All the pickups look great! The Doom pickups bring back the most memories. Good ol' UAC  I'm guessing that the health and armor pickups will come out in a later release? I saw the Slip Gaters health pickups in Taban's thread, but not for the other games. I can wait for those though. The standard Q3 ones will suffice for now. |

I consistently made (at least):
- all ammo items
- all health items (excluding mega)
- the armor shard
the latter, because it's the most common of the armor items, and helps lots to accentuate the 'class-feel'.
Some of the powerups, and no armors are done yet. I think I'm going to play around and make some strogg armors soon, though ;]

  SW33TNESS. One criticism, though - shouldn't the Doom grenade pickup be a single rocket? After all, that's what it does ingame, and Tabun himself said that the rocket model already in-game will be used for the grenades. |

The grenade pickup changed in 99c to the standard rocket box for Doom, owing to the infrequency of grenade boxes and Doom's tendency to miss everything short of a cyberdemon with his slow rockets. Slipgate gets 5 rockets for a grenade box, and his rocket pickup was also changed to a standard 5 down from 10 due to playability concerns. That is, the few times you COULD kill a Slipgater almost always yielded a backpack with > 80 rockets. This change was especially needed since rocket explosion mechanics changed for Slipgate. They're slower than 99b's rockets in order to match Q1 speeds exactly, but much more lethal to take splash from one in 99c. Earth and Strogg pickup a different item entirely for grenades, both can toss them without a launcher so they technically qualify as an actual "weapon". If you don't think that's important then consider the fact that I won a match that went into "Sudden Death" yesterday with a handgrenade toss. Arena gets 10 for either rockets or grenades, but again has two separate weapons and we're not really into altering the Q3 class here.
Since the ammo quantity is identical for rockets and grenades there was no reason to implement a different model, same with the Skippy rocket boxes. Tab also usually qualifies his assertions with "unless I'm mistaken", since I'm known to change the code on him behind his back so much.

*faints* I agree 100% with all the WOW-comments. Those screenshot absolutely rock! It looks very similar to the original games, yet much more polished. Awesome job!!! I know I'm going to enjoy GenArena on my brand new PC. Specs: P4 2.6GHz HT  1 GB DDR-RAM  GeForce FX 5600 B) *drools* |
