Step 2 Right before the W_FireAxe function, add all this new code. I'll explain as we go along... Note the star in one of the later comments. For some odd reason, when you look up, the shots go down. This line merely fixes that problem. //actually this is just a modified knight_spike from hknight.qc void() AxeSpikes = { local vector org, vec; local float num_shots; num_shots = (ceil(random() * 50) / 5); //random amount of shots //mutiplying by 50 and dividing by five will result in more //mid-range shots. Like the dice in D&D org = self.origin + self.mins + self.size*0.5 + v_forward * 20; //start just in front // set missile speed vec = normalize (v_forward); vec_z = 0 - vec_z + (random() - 0.5)*0.1; do //well this is easy to understand... { launch_spike (org, vec); //really is just a spike with a different model newmis.classname = "knightspike"; setmodel (newmis, "progs/k_spike.mdl"); setsize (newmis, VEC_ORIGIN, VEC_ORIGIN); newmis.velocity = vec * 300; //speed up newmis.velocity_x = newmis.velocity_x + ((random() - 0.5) * 128); //random spread newmis.velocity_y = newmis.velocity_y + ((random() - 0.5) * 128); //random spread newmis.velocity_z = newmis.velocity_z - (2 * newmis.velocity_z); //fixes strange bug* sound (self, CHAN_WEAPON, "hknight/attack1.wav", 1, ATTN_NORM); num_shots = num_shots - 1; //hmm... } while (num_shots > 0); }; /* ================ W_FireAxe ================ */

Step 3 OK now in the W_FireAxe function, add the new code in blue. /* ================ W_FireAxe ================ */ void() W_FireAxe = { local vector source; local vector org; AxeSpikes (); //shoot hell knight spike makevectors (self.v_angle); source = self.origin + '0 0 16'; traceline (source, source + v_forward*64, FALSE, self); if (trace_fraction == 1.0) return; org = trace_endpos - v_forward*4; if (trace_ent.takedamage) { trace_ent.axhitme = 1; SpawnBlood (org, '0 0 0', 20); T_Damage (trace_ent, self, self, 20); } else { // hit wall sound (self, CHAN_WEAPON, "player/axhit2.wav", 1, ATTN_NORM); WriteByte (MSG_BROADCAST, SVC_TEMPENTITY); WriteByte (MSG_BROADCAST, TE_GUNSHOT); WriteCoord (MSG_BROADCAST, org_x); WriteCoord (MSG_BROADCAST, org_y); WriteCoord (MSG_BROADCAST, org_z); } };

Step 4 It would be all done right now...but we have to precache the damn sounds and models! Again, new code is in blue... // called by worldspawn void() W_Precache = { precache_sound ("weapons/r_exp3.wav"); // new rocket explosion precache_sound ("weapons/rocket1i.wav"); // spike gun precache_sound ("weapons/sgun1.wav"); precache_sound ("weapons/guncock.wav"); // player shotgun precache_sound ("weapons/ric1.wav"); // ricochet (used in c code) precache_sound ("weapons/ric2.wav"); // ricochet (used in c code) precache_sound ("weapons/ric3.wav"); // ricochet (used in c code) precache_sound ("weapons/spike2.wav"); // super spikes precache_sound ("weapons/tink1.wav"); // spikes tink (used in c code) precache_sound ("weapons/grenade.wav"); // grenade launcher precache_sound ("weapons/bounce.wav"); // grenade bounce precache_sound ("weapons/shotgn2.wav"); // super shotgun //-----------new precaches---------- precache_sound ("hknight/attack1.wav"); // sound precache_model("progs/k_spike.mdl"); // model };

Step 3 Hope you caught all that. I think by now you know how to use QuakeC patches, so I won't insult your intelligence. Have fun...
