Just released the first version of a port I've been working on for a few weeks, purely as a hobby project. Very raw, largely untested on windows, but with enough new features to justify a public showcase. Pasta from the git readme:
- A "New Options" menu, can be toggled with "newoptions 0/1"
- Integer scaling
- Borderless window with -borderless parameter
- Auto-resolution fullscreen with -fullscreen_desktop
- Hardware-accelerated frame > screen rendering
--- Boosts performance massively on systems with GPUs
--- Tanks performance on machines without GPUs
--- Use the new -forceoldrender flag to disable
- High resolution support
--- Maximum tested is 16K, 2000 times bigger that 320x200
--- Defined by MAXHEIGHT and MAXWIDTH in r_shared.h and d_ifacea.h
--- Can probably be set higher for billboard gaming
- Non-square pixels for 320x200 and 640x400 modes
--- Can be forced on other modes with -stretchpixels
- General feature parity with the original WinQuake
--- "Use Mouse" option in windowed mode (also _windowed_mouse cvar)
--- Video configuration menu (mostly for show, use -width and -heigth)
- Proper UI scaling
- Advanced audio configuration
--- The default audio rate is 11025 for more muffled WinQuake sound
--- New flags -sndsamples and -sndpitch (try -sndpitch 5 or 15)
- vim-like keybinds that work in menus, enable with -vimmode flag
- Mouse sensitivity Y-axis scaling with sensitivityyscale cvar
Building on Linux is trivial and only requires SDL2, windows binary is available at

All feedback and experience reports are appreciated!

Very sad news to report that has been confirmed by his brother, known online as Whitefish. Also a message from his long time friend ryanscissorhands:
"I am very sad and sorry to announce that Tronyn, the Norse God of Mapping and Rants, has unexpectedly died this week. I have known him personally for 34 years, and his passion and talent were unmatched by anyone I’ve ever met. He has contributed so much to the Quake Mapping community for two and a half decades, and has blown so many minds with his level design, architecture, and project vision. He will be sorely missed.
May we feast and drink together again some day, basking in the glory of Valhalla.

Yes it is true, an ..::LvL update! These two maps from 2000 have finally been added. Both are fun releases and well worth a quick look.
* Rockshellwill by Maxell
* ThePit by Neil Blevins
LiveView, video and panorama for each.
In other news, a lot of code updates in the background and some minor server changes have been keeping me very busy.
