I think Del Toro sometimes overcooks his creature designs a bit, but I was still gutted when Mountains of Madness was canned. Seeing his Old Ones would have been worth the price of admission.

Also, we really need a cthulhu icon. Here's a nice cute one I found: http://rozstaje.silverion.org/forum/images/smilies/icon_cthulhu.gif

Breakfast classic of the outer spheres. 

Ah'bthnk Pigthulu y'hah, btw. 

but curing 

That is not fat which can eternal cure, yet with stranger eons, even bacon may fry 

Madfox, you're up! 

light of the sun takes 100.000 years to reach surface,
yet it's gone three times faster within a second.

pavlov

shoot the button 

The secret button, that is. 

poor swine 

Anyone going to gdc this year?

Would be awesome to meet some of you in person at last and shoot the shit, play games and party :)

I'll be in SF from the 15th to 25th, so if you want to meet up, let me know here or by email (andyp . 123 @ gmail . com) 

I am not really a game developer, nevertheless it could have been really interesting for me to attend.. If only my trip to San Diego have benn closer in time (I'll be in San Diego by 24th to 228th of March)... I could have spent some time going there... just for fun ;)

4th is so far the better ! 

Hey guys, I have to render 4500 frames of ugly animation for a university project. If I would render only on my own machine, it would take 16 days. So while this is not a VIS job for a new Quake map, I am hoping for some people who would let their machines run overnight for some days for me.

It uses Blender so you would not have to install anything. You would have to download ~230MB of data from me. Blender is just about 100MB and you just unpack it, no installation needed! http://www.blender.org/download/

Hardware needed:
- Either a fast CPU (i5 or better) or a

- nvidia card with CUDA level 2 or higher and more than 1GB of GPU RAM, here is a list: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus
A 560 works well (if you have the 2GB edition)

~4GB RAM I think

Some decent upstream bandwidth would be nice because you would need to upload ~5MB per frame back to me.

Detailed instructions, some small setup steps and more either in IRC or via mail.

Pretty please! 

make me happy

So, quake remake?

a Quake remake on Epic's technology would be the ultimate closure on the engine wars that started way back with Doom. Sweeney may not be a rocket scientist like Carmack but it looks like he's won this one, whether any such symbolic coup appears or not.
