I read func all the time, maybe as much as I participate at quakeone. I however, do not have 5 years and 5000ish posts here.

lucky y'all... :p

Seriously though, I was just hoping Baker or somebody might have an ETA when quakeone will be back up. 

Nice screenies. Me likey the rampant darkness.

I've read about that episode jam. It's Tronyn's project, right? I didn't find any thread for it here, where can I get some info? 

Looking good man. Liking the style! The only thing that sticks out to me is that the lighting looks really flat in the center two screenshots using the grey brick texture compared to all the rest.

Looking forward to the release/

@Mugwump

Thx. These screens are kinda outdated but still paying attention to the contrast. Constantly tweaking the lighting.

The episode jam is being organized on Discord but that's about all I know.

@Daz Hmmm i think you mean this shot? http://imgur.com/g5YcbjZ

These are really outdated shots. But if that's the shot you are referring to, I am using tyrutis-ericw tools "surface light" feature to get a glowing look similar to Minas Morgol.

thanks guys 

#29208 Yeah, like I said, 9 Q1SPs + Bloughsie's mini-ep... Forgot about SM178 but I did play it before I fell off the grid.

#29091 Hmmm... You must love me in secret, OTP! Still thinking about me 3 months after my vanishing, awww... How cute! FYI, the political definition kinda suits me but my own was more along the lines of the Burroughs/Cronenberg one. 

wOOt!! 

 

Also, fuck your hostility. 

is empty and full of info STILL! 

Don't be a penis. 

This is where I usually map.

I'm not sure how many people will care about this, but I recently discovered that Nvidia is now installing and enabling tracking and telemetry software with their drivers. I don't recall being asked for permission to do this during the install.

It can be disabled (supposedly) from the "Help" menu in the Nvidia control panel. I disabled it from the Windows services control panel, deleted all the folders and also added their various ip addresses into my hosts.

There is some useful information in this post:

I checked some of their log files and while I saw nothing suspicious, there is no guarantee that everything is logged. You know how companies are these days, give them an inch and they get greedy. 

Nice! Did you paint this yourself? 

I hope that AMD can catch up soon. Right now I'm honestly considering uninstalling the Geforce Experience shitshow and just using older drivers through Windows Update/Manual Downloads... 

ATI have always been one step behind Nvidia (with the exception of the famed 9800 Pro) and I don't see their situation becoming any different now that they're wearing the AMD brand. 

For Nvidia drivers I always use the custom option and only install the graphics driver and the PhysX software, so it's really annoying to find all this other crap running on its own. 

re: painting. Nope. And old friend of mine needed some money and I commissioned it. I've had is since about '98. Its 5 feet by 4! 

I seem to recall having plenty of beef with him about.....fuck knows what now. He was wrong for sure tho.

But now, loads of positive posts about Quake, maps, screenshots, other games, films. I think the beef season is definitely over :) 

Heh, I remember the shitstorm started when I called OTP out over something right after joining in.

I'm glad to see you've decided to bury the hatchet. Now if some others could do the same...

@dump Cool! I'm jealous. :) 

AMD also has really good open source Linux drivers by now, making it definitely more attractive than NVIDIA... using them right now, no hassle and works OOTB.

go AMD! 

It was working just fine a moment ago but now at the time of this writing it's giving me a 403 Forbidden page about accessing some "vbseo.php" file.

What in the world is going on with that site? 

 

 

It was good when it, err, nevermind.
