Ah, I think if you go through the multiplayer menu to create a game it will do that for you. 

Aye, that forum sounds interesting...

And on balance, I'm fair fake 

LULZ indeed. Have +1 Quake karma, Fraqture, and welcome aboard :) 

Which seems like an acceptable reason, if you want your game to be about the cutscenes : - p. bwahahha 

I finished sorting out the HDD problem (I have checked 8 other Maxtor drives and none of them have 'no jumper' for primary slave)

Anyway, I continue to have random crashes in starkmon. I assume it is to do with the ATI card and wonder if anyone else has had problems with ATI/Vista?

Driver rollback? 

What heapsize do you allocate?

And yes, people continuously complain about their ATI cards not working properly with Quake, including me, the x1300 in a work computer gives horrible "dead" pixels at any reolution, people complain that maps appear too dark, that WC wont let them select brushes in 3D view etc etc etc

The map is right on the limits for standard Quake, pretty much from every possible limit, so that maybe wont help :) 

fitzquake080.exe -heapsize 128536 -width 1024 -bpp 32 +gl_clear 1 -hipnotic -game quoth +skill 1 +map starkmon

The setting I have always used with Quoth maps (don't know why: reasons buried in the sands of time) 

-width and no -height 

cause im cleverererer

I dont know why it doesnt work :(
Its the same set up as me! Although I dont use -hipnotic anymore, I just dont see the point :P 

I'm able to load over 3000 new posts without problem now. I imagine some nice board optimization has gone on over the months. 

there should be pdf compilations of Nitin's movie reviews, and Preach's QuakeC advice so you want have to do that. 

 

I'd prefer a board like vBulletin here, although I do admire, understand and appreciate building one your own. Only wish it, at the least, it had thorough search and page features. 

Search: https://ssl.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/nbbw.cgi?Gw=site:celephais.net+inurl:board+bees

Page features?
I am so glad you cannot have avatars, signatures or other nonsense here. 

I like how it's streamlined, but the two aforementioned features are useful. In any case, even if a known board brand was used, that stuff can be disabled. 

it does have page features... that's what the "First | Previous | Next | Last" links are for. 

Someone's GOT to make some mashup how func would look like as a standard forum. With avatars, signatures etc. Haha! 

I am so glad you cannot have avatars, signatures or other nonsense here.

agree++;

I would like a Search function though. 

Just wanted to add one more vote of NO to avatars and sigs and YES to search. :) 

the old temporary forum peej put up that we tried for a while? That had avatars.

Not giving a shit either way.

Oh, god. /me cringes 

You mean the one that was derived from Peej's site code?

Yeh. It was horrible.

And for reference Fraqture, the design is based on a previous incarnation of the board which was based on a previous incarnation of the board which was custom written before premade PHP boards existed. We find it works. That and we're all very stuck in our ways ;p

But at least you worked out how the General Abuse/threads system works. That's better than the vast majority of new users. Welcome to func :)

No it wasn't, I had a Bob Ross avatar! Ok it was a bit. 

being what they are, forcing into extremely minimalist board form is a very good idea...
(People would not be ignorant or lack taste or an artistic eye, but annoying, malignant and repulsive on purpose!)
