Revision as of 00:33, 29 June 2007

This is the current, incomplete roadmap of OpenArena

finished

Get all engine binaries compiled with the latest ioq3 source (win32 ioq3 rev 833 is done, waiting for Mac OS X PPC/Intel and linux x86 and 64bit binaries)
Get oa_bubctf1 working with textures and compile
New machinegun texture

(done) Complete the gargoyle mesh
(it's a skin instead; model out of plans) New machinegun model
(done) make sure every weapon gets a skin and a proper muzzleflash (Lightning gun, rocket launcher, gauntlet, railgun, bfg, plasma)
(done) every weapon and player model should have _1 and _2 LOD meshes (Blender 2.42a's merge collapse feature works great with edges and makes the process fun imo)
(done) Start two more characters on the PlayerMDL list
(done) Make new weapon sounds for Grenade Launcher, Plasma Gun, Lightning Gun, BFG, Railgun
(done) Gargoyle sounds
(done, cbctf1) New CTF map
(done) Fix the references to "Quake3" (i.e. baseq3 > baseoa, ioq3 > iooa, etc)

Tribute to Quake - convert, retexture and recompile all of Quake's GPL'd DM maps

1. Merman (complete)
2. Gangter (not started)
3. "Dmo" (complete)
4. "Hunterish" (skins need minor polish)
5. "Slashish" (pretty much complete except for some clipping, shading and skin issues)
6. "Arachna" (Almost complete)
7. "Commando" (skinned and unanimated)
8. "Robot" (Unskinned and unanimated)
9. Penguin (Skin and animation needs polish)
10. Liz (Getting skinned)

New gibs of ambiguous body parts (without skin), and internal organs
Announcer retakes
DON'T FORGET TO PACK THE TARBALL PROPERLY THAT IT EXTRACTS IN ITS OWN SUBFOLDER INSTEAD OF ./

Focus on "missionpack" project (i.e. put missionpack entities in existing CTF maps, make team symbols, UI etc)
"James" and "Janet" base models for missionpack project
The following weapons will be remodeled (old models will still appear in the attic):

Port Tremulous's particle system to cgame code for special effectsry that can be optional for client (So we can get rid of the fake fillrate eating sparks and other fake things)

All missing map textures replaced
All q3 mapobjects skinned (but of course it'd just be .tga's only, no md3s/ases from q3 here)
Soundtrack matching q3a music filenames

ARB reflective/refractive water shader support (this will bring in a big new audience, guaranteed)
Cross-platform ISO with binaries and (optional) installers for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X as well as self-booting with nvidia / fglrx support. (Probably be done around 0.9 and 1.0, but no promises)
