How to play

To play, you are required to connect to the dedicated faintRedux server (jj-serv), where you can face up to 8 players on a map. Also, the maps are editable and extensible for 3D modeling enthusiasts.

Leveling:

  • Every kill is +4 to your experience points.
  • Every death is a -1 to your experience points.
  • 100 Experience points = 1 Level.

Dimensions:

  • There is 8 players max per map, so after a map gets filled, a new dimension is created to hold new set.
  • To switch dimensions, one needs to enter and leave a map.

To get to the lobby, walk south in the Jungle to a little entrance.

Revision D

  • (21) Resolve the teleportTo and moveTo issue (moveTo = use prediction, teleportTo = don't use prediction; fixed).
  • (36) Fix awkward camera position. (Not really fixed, just got used to it).
  • (37) Fix zbuffer ranging to reduce zbuffer-overlapping polygons.
  • (44) Implement Dan's OSK for the people that want it.
  • (51) Don't discard user IDs in the chat module.
  • (54) Add setPos server command (only affects relogin location).
  • (56) Send version # on register.
  • (58) Fix bug where on other's PSPs, the death animation is looped instead of played once.
  • (59) Fix bottom "hint" bar whose smoothing was turned off by accident.
  • (60) Fix DH logo whose smoothing was turned off by accident.
  • (61) Fix lag (Changed how the item manager transmission worked).
  • (63) Fix vsync issue where the map draw flickers and the black background can be seen.
  • (64) Fix issue where players can't see their own level (always says 0) but others can.
  • (65) Fix annoying chat scrolling bug.
  • (66) Fix collision around bridge in map #1.

Revision C

  • (0) Tag (EBOOT images).
  • (3) Add bombom planting (Lobby = no bombom planting) (requires #33).
  • (11) Add temporary time out to prevent users from clicking [Submit] in the menu like mad.
  • (17) Add collision map loading server side.
  • (20) Add time indep. movement by getting the ticks in the game_think function.
  • (24) Add colors to chat text to denote when server speaks, you speak, and others speak (changed of mind, not going to implement this).

  • (42) Promote chat messages to TPC-over-UDP (some may notice that some messages get lost; this is due to send mode that was being used for chats).
  • (43) Implement sgl_splitSprite() for drawing large textures as split chunks (speed boost).
  • (46) Fix issue where, a player goes to another map, their X/Z coords are changed to match the ‘door’ of the new map, yet this change is visible for a few seconds on the old map.
  • (47) Phase out “POLL_EVENT” packet, and replace it with anti-cheat server-side version.
  • (49) Read events from the ESM map and not hard coded into the server.
