Post subject:  Bad Ass In-Game Help Replacement Graphics

I made some replacement help file graphics after remembering just how useless the "help" is in Quake. I've seen some mods make replace the help graphics with actual useful information.

These helpfiles are not neutral replacements, they are centered around the mindset of the several hundred players that play on the servers most of the multiplayer-types here use, and for casual single player reference and has a list of servers that isn't so helpful for non-USA/Canada players.

I'd be happy to make more generalized help replacements, and I'll make one for QRack as well.

Comments, feedback, improvement thoughts are welcomed.

I forgot to add how with JoeQuake you can make a cool Quake name by holding down the CTRL key, but since the next JoeQuake will have that awesome name maker it doesn't really matter.

The color chart was borrowed from Megazoid's table, I'm sure he doesn't mind.

Note: This is limited to 6 graphics as that is the number of help pages in Quake.

:shock: bloody hell that looks awesome! and it's all in the help menu?
but whats Singed.net and Quakeboard.net?

Also does Joequake have a fog option cause i was playing Nehahra and no fog :( it'll be nice to see it in the next version also what about rain and weather effects?

Singed.net is where a lot of the players who play on the servers here "hang out", chat, etc. QuakeBoard.net is a player forum based around the quake.ihoc.net server.

You didn't answer my question about fog :(

I don't know the answer for sure. I think I've seen fog in Nehahra with JoeQuake but can't reproduce the result but this could be because I'm not using the right fmod.dll or maybe JoeQuake, in fact, doesn't do the fog.

I know I've seen the rain and snow effects.

Just add the "-nehahra" option.

yes, there is fog if you play nehahra. It is used internally from the nehahra pak when playing demos, but you can turn it on by yourself either via the following variable:
gl_fogenable 1
gl_fogdensity sets the fog's density, it's 0.8 by default.
there are also gl_fogred, gl_foggreen and gl_fogblue to set the amount of the colors, all are 0.3 by default.

Sorry for not mentioning this anywhere, I totally forgot about it after I made JQ nehahra-compatible.

I like how fvf.servequake.com isn't in the server list. It's pretty active. You guys have something against Gunter the wierdo?

Baker aka the guy who mercilessly hook-kills Canadian Sniper --- not that I don't do that to everyone else too. :D

Don't believe Bastard #5.

I either play as Green Guy or anonymously depending on how serious I am about playing.

I think it says these commands don't exist in the console :? but i'll check again. You need to fix another big issue with Nehahra, the console command "playmod" doesn't work :cry: this allows you to the music that comes with nehahra but it says the command doesn't exist.

*sigh*

it does exist, and it does work, just start the game with -nehahra
