Electro and I had concocted an idea for using the Tomaz Quake version of the implementation of MOVETYPE_FOLLOW (The best one I have found so far (I didn't look at darkplaces much because it is scrambled and there is barely any reference) It would have worked well.

Awesome!
This particular chore is so far out of zone of expertise it could take me 2 weeks to do what you can do in 30 minutes or an hour.
I'll locate the models and post links to them in this thread.
I really want to see vwep become a standard modding feature in Quake, some of those Team Fortress guys holding Dox weapons look cool as hell.
My theory is that if it gets used and is "in your face" more in the Quake community it will spark additional interest and the imagination that comes with that.

sounds promising enough. I'm hoping a regular MegaTF server will have those vweps someday _________________

Hey Trickle, It'll probably be tomorrow before I post the weapon models and stuff. I'll have to look through and see what GPL model options are available and that'll take some time to sort through. Just a heads up! Maybe we get CSQC and vwep and all that great stuff accepted as standard in modding.
You and Avirox are like your very own R&D department!
Just curious, why aren't those models usable on standard Mega TF servers? The server operators don't want to change or something?

Ok ... sorry for the delay. If you could take this model (brigand.mdl) and make a vwep for him using the Dox g_rocketlauncher.mdl (or in fact any gun of your choice). He has an empty hand which the vwep would go into. He's an OpenQuartz player model clone, if you need the OpenQuartz player model to visualize the weapon here is that (openquartz_player.mdl). And doing either the brigand.mdl or the Open Quartz player model works, they are essentially the same.
Then I could do some vwep experimentation and maybe make an automated generator and it'll advance the cause of getting closer to an open source modding set for Quake.

sorry for the late response, I've been super busy lately. with all do respect though, I'd rather kick things off with original content..unless for the mod you plan to work on would fully utilize dox's rocket launcher as a v model as well. I can work on a gun too, I noticed with this specific player mdl..the frames are all in one set. so it might take a bit to do. I noticed this player model holds the gun the whole time, if there will be effort into a real mod..I will most definitely make a vwep for it!

I've got the same player model where Lardarse renamed all the frames somewhere.
Yeah you are right, I'd rather have a GPL gun ... I'll do some more looking around. I got frustrated not being able to find a good match.
But I'll find a GPL weapon and post back.

Just thought I'd dust this thread off in the hopes of seeing that program/script come to light : )
