Same issue from #2671 also with w1m7 of "Realm of the Lost" ("Host_Error: AllocBlock: Full" when loading the map). Also, music tracks from that mod won't work (with odd numbers like track15.ogg, track29.ogg, track117.ogg). Everything works fine with Quakespasm 0.93.2.

Any chances of seeing an update with latest Quakespasm limit changes (dynamic lightmaps allocation, BLOCK_WIDTH/HEIGHT 256, MAXALIASTRIS 4096, MAX_STATIC_ENTITIES 4096, MAX_STACK_DEPTH 64, cmd buffer size 256K, MAX_EFRAGS/MAX_MAP_LEAFS limits removed)? It's about time since more and more recent maps stop working with this otherwise still fantastic port. 

Hello just downloaded this port today and I love it. I play a lot of NetQuake and am very excited to play this online but sometimes I don't fire when pressing mouse 1 and sometimes it sticks and doesn't stop firing. I have another friend who experiences the same issue. I have updated all my drivers and that did not fix it. I will try to go back to 1036 it seems some have to do that. 

I raised my FPS cap from the default 72 to 150 slightly above my monitors refresh rate and this seemed to fix the sticky mouse issue. Had two of my friends test this also and it seemed to fix it for them as well. Even though they had 60 hz monitors raising the FPS cap above 144 seemed to help their mouse not stick. 

Anyone had this problem? Switched over to Win10 x64. Tried Mark V, the sound is fine but laggy - not choppy but with big delay rather - even in main menu, press up or down to move the "Q", and sound comes in like 2 seconds later.

No such issue in Quakespasm. 

Mark V: How Do I Disable Autoaim [EDIT]

I've been really getting into Mark V on my potato of a pc with little to no hope of open gl rendering, and Mark V seems to be the best
But it took me a while to notice some autoaim
Anyone know how to toggle this on/off?

sv_aim 1 

Navigate to your id1 subdir and open config.cfg with a text editor. Search for the sv_aim entry. Default setting is 0.93. Change that value to 1 (so it reads sv_aim "1"), save and there you go. 

Hello, the source code does not seem to be distributed with the installer, or zip. And Googling around, I haven't had any luck. Is there a link to the release source code? Thanks! 

on the website there is a part where it says "Current source code (download | all builds ..)" 

where it says: "New version available"... 

please say you are forking this and working on some fixes - Mark V is very close to a perfect source port IMO. 

The minimum that should be done is to raise limits to match latest Quakespasm so that newer maps run again. Would also like to see some of the (re)introduced bugs fixed that I mentioned earlier on, but Baker needs to show up again first. 

I'm not yet knowledgeable enough to do that. But if I get there, I would love to. I also think MV is pretty golden, and just needs a few bug fixes. My most pressing issue is that the "firing" mode seems to get stuck randomly and my character just shoots a bunch until I span my keyboard to try to stop it. 

Also don't forget it doesn't support raw mouse input, physics breaks above 72fps, more restricted limits, etc.

The features it does have are pretty good though and the WinQuake software executable is probably the best part about it. If whatsisname sorts out the major drawbacks then it might be preferable over QSS/vkQuake. 

I think MV does ease of use the best, built-in mouse support, and keeps the menu and interface clean and straight forward. (also like that it's self contained into one .exe) @dumptruck_ds has a nice video highlighting these nice features: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMOF3l2MtlI

QSS does not have mouse menu support and vkQuake also lacks mouse support in menus. 

Hello,

I have cloned the source code to a GitHub repository. And updated build instructions for Windows 10, using Visual Studio Community 10 (the oldest available VS IDE). https://github.com/victorbstan/mark_vi

This initial repository is aimed at providing a place for future updates and modernization of development and community contributions. I wan to make it easier for people to contribute code and updates to the engine. Ideally the original creator would move to GitHub as well, so I don't maintain redundant code. Otherwise I will try to integrate updates as they become available.

Next steps, I would like to set-up and test a modern build environment for the GitHub repo, so that developers can use the latest tools to contribute. 

If anybody increased the engine limits I mentioned in #2684 with this Github mirror and create usable x64 binaries, it would at least be a start and a welcome update after this long time without any changes.

I would be willing to test the problems I had reported earlier again if anybody was willing to look into them and fix anything that can be fixed.
