 Entity File

Does anyone have an entity file for SOE (for Radiant or WorldCraft)?
 Jago
#9 posted by Zwiffle [69.210.83.67] on 2005/07/15 11:08:30
I think you set the entities normally according to the list, then just test it under SoE, and the monsters get converted normally. Not sure, but that's what I'm going by, otherwise I'm sure a .ent file would've been supplied as well.
 Hmm....
#10 posted by Jago [85.76.178.7] on 2005/07/15 11:56:33
I downloaded and installed SOE. Looking good so far, but for some reason the game crashed on me in the 2nd map (Devil's Pass?) with some QC error.

We had repeated reports of that bug, but we were never able to determine what caused it. I had another version of the BSP with the cutscene which causes that crash removed, which I sent to users who had that problem. If you like I can poke around and see if I still have it, or, for a quicker solution, once you get to the area with pillars and a teleport destination, simply noclip to the left through the wooden bars rather than going the non-barred route to the right.
 An Abbreviated Version Of The SoE Entities
#13 posted by Tronyn [70.64.188.107] on 2005/07/15 16:17:03
MISCELLANEOUS:
func_exploder - creates explosions.
func_spawn and func_spawn_small - a much better way of spawning items and enemies.
misc_corpse - a corpse.
misc_explobox - replaced with a medieval barrel
misc_meat - a pile of gibs. doggies like it.
misc_tree - set a key 'cnt.' the values 0, 1, or 2 set the type of tree.
NEW ITEMS:
item_artifact_empathy_shields - empathy shields
item_dragon - summons a dragon to fight for you, in SP or DM. A modification of the Horn of Conjuring from Scourge.
MONSTER CHANGES:
grunts and enforcers are automatically replaced by corresponding types of Goblins.
fiends, vores and shamblers can be switched from light skins to dark skins by setting the "skin" key to 1. A shambler can be given explosive attacks by setting spawnflag 2 (value 4).
monster_knight - some will randomly be tougher with modified skins.
monster_hell_knight - spawnflag 2 (value 4) gives him more health and the fireball attack; skins are 0)silver 1)hell lord 2)bane
monster_wizard - unless 'skin' is set to '1', you will get a "drake" - Rescoe's green skin. setting skin to 1 returns to default skin.
NEW MONSTERS::
monster_axeman - set a key 'skin' and choose a value - 0) default 2) thug 3) ogre 4) zombie (latter two are unused).
monster_acolyte - the least powerful magician
monster_sorceror - mid-level magician
monster_warlock - a very nasty magician
monster_trogboss - the end boss as seen in soe2m5
monster_troglodyte - a 'normal' variation of the trogboss (not used in soe).
monster_bane - episode one end boss as seen in soe1m5
monster_dragon - requires a lot more explanation. See dragons.txt in soe_devkit.zip
 Oh, And To Clarify A Couple Of Things,
#14 posted by Tronyn [70.64.188.107] on 2005/07/15 16:20:28
I'll likely release the package both with and without the SoE progs; that way, people who already have SoE won't have to download the custom content again.
I'll be making the start map for this also, and as in Lost Chapters it will have entrances to all the maps which can be played in any order.

I think I've found the cause of the QC cutscene crash in soe1m2. It happens only on Easy skill and is caused by missing precaches for the rubble models. It works in the other skills because then some misc_trees(!) fix the precaching for the rubble models.
The bug is in the func_exploder/func_multi_exploder functions in hip_expl.qc, where the rubble is not precached properly due to an unused count variable blocking it.
There are some kill count issues as well that I'm trying to track down.

I've had some severe computer trouble that's prevented me from doing basically anything. I'm worried that I might need to reformat and reinstall windows even which would be a huge pain in the ass. Anyway I've got someone much more knowledgable than me coming to look at it tomorrow to see what has to be done.
My map is probably about 50% done; given a working computer I should be able to make the deadline (or close to it anyway).
 I've Had My Share Of Those Problems,

I have my layout done. I want to replay SoE this weekend, to make sure my map stays thematicaly consista.
The difficult part is trying to find a good Tolkien quote. I don't have that last book of tales that has the good verse in it (LOTR verse tends to be on the serviceable side, gets the job done, but few memorable phrases).
Can we subsitute something from Led Zep's, 'Battle of Evermore?' Half way kidding there, though there are a few good ones in it.

My own map is actually still unfinished. I have put this on the back, back burner while I finish other projects (primarily a single Q1SP map and the arcane episode, in that order). It will be released at some point for sure - in the meantime, if anyone else wants to make maps (like Trinca) go ahead, there's plenty of time :)

#41 posted by JPL [213.30.139.243] on 2005/12/22 00:03:47
A specific qkm file for QuArK is not mandatory at all if you are maping for a specific mod (it also depends of the complexity of the mod for sure...). In anyway, if you have a good idea of the monsters and items included in the pack (and about what you exactly need !), just use copy-paste of standard monster/item into specific monsters/items in the map: just change the monster/item name to what you need according to pack requirements... fill/add the mandatory fields.. Normally, QBSP/VIS/LIGHT tools don't care if the the game is a standard quake or a specific mod.. and then you shouldn't have compilation problems.
Also, don't forget to copy the pack file in your tmpQuark directory (where the compile log files are located), it will allow you to play the map with all the embedded mod features, and then to test it directly from QuArK ;P
BTW, I'm currently using this methodology for my current project that use a specific monster, and it works fine !!

It's pretty large, so I might have to devide it in two maps to fall under the 1500 brush mark. That is okay by me.
One thing I've been meaning to mention is that the Source of Evil page is no longer accessable due to the restructuring going on on PlanetQuake.
I recall there being an sdk for SoE, and a choice of a few wad files. It could prove helpful, though I can get by by stripping textures from the .bsp's and entity list as well, if it isn't available.

No problem, I'm glad to be of help. As a site note, FilePlanet links for the downloads of the Gamespy hosted sites goes like this:
fileplanet.com/hosteddl.aspx? (this is the default part)
/tronyn (name of the hosted site; as in -planetquake/tronyn-)
/soe_devkit.zip (filename, in it's full length)
So the final link should be:
http://www.fileplanet.com/hosteddl...

Suppose I'd like to get the Crescendo of Dreams - first I change the hosted site to necros (with a slash before the name, of course), then add the filename: ne_marb.zip. The link would be..

I worked on it a bit this Summer but haven't touched it in about a month; here are some bits I plan to keep http://img208.imageshack.us/img208...
but I'll have to change those textures to fit the SoE theme. This map is more CoE like though. I've attempted to make an IKBlue

for some reason i like the first shot better (without the roofs).
imo, you should remove the outer castle walls and come up with something else for seperating the parts. maybe just sky?
it looks like a potentially nice map if you extended the gameplay area to the rooftops - as i said, several atriums with multiple layers. could be a wicked 'backtracking'/trickjump map if done properly.
if you insist on keeping the outer walls, at least scale their texture up by 2 or 3..

#73 posted by Tronyn [207.47.212.238] on 2007/01/10 19:26:22
You can use func_spawn just as in Hipnotic or Rogue (I'm not sure if this is how Quoth does it)
you just make an entity func_spawn where it's supposed to spawn, with the desired angle, and it has these attributes:
key value
targetname (say "bob")
spawnclassname "monster_ogre"
spawnfunction "monster_ogre"
the last two, are both just the monster you want to spawn, for example monster_ogre
so then in this case, when "bob" is triggered by touching a trigger, grabbing a key, etc, the ogre spawns facing whatever direction, in the spot where the func_spawn entity. Clear as mud? Thought so :)
oh and don't worry about going over the brush limit if you need to, I did. Good god did I ever.

Status:
I have been talking to Patrick Martin lately about including the new Dragons stuff he's working on in this release. It sounds promising and will almost certainly be in the final release (if not in the first test version).
I actually expect this project to be out the door this summer, or at least my portion of it to be complete. I request the following:
-My primary level for this project is pretty close to a first beta. I've already had a couple volunteers for testing which is great, but I will need a couple more testers.
-I need to know who's still working on a map & a approximate timeframe or guestimate on that.
-Trinca, is your map still being included in this pack? (I noticed you had a vanilla Quake version uploaded somewhere & reviewed it (very nice) for UWF for a forthcoming update)
-I need someone to do one or two tiny code bits (nothing unusual or ambitious, should take anyone marginally competent with QC less than a day).
-I need some suggestions for ambient noises and skyboxes. I want to make my stuff really atmospheric and these would both help. For a skybox, I'm looking for something like autumn woodlands, around a lakeshore would be nice. For sounds, I'm looking for stuff like rushing water, bird calls (not too annoying though), leaves blowing, bells chiming, etc. Post any suggestions here or email them (netgames@netdp.com (primary) or djg164@mail.usask.ca (secondary)).
-I also would like suggestions for an outdoor, medieval-ish deathmatch/arena map I could include with the package for the new Arena gameplay mode.

yeah no problem, lol sry I rarely pay much attention to readmes, time to start I guess. Headthump, Zwiffle, are you guys still in?
Might have got a Qc guy, we'll see. Still looking for the rest of the stuff.
 I Don't Want To Cause Any Delays

but if the deadline is in August, I can complete the one I have for it in time. Do you mind an IkBlue leaning towards Coven of Ebony style map?
 For Sure

Yeah, sounds good, the end section of SoE was fairly like CoE anyway, except with better caves.
Ikblue is nice.
 Well

If you still have my map and it still meets the requirements, then sure, I'm still in.

 Yeah,

worked out fine. The map is good, you're good at twisty-turny stuff, awesome/evil finale too :)
I'm shooting for the end of august with this and arcane both.
 Very Cool

That will give me time to take a few design risks and see if they are to your liking.

I have a few vacation days coming at the end of this week. I have been progressing slowly on the map this month, but a few more days of work and I'll have a pretty solid map to turn over to you.
 Me Again

got much accomplished this weekend, but still working on it. Still, it's possible to get it to you before August is out. I'll have the rare chance to work on it during the week.

Looks like travail-inspired ikblue.
Dunno if a better combination is possible...

Architecture and layout look really good so far, as does lighting, but I hope you plan to fix those textures. :)
Could be your best map yet.
 Thanks To Both Of Ya

We probably have the same source of inspiration in common, to avoid aping Ikka more than is necessary to do a decent job with those textures.
but I hope you plan to fix those textures. :)
That's half the reason I haven't turned it over to Tronyn just yet! Thanks for your patience Zwiffle, I know you had your map ready a long time ago. I'm so damn slowwww.
 Still WIP

calling it a night,
here is a couple of new shots:

I'll vary up that mono textured floor. Floors are easy so I haven't put any thought what to do with them yet.

This was a bitch to texture, but it looks wicked so it was worth it.
 Strike The 'is'

in the first sentence

i suggest moving away from the specific style iikka used, unless you think you can do better :)
 Well

unless you think you can do better :)
editors have come a long way since 1997, I'm sure Ikka with GTKRadiant 1.4-1.5 would still wipe the floor with my sorry butt.
Ikka's style in the ikspq2-4 series was based upon late Islamic design that used vast open vaulted spaces like what you would see in the Taj Mahal. What I'm doing here is quite a bit more primitive, like the Parthian design of Pre-Islamic Persia using chunks of blocks in the upper divisions to create a signature appearance.

I decided to hold on to the Moorish prefabs I made for a map in the Mortisville project.
