  • Kruzin's Q3A Scripts

    A few of you have been around long enough to remember all my old Q2 scripts. Well, now that I have Q3A, I have jumped right into scripting up my goodies

    Since my Q2 scripts seemed to be well recieved, I thought I'd toss out my Q3A stuff...you can grab it <A HREF="http://users.forethought.net/~hti/q3script.ZIP" target=_new>HERE!</A>

    Here's the skinny on what they do:

    Kruzin's Q3A scripts, version 1.1

    WARNING: back up your existing autoexec.cfg and q3config.cfg, so you can
    switch back to them if these scripts are not to your liking. If you cant
    frag no more after installing these scripts, it AINT my problem!

    How to install:
    1. Create a new folder in your Q3A\baseQ3 folder called scripts.
    2. Unzip aliases.cfg, video.cfg, chatter.cfg and control.cfg into
    that new scripts folder.
    3. Unzip autoexec.cfg into baseQ3.
    4. Edit control.cfg to set the key bindings to the keys you want
    to use, and to set your name.
    5. If you do not want to use my video settings, remove video.cfg
    from the autoexec.cfg.

    Known issues:
    For some reason, I have a snag with my "Rainbow Rail" script. When
    the game first loads, your mouse1 button will only fire a short burst.
    Scroll the mousewheel UP once, and it will fire normally.

    Circle strafes conflict with each other. If you go directly from
    CSleft to CSright, the CS comands will reverse, and normal strafing
    stops working. Why?

    Personal thoughts on Q3A scripting:
    WHY did they remove the option to +/- an alias (now a "set")? Why
    remove aliases altogether and make us do it with set variables? I
    can see where set variables have their positive applications, but
    we still need our alias and +/- options. The loss of these are the
    cause of my scripting "known issues"

    How it is layed out:

    Basic controls:
    R = move forward
    F = backstep
    D = strafe left
    G = strafe right
    T = speed (walk)
    S = "circle strafe" left *
    H = "circle strafe" right *
    spacebar = crouch
    1 tru 9 = weapons as usual
    mouse1 = shoot
    mouse2 = jump
    mouse3 = rocket jump
    mouse wheel up = next weapon
    mouse wheel down = "rainbow rail"**

    * "circle strafe" is a toggle movement. Tap the key once to begin "CS"ing, tap
    the same key again to stop. DO NOT go directly from CSleft to CSright without
    first stopping the CSleft (or visa-versa...see known issues)
    **"rainbow rail" is a useless, but cool little script that switches you
    to the rail gun, and rotates the rail colors with each shot.

    Special Functions:
    Z = quickzoom
    A = toggle fps display
    alt = scores
    shift = "wheel zoom"*

    *"wheel zoom" will toggle the mouse wheel to a precise zoom in/out scroll
    from fov10(zoomed way in) to fov150(fish-eye). Tapping shift again will
    snap back to the default FOV (90), and toggle the mouse wheel back to
    weapons mode.

    F1-F12 are rotating chat messages, totalling about 40-50 things you can say.
    Edit chatter.cfg to change what the sayings are (don't want everyone saying
    the same things I do
    The \ key will toggle the F keys from chatter mode to CTF mode to original assignments.


    Have fun

          Let me know if you have any suggestions on things to add to the scripts. I'll probably work on the teamplay chat stuff this weekend...

              How about circle strafing keys?

                Ask, and ye shall receive!
                You can use the same link above to get the updated scripts.


                Read the updated readme above.
                Circle strafe, and some very basic CTF chats have been put in.

                And while I was going in and out of the game testing the new additions (that circle strafe was a bitch, and still has issues), I decided to play around with the "Rainbow rail", and some of the variables for the rail slugs....here's what it did

                        Nice scripts Kruzin!

                        The RainbowRail script can be fixed by binding to mwheeldown instead of mwheeldn.

                        Bots don't appreciate things like this, so I'm off to an online arena.

                          Thanks for the kind words all...

                          Ian J-
                          I tried your suggestion, but it still does the same thing...for some reason, it's trying to execute the "rainbowrail" commmand when the game loads, which leaves mouse1 in single fire mode.

                          Damn them for taking out aliases and +/-(aliasname)

                            OK, confession time. I didn't actually run the scripts as written but modified them to fit with my configuration. Along the way I noticed the mwheeldn/down problem and thought that might fix things.

                            There is definately a problem with the script somewhere: offline play is fine, but as soon as I joined a server the connect became choppy and extremely unplayable. Even before I'd picked up a railgun and tried to use it. Then my connection was dropped (56K modem) and I had to reboot my system to get control back. So I've taken the script out.

                            The problem you're describing is the equivalent of "no repeat fire"? I definately had this problem and couldn't see a fix for it. The -attack seems to kill the auto repeat, but you can't take it out either (the weapon doesn't stop firing!)

                            IMHO single fire on the RailGun is a Good Thing(tm). Forces you to aim with at rather than take pot shots.

                            Good luck in trying to get it fixed!

                              I took a look at the CS alias and I have a question. Does this script actually look exactly opposite to where your moving continously. e.g. looking left while straffing right?
