Let it be one of those Quake mysteries that people will come across in 10 years time and wonder "what the fuck was THAT all about then?" 

that has been commented here a lot

1 hour of a guy explaining needless stuff, while missing the point most of the time, and mentioning Duke3D way too often. I hope OTP will correct him. 

The birth of Team Shambler. 

BTW posting anonymously to drive-by-poop on things was old when Quake was young. 

This is kinda funny — this flickering light pattern from quake is still around and can be seen in Half Life Alyx:

but not quite as cool as:

// johnfitz new lightstyles
// 12 ALARM PULSE
lightstyle(12, "zxvtrpnlj");

// 13 STROBE-PULSE COMBO (first variety)
lightstyle(13, "jalanaparatavaxazaxavatarapanala");

// 14 STROBE-PULSE COMBO (second variety)
lightstyle(14, "zaxavatarapanalajalanaparatavaxa");

// 15 VANITY
lightstyle(15, "johnfitzgibbons");

// 16 LANDING BEACON STROBE
lightstyle(16, "mmaammaammaammaa");
 

Can a protocol 666 demo be somehow modified to be a protocol 15 demo? 

in theory yes, by stripping out the extra data (protocol 666 is basically 15 plus extra data) but... a custom tool would need to be written to do this. 

BJP's convdem can convert 10002 to 15, so in theory it should have much of the code to handle 666 as well. That is, if he still has the source code.

Im just here to say that im new here and I am working on my first maps for Quakes 25 anniversary. 

Hi, tell me more about your cards) What's the idea and what have you already done?) 

Do you mean maps? 

Feel free to post screenshots in the screenshots thread when you are ready to show stuff! 

I posted screenshots in the screenshots area.

Today is the day
here is my first real maps.
Again the maps have no real story. I am using progs_Dump and I have some custom enemies using it.Also every main map has a dopefish secret!

I saw this news story today:

Sounds like a lot of links people have posted to shared files are going to break due to a privacy change. Searching Func, there are about 242 posts or threads that contain google drive links. In some cases they are just secondary mirrors and the file is also on Quaketastic. In other cases they are the only download link.

Not sure if anything can be done about it. The only way to get a working link again, according to google, is to re-share it to get a new, working URL. So the owner of each file would need to do something manual for each file, AND the new url would have to added to each thread.
