How did i forget that :( 

It was 12 years ago ;-) 

I made this picture a long time ago, just dug it up again, might be interesting:

I guess the blue ones are the still active or somewhat recent projects. 

I'll def use this in the video. Thanks! 

Ah that's a neat diagram. 

Yesterday some /vr/-tard came up with a Darkplaces-only Quake map that supposedly fries most non-NASA computers, mine simply crashes to desktop upon trying to load it since its an old POS. Anyone willing to provide footage of it? DL link:

I couldn't get it to run on Darkplaces, but I did on QSS (at 3FPS with protocol FTE999, "0FPS" with protocol 666). Mark V, vkQuake and QuakeSpasm all give the same error:

Host_Error: SZ_GetSpace: overflow without allowoverflow set

As for the actual map, it's just 8064 grunts and 32 torches in a big room; nothing interesting, although it seems like QSS can't render all of them at once, so about 1/3 of them are invisible. Using notarget to prevent them from attacking me, I get about 30FPS with them on screen.

me: shoots grunt

centerprint: "there are 8063 to go..." 

Sorry for bothering then, I hoped its something decent design-wise and the 'pushing all of the engine limitations' bit in description made me think of something on like "nuts.wad - but for quake" - thanks for screengrabs though 

Well that just sucks - thanks for the screenshots though 

^previous reply (#31810) didnt appear for me on time so I've unneccessarily made a shortened dupe of it :^\ 

I'm assuming this is just Chrome but any links to Quaketastic will not open by default in Chrome. I need to "Open in a New Tab" to download anything.

Not sure there's anything that can be done. (No, I'm not using a different browser.) But figured I'd bring it up. 

It's a problem with opening download links to HTTP websites from a HTTPS website.

Quaketastic moving to HTTPS would solve this problem. 

I just tried it, I get the same issue. I hadn't noticed before today because I rarely use chrome. 

 

I've put the latest DirectFitz source here: https://github.com/mhQuake/DirectFitz

There are probably other copies of it kicking around the internet, but this is the most recent one I have and it may or may not contain stuff that's not been publicly released before. Including some of the rants I used to do in comments :)

I often suspect that a lot of the differences between the 2 APIs were down to bloody-mindedness more than anything else. The designers deliberately doing things the opposite way to put people's noses out of joint and try start a good entertaining fight. 

 

No, they are not, you absolute piss stained idiot. 

E1M2 remixes... I know there's one in Quoth, and there's also Beep's map... any others?
