Cheers - that's it - mea culpa :}

Btw it's AWESOME - default sensitivities etc. are pretty much spot on - now I can sit back in a comfy chair and play quake and its the bestest thing in the world ever :D 

 

 

ur just jelli u don't have the gamepad skillz.

Doom was released not long after I got my first computer and it was one of the first PC games I played. Before it came out all I had on the PC was flight simulators and space combat game, so for the first year I played Doom I used a Thrustmaster joystick as the controller. 

Honestly, after 20+ years of playing console games I don't find controllers awkward to use in any way. I prefer them to mouse & keyboard because the level of comfort is incomparable. The only time I'd want to use a mouse & kb is for games that have complex controls like mmo games or rts or whatever. 

in QS and other engines has been lacking for quite a while. As superior as KB+M is there is still a problem with that setup for playing games on a couch in front of the telly box.

Also, wheres my splitscreen (yes, I am a pestering bastard but I fully intend on using this with my friends)

you know when there's a band you like, and then they do nothing for over a decade, but then suddenly you hear they've got a new single coming out, and ur all like "omg holy shit that band i like is back" and everyones excited and then the single comes out and you buy it and you listen to it and first you're not sure what to think of it and you look at your friend and he also has the same "i'm not sure what to make of this" look on his face and you listen to it again, and you sort of pretend to like it this time but deep down you're kinda thinking "what the fuck is this".

Just sayin. 

 

I don't really have anything to add to that comment so instead here's a gif of a pig taking a cat for a walk: http://i.imgur.com/oneWY9J.gif 

I mean, I kinda enjoyed Kinn during my teenage rebellion phase. But nowadays it's just lost its appeal... 

I seem to 100% of the time get a black screen when I start up the sdl2 version. To fix it, I alt-tab to desktop, then alt-tab into the game again.

Doesn't happen with the non-sdl2 version.

Anyone else getting this?

I'm guessing that you have an Optimus laptop from the "M" in your GPU model number.

I was able to 100% reproduce this on a similar system, but only when running under the Intel graphics card. When running under the NVIDIA (either by right-clicking and selecting "Run with graphics processor" or by creating a profile in the NV control panel) it behaved properly. 

Holy shit - I had no idea I was running it all this time on my crappy intel card thing. Whoa. Cheers! 

On Windows the NvOptimusEnablement (there's an AMD equivalent too) export can be set to fix this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17458803/amd-equivalent-to-nvoptimusenablement

Only thing is, for some rendering workloads the Intel is actually the faster GPU in this kind of configuration - especially if it's a HD4000 or better. Quake falls into this category; what happens is that Optimus with the NV must transfer the framebuffer to the Intel for presenting, but Quake rendering is so lightweight that doing the transfer takes longer than just doing everything on the Intel. 

Not sure if this has already been requested, but it'd be a real time saver I think.

Predictive text for commands. Just like on swyftkey or similar, you type a letter and behind it the engine fills in, in grey, any possible command pertaining to that letter.

If you hit enter then it completes the command in text, if not then you carry on typing as normal.

Adding custom keybinds is all very well... but if prediction was a base feature then it'd remove a lot of this piddling about for most if not all users.

Just a thought. 

it exists, start typing something then press tab 

Thanks! 

Not exactly what I meant though - I know what the commands are already. 

keep hitting tab and you won't have to type the rest 

ijed is learning about tab completion in 2016?

fte does exactly what ijed is talking about with the show the command before you type it thing.

In theory it sounds great.
In practice it is a horror.

It doesn't know what you are going to type and instead annoys the F out of you autocompleting something random you aren't looking for --- and in doing so --- ruining your train of thought. 

(Hehe, I should have softened that up a bit and wordsmithed it a little before clicking submit.

The effort to write that feature is great, but the way an advanced engine will have 1000 cvars and commands and most of them are things an average user is never looking for --- this causes the end result to be undesirable.

In my opinion ;-) ... 

I'm still requesting this feature for Quakespasm : the ability to quick load a random map from the whole list by typing a simple command in the console.

Please, I need this, built-in !
