Dusty Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 What: Coding and testing for Dusty's Patch; a JKA single player enhancement/expansion. Help with coding some side things to free me up to work on some core aspects of the mod. Namely I might want help with: merging the mod with JA enhanced, working on camera controls, working on new NPC fields, fine-tuning certain NPC AI features. Why: If you like my mod. I can show you what I've learned about the SP code so far and help you understand how to make your own mods. Requirements: Basic knowledge of coding C/C++ is a requirement. Basic experience with Github/Git strongly preferred. I'm willing to explain using OpenJK, Visual Studio and CMake for project management, and will gladly help you understand what I know about JA SP coding. Anybody remotely interested?

eezstreet Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 I still think that abseil/rappelling, ladders, rock-wall climbing, etc need maps that are designed to use them and/or animations. Smoo and Archangel35757 like this

Rock Climbing would simply require a new environment shader that would allow "climbing" animations-- very much the same way the "Ladder shader" allows a character to climb the ladder via ladder animations. And climbing the ladder is just an illusion because the ladder rungs have to be a set distance apart to match the animations. Smoo likes this
