-------------------QJoe v.2.0--------------------- by: Joe Sola with help+ideas from: Tom Shallon -------------------------------------------------- Features: Killer Heads!!! -------------------------------------------------- Description: Every so often, you turn into a killer head when you die that can run around, bite, pick-up health, invulnerability, and Quad-Damage. If you find an "Instant Body" box, you are teleported back to the start with your original body. If you arent a head when you pick one of these up, it just gives you some armor. Also has a seperate sub-routine called "MakeHead" that will turn an enemy into a head (use in place of ThrowHead, it works about the same) that does everything that the original enemy did. This stuff isnt really used here, but it shouldnt be too hard to get it to work. In the future i will make it so that all the enemies can do is bite you, since its kind of strange having a killer grunt-head firing at you with a shotgun that you cant see... i guess im just too lazy to figure it out :) * * *IMPORTANT* * * The file "INSTBODY.MDL" (dont worry, its included) must be in this directory: [drive]:\[quake directory]\QJOE Otherwise you will get a "file INSTBODY.MDL not PreCached" error * * * * * * * * * * -------------------------------------------------- Being a Killer head: Basically just run around, and try to bite people. you are a LOT smaller, and sometimes you have to jump into teleporters instead of just walking into 'em. Bring up the console and type IMPULSE 50 to use your teeth when you are not a head. If you are tired of being a head, find an Instant Body box, which takes the place of the small armor, to be turned back into your normal self. Pros- A second chance after you die cool biting feature a lot smaller. come on, whats cooler than being a disembodied head?!?!?! Cons- low health not able to use weapons not able to pick up armor or invisibility a lot smaller. Sometimes this wont help, like when you get stuck in small areas -------------------------------------------------------- Revisions: *v.2.0* -Microscopic changes. No one will probably notice them *v.1.9* -Added "Instant Body" Boxes *v.1.4* -Ability to use your teeth when you are not a head -Fixed error when using Weapon Cycling *v.1.3* -Head now lights up, so people cannot sit in shadows all the time -Various bugs fixed *v.1.0* -Biting subroutine added -Fixed problem with weapons -Make that fixed a LOT of problems with weapons -Removed a lot of stuff that had nothing to do with killer heads *v.0.8* -Person can now turn into a killer head -Finished up the MakeHead routine *v.0.5* -Made MakeHead routine *v.0.0* -Somehow found out how to make enemies turn into killer heads when they die... Was just messing around with the code, and i stumbled onto it... a dog jumped at me, exploded, and then its head started chasing me around :) ---------------------------------------------------- Bugs: >Sometimes you will fall thru the floor when you die >Running up stairs makes you look through the floor >Getting stuck in the wall... use the KILL command to fix this >Instant body boxes dont go away after you pick them up. >Some other stuff... not much though ---------------------------------------------------- Legal Shtuff hmmm... im not a lawyer... so ill make this short and to the point You may modify this patch, or use it as a base for a different patch, as long as you let me know you are doing it, you put my name in your documentation, and also that I get a copy of it [i like to check out patches].
