the facial features were unplanned for, but I guess they're somewhat charming, albeit cheesy.
Reminds me of http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Vaal https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1303070823l/117859.jpg
I once wanted to make a Rune level like that, but could not get it to to work. Maybe one day in Rune 2. I assembled a new snapshot of dreadful things. The "Dreadful Dreadbase of Dread" (base1) always was intended to be part of a short campaign I call "Zernichter".
I zipped up the current state of a custom start map ("Paths aplenty") and base1. https://maikmerten.de/zernichter/zernichter-20171226.zip Changes: - Start: All new start map for all four difficulties. Of course, the entryway for the hardest difficulty needs to be discovered first. Also includes a hidden reference to another video game franchise. - Base1: Added another secret, put some gameplay into the existing secrets. Got rid of a boring elevator and replaced it with a more exciting arrangement of stairs. Made sure the first Shambler-fight doesn't derail due to monster infighting. - Canyons: Not yet playable enough, so not included yet. When finishing base1 it's thus normal to have an error message that canyons.bsp cannot be found. Screens: https://imgur.com/a/7w49S https://twitter.com/warrenmarshallb/status/947871992644014080
Dipping my toes back in the water, as I do every xmas break, to see where things are at. The current state of Quake editing is so good, it's surreal. Love the light and atmosphere. Wooden struts seem a bit spindly but that might be deliberate and work well in context.
I did a thing.
Ever imagined de_dust in Quake? Probably not but I did it anyways. https://twitter.com/muk0r/status/950108111208988672 http://quaketastic.com/files/demos/de_dust.zip Theres an included readme that attempts to explain the entity chain. also dont ask me why i put it in demos :P i feel dumb and in case its not implied, feel free to use this set up in your maps. the readme explains how to expand upon it with some simple find/replace of the appropriate values.
Only want one bomb? Remove the extra sets of trigger_counter/relays and bombs. This set up is actually really generic and could power more than just a bomb site :P Hey there! Just wanted to post my project I'm creating! It's a minimalist styled 3D platformer for the Dreamcast using the Makaqu Quake engine!

video (all the usual disclaimers: WIP, unfinished skin, unbalanced, etc). This gun almost got cut/totally redesigned and was the last to get modeled since I kept pushing it back because I just wasn't able to execute properly. The design did get simplified quite a bit (the intended design was asymmetrical and had a couple broken ribs instead of all metal "claws" as well as some intricate mechanical bits to move them). Modeling all the other guns first really helped me get over the mental block/lack of experience. I'm not super happy with it, but satisfied overall considering I thought I was going to have to trash it up until the very end of its production. I like how I come here intending to post a link then end up writing an essay. Sorry about that :P But that's not a bad thing. Really like the teeth/claw style. I think less obvious green might be better tho.
Others have said it's reminiscent of UT and I assumed they meant the bio-rifle (I've only played UT3). I guess previous iterations of the flak cannon were similar to this?

I played UT99 on PS2 a LOOOOOOOOT. I meant it as a good thing, btw :) i think it is like a Bio-Rifle and less bouncy RL's grenades. I suppose that the Flak Cannon is mentioned due to how the weapon launchs its projectiles through it. And by the way i am talking about UT, as I never saw much point in UT2003 and 2004 over UT and forgot about them quickly.
I have a suggestion regarding this weapon if you want to hear it:
Keep the teethy stuff, but turn it into a cursed gauntlet that the player wears, it bites into the players arm, curses it and morphs the arm itself into a weapon that shoots the green cursed goop or something similar. Could have some fun sounds, like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXvIjR8RWMs or maybe a bit fleshier. You could even do fun stuff like 1hp of life is one shot. Would make for an interesting risk / reward thing. But there already is a gauntlet type weapon that consumes (a large portion of health) as ammo. However, this mechanic can be exploited by activating the 'life siphon' artifact if you have it.
Cool idea, I think. My current design for the gauntlet is less magic/cursed and more gory/mechanical (think of the absurdity of the bees plasmid in bioshock, sorta that kinda feel).
