#Quake Web Tools

Tools for viewing Quake 1 file formats on the web.

See this page for more information about types:
http://www.gamers.org/dEngine/quake/spec/quake-spec32.html

###LIST OF TYPES:

• .WAV Sound files (RIFF/WAVE)
• .BSP Levels (map and textures)
• .MDL 3D models (Alias)
• .SPR Sprite models
• .DAT Pseudo-code
• .RC Resources
• .CFG Config Files
• .LMP Lump files
• .BIN End screen
• .WAD WAD2 file
• .MAP Level source
• .FGD Entity definition
• .DEF Entity definition

###TODO

• Implement a simple but robust file manager
  • file manager is exposed to user and allows them to upload/download files
  • Allow files to be loaded locally, from a URL or from inside a PAK file
  • drag and drop input
  • file 'url' should support files inside other files
  • how deep should this go? (e.g. texture in a WAD inside a PAK)
• Implement faster directory for browsing PAK, WAD and BSP files
  • fuzzy search algorithms using regex or simple substring matching
• PAK needs proper directory support
• Modify PAK files
  • Move file (change path)
  • Delete file (remove from PAK, compress PAK)
  • Rename file (change path)
  • Add file (add new data, rewrite directory)
  • Move folder (change path of all subfolders and files)
  • Delete folder (remove all subfolders and files from PAK, compress PAK)
  • Rename folder (change path of all subfolders and files)
  • Add folder (add new folder and files, rewrite directory)
• Save modified PAK support
• Implement Quake file type read support
  • PAK [done]
  • WAD [done] + animation
  • LMP [done]
  • PAL [done]
  • SPR [done] + animation
  • BSP [50%] + miptex animation
  • MDL [done]
  • DAT [no support planned]
  • BIN [no support planned]
  • RC [ascii format]
  • CFG [ascii format]
  • WAV [native browser support]
  • MAP [parsed type]
  • FGD [parsed type]
  • DEF [parsed type]
• Add support for displaying animated images (WAD using +0-9, SPR)
• Extract individual images from BSP and WAD
• Export textures in BSP to WAD and save file (should not be hard... I guess)
• Implement Quake file write support
• Implement a basic 3d view
  • View MDL files in the 3d view
  • View BSP files in the 3d view
  • Use 3d view for a MAP editor... (later, very big task)
• Think about configuration files for auto-loading files from the Quake directory:

[Quake]
    Quake.exe
    QuakeWebTools.html - executing from here gets around many access problems
    [QuakeWebTools]
        [configs]
            default.txt
            mymap.txt - config files store files to load for a project
        [scripts]
        [img]
    [ID1]
        pak0.pak
        pak1.pak
        [maps]
    [WADS]
