  • ChaosEsque Anthology



    ChaosEsque Anthology is a first person shooter. It is a standalone modification of Xonotic which includes extended weapons, maps, vehicles, buildable buildings, mounted weapons, spell casting, monsters, player characters, textures, and game modes.

    It has over 100 maps. Some are futuristic, some are ancient, and some are medieval. A few evoke platform games such as sonic, others follow a style more akin to diablo. Some are static maps, others are randomly connected.

    There is something to fit your mood. There are mutators that can add mounted weapons in any map, buildings, monsters, foliage, hazards, and even balloons and bumpers. You can fight with futuristic weapons, medieval weapons, and /or hand to hand combat (over 111 weapons). There are also many vehicles (and a mutator to spawn them in maps that do not have them, as is tradition (as you can see)).

    You can also set each team to start with different specific weapons if you want to test a theory that you could defeat a well equipped military force with your bolt action rifle or crossbow. Same with vehicles and mounted weapons spawning (you can set which spawn near which team in CTF etc). You can drink wine, potions, learn magic, read scrolls, so on and so forth.

    The goal, and much of this has been reached, is to not limit the player.

    v90 has been released:
    4 new weapons. Building improvements. Misc fixes and improvements.

    New weapons:
    Crypistol (energy pistol)
    SportShotgun (5 shot semi-automatic shotgun)
    SpikedFlail (3 small spikeball chain flail)
    ShootingStar (1 large spikeball on chain flail)

    Flails have a 2/3rds chance of deflecting through even when blocked: if so they do 1/3rd damage.
    If too close to person flail will do 1/2 damage (above applies aswell so can be 1/6th)
    Flails also have longer windup time than other melee weapons.
    Thus they have some things to master in them, but if someone is blocking every swing of your sword with their quaterstaff or their sword, you now have an option to get around them.

    Pumpshotgun and SportShotgun now have changeable chokes (F+R keys).
    Pumpshotgun: tight, open, duckbill.
    SportShotgun: tight, open, restrictive.

    You can now allow the building of "claimstones", which act like garrisons but only for furniature and blocks and do not lockdown land.
    You can also set built beds to create a spawn point.
    (These options are in the startweapons menu with the rest of the buildable options)
    Thus you can allow people to build appartments without having to build a town to start, if you wish.

    Various other changes.

    If you are updating from version 89, these are the packages you want to update:
    428M Jun 26 06:25 zzzzzz999999_xmod-chaos-esque-xonotic-full_source_and_exec_binaries.pk3
    56M Jun 17 00:42 z9_buildable_buildings.pk3
    149M May 19 14:09 zz99-xmod-chaos-esque-xonotic-map_resources.pk3
    (they go in the Xonoticbla/data/ directory as always)

    The .ASC signature is up too, you know where.


    There are now 112 weapons in total in the game.
    (including 48 medieval weapons )

    Enjoy.

      Note: Quake One maps will work in chaosesque. Each time one is discovered that won't load quakeC code is added to add whatever entity was missing.



      Note: The supplemental DVD ("DVD2") includes the QRP textures so everything will show up correctly.

        There are mutators where you can:
        Spawn extra weapons randomly in the map (these can be energy, modern, medieval etc, you decide)
        Replace all weapons in a map (with modern, futuristic, medieval etc).
        Randomly Spawn in spikes, bumpers, baloons.



        (also rocks, tanktraps, etc)

        A foliage system that can add life to any map.



        A city generation system that can add buildings to any map.
        (Can generate depressing concrete cities, lively futuristic, nostalgic medeval, or sim-city like cities, all this can be mixed, everything has interiors with you can fill with furniture and lock down with doors if you wish)






        There are also added vehicles (such as tanks, cars, helicopters,etc), mounted guns, monsters, etc etc.




        There is an inventory system and a building system (think both RTS game and minecraft: you can build full buildings, or blocks and furnishings)






        Additionally there is spell casting and the like.


        And, ofcourse, Nuclear Munitions, if you wish to spawn them in:



        There are 112 weapons in total
        (including 48 medieval weapons)

        The game includes over 100 maps. Everything is free, libre, and opensource.

Hundreds of girls have gone off in boys' clothes and tried to pass themselves off as boys and enlist as volunteers, and several have got through, since the medical examination is only a negligible formality required in one place, forgotten in another.

                    Release 99: New weapons: ChauChat, Sho-Sho (30-06 version), BAR-1918, Nagant M1895.
                    New buildables: Large Chest (wooden).

                    This release adds 4 new world war I weapons to the game: The french ChauChat,
                    The 30-06 version fielded by the American army nicknamed the Sho-Sho (which was horribly unreliable),
                    the 1918 version of the Browning Automatic Rifle, and the Russian Officer's pistol:
                    The 1895 double action model of the Nagant revolver.

                    The ChauChat and Sho-Sho can jam hard after enough bullets are fired through them
                    and the aluminium (al-uuuu-min-eye-um) heat jacket expands inside. This is coded into the
                    game code, so be careful. Additionally to that short over heatings and jammings can occur aswell,
                    especially with the 30-06 version.

                    Enjoy!

                      WTF! you have done all this excellent work and not one person has participated in your thread? Quakeone is a completely bullshit place to share your work, far too often. I'm sorry no one has supported you. Keep up the good work! I'll pop in from time to time to give you support.

                            I noticed that and was confused when I realized both threads were being maintained.However, this is still good stuff worthy of some recognition and support. IMO, this is arguably the most awesome thing currently running...(except maybe AD 1.5)

                              There is a lot of cool stuff here. I think the problem is, as I've mentioned before, the Quake community typically likes simplistic quake-style stuff that doesn't deviate too far from the original. Which is totally retarded to a degree... "I wish there was more new stuff! But wait, that doesn't look like good old Quake at all!"

                              I hope you're sharing this mod in other areas too, like ModDB and what not. It's next to impossible to impress anyone around here with non-quake stuff. Spend thousands of hours on new content, and it gets forgotten as soon as someone makes a 512x512 rendition of an old 128x128 quake texture.

                              keep up the good work though
