How does he "not have the insight to proclaim this"? Just because he's observed something that you haven't doesn't make that observation objectively wrong.
For my part as somebody who's lurked on the fringes of the Quake 1 community on various forums for 20-odd years I can see how a complete newcomer or somebody with "particular sensitivities" might find certain aspects a little intimidating or potentially unwelcoming. Your own conduct on func_ the past two weeks has been almost exclusively argumentative and unrelated to Quake. I know you're not representative of func_, but a first-timer might see your rant on the Beef thread and just think "ugh, another online community of grouchy old farts more interested in settling personal scores than talking about their common hobby". First impressions matter. Its a beef thread, what interest other than rubbernecking drama could there be to go peruse that thread?
If someone is looking for first impressions there they will be no better served than in any other established community, should that community allow such a thread to exist for its own entertainment or whatever other reason. Mapping advice, inspiration, map comments/reviews etc are the relevant hobby part of func. I did apologize for misplacing my beef with Dumptruck in the wrong thread, am fine with someone deleting it in that thread as it was pretty irrelevant to the re-release. That's a fair point, and I don't want you to feel I've singled you out as the cause of Robert Yang's claim, I just think it's a bit rich to try and refute his experience when it's clear that there are elements of the community that could appear narcissistic or downright unpleasant to outsiders. It's also important to note that he didn't claim the Quake community is unique in this way.
terrafusion, and by extension func, is</> curmudgeonly and unpleasant and abusive at places, it practically prides itself on that. This is not debatable, lol. Most other forums don't have "beef threads".
However, the individuals who made it that way are now the same ones distancing themselves from it, which I agree is hypocritical. Some of those may or may not have been contacted for the RPS article. :---) All mod with just 1 Launcher
For moment 200 300 maps on this launcher. If i finish propely this one i upload for all players. i use QuakeSpasm Spike Engine. Easy install drag and drop https://postimg.cc/3026H3YR The project is still progressing to make it available to all I had to protect my ftp, encode and encrypt the archives.
The only way will be to use the script. If you want the mods the user will have to go through the sources like Quaddicted the links will be displayed on each mod in the launcher. The launcher will allow you to install the mods one by one to save space. If one mod is dependent on another, it will install the dependency on you. I return work on. "It's Called The Quake Injector Dumb Ass."
ok child i know quake injector. But I think you're too narrow-minded for me to explain more about why I'm doing this. Hey. I'm a bit of a new face in the Quake community, so I'll briefly introduce myself. I started modding Quake about 2 years ago, slowly but surely learning QuakeC. I'm building up a good template for a game (which if you frequent the QM Discord server you might have seen) for usage in a first-person-shooter project similar to Quake. The problem is, I don't have proper 2D art skills, or level design skills. I can only model weapons, props, and code. I wanted to know where could I find other developers interested in such a concept that would like to work with me on a commercial game.
