I guess not.

/me runs off to try that.

Still not working.

I've compiled the svn version with vehicles enabled, I created a map with one spiderbot and.. It's fantastic!You're a genius!When I shot guided missiles I felt like Xwing vs Tiefighter!! But I don't understand why if try to enter the spiderbot it pulls me back, like a force field, and when , at the end, I enter, it doesn't move but if I do exec vehicles_spiderbot.cfg it works. But, once exit the vehicle, is impossible to re enter, also if I restart map. I've to close nexuiz and reopen! Same thing with racer.I also included vehicles_spiderbot.cfg and vehicles_racer.cfg into the defaultNexuiz.cfg but iw works only the first time:enter a vehicle(spiderbot or racer) and it works, if you exit with command +use, it's impossible to re-enter.

Another thing, would you like to create a helicopter?I create the model with animations and you the code. I don't think it would be so difficult to modify spiderbot to insert Z axis for elevation.
Let me know if you're interested and , of course, if you've time!

I have a helicopter mesh you can use. i can finish it up and upload the .blend if you like.



also, is it possible for someone to upload a nexuiz build with the vehicles? or is that asking too much?

Wow Yoda almighty, it would be great!Infact it's a Nexuiz style helicopter! if tZork couldn't help us with code we can try to overwrite old model with this, and for code.. well, we can try! I like very much the cockpit!Great Design

Wowow this model is very inspiring to me. It's fresh!

This shouldn't be too hard to implement, since jetpacks already give you vtol-like physics. This'd be like a spiderbot with a jetpack.

Cool model, CP looks a bit WW2ish tough. Possible to code? sure, but atm i do have a bit to many things ongoing for it to be sane of me to start another. But that will change soon enough, i hope.

Well.. no. Id imagine this thing would roll, pitch and tilt, so "jetpack physics" wont cut it. Should be fairly easy non the less.

here's a cockpit i started working on. still a WIP

Wow!Cool Yoda almighty!I hope you'll finish it soon!

can i have just a breakdown of what you have to do to enable the spiderbot? i have a 2.5.2 build, and i know it has the spiderbot, cause there is a file in the extracted data folder for it.

so what do i have to do?

Have you tried loading a map which spawns spiderbots? Like this maybe:

And nice cockpit by the way.

go in your /data/qcsrc/server/vehicles/vehicles.qh

uncomment first line //#define VEHICLES_ENABLED in #define VEHICLES_ENABLED
recompile it.
Then create a map with netradiant, add a player_attacker, select it, press "N", then overwrite the value player_attacker with vehicle_spiderbot.
Build it, open it in Nexuiz, open console and type:

Code: Select all

exec vehicles_spiderbot.cfg

Now you should enter the vehicle
On my computer, once go out, I can't re-enter. Try on yours!

Nice wort on that cockpit Yoda almighty. Im just wondering if the view is not to limited downwards. Many contemporary choppers have a much larger part of the 'floor' in glass so the pilot can see downwards, this would be a good idea here too, imo (else you'd have to tilt the whole thing go get a look at whats going on bellow)

Sounds like you use +use in the console to exit.
Instead bind a key to +use (bind u +use) then press it. Else the game assumes you have +use pressed all the time, until you enter -use in the console.

thx a lot tZork!I don't what happened, I went to options, input, I create an exit value with "m" button, and edit it with +use on released and pressed(than I switched once only to released and once only to pressed), but the problem remained. So I type
bind u +use
and now it works!

So, I could hope that in the future we'll see a "Nexuizcopter" flying in the sky?

These links do not work for me
Are the files still available for download?

I think the spiderbot is built into 2.5.2, which is what you should be using now. Not sure exactly what you need to do to get them working in the game though.

Just download nexuiz SVN (via tortoise SVN if you're on Windows, or svn checkout command if you're on Linux). Then, I'll use Spiderbot creator's words(tZork)to explain it:
"add -DVEHICLES_ENABLED to the fteqcc command line, or uncomment the first line in data\qcsrc\server\vehicles\vehicles.qh"

Can someone please just do for me.

I am not a progremmer at all.
