have to remember that 
 
all rules have exceptions to them as well :) 
Okay 
If that's true, there must be an exception to that rule itself, and thus your statement is wrong. 
EEk!

Is There Such A Thing As 
A hi-res version of Obtex texture set? I'm guessing not, but I thought it was worth asking :S 
Quirks Of Quake Damage Code... 
Just doing some code diving and found an interesting quirk, never noticed this before:

If you have the pentagram and some armor, it seems the pentagram will not prevent your armor from being depleted when you take damage. So i guess a player typically go all gung-ho and lose all their armor while fighting with the pent.

Anyone else know about that? Is it a desirable feature for some reason? 
 
i first noticed it when kell and i were implementing the cross of deflection.
i'm not really sure if it's a bug or not. in a way, it makes sense as the pentagram is making your body invulnerable, but not the mundane armour you're wearing. in that case, it's working as intended. 
Do You Guys Play Quake Much?? 
I've known that for 12 years or so!!

I'd say it's intentional. It makes the pent more of a temporary / tactical powerup. 
 
metlslime you are very distracted guy :) 
 
this is how the pent works. I thought it was logical. I knew it forever. 
I Didn't Know It 
 
Yeah 
I knew that pretty early on...

I can't see any gameplay advantage from it - bug. 
Noobs! 
</trinca>


i'm voting for no bug.. always seemed logical to me; both for the reason necros stated & also as it acts as a kind of tradeoff against using it when the player has a choice; as in, they can go bezerk with a close-up rocketlauncher for 30 seconds without risk of death, but will be weakened by the end of it.

you probably noticed godmode does the same... 
Not A Bug 
What necros said. 
 
my tendency is, not a bug. Magical protection for you, not necessarily your gear. Then again, I doubt that was the intention.

whatever works best. 
My New Inno3d Gtx 470 Has Malfunctioned Recently 
so now i have two choices, to wait and get another innovision gtx 470 card or get zotac gtx 470, that is cheeper to 50bucks and has 5 years warranty as opposite to inno3d (only) one year warranty, i've read some opinions about zotac vs inno3d, and it's seems that inno3d was(is) the wrong choice.

any suggestions, guys
