Also, now figured out the maximum armor as well. Now to only figure out how to mess around with other powerups, removing armor/hp degeneration, and modifying the armor/hp damage ratio.

K, finally fixed the problem with the health pickups and maximum health. Apparently, there was 3 different spots in 3 different files where you had to change numbers around for it to work. I had been trying to do it by only changing 1 or 2 files out of 3. Now it properly increases to up to 500 hp, h...

Also, changed maximum health, I think, and the health pickups are still giving me problems.

K thanks. Found where it degenerates HP and armor. However, was wondering how I would remove it so that any amount gained over 100 hp/armor would remain that way until you took damage? If I simply delete the code, I get an error message.

Ah, but the thing is, if I change the amount given by the '5 hp bonus health' or the '100 hp bonus megahealth', it doesn't perform the 'bonus' part. What I mean is, normally when you pick them up, they can increase your HP beyond the maximum of 100 to 200. If I change the values, they still heal hea...

Found weapon fire speeds under bg_pmove.c

case IT_AMMO: if ( ps->ammo[ item->giTag ] >= 200 ) { return qfalse; // can't hold any more } return qtrue; By editting this code, the ammo max values work now. Also, found the other weapon damages under g_missile.c including splash radius + splash damage. Still haven't figured out how to change max...

I'm a bit bombed at the moment so I'll try that later, and report back on it. How would I edit things like: 1) Powerups (ie effects) [figured out how to affect respawn and duration of powerups already] 2) Maximum, unincreased HP/Armor (ie before HP or Armor slowly decreases over time) 3) Removing th...

Also, with my limited programming background, I know that with brackets you must match brackets with brackets. ent->client->ps.ammo[weapon] += count; if ( ent->client->ps.ammo[weapon] > 400 ) { ent->client->ps.ammo[weapon] = 400; } So, why is "ent->client->ps.ammo[weapon] = 400; }" bracket...

Ok, tried changing the MaxAmmo value higher, didn't work. However still had the oddity where my machine gun ammo went up to 249, iff I had 199 ammo before picking up the ammo box. In the code: ent->client->ps.ammo[weapon] What does this string mean? Is it possible that "ps.ammo [weapon]" i...

K this is strange. Altho I cannot manually get the ammo to a new maximum, somehow with the code I managed a partial victory. I got 231 ammo for the machine gun. However I couldn't pick up more ammo packs until it was 199 or less. And if I had 199, it would add 50 bullets.

void Add_Ammo (gentity_t *ent, int weapon, int count) { int maxAmmo = 200; if ( weapon == WP_MACHINEGUN ) maxAmmo = 500; else if ( weapon == WP_SHOTGUN ) maxAmmo = 300; else if ( weapon == WP_ROCKET_LAUNCHER ) maxAmmo = 25; ent->client->ps.ammo[weapon] += count; if ( ent->client->ps.ammo[weapon] > m...

Also the files created by running the .bat (batch) files all have the suffix .asm, not .qvm .

K, I tried it with your source code provided in the link this time. Build (Release) solution caused 0 errors this time and about 50% less warnings. dll files work fine. When trying to make the qvm files (im assuming the q stands for quake) there is no output sent to my Quake 3 Folder. There is some ...

Nevermind, I see the problem there now too. I was using a different version of the source than you were using in the tutorial.

Ok, I noticed what I did wrong in the first, place, and I'm on the second page, but I cannot find the /bin folder. Am I supposed to run the .bat files first, or is it somewhere else?

Course, itd proly be simplest if someone else just made the thing for me and posted a download link or something. Then again, I dunno.

Yes just the ammo count stuff. Not interested in the rest at the moment.

Actually found the errors in the Build Log: Compiling... win_wndproc.c c:\users\jason\desktop\patch\quake3-1.32b\code\win32\win_local.h(36) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'dinput.h': No such file or directory win_syscon.c c:\users\jason\desktop\patch\quake3-1.32b\code\win32\win_local...

K, so I followed your instructions on your site, got 7 errors (dunno why) when build solution (w/ Release), and I do not know how to add the commandline parameter, or the commandline parameter is not working.

K, so I got it (source files) loaded up in Visual C++ Studio, and editted the ammo values. Now, how do I turn it into a playable mod?

So, in that case I'd change the interger "int MAXAMMO = 400" to make all weapons have a maximum of 400 ammo?

So in the example you gave, only those three weapons would have changed ammo values? All the other weapon ammo values would remain the same?

Hi, I've been playing Q3 for close to a decade now. I've always wanted to change the Maximum Ammo, for certain guns, namely the machine gun. Is there a simple way of changing the Maximum Ammo for weapons, ie an available file for download, or a quick simple guide, for someone, like myself who is not...
