Good work yvt, looks good. Some good ideas in here as well to add onto next versions.
I think the current issue is the advantages some players may get using the regular game without Openspades, as aiming is much more fast/precise, grenade throwing distance etc. Absolutely loving it so far though
OpenSpades introduction
guess I was wrong, sorry
After playing I think a few possible changes can be made to improve on this:
- Grenades to be thrown a bit further (I believe they go further if you're playing the regular version)
- When running and suddenly aiming or moving side to side, the aim is blocked by the gun model (the iron sights), this perhaps could be fixed or improved so you can aim faster, it seems a little slow to move out of the way, just my opinion though.
- Killfeed and chat should be separated, perhaps put the killfeed up top like usual
- Allow more server colours to be used such as red, blue etc
- Allow other characters to be used, such as "|"
- Add tracers (Just thought of this one)
Also as a question, what are the advantages/disadvantages of gameplay between this version and the regular version? In the original I believe due to the quicker aiming (As the iron sights don't get in the way), you can pretty much get a shot faster?
And I think in the original the grenades go further. These differences are minor but when playing in game I think the people with the original version are slightly more at an advantage.
Just some thoughts and opinions, hope it helps - Great stuff, so fun playing on this.

Besides what you said there is not much disadvantage
Yeah I think there just needs some slight tweaking to make it more like the regular version in those aspects. Other than that, wow. Really.
Dream come true ;_;

Anyhow, right now I'm trying to write a global illumination algorithm. So far I only have local illumination right now, and it doesn't write the map data yet, but oh well.
You can use mods in this yes. Just check Resources/Models and Resources/Gfx for like Sights etc.
Those of you who are having issues with the aiming because the iron sight gets in the way when strafing or running, check this.

I basically made a kv6 mod to lower the rifle a block down, so it looks exactly the same just lower, also shorted the player arm so because of the rifle being lower, it isn't holding it at an awkwardly high position.
Hope this helps for the time being.

Well I've got another question.
Is there a way to set up a mod or edit OpenSpades to have an exact replica of Ace of Spades 0.75 (As in nothing buffed or anything done to it) except with the Openspades graphics and flash light added in?

Isn't it already that way?

Also, the .pak files are just zip files in disguise. yvt, do you mind just renaming them to .zip files instead?
EDIT: Just found something nifty. If you set AA to "FXAA", it does the antialiasing in a shader, which is good if you don't have MSAA support.

It took me over 2 hours to get this to compile on Windows using MinGW. There was hack upon hack to make it even compile. Please for the love of god get rid of autoconf. I had to edit every generated file by hand to get it to even make a Makefile then I had to edit the Makefile because the hacks I did made it not add the SDL and GLEW flags.
^^^^^^^
That, very much that. A comprehensive explanation on how to compile it on Windows would be much appreciated. Also moving to cmake or something like that would be awesome.
