Documentation volunteers

In our ongoing process "More power to the community" we have allowed everyone to contribute to the mod documentation.

If you think you could help us writing a decent documentation or update existing entries, just head over to the Documentation and start editing.

This will help both, old players and maybe new visitors to find out more about Excessive Plus and all of it's functionality.
If you feel there is an missing section that you could contribute, feel free to contact a site administrator to get it added.

Re: Documentation volunteers

I edited the 1.03 Client Guide for language and updated it to reflect changes in 2.0a. However, I don't consider it complete. Also, please note that it was designed for the OpenArena Community not Quake III.

http://oa.goquake.com/wp-content/e+_docs/client.html

Anyone is welcome to edit and use it as the basis of a new Client Guide for E+ on Q3.

I will have a server version done sometime over the weekend or early next week. I will post the link here as well.

Re: Documentation volunteers

i got idea to rename link to domumentation in navigation. I think documentation can be more apposite than short docs

Re: Documentation volunteers

split please separately Client Cvars & Commands to:

Client Commands

Client Cvars 

That way at cvars section we can add some cool stuff examples with vstr's:

like 2 guns binded on 1 button

like Gama, sound, or fow, or connections switchers(increase decrease) on one button,

like separate sensitivities to separate guns and something like

cause now cvars/vstrs have no place, commands section is for default commands, but not for stuff that can be made combining all

thanks

Re: Documentation volunteers

well you are in a delicate area here anubis Tongue

2 weapons on 1 button is machine-switching aka switch-scripts which is an controversial topic considered as cheat/ unjust script advantage (bot/artificial help)

so the pointed motivation is unluckily wrong for other stuffs are ok from my point of view.

Re: Documentation volunteers

its just more comfortable way - but you know i use it cause my fingers arent that long Big grin..  same scripting is used to do those fow or sound or gama increas/decrease or demo recording, speking about demo (so it hink users can have and use these things):

created demo entry Happy maybe there can be 3 sections 

simple demos

mvd demos

avi demos

OR it IS OK as it is cause there isn't much info about it (i think)

EDIT: agree, there is topic http://www.excessiveplus.net/forums/thread/should-using-of-scripts-be-allowed
