i've not even been able to run winquake since i first upgraded to xp.. 10 years ago? i've always kept it in my quake folder though cos i use the icon for .qc files :) 

Kinn, do you still have the sources for Bastion and Marcher? 

I would be interested in those to test my editor's performance. 

Sleepy, if you're looking for maps with a large number of brushes, you can also try my 768 source, it has around 11000. I don't know if the sources of Ricky's base maps, especially the RMQ one, are available, but those should be extreme as well. 

Thanks, looks like the editor runs that map absolutely smoothly. But can you give me the texture wad? There seems to be a glitch with the textures and I'd like to check it out. 

I would have to extract it from the BSP. Can you do that? TexMex or similar on OS X? 

Maybe I can get it to run in my Win7 VM 

That worked fine. Thanks!

I'm sure I must have somewhere, but right now I dunno where the hell they are - probably on a cd stashed in some obscure cupboard in an only partially explored area of my parent's house. I'll have a dig around next time I'm up there. 

That would be awesome, Kinn! 

to look at the qc src too! that q2 to q an infantry dude looks incredible.

Is there enough interest (ie, any at all) for a map scrap dump + mapping project? Or maybe just a map scrap dump?

Even a small project emphasizing pretty set pieces out of scraps would be pretty cool. I know I've got plenty of half-finished maps and the like to provide if anyone is interested. 

I think some people already posted scraps in the GPL thread. Tronyn and czg have or had zip with a whole bunch of unfinished stuff. Mostly useless, but some nice bits, too.

I'm hesitant with advocating a scrap dump, because I fear necros might just throw out all his unfinished stuff, and that must not happen! ;)

If you want to pass that metal map back and forth, I can play ball with you ;-) 

I think I have actually used almost all of my own scraps up in various maps over the last few years. I could still find the zip file somewhere and upload it though, but I expect anyone who has a look to recognize most of the scraps from actual map releases. If anyone has CZG scraps though, that'd be awesome. 

Random request/suggestion for Quaketastic. Can you change the date display to also show the year a file was uploaded? Right now it's kind of useless without. Also, this may be just a personal peeve, but I hate the image previews/thumbnails on folders (main index). They should be shown only for the image file itself inside the folder. 

You can change the image thumbnails showing up or not yourself - use the options combo box thing at the top. It's un-intuitive as hell but you'll figure it out :).

I can look into the date thing when I get some time... 

Ah, I never noticed the options menu. Though it's already too late (harm's been done) when I'm on the site. Besides, I assume it requires cookies to make them stay off? 

Hey, that was easy! OK, year is now displayed and I went ahead and added 100MB to the upload limit since some people complained in the past. 

OK, and I changed it so the folder thumbnails default to off now... 

Now that's what I call proper service.

Just some dudes thoughts on the original Doom, but its well researched and interesting. 

That WAS really good, thanks!
