And The First Crash 
yeah, fuck it. 
Anyone 
anyone happen to have the textures from Unreal around for Quake? I don't see them on Quaddicted (I'm looking for the medieval ones used in Sunspire and Dm-Curse etc), or even the name of a map that uses a lot of them that I could extract them from. 
 
other maps that use the medieval bricks are the nali castle.

you're going to want to extract the nalicast.utx file for those.

they're great textures, btw. hope to see something cool out of them. :) 
If You Make A Wad 
can you please make it available at Quaddicted so everyone can use it? Thanks! 
Legal Issues? 
 
Legal Issue... 
I made Doom3 hi-res texture down-conversion to Quake wad format some years ago, and this legal issue poped-up at this time... and I remember the discussion was already "tough"...
Basically, reusing part or all content of any game is prohibited, and it cannot be modified, neither re-selled...(please forgive me if it is a too short summary of the legal content :P), but this is the way I understood it...

But, as far as I know, if the rule would strictly apply, nor game mods neither partial conversion could not be possible at all.. and I am not even talking about mapping.. though..
So I would say (and I know some people will not be happy me saying that), as long as you are down-grading hi-res texture, and as long as you are not doing business with it (i.e no commercial purpose to make money), you are more or less safe.. It clearly depends what you are aiming there, and how the company you are "modifying" its property will react on..

In anyway, good luck, and please ask Spirit to host the resulting wad on Quaddicted ;) 
Wads On A Textured Mind... 
If I not forget you already did the Q2wad.

When I converted the first q2 level to see if they would fit I was surprised to see reactions.
Some blamed me I used the q2map for my own purpose, other praised me for a good map.

But most of all, it was my first "nice" map after all my average attemps. 
Tronyn... 
It Also Unreal? 
Yes 
:) 
Awesome!! 
Thanks! 
Sweet 
I totally forgot about SkyCity. Makes me want to play through Unreal SP sometime, it had some cool maps. That opening castle was so badass at the time.

I didn't press twice :( 
Yes, You Did 
Spaz. 
Quick Question: 
Why do all games and almost all other programs leave so many entries in the registery after you uninstall them?? Why can't the uninstall process include deleting all those entries??

Always confused me... 
It's Like Leaving A Tag On A Wall 
To prove they were there. And because they are lazy. Ideally, one should install programs with an installation manager that logs all changes and is capable of unstalling everything completely. 
 
such as your brain, guided by millions of stickies on your monitor. Software isn't up to that standard yet.

Package managers? Pah. 
 
does left over registry entries matter though? i mean, presumably, only the application in question is going to actually use them so if it's gone, it's just a bunch of data doing nothing. 
_iSad_ 
Steve jobs has died today. This man was a marketing genius and for sure a visionary in computing. He made Apple an awesome company, producing marvelous products.
RIP Steve, I'll miss you. 
In Honour Of Steve 
Today I wore running shoes... inside the house! Couldn't find a turtleneck, sorry buddy. 
 
R.I.P

fucking cancer... 
I Was Never A Fan Of Apple 
But it is a real sad thing nonetheless. The guy was very young, and certainly a character who many people loved and admired. 
 
I don't really feel any kind of sadness that Steve Jobs is gone. He had a great life and accomplished more in his life time than I will in mine.
