| - CorkScrew is a mod for Q3A, focused around the Instagib game type (railgun only, one hit = one kill). You have only the railgun. Although the "Instantgib" option is available inside OpenArena, this mod has still various interesting aspects (check the server options screen). Some features:
* If you want, you can set the game to make the slugs bounce on the walls (and you select how many times)
* You can set an "invisibility game": all players are invisible (you can choose if they become visible when shooting)
* You can easily change the fire-rate
* You can set the grappling hook (offhand grapple) to be elastic ("CorkScrew mode")
* A progress indicator shows the railgun's recharge
* Railgun trace has a cool aspect
* If you shoot someone in the head, you will decapitate him
* "Valkyr" mode adds more colour to railgun trace... and to blood! Name is probably inspired by a drug from Max Payne videogame.
* You can enable "anti-camper" measures
* You can enable "head hunter game" (you will have to collect heads to score). A single shot anywhere still kills a character, but does not change your score. If the shot hit that character's head, his/her head will appear "floating": you have to grab it to score a point. You can alternatively simply "gib" a dead corpse to make its head appearing floating (there is an option that enables or disables the "heads from gibbing corpses" feature, hence requiring real headshot kills to get heads).
* You can view your stats on the right of the screen
* You can perform "rail jumps": you can "rocket jump" using railgun (with the option "splash damage effects" enabled, corresponding to g_railgunExplosions "1" command.)
* If you fall down in a deadly pit, you will immediately return in game without dying (you will not lose a frag)
* "Random Skirmish" option brings you to a fight directly from the main menĂ¹ The mod includes an html "readme" file.
