know a decent free photo uploading website with generous upload limits?
Hmm

Yeh, rtgnosis was originally for UT (or some later derivative) by Undule. The original pack would be on his site if IGN hadn't 'misplaced' the hosted pages...
(You can probably google a copy tho)
Definitely UT(99)

It was for a mod, cant remember the name off the top of my head though. Real Tournament or something.

Fun fact: t was designed by Libertarians, i.e. quasi-ethical anarcho-capitalists. Anyway, I used to score -9.5,-9.5 on that test; I'm probably -10,-10 now :-)

I finally finished another chapter of the software vs glquake series: http://www.quaddicted.com/software-vs-glquake/software-vs-glquake-fullbrights/
Critics, corrections and proofreading are very welcome

You say "strife" where you mean "strive" at one point.
Fixed, Thanks

Actually videogaming is to blame. I never played Strife but I remember its screenshots.

Those screenshots are awfully dark, I had to up the brightness in my control panel to view them.
But other than that, a very good read. It would be great to see aguiRe's glquake support fullbrights, as most other engines do.

Deus Ex 3
#17758 posted by Jago on 2009/11/25 01:23:46
So lead designer of Deus Ex 3 says: Ion Storm's original was "kind of slow" and had too few "exciting, memorable moments. There goes any hope I could have for that game...
Expect 20 min long cutscenes and Michael Bay style explosions...
Hmmm.
#17759 posted by Shambler on 2009/11/25 11:44:01
That sucks a bit. Deus Ex really was a very very good game indeed.
#17760 posted by Spirit on 2009/11/25 12:07:58
It still is. Each replay I had so far was great.
Well

For the people in charge if it doesn't have explosions and "WOW, AWESOME, COOL!" moments (think 14 year old after ten cans of Redbull) then its not a good game. 'I don't think we'll be able to sell this'.
Which is why stuff that's subtle or clever has a very tough time getting produced in the mainstream.
Typically a game that is of that ilk will try to hide its cleverness behind the odd generic gameplay setup or special fx fodder - so that the money men feel safe enough to invest.

Is Something Wrong With Me?
#17763 posted by Jago on 2009/11/27 09:37:05
For the past decade, I have always considered QuakeWorld to be THE ultimate deathmatch game and despite playing other games, I was always coming back to QW for some quick fragfests. I've had a pretty long break (like 2+ years) from QW and yesterday, I played a little bit of QW and a little bit of QuakeLive. I found QL to be genuinely more enjoyable.
Is something wrong with me?
Nope
#17764 posted by Spirit on 2009/11/27 09:42:18
QuakeLive is much easier to just play a quick game. There are always players in your skill level. There are many game modes. QuakeLive is much better than QuakeWorld in those terms. I do prefer the QW gameplay (physics and aircontrol mostly) though.
If QuakeLive would finally work with the OpenSound System I would play it much more than Quake/-World.
Ugh
#17765 posted by megaman on 2009/11/27 12:25:57
for duel, i dropped ql. It's mostly the map selection and the fact that some older maps are broken due to the gameplay changes, so there only are two maps left that are playable and fun (ztn and pt4).
Server Maintenance Downtime
#17766 posted by SleepwalkR on 2009/11/27 18:53:22
Hi folks, the server on which the forum is hosted is going down for maintenance this weekend. This will hopefully only take a few hours, but you know how it is with these things. Stuff may go wrong and it may take longer than expected. No worries though, everything will be backed up off site for great justice!

thanks for the heads up :)

What about dm6, dm13, t7, and t9?
There's a very active dueling scene in QL, I watch http://www.quake-live.tv/ alot to see the cool matches all the time.
Hmm
#17769 posted by nonentity on 2009/11/28 20:04:52
Yeh, the maps get played.
But all the 'pro' players are whining about it.
Afaik there's a 'contest' (it's some guy offering 50 euro) on ESR atm to suggest the best item/minor layout changes (jumppads and teles) for DM6 with the aim of persuading iD to make it...
