteps. The blood also doesn't seam to work correctly and instead makes a.....well a "silhouette sculpture".

Hi Seven, I don't know the best place do message you, so I chose this one. I can't find "digs01 full Episode 9 maps with flames + impulse 12 + nails fixed.rar" anywhere on the forum. This was the only one I couldn't find from the list you posted here: http://quakeone.com/forum/quake-help...rkplaces/page4

Thanks

thats un-related to the small mod compilation... thats an issue with using webangel's animated_reflecting_overload addon:

I'm having some strange texture issues with the new release. The computers near the slip-gates in the intro area are just a plane white texture.

I see what you mean, thanks.

Hello Frost R17,

You can use different monster models/skins at the same time in your Quake maps. Max. 4 variations at a time for each monster type.

Furthermore you can set different properties for each monster type.
Here are some examples (available for all monster types individually):
demon_size (uses random sizes of this monster type in a map)
demon_size_influenced_health (depending on its size the monster has increased health)
demon_size_influenced_attack (depending on its size the monster has increased attack)
monster_random_skin_color_alteration (randomly tints the skin of this monster type a little)

You also have the possibility to adjust the monsters AI depending on your played/used skill setting (easy/normal/hard/nm) via these cvars:
skill_adjusted_soldier_aiming (the higher skill you play, the better the grunts/soldiers can aim (harder to dodge))
skill_adjusted_hellknight_projectile_homing (the higher skill you play, the more hellknights projectile are able to home the player)
skill_adjusted_wizard_projectile_homing (the higher skill you play, the more wizards/scrags projectile are able to home the player)
skill_adjusted_monster_rangedattack_frequence (the higher skill you play, the faster ranged attack monster will fire at you)

Then you have these cvars to adjust all monsters basic ability at once:
monster_run_animation_speed_factor (adjust the running/moving speed of monsters)
monster_rangedattack_animation_speed_factor (adjust the firing speed of ranged attack monsters)
monster_skip_pain_animation_chance (monsters will go less often into pain animation)


Beside these, the SMC also includes and can use alternative models for some monsters with unique properties/animations like:
dog
enforcers
demon/fiend
zombie

Kind regards,
Seven

Is there an option to change different model variations for each quake monster?

[Frost R17]

I managed to get it working, thanks.

Hi, is it possible to install/put a new player model file in id1/hipnotic/rogue folder to use with the small mod compilation? If so, how?

the answer is this line in your smc_config.cg:

set player_model 0 // Only works when cvar '3rd_person_visible_weapons' is disabled !!! 0= use player.mdl / h_player.mdl (=original Quake) 1= use player1.mdl / h_player1.mdl 2= use player2.mdl / h_player2.mdl 3= use player3.mdl / h_player3.mdl 4= use player4.mdl / h_player4.md

Hi Seven, thank you for the file. I have already started to adjust the settings.
Two problems I have in the moment. I can't find the setting for disabling the extra monsters.

Hello TR2N,
You just wrote that you downloaded the smc_config.cfg from my last post.
Why you ask how to disable extra monsters ? That smc_config.cfg already disabled them all. Just as you requested.

I want to have the game as faithful as possible. I just want some extra effects

There are many many of these kind of effects available in the SMC.
From blood/gore extensions over fire/flames to lots of environmental effects. As well as powerups, trails, mist, explosions, liquid splashes, etc.
You can enable/disable them all in that config file.

Also I am not able to add webangels light beams, because the file is somehow interfering with the SMC. My packages are some years old,

The SMC has all the prerequisites you need. We developed that light beams together with Nahuel and her at that time.
So, you should delete the progs.dat in that old version that you have. It will work automagically afterwards.
Just be sure to use the .ent files from that download and not any else.
Remember, you can only use 1 .ent file at a time. If you want to combine different .ent files you ca do it but you have to copy the blocks that you want manually.

I have to start from scratch to build my personal faithful Quake again.

Thank you for your continued support Seven! Your ideas and work you put in it is gorgeous!

That always helps to keep in shape, no ?
But you do not really need to rebuild everything. The SMC is still base for all available extensions. Updating to v5.60 will be enough.
Just be sure to delete all files from older versions.

ALL replacements (such as textures, models, sound, etc.) are completely independent to the SMC.
That is on purpose, as the SMC shall not interfere with your Quake setup and will work with all official maps as well as fan-made maps.

Have fun with your Quake,
Seven
