QuakeForge Wishlist ------------------- This file contains a listing of features people would like to see in the QuakeForge engine. These are different than bugs in that not having them done will not affect the standard game as was playable before the initial source release or subsequent accepted standards. Those may be found in the file ERRATA. Note however that unlike the ERRATA file which contains issues that will be addressed as sonn as possible, we make no promises for things listed here. Do keep in mind however that many of these things we want ourselves so this file serves as a sort of to-do list. Ambush - v_idlescale and force_centerview can mess with MegaTF concussion effects - gl_polyblend 0 can undo a flash grenade effect - binary sanity check - MOVETYPE_FLY in QW - view offset in QW - Software skyboxes - full 256 colors for particles in QW - alpha particles - resizable dlights - GL fullbrights - Beams ala Half-Life - EFFECT bit for entities (ie smoke trail for player on fire) - lens flares - MIDI engine - 16 channel sound - ability to play stereo sounds (dedicated channel for that maybe?) - positional audio allowing eg rocket flybys - allow mp3 sounds to reduce pak sizes [cache them to wav's maybe?] - alpha textures - color mapping of models (eg for team colors) Attlee; Mathew Thomas - better setup screen (ie rotating player model) - multiple player profiles DarkAngel - 32 bit texture support - skeletal animations - larger console fonts - lens flares - better muzzle/weapon flashes - weapon model alpha - optimize flashblends if possible, possibly allow them to be made smaller - death anims that vary on how you die [this is a progs issue] - ability to bind modifier+key combos - better rocket/grenade trails - improve the GL particle system - more configurable sounds [progs issue] - model interpolation - landscape distance detail changes - BSP improvements, curves, animated textures, etc - Quake3ish quad/pent effect - Bounce pads - optimize graphics effects currently only doable with slow progs - status bar improvements - fix GL model mesh for "barely legal" models (perquake, old obsidian, etc) - standardise "speed jumping" [not sure of cause, very hard to fix] dependant on !something!, and works differently on different computers - improve sound engine behavior when too many sounds play at once Tonik - enhanced say and say_team editing - single player & coop support (when progs.dat source if released under GPL) - add match, powerups,... qw-server cvars - ffa and match support (progs) - crosshairfile ? - pause/fforward[/rewind] in demo playback - client(server)-side teamplay macros: $health, $armor, $loc... - timescale server cvar (easy for uquake, requires new protocol for qw) - TE_RAILTRAIL taniwha - Dud explosives (yeah, yeah, it's probably QC, but still...) djsmoke - scripting support additions; sleep/timer command, if statements, server - server type variables (mega-tf, teamfortress, deadlode, etc) - automatic map rotation, just specify multiple args on the map statement line and the server sets up the rotation. ie map - rcon_checkip [0/1] in config file, if 0 dont try to match, if 1 it will cause the server to compare the ip address of the person who sent the rcon command to a list of hosts specified in the below command. rcon_iplist ...
