Holy Shit

thanks for bringing that to my attention. :)

Blargh 
Gotta love it. Just spent hours tweaking and optimizing my map to lower the edict count so that it wouldn't exceed the limit on the extra game mode where lots of stuff happens at once on mapstart. Then I marginally changed a gameplay situation to see how it would work out (basically only removed a counter and relinked a few corresponding relays) and suddenly the edicts load is down 20 (30) points for no apparent reason. Hooray for the waste of time and cut entities.
The pointe is that almost the same thing happened to me before when dealing with the bmodels limit... :P

Though it's always amazing how much you can do without using many additional entities, making ents execute two actions at once...

gb: shut up. ;) 
Bleh 
gb didn't shut #19024 up.
Hope he'll make it to the next 40.

There were some new uberengine under development. 
 
There is, but jdhack is too shy to release it. 
Heh 
 
Darkplaces 
is there a command similar to 'profile' in darkplaces? 'profile' seems to be removed. 
Hmm 
Why don't we have a comics thread? Does the book thread count?

Anyway, 'Lost at Sea' by Bryan Lee O'Malley is a most excellent stand alone piece. Cats. 
Skip The Comic Thread 
and just make a shrimpy and paul thread:

What In The Hell 
is that supposed to be!?!?!? 
Hm, I Got A New Video Card Fx5500 
for my 7 year old pc, and when im running quake with 1920x1080 resolution its seems too , hm ,high(tall), whats deal? (i'm got 16*9 monitor) the standard 1280*1024 looks good, fat and all that jazz, or is it just me? 
Hmm 
btw, i've expected somewhat higher performance from my new video card (agp fx5500-256mb and 128bit) instead of an old mx 440(64-64)


ps, i know, i know i have to buy a new PC....


hmm, addendum, the version of driver - 175.19_geforce_winxp_32bit_english_whql.exe

maybe i should change the driver ???
i got also
175.16_geforce_winxp_32bit_international_whql.exe
and 94 something...


help needed 
Btw 
i'm gonna connect the monitor via dvi cabel , instead of vga, i hope there's will be a difference 
 
With such an old card, using the latest drivers is not recommended. In many cases you get worse (sometimes considerably) performance. You should google around for a hint at which version might work best for your card, or at least which versions might be worth testing. Modified driver packs are worth a try, too. For example, the modified nvidia drivers at NGOHQ.com. 
Shit 
cable 
Negke 
i see,

at least i got fx5500 now $), my MB has an agp slot only,

this fall i'll buy a new PC, i got a question whats difference between i-5,7 and core2duo? 
Oh, 
one more addendum

using agguirres eng (1920*1080*32bpp) looks correct,

fitz85 (1920*1080*32bpp) looks tall (unusual) 
Spy 
I'm running a similar age card, 175.63 drivers work best for me.

And DVI cable does make a difference.

And DVI cable does make a difference.

i've got a question, so how i have to connect the dvi cable? when i connect it without vga cable, my monitor's just standing by and do nothing, so i'd connected both(either?) of the cables.

dvi and vga are working separately?
so when i got dvi cable connected i don't need vga cable connected. in this case my monitor doesn/t running

hell 
If This Is New ... Super-scary Shambler 
I don't have time to read back 30 pages to see if this is new:

http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2010/170/5/0/Shambler_remake_ingame_by_FredrikH.jpg

Download:

http://fredrikh.deviantart.com/art/Quake-Shambler-remodeled-168847712

I loaded this model in game and it truly conveys a frightening experience ... 
Frightening? 
Looks like that shambler has fucking eyes - that IS frightening. 
Pretty Cool 
But, yeah, the eyes..... 
Wet Shiny Muscles? 
Shamblers have fur. Also the proportions are all wrong, it looks like an ape. 
 
It looks out of place next to Quake's 8 bit rocks, lava and health cubes.

The model itself is very cool, but people loading this into normal Quake to "enhance" the experience evoke a slight facepalm from me.

Send a pic to id Software to taunt them?

Considering how easy it apparently is for someone on the internet to produce good looking monsters or weapon models, you have to ask yourself why it is so hard for big companies to make cool, entertaining games... and why it takes ages for someone like id Software to create content.
