6 Degrees of Freedom Quake
Hypersonic has done something that to the best of my knowledge has never been seen in Quake. The implications of this body of work (he did this both with DarkPlaces and FitzQuake using engine modification and QuakeC modification) are potentially quite large although not immediately obvious to the casual observer. Have you ever played a Quake mod where you could be upside-down? You haven't.
Hypersonic has added 3D mouse support (a special type of mouse), the ability to navigate maps like a flight simulator using yaw, pitch and roll. Equivalent keyboard controls appear to exist as well.
Things like camping on the ceiling with anti-gravity, walking on walls or true 3D navigable vehicles in Quake may be possible now. Read more ...
