HEY SPIRIT 
get rekt!

TFW you compile something and the compiler decides it needs to check out 806 files, even though it only modifies 3 of them, and then goes ahead and checks them out one at a time, each operation taking a second, the actual compile takes 15 seconds. 
 
is that feeling 'so bored you go post on func' 
I Was Going To Put It On Facebook First. 
But then I realized I'd get about zero likes so it might as well go here.

Hello, I've just replayed this map

https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/dm1m1.html

and all it is really missing is an exit trigger that leads into dm1m2. I see that the lunar maps have exit triggers added, can somebody make an exit trigger for this map? 
Quake II On Old Hardware 
I found this channel via the Youtube related videos list completely by chance. Someone else might enjoy it too.

Douglas Little is developing a port of Quake II for Atari Falcon030. It's a bit of a challenge, as it is a computer from the early 90s with a 16MHz CPU. He is making some nice progress nevertheless.

He has also written a port of Doom for the same hardware. There are videos from it on the channel too.

..about Quake Mental (in)sanity 
Hi guys, here's my story for you:

seven years ago I started collecting Quake maps(sp/dm that is) not willing to play any of them before getting them all !
So I've surfed ALL the web to reach my goal and now I'm finally done !
I've burned them maps on a DVD-DL(8gb) and within next days I'll begin to play them.. oh lucky me !

ps: downloading all the maps I could find(sorted by authors !?!) has been a titanic effort and put my mental sanity to test ! 
Lol! 
holy shit dude is it April fool's yet?

I too have an obsessive nature, we're all probably a little OCD, but unless being an archivist is your thing, you have to admit that your experience of the art you're collecting (maps, whatever it might be) is going to be fragmentary - but that lets you focus again on the experience, which is the whole point after all. Gaining a complete, comprehensive, or even uncontroversially representative overview of a field as gigantic as custom quake maps, is probably not possible! 
Yeah... 
! :) 
 
Or by the time he's done he'll be a bigger expert than any of us.

How big is the quaddicted archive? Does it have 8gb worth of Q1SPs? 
 
micholas: Nice! Don't forget to eat every once in a while :)

Maybe rate them all as you play them on Quaddicted? I am not sure about the statistics right now but I think so far no one even rated 50% of them.

I wonder how long it would take playing through them all casually some hours day by day (and how exhaustion makes later maps "worse"). We should definitely attempt some collective marathon over qexpo 2016!

lun: I think it is about 1.8 gib q1sp and 3 gib multiplayer. Haven't checked in ages and my memory might be wrong. 
Ahah 
I'm sure having downloaded possibly every single map/mod sp and also dm (but for dm I made some sort of "natural" selection:))but ..believe me the hardest part was that damn portal Gamers.org/levels/deathmatch !God it was huge !

Among the rarities I've found come to mind those "VictoryPlanet" TotalConversions by DanielKuciel but really.. I got them all !

Only problem is they are sorted by authors so finding specific maps will not be easy.. I'll play them by chance :)

I look forward to play Tronyn,Necros,FatController,NeilManke,Kona maps and those big mappacks(Nehahra,UrthMajik,Travail,Warpspasm, and God only knows what else !)

Do you think a single life will be enough ? 
 
If you don't mind.... it would be cool if you tracked your level times for each map and then added them up later. I'm guessing that time will be quite long indeed! 
Sure.., 
get your other single life back in nightmare mode. 
Playin' Every 'kin' Quake Map 
If you play by map name you might get to mine in about 5 years, but if you play by author, you won't live long enough ;) 
 
Come plan the most awesome qexpo 2016 if you are a DOer.

thanks for recommended requiem, Nehahra works great now. Only minor bug is that skyboxes seem to move a little when you walk.run towards them (eg start of both neh2m4 and neh2m2).

But I am just glad it works now. 
Here's The Results Of My 7 Years Archiving Work ! 
total authors (1 folder per author): 1200
total files (maps,mods,..): over 5000

At first my attention was only to collect single-player stuff.. but then I found that a guy called Aardappel created that DMSP mod (converting dm maps into sp ones!)so.. eheh I let you figure out what I did :)

MikeWoodham: I like your mapping-style so I assure you that it won't be long before playing your maps :)
