Spawn player without machinegun...

Hi everyone,
I would like to know if there is a (not to complicated
) way to spawn the player without machinegun, i.e. only with the gauntlet...
Thanks in advance!

's Easy as pie. You need to edit ClientSpawn() in game/g_client.c for that.

Thanks a lot!
I set the amount of ammo given to the player to 0...
Code: Select all
client->ps.stats[STAT_WEAPONS] = ( 1 << WP_MACHINEGUN );
if ( g_gametype.integer == GT_TEAM ) {
client->ps.ammo[WP_MACHINEGUN] = 0;//WW was 50
} else {
client->ps.ammo[WP_MACHINEGUN] = 0;//WW was 100
}
... and made the gauntlet base weapon...
Code: Select all
client->ps.weapon = WP_GAUNTLET;//WW was WP_MACHINEGUN
... Works!
One thing I'm still not quite happy with is that the gauntlet doesn't appear in the "normal" weapon cycle. Can you tell me where to alter that?

I can and I will. It's client-side code in cgame/cg_weapons.c. More specifically, the CG_PrevWeapon_f() and CG_NextWeapon_f() functions.

Cool!
Would have searched for that forever... Thanks a lot again!

Okay. This post is "only" 12 Years old. Is there a way to "disable" the gauntlet?

The one way would be to create a cvar in the code.
- In
game/g_main.c, add this where you can see the
vmCvar_t list:
After, inside
static cvarTable_t gameCvarTable[] = { add this line under
g_gametype one:
Code: Select all
{ &g_disableGauntlet, "g_disableGauntlet", "0", CVAR_SERVERINFO | CVAR_USERINFO | CVAR_LATCH, 0, qfalse },
And in
G_RegisterCvars function, add this after
g_gametype conditional if:
Code: Select all
if ( g_disableGauntlet.integer >= 1 )
{
G_Printf( "Gauntlet weapon disabled, to enable: 'g_disableGauntlet 0' and restart \n" );
va("print \"Gauntlet weapon disabled, to enable: 'g_disableGauntlet 0' and restart.\n\"");
trap_Cvar_Set( "g_disableGauntlet", "1" );
trap_Cvar_Update( &g_disableGauntlet );
}
- In
game/g_local.h, add this in
extern vmCvar_t list:
Code: Select all
extern vmCvar_t g_disableGauntlet;
- And finally in
game/g_client.c, inside
ClientSpawn() you will see these lines:
Code: Select all
client->ps.stats[STAT_WEAPONS] |= ( 1 << WP_GAUNTLET );
client->ps.ammo[WP_GAUNTLET] = -1;
Then replace to this:
Code: Select all
if( g_disableGauntlet.integer <= 0 )
{
client->ps.stats[STAT_WEAPONS] |= ( 1 << WP_GAUNTLET );
client->ps.ammo[WP_GAUNTLET] = -1;
}
Finally, compile the code, copy the compiled qvm, run the game, in console write and execute the cvar:
\g_disableGauntlet 1
restart and enjoy without the gauntlet!

Wouldn't mind a little tour through the Q3A source code. Would be super beneficial to creating the Infected mod.
