I'll check the Mindgrid pack, thanks for pointing it out Jonas.

Ranger sounds and monsters were probably done by NIN
I know for a fact that Ranger is Trent himself. You can actually recognize his voice in Ranger's pain scream.

You know you can use PakExplorer to audition sounds
Yes, but the original Quake sounds were in 22kHz. I could convert them easily but since I intend to use some heavy time stretch, I'd prefer 44kHz versions to avoid too much digitalization effect.

Plus, there is the legal aspect. The collection they're from is commercial, proprietary, they're not even id software property.
I don't think Trent Reznor is too uptight about the legal thing. He's made plenty of his material available in multitracks for remixers and he's even released music under CC license.

Thanks for the link, dumptruck, but 3 bucks per sample? That's a bit much... 

So I am. Been waiting for this all week.

Looking very promising :) 

Do you really have to take actual pictures of your screen? 

wow that z-fighting 

It's a link to a video. Just having some fun. 

I think the /photos/ part of the address might have misled me...

Might as well repost this here, then: Zonk! 

 

Posting on an epic thread 

Go map another house negke: https://www.youtubecom/watch?v=kLCaHaCriLc 

I didn't know where to put this so I figured GA would do:

My system isn't very stable lately and I'm experiencing random crashes, not sure why. It happened while I was playing ad_sepulcher. I was around 2/3 through the map, having spent a few hours in it (I'm a slow player, especially when there's so much to look at).

The problem is that the crash seems to have corrupted my quicksave. When I try to reload it I get the following message:
Host_Error: ED_ParseEntity: EOF without closing brace
Is there a way to somehow repair my save or is all the time invested in this map gone for good? 

on quakeone or my email if you know it. I'll try to fix it for you. 

Weird.. though if your system crashed part way through writing the .sav, that would make sense. Mind uploading or emailing me your .sav file?

I did change the QS/QS-Spike .sav loading code for ad_sepulcher so I want to make sure it's not an engine bug. 

There's no F12 for an IPA! ;)

Trying to finish "The End of Solace" before jumping into Mapjam 9999.

That list on the right has laundry and dishes. Guess what didn't happen tonight? 

 

I thought ericw was mugwump replying to me. Nevermind my last post. 

Download save file here. Thanks guys!

@dumptruck_ds Is "The End of Solace" the map you're currently working on? Why not finishing it after the jam? 

Because I am SOOOO close. 

the crash didn't occur during a save. 

I don't see how there could be that many nulls generated by fprintf, and without valid trailing data, looks to me like the corruption is happening outside of quake.
Checking the return value of fclose might show whether the system actually saved it properly without any bus errors, but really that's only useful for testing if the disk was full. any other issue is much more serious such that it wouldn't really be practical to recover from. 

That save doesn't look salvagable, unfortunately, 75% of the file is filled with null bytes. :(

Might be worth running prime95 overnight to check system stability? 

Alright, so restart it is, then... Thanks anyway.

Oh, BTW Eric: I think MarkV has a multi-quicksave feature which prevents just that. If one save fails to work, at least you can go back to a previous one. Could be borrowed for QS. 

any plans on adding this feature to QS? 

may i ask you

what's the status of your upcoming thief project

any release date?
