Vision of Hatred by Darin McNeil 1/15/97 -------------------------------------------------------- with the 'Cut-scene Construction Kit' ======================================================== A new level with Quake-C modifications. Included is the 'Cut-scene Construction Kit' I developed for this level. It allows the inclusion of scripted cut-scenes into quake levels. Unzip 'CCK.ZIP' and read the file, 'cck.txt' for instructions on using the Cut-scene Contruction Kit in your levels. Filename : vision.bsp Author : Darin McNeil Contact e-mail : darin@usl.edu Description : This is a medium sized single-player level. An enemy base built inside a volcano. Additional credits to : id Software - I know they don't need any more praise, but man I love these guys. Chris Carollo and Trey Harrison (Quest) Beta testers : Greg, Brent, Josh. Thanks. ==================================================================== * Play information * Single player : Yes, this is stictly single-player only. Cooperative : NO!! Deathmatch 2-4 : NO!! Deathmatch 4+ : NO!! * Construction * Editor(s) used : Quest Build time : Too long. Known Bugs : No vis errors that I know of. * Instructions * 1. Make a new sub-directory under your Quake directory, name it 'vision'. 2. Place the contents of the '.zip' file in the new directory. 3. DO NOT PUT IT IN THE 'ID1' DIRECTORY! DO NO OVERWRITE ANYTHING! 4. Start Quake by typing: quake -game vision +map vision * Play Info * You will sometimes be walking along, and suddenly the screen will go full-size and you will lose control. Don't panic, it's a cut-scene. Read the scripts as they show up on the screen. If you have already seen this scene, or you think cut-scenes suck, press '1' to exit the cut-scene early. This will also switch you to the axe, so you may want to switch back to whatever weapon you were using before. Please don't cheat, the level is somewhat hard - but if you use the head on your shoulders you will enjoy it. Save often. The finale sequence is pretty groovy also. Enjoy. * Miscellaneous info * This was both fun and challenging. I was waiting for QuakeWorld to come out so I figured I'd take a stab at doing something neat for single-player games. Adding a plot line to a level seemed to be a good idea, so I started on the 'Cut-scene Construction Kit' (CCK). I'm pretty pleased with it. I had limited free time, so some parts of development got skimped on - mostly the level design - now that I'm out of time I see many ways that I could have used the CCK more effectively in a level. But alas, the semester is starting up so my free time will become scarce. That's why I'm releasing the CCK. It would be neat if other people used/improved/expanded it. If you use it, please drop me a line so I can check it out. Quake rules the Cosmos! * Legal stuff * I am not responsible for any harm you may do while installing this add-on. Follow the instructions, do overwrite any existing files! You may distribute this add-on anyway you see fit, as long as it adheres to id Software's license. Please distribute this text-file with the level. Thanks. If you use the CCK, please at least tell me so I can check it out. It might be nice if you gave me credit too. Of course, I'm an American, and America was founded by screwing people over...so do whatever the hell you want.
