It's just a bunch of Quake3 weapon models & sounds and "funny" qc stuff. Nothing too interesting nor special.

E4m1 Experiment - The Sewage System Massacre

I have spent few hours repopulating e4m1 with medieval monsters. I think the result is interesting in gameplay terms. On hard the play is very brutal and maybe you should consider using all the secrets you know from e4m1.
I didn't change any textures and made only some very small changes to the brushwork.
Hope someone will enjoy it :)

I enjoyed your remake, nice carnage.
Though the spawning Knights made it somewhat awkward to get a good demo, there seemed to be always 1-2 kills missing. Would be cool if you made more of those.
Here is a passable 100%:

Headthump's ratings:
Bush 43: terrible
Clinton: mediocre
Bush 41: terrible
Reagan: acceptable, but expensive
Cousin Jimmy: pretty bad, Zbig was cool though
Ford: place holder
Nixon: scary, but entertaining
Johnson: 3rd worse in Modern History
Kennedy: Overrated
Eisenhower: acceptable, great farewell address
Truman: 2nd Worse, #1 war criminal in human history
FDR: worst and still chipping away at our SOL
Hoover: Terrible
Coolidge: awesome, my kind of guy
Harding: best prez evah!

We Will Never Have A Worse President Than Warren G. Harding

You Could Not Possibly Be More Wrong

Court historians rank presidents by the degree to which they have increased the power of the executive and engaged in political messiahism no matter of the long term consequence of their actions, I rank them by how well they 1) left the American alone, 2) did not threaten the general peace, 3) or impede the prosperity.
Here is a quote to chew on:
http://www.mises.org/story/2491
Harding's Teapot Dome affair is but a drop in the ocean compared to the global horrors set in train by Wilson's decision to take the United States into World War I: Allied victory, a harsh Versailles treaty, German resentment, the rise of Nazism, and World War II, not to speak of the rise of Communism, which also followed in World War I's wake. Why do the historians, and following them the public, place on pedestals the leaders responsible for such utter catastrophes?
So to say we could not have had a worse president than Harding is nonsense for the reason that the long term consequences of his presidency were minimal.

I Was Just Being Silly Originally

but that quote is bullshit. a harsh Versailles treaty, German resentment, the rise of Nazism, and World War II, not to speak of the rise of Communism, which also followed in World War I's wake were the results of decades of complicated history and the actions of millions. Blaming Woodrow Wilson for not seeing any of that coming is a little myopic, don't you think?

Are You Throwing Softballs

at me on purpose? I like you too but I would never give an easy means of grandstanding to a debate opponent, but I'll take it if you insist ;)
Yes, Wilson is responsible for those things by getting us involved in the First World War because without our presence the parties involved would have been forced to reach a far more equitable truce. Instead, we tipped the balance to the British and the Germans had to take the enormous strain of the entire war debt which they were only partly responsible for creating in the conflict. As the living standards of the German populous was greatly affected by this economicaly, that certainly lead to the radicalization of the beerhalls in the 20's and 30's.
The caveat I would add is that Communism was already on the rise in Russia at the time and Wilson doesn't bare responsibilaty for that.
Another quote, to answer the one that usualy comes up, regarding the Lusitania:
The well-publicized May, 1915, German sinking of the British ocean liner Lusitania is typically cited as one of a series of outrages to which President Woodrow Wilson reacted with restraint and patience. Eventually, so the story goes, even Wilson, a devout, peace-loving man, was forced to make war upon the Germans in order to protect the people and land of America.
Yet few in America at the time suggested the nation should go to war because of the sinking of "a British ship flying a British flag." In fact, that British ship carried over four million rifle cartridges and 1,250 cases of shrapnel shells � destined for use against German soldiers.
Wilson got us in the war so he could have a say in its outcome.

Eewwwwwwwww
