          "On the fly" Quake level editor - simply QuakeC patch
                    by Peter Porai-Koshits (Dragon__)            


    MAP_EDIT patch - it's a little part of my Quake Project1 patch ( see 
  proj1_??.zip -  QUAKE Project1 ). Last version - 0.91, proj1_91.zip
    I include in MAP_EDIT several features:   


     1) "SemiPause". When game is "semipaused", players can't move and fire, 
  but can change skins, names and do other stuff.
  "Semipause" switching ON/OFF - "impulse 211  ".
      
     2) "Observer mode 1.19". It's a rewritten Observer 1.1. You can enter
  to Observer (JAFO) mode by "impulse 210  ". When you already in Observer
  mode you can switch NOCLIP ON/OFF by the same "impulse 210 ".
     
     3) "Server News". It's just a little help for keys binding -
  press "impulse 215 " to check.
     
     4) MultiSkin 1.1. "impulse 200  ", "impulse 201" for change skins.
  player.mdl NOT included. You can find it at ftp.cdrom.com/.../multi_11.zip

     And finally, main modification:

     5) You're playing on your favorite deathmatch level and you want to 
  improve this level's conditions? But you don't want to research heaps 
  of Quake level editors, bsp compilers, brush makers, converters, etc... 
  YOU CAN DO IT NOW with Quake MAP_EDITOR patch! 
      "Game Administrator" mode added. What it does:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
      By pressing "impulse 212" a player can became a Game Administrator.
      Now he can choose any weapon/ammo/item by impulses 200,201 (same
      as for MultiSkin) and place them anywhere on the level by pressing
      impulse 134. When editing is finished just press impulse 212 again 
      and you'll became a regular "player" again.
      During the game only one player can became a Game Administrator
      only once and if he has 0 frags.
      While Administration mode ON - all other players (not Admin) 
      staying in SemiPause mode and can't move/shoot. 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Key binding:
  impulse 134   - Put items when Administrator mode ON
  impulse 135   - Removing items mode ON/OFF when Administrating
  impulse 200   - Change Skin  + (Choose item when Administrating)
  impulse 201   - Change Skin  - (Choose item when Administrating)
  impulse 210   - Observer Mode (NOCLIP observer mode ON/OFF)
  impulse 211   - SemiPause 
  impulse 212   - Admin functions ON/OFF
  impulse 215   - Server News
