Similar to the original, Ammo appears at all times while Weapons only appear when the player picks them up. The Ammo counters and Weapon information (the bar listing the Weapons the player currently has) have been moved to the side of the screen.
#Quake pro crosshair code#
The game's net code has been changed around entirely due to a previously incorrect assumption that most people would have a latency under 200ms, which is the time it takes for the client to receive information from the server.However, due to the large number of changes many people consider this game to be different from the vanilla Quake. This latter engine is referred to as GLQuakeWorld.Īs the game still calls on the data of Quake, it is required for players to have the retail version of the game. However, an alternative source port exists that is a derivative of the GLQuake engine that makes the same changes. Though the original executables were written for DOS, they were kept up to date with the WinQuake source port and therefore the final release 2.33-005 can be seen as a derivative of that engine. As this is the actual gameplay portion of the source port, this will be the one addressed when referring to differences from this engine to WinQuake or GLQuake. The player starts the game on the Console and may type the Command Connect with the value referring to an IP Address (which is given to them either by having it given to them by the administrator or from an online server list) to enter the game. Other players may enter the server at any time if they are running the client program. The administrator may type Console Commands into this program to change maps or otherwise manage the server. The server program initializes a server upon startup, allowing for a quick and automatic setup for a dedicated server running Introduction. There are two programs that must be downloaded individually, one for the client and one for the server. While John Carmack had plans to bring back support, it was never completed and therefore only used for Multiplayer purposes. Single Player or Cooperative games are not supported by this source port. As major changes were made to the engine the programmer, John Carmack, decided to separate the two engines so that neither interfered with the other's code (which could possibly otherwise cause conflict with the Single Player game).
