Type of Modification

--------------------

Selectable Homing Missile

Quake C       	: yes

Sound         	: no

MDL           	: no



Description of the Modification

-------------------------------

I really enjoyed Vhold's Homing missile patch (it made me want to write my 

own patches). But I wanted to disable it in deathmatch (Cheesey!) and make 

it selectable in single player mode (sometimes you don't want to home in on 

crucified zombies).

 

How to Install the Modification

-------------------------------

Place the files (progs.dat and autoexec.cfg) in a new directory in your 

quake directory. Name your new directory whatever you want (i.e. homing).

Run: quake -game homing (or whatever your directory is named). Press h to 

activate homing missiles and h again to deactivate them. You can edit the 

autoexec.cfg to bind any key to do this. BTW the impulses are 40 and 41.



Technical Details

-----------------

This quake-c patch took about 1 hour to complete once I got the inspiration

to use bit flags to turn things off and on. The homing.qc file is in this 

archive in case you would like to see for yourself.
