ZEQ2 Lite

Changes:

• Adjusted code aesthetics of cg_view.c file.

• Upon transformation, if the current weapon is not selectable, changes to the highest selectable weapon.
• WeaponNext and WeaponPrev validated in the server.
• TierNext and TierPrev console commands implemented.
• Holding F + Next/Previous weapon changes tier
• Lockon working again. Weapon validation and weapon sync improved.

Changes:

• Creation of the console command “tier”.

• Removed the duplicate desert shadow map approach.
• Added vertex lighting, much better performance.
• Added 4 cloud ring’s around the entire mapDesert. (In the 3D skybox)
• Shadows are more hard.
• Changed smoke behavior to have it linger. This is meant to be an effect for low-end systems, and needs testing for frame-rate dropping.
• Changed cg_particlesQuality to cg_particlesType (Quality is now an alternative CVAR).
• Finished fixing other character wireframes from showing. All characters have fixed shaders now.
• Fixed Piccolo, VegetaSaiyan, and VegetaCell to remove the wireframs around each triangle.
• Fixed vegetaSaiyan galick gun attributes. 2 Vegetas now match.

• Fixed head rolling in advanced flight with new camera.
•  Added 2 new camera systems (First person view, tier config animated camera md3′s).
• Fixed character angles when using attacks in mid air (spirit bomb charging animation while in mid air looks accurate for example).
• Fixed ‘Reflections’ option in general menu.
• Change to ground idle animation character angles, stays in a fixed angle until you move.
• F + W/S should only change tiers by one. Also, after the respawn, the full transformation scene must be played again.
• Disable left/right movement while walking.
• New improved first person view. BFP style.
• Changed cg_particlesQuality to cg_particlesType (Quality is now an alternative CVAR).
• Added console command “draw2D” for script drawing of 2D elements. See console for usage information.
• Updated the engine to be synced with the latest ioquake3 revision.
• Major additions to the engine are: modular rendering system and the IQM version 2 model format.
• Removed older unnecessary source files.
• Added StartFlight function for better handling of triggering flight.

Changes:

• PlayerState’s attackPowerCurrent and Total is no longer used nor sent over the network.  The variables must stay to maintain cohesion with entityState though.

• Charging alternate attack in air while jumping no longer glitches to a faux-flight mode.
• Removed older unnecessary source files.
• Added StartFlight function for better handling of triggering flight.
• Fixed the explosion radius issue. The attacks deal damage EXCPLICITLY in their radius now.
• Fixed a small inconsistency in goku’s shader file. 

Changes:

• Desaturated Goku’s textures in a cel-band reliant color method test.
• Changes to Krillin’s .gfrx and .phys to call the destructo disk as a private version of the attack, as well as added sounds for Solar Flare and Destructo Disk.
• Fixed fatigue recovery at low powerlevels. It is now at least 1 in cases where fatigue can be recovered. (Minus drain, if any.)
• Overpowering now adds the same amount of health as health capacity increases, without using health pool.
• Amount of health points healed is now more accurately limited to available health points in health pool.
• Fixed another health bug that prevents transforming.
• Tuned down fatigue cost by 25% when overpowering when maximum powerlevel pool is empty.
• Fixed not being able to raise powerlevel at low maximum powerlevel when fatigue is at or below current powerlevel.
• Made maximum powerlevel pool decrements use fractionPool aswell.
• Fixed the transformation bug introduced earlier.
• Characters heal almost all the way to max now, and to max once max powerlevel cannot be increased.
• Fixed problem with floating point tier config breakLimitRate values being rounded down due to integer conversion.
• Health pool now only gets reduced if player is damaged when overpowering. (Practically always for now, due to maximum health rising at the same time.)
•  ”canOverheal False” in tier config now properly prevents healing.
• Maximum powerlevel can now reach 32767 instead of only 32766.
• Maximum powerlevel pool (plMaximumPool) is now reduced at a rate relative to breakLimitRate to balance powerlevel gained. Previously different breakLimitRate’s would give different amounts of maximum powerlevel for the same amount of pool.
• Vertex lighting on Namek, also adjusted the underwater seabed fog border to the same color as the horizon.
• Namek – Reflections and fog added.
• Changed knockback recovery 2 to 1 frame for all characters in order to fix glitch.

• Power jumping from a stationary (no movement keys) position will offer 25% more impact.
• Boosting prior/during a power jump will result in double distance covered.

• Timing a turbo jump will increase the jump height/distance per successful jump.
• Timing 5 or more turbo jumps will put the player into a “blink” state where they sporadically appear nonvisible.
• Reworked soar mode to be more simplified. Looping/Rolling aerial maneuvers have been removed and movement keys produce no changes. Mouse movement now possible. Soar mode automatically toggles on advanced flight to differentiate the movement type.
