My 2 Cents... 
Not to judge whether or not using Columbine in a title is a "good" or "bad" choice of words.

"Bowling for Columbine" = Oscar. 
Heh 
Completely ignoring whatever moral quibbles I may or may not have about this mod in particular, that statement, aside from being grammatically fucked up, is retarded enough that I actually reread it multiple times thinking I had to be misreading it.

It means that since you can't think outside your own boundaries, you haven't got a clue.

Frankly, whatever relative ignorance of art I have has very little to do with my morality.

My statement was letting you know that you were getting the two confused.

I wouldn't consider creating a game level where the player herds Jews into a furnace either, no matter how "artistic" it was, and that was a (relatively) long time ago.

Wow, that might be a fun game. Would you play the Nazis or the Jews? Can you imagine a game where you could micromanage Nazi Germany in WW2? That would be hideous!

But it's still war and war is hell. I think that just for you, and people like you, we'll have a special barrel of bloody fake boobs, from some of the cheerleaders. That will work well in the game I think. We can whip them at cops.

Starbuck: 
Good luck with your theme, I hope people stick to it and produce some good varied maps within that style....oh wait, it's speedmapping isn't it, okay, make that just varied maps within that style =).

My earlier suggestion was "terrain map with ancient/medieval setting" - thinking stuff like Swamp....n/m 
Heh Thanks 
if we have any success this time then maybe we can try your theme in an upcoming session 
Shambler 
sood good speedmaps have been made.
Why do you consistently prefer to be negative? 
Well To Be Fair 
a good speedmap is still not a good map :)

(join us tonight!) 
Yeah Well 
whatever. :)

Good job Starbuck on doing the speedmaps. 
I Am Sooo Happy

My complementary copy arrived yesterday, with that drawn inside. I am sooo happy and proud to have been involved in this book's creation (under the 'nym of Cardboard Box.)

Interview With John Carmack 
If anyones interested .......................

http://www.gamespy.com/quakecon2003/carmack/index.shtml 
From The Carmack Interview Above... 
GameSpy: As a triple-A company, can id work on any smaller ideas?

John Carmack: I thought it would be kind of neat if we took the DOOM renderer, and we had a team take previous games-don't touch the game, just revamp it graphically. Just take Quake II, and just use the DOOM engine to make brand new graphic models and everything. But don't spend time messing with the gameplay because we know that is pretty good. Just release it as Quake II Remix with brand new graphics technology and sell it at a middle-level price instead of a boutique price.

to highlight - "But don't spend time messing with the gameplay because we know that is pretty good"

fucking ROFL!!!!!!! 
Hmm 
I assume building all the content (textures, levels geometry and models) takes most time in the development process now. Thus remaking q2 would be almost as hard and timeconsuming as making a new shooter on d3 engine. 
Yeah, Unless Carmack Knows Something We Don't :) 
maybe id are planning to release their own quake retextured pack! 
From The Carmack Interview Above... 
You can decompose Pixar Renderman shaders into multi-passes

I often think that myself. :P 
O_0 
fucking ROFL!!!!!!!

My sentiments entirely.
He really hasn't got a clue about anything other than the engine, has he? 
No; He Has Other People For That 
Inside id there is a group that really, really does not want to do another sequel. 
Speedmapping Pack 45 Released 
get it at:
http://speedq1.spawnpoint.org/files/sm45.zip

proper news post to follow 
On The Other Hand... 
If he had said Quake 1 I would have been all for it... 
You Fuckers 
Quake 2 was great. 
Hey! 
We had cube-mapping, dot re-rendering, and geometry acceleration...

Common Carmack, just come out and say it, you love my Cube maps. 
Sm45 
Not bad at all. Daz's map was very interesting, but I couldn't exit the map. It also took me a while to figure out where the last monster were ...

Raptore's and Scampie's had good combat but were too dark IMHO.

Ray's map was ... crate ... 
Bah 
My map is un-completeable due to a few bugs that I didn't have time to fix :(

Also, the platforms a little screwed, but you can get to the top, so t3h new rule is:

If you get to the top and kill the enemies there, you win! :)
