Talk about anything in here. If you've got something newsworthy, please submit it as news. If it seems borderline, submit it anyway and a mod will either approve it or move the post back to this thread.

I Have A Stats For You.

At 47 maps in 2018 so far, we're better than we were in 2017, with 46 maps released by the end of June.

Frecache Preachache

Why do we still care if a model is precached?

Sweet. I was just taking a look at the spreadsheet. Thanks for keeping track.

I recorded a blind playthrough of "The Tenacious Tentacle" by Socks, and since there is no official post of this map in the foruns i will just post it here:

But, seriously, why isn't a post about this level here? I only found it by accident (i never search for new maps in Quaddicted because I thought all new maps were posted first here in func_) The map was released this year, it uses AD monsters, it was made only with 100 brushes (so mappers can use it as a reference for the 4° competition) and it's awesome =D

You can download it here: https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/ad_b100_sock.html

Good Point About The 100 Brush Reference

Haven't checked that map out yet, but it looks good.

I'm trying to contact Breezeep, does anyone have his email address?

But, seriously, why isn't a post about this level here? I'm not sure why any map author would avoid posting here but I have my suspicions.

Is that QSS-Admod in the video? Looks good. :)

Yep, it is the QSS-Admod engine =D

Yes, Tronyn?

New Map

#30212 posted by headshot on 2018/05/12 10:00:12

Hello everybody,

since I stopped mapping around 1999 I'm a bit rusty at this and need some pointers. A while ago I finally tried out SleepwalkR's truly excellent TrenchBroom for the first time seriously and made a small DM map with it, which I quite like. Now it's more or less done and I'm looking for a way to share it and maybe get some feedback. Is there currently something like a repository or a place where people look for Q1 DM maps? Or do you just upload it somewhere and post a link here? Are there still review sites? Do people even play custom DM maps anymore?

Anyway, any help with this would be appreciated muchly.

http://www.quaketastic.com would be an easy place to upload it.

Just make sure you pick the right directory unlike most people uploading there... :P

Hello!

People usually use quaketastic.com to upload maps. Login info here: http://celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=3&start=15658

Also, here on func is news thread, just submit news with short description of the map, sceen and download link. So after news is approved it'll have its separate thread.

Hope this helps!

Headshot!

A new headshot map, omg!
I'd be up for giving it a spin online if that's happening.

Not much multiplayer going on around these parts anymore, the focus has mostly shifted to singleplayer maps.

#30217 posted by negke on 2018/05/12 10:33:34

I think even the dedicated DM players left don't care that much for new maps, though you may want to post it at quakeworld.nu for feedback. No review sites to my knowledge.

Of course, it's always possible to throw in some monsters and we'll be all over it.

Thanks!

#30218 posted by headshot on 2018/05/12 10:50:12

Thanks for the quick answers and great info! I just need to sort out a few niggles and then I'll upload a beta somewhere and post a link here, maybe we can meet on a server (Bal, anyone else?) and see what's what. The tricky part would probabaly be to meet there at the same time :-)

It'd be nice to get some feedback on balance and maybe sticky parts to clip before release.

You can try posting here: https://www.quakeworld.nu/forum/12/maps-textures
Also if you are not afraid of new "tech" you can try Quake World Discord channel: http://discord.quake.world/

General Data Protection Regulation

#30222 posted by brassbite on 2018/05/13 18:27:35

Could this new EU-law affect func?
Anybody know something?

#30223 posted by brassbite on 2018/05/13 18:33:07

My guess: Somebody would have to sue func i.e. metl, in order for anything to happen at all.
As there is nothing to win from that conflict, nothing happens and we all keep our status quo.

Well

#30224 posted by anonymous user on 2018/05/13 22:36:00

Func could stop exposing everyone's IP address for a start.

It's funny how func doesn't require anyone's details or even an email address to create an account, but then exposes your ip on every post.

I guess that's why a lot of us use TOR when posting on func.

Fuck Off Everybody Who Uses TOR.

Well, otp hates me, so I must be doing something right.

#30228 posted by brassbite on 2018/05/13 23:33:01

What specific harm could hit my devices, because of my IP-adress being revealed? Viruses homing in on me like a Vore-ball?
