There are plenty of people/companies who snatch up domains as soon as they expire, and direct them to a generic ad-portal type thing. I assume Peej let the domain expire, and this is what happened. 

I guess that's not what happened at all, once i read the fine print at the bottom. 

It only happens with this site, everything else is fine. Sometimes it loads fine, but more often than not, it's slow. Oh well, as long as I can still get here I guess. I'm from Awstraylya, as I think is Nitin. 

does celephais.net load slowly, too? 

No, thats super fast. Since my last post (03:25:56 Board Time) this has been the first time I have been able to access Func_ 

Having said that, every time I have tried to access celephais.net I haven't been able to load the site at all. Same as Func_ really :( 

Having said that, every time I have tried to access celephais.net since, I haven't been able to load the site at all. Same as Func_ really :( 

Flash movie use the Quake rocket launcher?

Never said in the credits. 

But it's quite possible that the original Quake rocket launcher sound came from a sound effects CD, in which case it's perfectly legitimate that it's used in that movie.

All this goes back to the Oh-I-was-watching-a-sci-fi-movie-and-a-door-opened-and-it-sounded-like-Doom effect that sometimes happens because the sound came from a sample CD and wasn't created from scratch.

nice. could be intersting to americans... 

Didn't Trent work on all sounds as well as the music?

Also yeah.. I've noticed Doom sounds in "The Santa Clause" and other movies 

Didn't Trent work on all sounds as well as the music?

If by "work on" you mean "rip from the CD and place directly into the game", then yes. The ogre sound effects are also used in Duke Nukem 3D for the pigcops. If I'm not mistaken, Duke3D was released before Quake; therefore, not all sound effects were original to either game. 

There's an interview with Reznor somewhere where he mentions that some of his original sound effects were considered too scary or something...

And yes, the pigcop's sight sound is that of the ogre, just slowed down. In rooting about in Build-based game files, I've noticed that sometimes the sound effects are grotesquely stretched... 

yeah, if you open up some ofthe Q1 sounds and squash them, they sound like the sound engineer gargling into a mic
Who knows... 

func was just really slow for me for about one hour. Now it seems fine. 

looks pretty cool and atmospheric, gameplay is sucky as you'd expect but I didnt even think this could be done with this engine :

i don't remember you guys had music in there. i haven't had time to download them either. 

Mind if I rip your bit on TEAMShambler about allocating more RAM to Quake and put it in my next map's readme? 

No I don't mind, go for it (maybe a "Taken from www.teamsmabler.com" would be appropriate). 

I don't beleive I know this site "teamsmabler" 

you still having probs loading Func_ Msgboard?

It's becoming very hard for me to access the site at all. :(

Sometimes, about 1% of the time, it's as if nothings wrong, then it all goes south. Most times I don't even get enough time to read all the unread threads before it refuses to load again.

yes, it is.

Sometimes I just keep on trying http://celephais.net till it gets through and then go the board, seems to work better at times then trying to come straight here. 

Maybe you're doing it wrong. ;)
