using Q3 source

Post by **Tyrantworm** » Wed Jun 07, 2006 1:50 am

does anyone know of any good tuts or explaination for using Q3 source code to create a game?

I can dig into the files and probably figure stuff out but it'd be nice if there were something out there to kind of get a start in understanding the source files and how they work.

thanks

Im looking for that too, documentation is just scattered over all the diff fora. For info on the q3 engine check out http://www.quakesrc.org in the quake III engine forum.

If anyone else has nice tutorials or documentation please post

What do you need to know? Edit the game source code, compile the QVMs, and run it as a quake 3 mod. Need to know how the quake 3 code works? Well, there may be some tutorials and stuff on that, but you're going to have to spend alot of time figuring it out for yourself.

edit: That's not to say that you can't ask questions about specific things and problems you're having though. Feel free to do that here. I'm sure there are at least a couple people here that would be able to help.

Yeah I need this. I am getting problems with getting started. I have the game up and running and see "Mods" in the Menu when I load up Quake 3 but I don't know how to make a new mod and get it to compile and run within Visual Studio. Any help here guys would REALLY appreciate it.

I'll give you a kiss?

I have a old qvm from a 1.16 mod. Is there any way to make it work in 1.30?

only if you have the sourcecode. just the qvm is not enough.
