i was going to say that reading through that thread was very interesting, thanks Speedy. They don't make 'em like they used to, etc, etc.
(Those maps both looked nice too, but gameplay on that UT2K3 map may not have been so good) On the UT2003 map is definitely not as good as that on the Q3 map, but, by UT2003 standards, its certainly on the upside of down.
and it's very very good. Could have tweaked items a little more but kickass none the less.
That's a gorgeous UT2k3 map. Makes me wish I had a wicked fast computer to build stuff like that. (or just to play it!)
I use FitzQuake: http://www.celephais.net/fitzquake/
http://ssj4death.condemned.com/nglquake/
Although I use the previous version, I only use it for the smoke trails/weapons effects and because it fixes up that Glquake water prob. FitzQuake is the best one I've seen so far. How about WinQuake? How does it do in terms of performance/image quality in high resolutions, providing you have a decent machine?
another map you ut2k3 peeps may want to check out is Ulukai's latest DM one : http://planetunreal.com/ulukai/main.htm
(scroll own the page for 2 screenies) He's made excellent stuff in the past so this would be decent at best, and it does look pretty if nothing else. Yes, another nice UT2 map, released, recently, just something about it bugged me. Glad DM-Aristocracy came along soon after, similar thing going on, but done much better IMO.
ToChris is currently in the lead for me with the freelook option, skyboxes and crosshairs.
Tyr-Quake is still pretty much a better WinQuake, with more choice of windowed resolutions. /me waits for Mindcrime's software Nehahra engine I tested a version of software Nehahra with Mindcrime. It was just a modified progs.dat which worked with any software engine. I suppose it worked with other GL engines, too, but there's not really a need for that. Anyway, he's not an engine coder, so if software Nehahra needs a new engine, it's going to have to be coded by someone else.
I suppose you could e-mail Mind and ask him what the status is. "On the UT2003 map is definitely not as good as that on the Q3 map, but, by UT2003 standards, its certainly on the upside of down."
After further playing time, I'd say that if the UT2003 style play can float your boat, than you'd have to own this map. It is an absolute pleasure to dwell in there for a time. Are there any new engines for the game Strife? are there any new DooM engines which would run it? (Strife was the doom engine)
q1 speedmapping session 42
7 single player maps: http://userpages.umbc.edu/~roneil2/sm42_pack.zip was chatting about sm'ing in general in #tf afterwards. conclusion: this million-monster stuff is really old. (this is why i prefer dm sm'ing, in fact) btw, if anyone could put that on fileplanet or somewhere else so i dont have to use my very limited school webspace, itd be appreciated (not to mention, the server is a bit flaky)
SM41_Asaki, one of the more interesting sp speedmaps in recent memory, had only 21 monsters.
Im no good at speedmapping, I paniced and just added craploads of monsters at the last minute to make it harder :D
