Version 0.5:
- I added command-line support (through the application file's
finder comment). This means you can finally run mods! I haven't
decided if this is the best way to implement the command-line. I
implemented it this way because I thought it would be cooler than
having to hit command or option while the App launched. The good part
is that you can make multiple copies of the App and each one can have
a different command line. The downside is they have to be copies --
They can't be aliases. If any developers out there know how to figure
out if your app was launched from an alias please let me know! It
would be very cool if that were possible.
- GLQuake now has network support! I used Matthias Neeracher's
wonderful GUSI library. Besides writing the GUSI library he does
other great stuff like MacPerl so send him a CD (see below for
details). If you are building GLQuake from source, you need to
download GUSI 2.0.4 either from Matthias' site or from my server. If
you are using CodeWarrior Pro 4 (like me) then you will need special
versions of the libraries. You can get them from his site or from my
server. Put the "GUSI_204" directory right in the winquake folder. If
you are just running the executables then you don't need any of that
stuff.
- I fixed mouse sensitivity (it was way too high in the last release).
- I also added a README file that goes along with the executables.
