THE GOBLIN CITY A Quake Mini-Project ===================== [Introduction] The Goblin City is a new scenario added to standard quake. It features a new monster(the Goblin) , a new map (the City), a new weapon (the Bolt-launcher), and a kind-of new weapon (the Mace) The Goblin City plays just like any Quake map, except for the fact that a few things have been changed to suit the medieval atmosphere (barrels, sounds, ect). Your first two weapons have also been changed, from an axe and a shotgun to a mace and a bolt launcher. The bolt launcher is basically an advanced sort of crossbow, while the mace works like the axe but is deadlier. These are the only weapons on the map, but all the other standard quake weapons are available in deathmatch. The Goblin city is playable in Single play, Co-op, and also supports DM (it has 16 player starts) [Installation] 1) in your Quake directory, make a directory called GC (ie c:\quake\GC) and put all of the Goblin City's files in that directory. 2)start quake by typing quake (or GLquake) -winmem 16 -game GC +map GC +skill (put the skill # you want here, 0, 1, 2, or 3) 3)you will be in the Goblin City, ready to rock *IMPORTANT NOTE!* Goblin City was designed to be run in Glquake, and it may not perform very well under standard quake. There may be greyflashes and slowdown. Think of this as a hint to buy a 3d card =). I can offer a slight amount of help for you deprived, non-GL users: Greyflashes? use: r_maxedges 3000 r_maxsurfs 1500 [The Story so far] You are a village Guard, assigned to the watchtower duty for the afternoon. You have heard strange rumors of a race of Goblins from the far west, besieging villages very much like your own to rid the world of humanity, and reclaim the earth that once was theirs. As you wait, you hear strange cacklings from outside the City. As you climb the tower to get a better look, you hear a loud explosion. You jump down the tower, see shadowy figures emerging around you, and run into the tower's lower level to hide. Looks like there was truth those rumors. The Goblins have destroyed the very village you were guarding. Now it's time to destroy them. [Credits] Dustin "aBivr" Geeraert (me!) Made: Artwork, models, the map, the skins.
