I think it's great when someone takes the time to open up the Rune Quake source and starts making changes. That is part of what open source is all about. I do ask that any developer who makes changes to the Rune Quake source comply with two very simple requests:

#1) If you distribute a progs.dat, you distribute or make available the source code as well.

#2) If you modify the 'teamplay' console variable, you append to the "Rune Quake <version>" instead of altering the contents.

These very simple requests help keep the developer community alive.

Yea, I will keep this in mind. The version stuff is normal, and I havnt really had anywhere to let out the source for download. But I will load it onto my site when I figure it out. (phpnuke is confusing). :P

I'm not sure I totally understand this thread. Are you saying that Rune Quake Advanced should display the Rune Quake version that was modified to create RQA?

Yes.

Rune Quake <original version> <Developer Tag/Version>

Hmm, I thought you were referring to mods where people slightly modified Rune Quake. The RQA structure and code seems to have changed significantly.

If you applied this same rule to Rune Quake, shouldn't it also carry the RJS Version that was used to create it?

RJS <original version> <Developer Tag/Version>

This isn't a rule, it's a request. The Artifact-RJS project was handed to me by Roderick. He didn't have any problems with my renaming it, nor did he make any special requests.

This request is asked to all developers that use the Rune Quake code as a base. I don't think I am asking too much.

OK.. I just want to get this straight. When I open the settings file I see the name Ben Webber. Guess I should contact him.

If you're looking to change the version in RQA, I recommend you write Ben.

Thanks,

As I recall the original version was 0.5.3, though I am not 100% sure, I will have to check.

Edit: Just confirmed, the version RQA is built from is 0.5.3.
