DaveGL 0.4

Ok so it's still pretty lame but also kinda fun. I've added a few sound effects stolen from Quake3. I've made no attempt to get it playing sounds efficiently for now, it just loads them from disk each time. They can only be appreciated when playing in multiplayer mode between two machines (playing with two copies on the same machine will cause the sound effects to play twice - 1 for the server and 1 for the client)

I fixed the bug where you could turn upside down - turns out I was limiting your vertical looking angle to -180 and 180 like a dumbass, instead or -90 and 90 :freak: I've also slowed the mouse down because after using it for 15 minutes I was feeling pretty ill!

Jumping can be seen when in multiplayer mode. Jumping still sucks because I haven't properly implemented time-based movement and it can be either very jerky or very slow. I've opted for a pleasant combination of the two.

You can also chat to each other! Press T to start typing and enter/return to send. Press ESC to cancel what you were busy saying. (ESC also quits btw, and if you're worried that the game captures your mouse, you can ALT-TAB to somewhere else and it will release it)

Your frames per second are displayed in the corner, this will probably be pretty high because not much rendering is taking place. :)

This is the final version with the little boxes because I'm about to start trying to load a Quake map into this sucker. :mad:

Oops, my bad. I put in a relative URL and it got automatically converted to a http:// url! You'd think this software would check for that :sarc Anyway, I've now got the right path in there. I've also made some small changse (time based movement) so it should work a bit better.

Please check which version is in that zip file, if there is a blue grid on the floor then that is good. If no grid then it's bad. For some reason I kept uploading the right one and kept getting the old one back! I suspect BBC proxy servers are trying to ruin my day. ;)
