Do you like medeval maps? Good Opensource Music? Varied Weapons. Lightning gun?

[Haeylleh]

Do you like varied map styles like the original Unreal Tournament including Medeval Maps? Good Opensource Music? Varied weapons some with moving parts (pistols)? A lightning gun?
Maybe try out chaosesque anthology. It's 4.7 gigabytes of that stuff.

ChaosEsque:Anthology Windows, Mac, Linux game - Mod DB

It's all opensource, all of the time, and Divverent suggested the name.
And based off (is a fork or mod of) of xonotic and nexuiz.










Remeber raiders of the lost arc (but in antartica)


Prefabs so you can build a map quickly:




(Also: 48 weapons, want to add more, hit a code wall... well a mental wall because I can't figure out how to extend it, but it has been said to be easy Beyond 48 weapons, help is needed. (Code help) (ChaosEsqueAnthology) (Xonotic Mod) | OpenGameArt.org )

[Syluxguy28O3]

well this intrigues me. ill be checking it out soon.

[Haeylleh]

This has been updated to version 42, which has various improvements and additions,
especially in the buildable building code area. You can build more stuff.
Download ChaosEsqueAnthology from SourceForge.net

Additionally the development environment has been release in convenient tar.gz format.
Someone should back that up:
chaosesque dev environment | SourceForge.net

Has the git repos etc.
(In the way that it exists on the dev's computers)

Update

Here's an update on the mod:
Greetings fellow gamers. Much has changed since the last news was posted.
ChaosEsque Anthology has now reached Release 43.

A new arena has been added for release, Island Sky Arena.
It is a hand to hand combat arena, but can also be used for melee weapon fights or capture the flag as-well.



The duengon of darkhold17 has gotten deeper, with new chambers of torment, caves, and prisons below.



Where monsters are concerned, there is now a greater variety of spiders, large and small.
Furthermore, skeletons wield various new melee weapons, which brings us to our next topic...


Various new weapons have been added. These include both ranged and melee alike.
In the ranged class there is now a 357 magnum and a .50 cal pistol.
In the melee class that which is new is a crowbar, yari, tetsubo, katana, odachi, nagamaki, and a sabre of light/plasma.



Flashbangs and smoke grenades were added as-well, in addition to regular off-handed grenades. Nuclear explosions create flashes of light which take time to diminish.

Building options have increased, allowing the player to build in anything from
iron beams to marble (over 20 colors / types thereof). Blocks can be flipped
via command, before building, roof blocks allow many shades to be selected,
stone blocks come in many styles to choose from. Commands to help the in-game
builder create his fortress the way he desires have been added (they are listed
in the commands menu).

Additionally Buildings can be built atop buildings if the player wishes, so towers can be created, or citadels can be built using tall foundations with walls and castles above. There are also bridges and outpost towers existing as options in the build system.

The server admin now has flexibility in setting building allowances: up to
and including complete freedom: no cost building, build anywhere (including
building blocks in DeathMatch maps), build quickly. These are check-boxes in
the menu system (but can also be set via variable in the server's config file)

Building a kingdom of heaven:






We hope you enjoy the new fighting and building options!

Updates:

New Release: 46.
Did a good deal of code having to do with doors and the buildable building code. You can now build doors. You can also teamlock doors you build or doors that come with buildings you build. Also in the code you can directly set door trigger mins/maxs and set doors to open for less things than normaly they would (ie: only players/bots/ and monsters, not just anything that moves). Some new commands have also been added: lock, unlock, softlock, hardlock, multitool placetype and multitool buildingsnap. Placetype allows you to switch from building where you are standing to building where you are looking forward a little bit. Buildingsnap allows you to have building snap to 64qunits like blocks if you wish.

New Buildables -Wood Door -Steel Door -Wood Paneled Door -Glass Door Ability to teamlock doors on buildable buildings. Misc improvements.

Release 47:

New Buildables:
-Metal Drum
-Gasoline Drum
-Explosive Charge
-FireSupression station (Misc random building mutator will build Fire suppression stations in addition to all the other building it builds)
Added variable for vehicles so that when set when they are placed the traceline collides: movetype_normal (default is worldonly) Exploding gasoline drums ignight nearby trees (and wooden buildings) Explosive charges blow the trees up. Enjoy!

I found when uploading to sourceforge I would get disconnects, now I reset all my routers before uploading and it works. The file is over 4GB. 32bits can only address so many bits, I wonder if it was some counter on one of the routers that was stoping me?

I hope you were able to download

[Haeylleh]

Did you find a way to surpass your weapon limitation?

Yes, Divverent helped me and taught me how to do it.

Here is the file with the code that made it happen:
SourceForge - chaosesqueanthology/xonotic-data.pk3dir/blob - qcsrc/common/items.qh

At the end of this file is the conversation where he taught me:
SourceForge - chaosesqueanthology/xonotic-data.pk3dir/blob - qcsrc/common/someinformationabout_items_qh.txt

Note: this doesn't quite work with fteqcc anymore. It should but there are bugs in fteqcc that mess up the weapset bits when you throw down some weaps.

So the build proccess is this: compile with both to make sure we didn't hit any bugs (fteqcc catches bugs gmqcc does not). Usually compiling with gmqcc when coding, bugfixing etc, but a final test compile to make sure there are no bugs (this happens alot, so it's important to do: like did I accidently use a internal global var (gmqcc won't catch this, fteqcc will catch reserved variable use and stop compile)

make clean between each time we switch compilers.
Once we are bug free. Then again.
If changes to the menu were made, compile with fteqcc, because gmqcc (atleast the version we're using) doesn't do multi-lingual languages for somereason. Copy /menu.dat
to somewhere. Make clean.
Compile with gmqcc.
Copy fteqcc's menu.dat back over.

(So most code is gmqcc, the menu is fteqcc)

Make the pk3s etc.
and all that.

[Haeylleh]

Here is the discussion where he taught me (he allows this to be redistributed):

118 IRC discussion about weapset, you can keep adding them, just follow the pattern:
119 03:43 <divVerent> it is possible to extend the bitshift code, but I
120 won't
121 03:43 <divVerent> it's a lot of work
122 03:43 <divVerent> trivial work, but any typo will break it horribly
123 03:43 <divVerent> just change any part that handles _x and _y to also
124 handle _z
125 03:44 <divVerent> but beware, this is typo hell. Any typo you make,
126 and it'll explode.
127 08:36 <irrilichdemon> I don't really understand how to
128 08:36 <irrilichdemon>
129 SourceForge - chaosesqueanthology/xonotic-data.pk3dir/blob - qcsrc/common/items.qh
130 08:36 <irrilichdemon> would something like this:
131 08:36 <irrilichdemon> 145 # define WEPSET_OP1_EE(a,b,mergeop,x)
132 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons) mergeop ((a)._WS2_weapons x
133 (b)._WS2_weapons))
134 08:36 <irrilichdemon> 146 # define WEPSET_OP2_EE(a,b,mergeop,x,y)
135 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons y (a)._WS1_weapons) mergeop
136 ((a)._WS2_weapons x (b)._WS2_weapons y (a)._WS2_weapons))
137 08:36 <irrilichdemon>
138 08:36 <irrilichdemon> change to something like this:
139 08:37 <irrilichdemon> 145 # define WEPSET_OP1_EE(a,b,c,mergeop,x)
140 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons) mergeop ((a)._WS2_weapons x
141 (b)._WS2_weapons))
142 08:37 <irrilichdemon> 146 # define WEPSET_OP2_EE(a,b,mergeop,x,y)
143 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons y (a)._WS1_weapons) mergeop
144 ((a)._WS2_weapons x (b)._WS2_weapons y (a)._WS2_weapons))
145 08:37 <irrilichdemon> 147 # define WEPSET_OP3_EE(a,b,c,mergeop,x,y,z)
146 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons y (b)._WS1_weapons z
147 (a)._WS1_weapons) mergeop ((a)._WS2_weapons x (b)._WS2_weapons y
148 (c)._WS2_weapons z (a)._WS2_weapons))
149 08:45 <irrilichdemon>
150 08:45 <irrilichdemon> or should it be like:
151 08:46 <divVerent> no, you only change the right side
152 08:46 <divVerent> one example
153 08:46 <divVerent> \# define WEPSET_OP1_EE(a,b,mergeop,x)
154 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons) mergeop ((a)._WS2_weapons x
155 (b)._WS2_weapons))
156 08:46 <divVerent> becomes
157 08:47 <divVerent> # define WEPSET_OP1_EE(a,b,mergeop,x)
158 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons) mergeop ((a)._WS2_weapons x
159 (b)._WS2_weapons) mergeop ((a)._WS3_weapons x (b)._WS3_weapons))
160 08:47 <divVerent> and yes, this way 72 isn't even the final limit -
161 you can add as many _WS*_weapons as you want that way
162 08:47 <divVerent> but it's horrible to do this for all those macros
163 08:47 <divVerent> at least you only need to work on the "abstract
164 group" of the macros, i.e. the top
165 08:47 <irrilichdemon> It's like coding perl
166 08:47 <divVerent> not on the individual operations at the bottom
167 08:48 <divVerent> but really
168 08:48 <divVerent> switch to gmqcc already
169 08:48 <divVerent> you're spending a lot of work to maintain legacy crap
170 08:48 <irrilichdemon> it won't compile the language stuff on my
171 version of xonotic qc
172 08:48 <divVerent> not even with -std=fteqcc?
173 08:48 <irrilichdemon> russian etc only displays if compiled with fteqcc
174 08:48 <divVerent> that's a bug and the gmqcc authors may want to fix
175 that
176 08:49 <divVerent> how did you put russian chars in the source?
177 08:49 <divVerent> gmqcc expects UTF-8
178 08:49 <irrilichdemon> I didn't, but there is a translation file
179 08:49 <divVerent> that should work just fine
180 08:49 <irrilichdemon> it just doesn't work with gmqcc
181 08:49 <divVerent> as long as you _("mark") your strings
182 08:49 <divVerent> does it also break for other languages?
183 08:50 <irrilichdemon> yes
184 08:50 <irrilichdemon> spanish doesn't work either
185 08:50 <divVerent> prvm_language dump
186 08:50 <divVerent> restart
187 08:50 <divVerent> will it write a working .pot file?
188 08:50 <irrilichdemon> I'm guessing no
189 08:50 <divVerent> something's broken in your source if that happens,
190 but that really needs fixing in gmqcc
191 08:50 <irrilichdemon> I need to stick with the source I have tho,
192 because I really can't keep up with samual
193 08:51 <irrilichdemon> staying with a stable "stack" lets me add new
194 features and fix crashes
195 08:51 <divVerent> I'd really recommend AT LEAST taking over the weapon
196 set stuff
197 08:51 <divVerent> except if you really want to stick with this because
198 it can be made to go even beyond 72
199 08:51 <divVerent> wepset has an absolute limit of 72, but is way nicer
200 code
201 08:51 <divVerent> as it uses the vector type
202 08:51 <irrilichdemon> yea, I'd like to go beyond 72 some day
203 08:51 <irrilichdemon> I wen't from 18 to 48 in a year and a half
204 08:51 <divVerent> then keep your macros
205 08:52 <divVerent> but you maintain them, I won't
206 08:52 <divVerent> at least I gave you an example... apply that to all
207 the others and it should work
208 08:52 <divVerent> do a single typo, and it'll fail horribly
209 08:52 <irrilichdemon> is it ok if I post this macro info to a public
210 file?
211 08:52 <divVerent> sure, but I won't verify it all
212 08:52 <irrilichdemon> ok, thanks
213 08:52 <divVerent> it's hard to even check them
214 08:52 <divVerent> that's the main reason it got killed
215 08:52 <irrilichdemon> one more question about them
216 08:52 <divVerent> it's REALLY bad code
217 08:53 <irrilichdemon> at least you only need to work on the "abstract
218 group" of the macros, i.e. the top
219 08:53 <irrilichdemon> do I just change
220 08:53 <divVerent> I don't have the code in front of me
221 08:54 <divVerent> ah, see it
222 08:54 <divVerent> I meant from:
223 08:54 <divVerent> # define WEP_MAXCOUNT 48
224 08:54 <divVerent> to
225 08:54 <divVerent> # define WEPSET_OP2_AW(a,b,mergeop,x,y) ((_WS1_##a x
226 WEPSET_BIT1(b) y _WS1_##a) mergeop (_WS2_##a x WEPSET_BIT2(b) y
227 _WS2_##a))
228 08:55 <irrilichdemon> lines: 146, 148, 150, 152, 154, and 156?
229 08:55 <divVerent> while this COPY, EQ, OR .. doesn't need touching
230 08:55 <divVerent> sorry, I have no line numbers here
231 08:55 <divVerent> but I'd assume almost all lines from the first to
232 the last I quoted need changing
233 08:55 <irrilichdemon> 145 is:
234 08:55 <irrilichdemon> 145 # define WEPSET_OP1_EE(a,b,mergeop,x)
235 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons) mergeop ((a)._WS2_weapons x
236 (b)._WS2_weapons))
237 08:55 <divVerent> sure needs changfing the way I told you
238 08:55 <irrilichdemon> 146 is
239 08:55 <irrilichdemon> 146 # define WEPSET_OP2_EE(a,b,mergeop,x,y)
240 (((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons y (a)._WS1_weapons) mergeop
241 ((a)._WS2_weapons x (b)._WS2_weapons y (a)._WS2_weapons))
242 08:55 <divVerent> same change needed
243 08:56 <divVerent> the mergeop ...WS2... stuff needs to be copied to
244 the end and become a mergeop ...WS3...
245 08:56 <divVerent> that'll be a very long line
246 08:56 <divVerent> # define WEPSET_DECLARE_A(a) float
247 _WS1_##a, _WS2_##a
248 08:56 <divVerent> even this needs changing
249 08:57 <irrilichdemon> ok let me try a triad... brb a few min trying
250 08:57 <divVerent> to add a _WS3_##a
251 08:57 <divVerent> # define WEPSET_ADDSTAT()
252 addstat(STAT_WEAPONS, AS_INT, _WS1_weapons); addstat(STAT_WEAPONS2,
253 AS_INT, _WS2_weapons)
254 08:57 <divVerent> and this will need a new STAT_WEAPONS3
255 08:59 <divVerent> oh, the lines with the power2of stuff needs to be
256 handled a bit different
257 09:00 <divVerent> copy it to make a third one of these
258 09:00 <divVerent> but that should be obvious
259 09:01 <irrilichdemon> 145 # define WEPSET_OP1_EE(a,b,mergeop,x)
260 ((((a)._WS1_weapons x (b)._WS1_weapons) mergeop ((a)._WS2_weapons x

299 09:48 <divVerent> haha, that code was missed
300 09:48 <divVerent> that needs rewriting
301 09:48 <divVerent> the *= 2 part simply cannot work
302 09:53 <divVerent> wait, no
303 09:53 <divVerent> these are ammo types, not weapons
304 09:55 <divVerent> your code looks roughly ok, but won't verify it
305 totally
306 09:55 <irrilichdemon> it compiles
307 09:55 <irrilichdemon> seems to run fine with up to 48 weapons
308 09:56 <irrilichdemon> ima add a 49th, and I'm sure CSQC will crash
309 09:56 <irrilichdemon> as is tradition
310 09:56 <irrilichdemon> in that for(i = 0, j = 1; i < 24; code
311 09:57 <irrilichdemon> on gmqcc all was fine
312 09:57 <irrilichdemon> but in fteqcc
313 09:57 <irrilichdemon> if you threw your 48th weapon
314 09:57 <irrilichdemon> your playermodel dissappeared
315 09:57 <irrilichdemon> I had to make it so you don't throw any ammo
316 with that particular weapon
317 09:57 <irrilichdemon> now you don't dissapear
318 09:58 <irrilichdemon> gave an "incorrect model index"
319 09:58 <irrilichdemon> but... if I want ammo using weapons above 47,
320 ... what should I do
321 09:58 <irrilichdemon> is for(i = 0, j = 1; i < 24; ++i, j *= 2; i <
322 48; ++i, j *= 3) the right way to go?
323 09:58 * irrilichdemon tests additional 49th weapon...
324 10:07 <divVerent> oh, this is just for number of item types
325 10:07 <divVerent> this loop only needs 24
326 10:07 <divVerent> as weapons don't count as items
327 10:07 <divVerent> this specific loop even only cares for ammo types

Release 48:
Some more weapons for you and some perfomance improvements perhaps.
New Weapons: AK-47, RPG7
RPG7 will ignite things (trees etc) sometimes (not often but sometimes)
LOD models used more for vehicles to speed things up
(complex vehicles stay at lod1 more than lod0 now)
Specifically the fokker tri-plane, blackhawk heli, the sports cars, yugo car, etc
Various bugfixes.

New version 50.

Added AKS-74u and Tokarev pistol.

Worked on LOD2 models alot.

Now all the WW1 biplanes / triplanes have LOD2 models (ie the thrid level of detail model) aswell as the yugo.

Also new option in advanced menu to switch teamspawns and switch team bases.

This can be useful when using CTF maps from, say, UrbanTerror as the things seem to be switched.

Those LOD2 models took along time to do, it seems to give improvement (alot) on my machine.

Also worked on making them used more, only when you get right up close do the lod1 and then lod0 (normal) model are used.

Enjoy!
