Clean-room reimplementation of They Hunger in QuakeC.

Preview 1 Preview 2 Preview 3 Preview 4

Building

Clone the repository into the Nuclide-SDK:

git clone REPOURL hunger

then either run Nuclide's ./build_game.sh shell script, or issue 'make' inside ./hunger/src!

Obviously make sure that Nuclide has fteqw and fteqcc set-up for building.

Status / Changes

So far all the weapons are re-implemented, but SP hasn't been worked on yet, so no custom NPC skins or behavior.

Multiplayer is functional, and now has some unique CVARs to give it more of a personality and make it fit in more with They Hunger's world:

  • Changed weapon placement for THDM Included are .ent files that have changed the weapons placed in the default DM maps for They Hunger. Replacing most Half-Life weapons with TH counter-parts.

  • th_medkitstyle 0/1 (default 0) All medkit pickups turn into the medkit weapon from SP, and each pickup is one ammo (or shot) that needs to be administered for health.

  • th_shovelstyle 0/1 (default 0) Gives the shovel visual first person effects, and slows down its attack.

  • th_rpgstyle 0/1 (default 0) Removes the homing secondary toggle making it similar to a real RPG.

You can enable these new CVARs with "exec mp_enhanced.cfg" in console.
