Zero Barrier Alpha (version 1.01)
For the initial alpha we have uploaded a small portion of the game for people to playtest online and give us feedback for future patches. The Alpha includes the following:
1. New Online Multiplayer Map with two different versions of gameplay
2. Running Map MP Game Type
3. Completely Custom Textures
4. 3 of our Custom Weapons
5. Newely implemented Sounds
6. Player Lean added *using the Q and E Keys*
7. Player Sprint with meter added *using the SHIFT Key*
Running Man v1.01
The Rules:
1. You have two teams, the runner, and a team of up to 11 non runners.
2. The Runners will spawn separately from the runner
3. The Objective of the runner is to reach the zone(goal) alive, in order to score a point successfully.
4. Once the Runner is in the zone, he/she has to hold the zone for 15 seconds before a point is given.
5. The Non Runners score a point by killing the Runner.
6. If the runner manages to kill all the non runners before reaching the zone he scores a point, earns a "Holy Shit" award and the round restarts.
7. At the end of every point scored, the round will restart, the players will be shuffled so that everyone has a chance to become the runner.
8. Only through stealth and pure skill will the runner be able to reach the zone alive, and score a point!
Download Locations: (mirrors)
Installation instructions:
1. Download the .zip file from the links provided, extract the "helia" folder, and all its contents into your quake directory next to your q4base folders. So your full directory for the mod should read something like this: " C:\Program Files\id Software\Quake 4\helia " Use the icons in the helia folder to launch the game!
Future Updates:
In v1.02 you can expect to see a huge addition to the Zero Barrier world! Included but not limited to:
1. two new multiplayer maps
2. two additional weapons Including a new melee weapon (Taser)
3. 2 original multiplayer game types,
4. The introduction of the single player campaign.
5. 7-10 new character models for Multiplayer and Single Player.
The Release date for the next patch will be coming in the next month or two. However the additional maps may appear sooner. We do have a lot of content already finished, but are making some changes to things. This would have delayed the launch of the Alpha, I felt it was import to launch on time, so please check back often as we will be posting pictures videos, and updates to the maps, often.
If you have questions about using the gametype to set up Running Man in your own maps, jump on over to our forums and create an account. The team logs into the forums on a daily basis and would gladly answer any questions that people have. Jch321.com
I would also like to invite the community to our forums to give us feedback on things that you have found that need to be corrected. We included two different versions of the same map, but with different playing styles, I would like the community to tell us which one they prefer. We are aware of some of the issues with the game, but would love to hear about any bugs people have encountered. Thank you all for being so patient, and enjoy the alpha!
