See http://www.quakesrc.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5665 (if it still exists when you read this) for more details. +Creating stand-alone games + As ioquake3 is meant to be a reliable and stable code base, this engine is + ideal for your stand-alone game project. We made it easier for you to get a + binary that does not look for the original quake3 assets. The auth server + specific parts are disabled, too. + Just run make with the option BUILD_STANDALONE=1 + Don't forget to edit the PRODUCT_NAME and subsequent #defines in + qcommon/q_shared.h and fill in your project info! + While a lot of work has been put into the ioquake3 that you can benefit from + free of charge, it does not mean that you have no obligations to fulfill. + Be aware that as soon as you start distributing your game with an engine + based on our sources we expect you to fully comply with the requirements + as stated in the GPL. That includes making sources and modifications you made + to the ioquake3 engine as well as the game-code used to compile the .qvm + files for the game logic freely available to everyone. + This does NOT mean that you cannot market this game commercially. All assets + (e.g. textures, sounds, maps) created by yourself are your property and can + be sold like every other game you find in stores. + cl_guid Support cl_guid is a cvar which is part of the client's USERINFO string. Its value is a 32 character string made up of [a-f] and [0-9] characters. This |
