QWPython is a Python-powered QuakeWorld dedicated server. The core engine has been wrapped up as a Python module and altered to call back to Python to execute Quake game logic. A QuakeC, Python translator is also included.
Changes:
QWPython CHANGELOG
2001-04-15 (v1.1)
* Added WinNT/Win2k service version of CTF.
Pretty straightforward, anybody should be able to
adapt it to other QWPython games besides CTF - nothing
in CTF itself changed, all the magic is in the
ctf_service.py file.
* Removed C code relating to PAK files, since Python
handles all that now. Looked for and removed
other dead code (probably plenty left though).
* Reworked download code, so it now functions with the
Python resource-loading code. Still a few file-io
related bits of C code it would be nice to move up to
Python.
* Tested against Debian 2.2, found and fixed problems
that prevented a clean compile and running under Debian
(and presumably other Linuxes)
* Changed Sys_Error() function so that it now does exit
the game loop and raise a Python exception. Wish I
could also have it include the file and linenumber of
where in C the Sys_Error() was called.
* Cleaned up Python "pakfile" module
* Went over translated CTF, cleaned up code by hand
since the machine translation was a little rough to
look at (weird spacing, unnecessary assignments at the tops of many functions)
