I Don't Actually Think That Looks That Bad...

.. much better than the random highres texture used on everything or the old mipcap 3 and other horrors.

Errrrr...

I didn't say it was bad, I just said I didn't found it really good.... It's my own taste...

Convmap.exe

Aguire, you still around these day?
i wanted to convert the quake1 map sources into the q2/q3 format (with the extra face definitions and texture path, so basically the opposite of -f 32).
i tried with mapconv.exe, but it's not working. specifically, it's messing up 'key' names, ie:
"message" "map name"
becomes
"" "essage" "map name"
so if you could toss a reverse convert of q1 -> q2 format into your already great converter, that'd rock. :)

There is a java version of my map converter floating around that should do this. You should be able to get it from here:

I'm looking for a few quake 1 icons. I have some shortcuts to quake bat files on the total commander toolbar. The blue&white MSDOS icons don't look that good :)

Are Quake .sav File Compability Tied To The Network Protocol?

...

Hmm, Ok I Wasn't Sure
#11202 posted by bear on 2006/11/14 17:01:48
was just asking to possibly be able to help this guy working on a quake NDS port:
Actually, does anyone here have any experience with the Quake engine? I've been playing Quake on the tube in the morning but upgrading the networking has somehow corrupted my save file! And I was nearing the end of the game! No fair!

Bear: .sav File Information
#11203 posted by
Gleeb on 2006/11/14 17:49:02
Quake's .sav files are basicly dumps of the network, possibly specially formatted, I dunno, but the jist of it is, the engine must be able to speak whatever protocol the demos use.
Someone needs to confirm this to be sure, but I'm pretty certain of the above.

Hmm...

i thought they were dumps of the server state, meaning they contain the entire level and not just the part that is sent to the client. But this is all speculation of course.

Client/Server Demos.
#11205 posted by
Gleeb on 2006/11/14 19:44:15
Well, client demos are dumps of network traffic the client receives.
Server demos, I dunno... I'm guessing that as server demos are mostly compatible with client demos, that it's pretty much more of the same, but with info about more stuffs.
Of course, SP demos are different again, as they already know about everything. It's probably just yet another client demo...

Wait...

I thought we were talking about savegames, not demos.
