So why must a regular Quake demo already be recording upon level load? Is there some issue with initializing the level/demo that can't be done once the level has already started? I'm wondering why we don't have engines that let you start recording a demo after loading the level like QW, but without using a different demo format. 

Is there a way to split a file containing lots of lines to one file per line? Windows or Linux doesn't matter. 

Check out JoeQuake, it has that feature. 

I'm sure there are nicer tools, but my bjt tool can do that:

bjt split -l1 -i myfile.log

You'll get files named myfile.000 and upwards. 

opacity.us has been eaten by godaddy.

OPACITY.US IS GONE :O

anybody happen to archive it? von? I've been using it for reference intensively all week. 

Sweet, thanks!

Would it be possible to get the new files named after the first word in the line? 

No, not so easily. You'll probably need a script (bat+grep) that combines the filename and the first word to form a command that'll rename the file.

Btw, I tried to find a generic file splitter tool, but I could only find ones that used a size for splitting, strange ... 

A beer for you! 

I am 26 though, so I guess that's fair enough. I stopped believing in Santa when I was 23 anyway, so I guess Santa isn't listening anymore :(

I got a coat and some pyjamas and precious little else*. I had already bought myself a Wii :/

*and some money 

...this http://www.bootsonline.com.au/snowy.htm from the Kringlemeister. Which is just as well, 'cause we'll be doing a benefit gig for the Wangaratta Country Fire Authority on NYE. Yee Har! 

who gave the player his voice? [nin].tr? john romero? my mom? does anyone know? 

If I remember it right from that Doom book, it was American McGee and John Romero who made those. 

that arrived the day before christmas despite an earlier email warning that the might not be available in time for the holidays. Yesterday I got around to making a USB-"sensor"bar for them so I can now use the pointing functionality and not just the accelerometer/buttons on the PC.

At this point I kind of desperately want my internet back at home though so I can read up on all sorts of things needed to actually come up with some sensible application for my new toys. 

No internet? Been wondering where you were. =(
/me gives bear a late xmas hug 

May all of your (good) dreams come true in '07 :) 

Got my rune - it was stuffed in my mailbox the whole time. This thing is sharp, and I do mean sharp. You could hurt someone severely with this thing. And who knew the Quake symbol would ring like a tuning fork when struck?

lol @ wrapping it in toilet paper though. you opted for the spring flower pattern I see? :) 

the rust is kind of coming off though. I mean, maybe I should stop rubbing it on my chest and sweating, but what did you coat these with? I might throw on a coat or two extra myself. 

Seems like the post dudes were rough. The coat was meant to be rather weak so it just keeps the rust from coming off, but not to make it glitter. Seems like it was not enough... Duh!

Yeah, stop rubbing it on your chest and putting it in various body holes! :P

I think I will give the remaining ones another coat layer then, well gotta try it on one first.

I am wasted and tired at the moment, I'll check the exact kind of furnace I used tomorrow. I think it was some acrylic stuff, but I might be totally wrong. Ouch, my head. 

...a light coat of hairspray. I kid you not.

And as can be read there, eventually a second new website.


Happy New Year to everyone! (except Shambler) 

And I think you misspelled Amateur :P 

yeah, 4 years of func, 10.5 years of quake, etc, yay, etc. frinkin yeah bitaotches. 

uh.. nevermind.

Bal: I hope I can get my ISP to actually do something to get my connection up and running again so I can try some IRC 2007. Might be busy in any case though since I just borrowed umbrella man's modified gamecube with twiligt princess, resident evil 4 and a bunch of other games. Did you get a wii and zelda yet? 

Yeah I got a Wii, Zelda rocks, 30+ hours in, reaching the end in a coupe more hours I think. 

Even though the "Do not disable account at end of contract" paperwork was sent through a month ago, guess what happened to my work account. Fucking HR twats!

Travail peeps, please send to my gmail account while I get things sorted.
