-Actioncube Beta 0.9
|
||
By Rabid Viper Studio
|
||
|
||
ActionCube is a team oriented total conversion of Wouter van Oortmerssen's cubeengine. (www.cubeengine.com)
|
||
|
||
Set in a realistic-looking environment (as far as that´s possible with cube of course), while gameplay stays fast and arcade.
|
||
|
||
Keep in mind that this beta release aims at presenting and providing the basic gameplay elements of Actioncube.
|
||
|
||
We also consider a port to Sauerbraten (most likely to be called "ActionBraten") in wich we plan to further refine gameplay and visuals, and possibly adding a unique self made texture set.

You will find suggestions for more ergonomical key setups in the autoexec.cfg
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------The Weapons ----------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
-Swiss Tech Combat Blade DR-88-
|
||
|
||
A sharp and swift blade. Your last ressort when you ran out of Ammo and your best friend
|
||
in humiliating snipers and campers.
|
||
|
||
-Mk-77 Semi-Automatic Pistol-
|
||
|
||
You basic sidearm. A powerful resort weapon, yet typically less effective at range.
|
||
The small clip size is something you need to keep an eye on.
|
||
|
||
-V-19 Combat Shotgun-:
|
||
|
||
8-round semi-automatic shotgun. This powerful weapon can shred your opponents to pieces-
|
||
if you´re close enough.
|
||
|
||
-A-Ard 10 Submachine Gun-
|
||
|
||
This one releases a deadly spray of bullets at a high rate of fire.
|
||
However, due to the short barrel and small caliber,
|
||
it´s manstopping power is limited, and effectiveness ceases at longer ranges.
|
||
|
||
-MTP-57 Assault Rifle-
|
||
|
||
The large caliber deals a substantial amount of damage. A long barrel ensures accuracy even at high range.
|
||
It can become difficult to control when shooting bursts of more than 3 bullets.
|
||
|
||
-Precision Tech AD-81 Sniper Rifle-
|
||
|
||
Semi Automatic Sniper rifle, equipped with a 2x Scope. The large caliber can do a frightful amount of damage.
|
||
Though naturally most accurate when used with the scope, the highly ergonomic design allows the experienced shooter to operate it from the hip as well.
|
||
|
||
------------------------ Gamemodes ---------------------
|
||
|
||
-Team Deathmatch-
|
||
|
||
Two teams fight each other. The team team that has the most frags at the end of the round will win.
|
||
|
||
-Team Survivor-
|
||
|
||
Round based team combat. If you die, you will have to wait until the end of the round until you can spawn again. Once all members of a team are dead, the surviving team will be awarded a point and the next round will start.
|
||
|
||
- Last man Standing -
|
||
|
||
Round based combat, no teams. The surviving player will win the round and be awarded a point.
|
||
|
||
- Deathmatch -
|
||
|
||
no teams, everyone for himself. :P
|
||
|
||
|
||
----------------------------How to choose your crosshair-----------------------
|
||
|
||
We wanted to provide this functionality in the menus, but whatever.. it´s simple:
|
||
|
||
Go to actioncube/packages/misc/crosshairs
|
||
|
||
|
||
The crosshair that is currently used is called "default.png" Simply rename that file (for example to "default_.png")
|
||
|
||
then rename your desired crosshair to "default.png"
|
||
|
||
You might need to set /crosshairsize n to your prefered value (this also depends on your resolution)
|
||
To keep the value permanently, simply add
|
||
|
||
crosshairsize n
|
||
|
||
to your autoexec.cfg. (n stands for "numerical value")
