Rather amazing there is no Tronyn died talk anywhere here.
I feel privileged that I got to interact with one of my mapping heroes many times here at func_msgboard.
A Desert Dusk was one of my early single player delights, the release of ARWOP was one that bound in fascination and as a student of history Tronyn's work on many single player releases like OUM are an important part of Quake history.
Thank you for your contributions Tronyn! I feel blessed to have to gotten to know you (and so many engine tweaks needed for your works! May you eternally rest in bliss!).

You and Spike, my friends to the end

Well.
Here I am today .. living awakened by your efforts. Both of you changed my life.

Never once was I thinking of competing against a Quake engine, to be quite honest.
My kids when they look at something like "Quake Remastered" roll their eyes -- my kids raised in an age of Minecraft and Skyrim.
Fortunately, today I can make things they don't roll their eyes at and actually speak positively of -- such is the way of meritocracy which is how the world works and how I want to work as well.

I believe in open source and I believe in humanity (it's a tough one, I know) and I am going to see this through.
The bottom line is I am going to see this through.

quite a few of the old MH tutorials from insideqc are resulting in blank pages:
https://forums.insideqc.com/viewtopic.php?t=4257
If you try to find it on quaddicted's archive, the post itself is also missing:
https://www.quaddicted.com/webarchive/forums.insideqc.com/viewtopic.php%3Ff=12&t=4257.html
Any ideas where to find them?

@_oglerau: just before InsideQc went down I transported all info to quaketastic.

Thanks for the archiving effort @madfox. Unfortunately, the tutorials I am looking for were never on the website itself, but posts in the forums.
Guess they are gone forever. :(

It's odd because it seems like a bug fetching the content of the first post. Some threads have the white blank page, but second page works.
I wonder if it is some encoding issue that causes PHP to fart and not parse the contents of the first post, leading to the fatal error (and thus the blank screen).
Does anyone know if a forum database dump was made by anyone? Or who's hosting insideqc today? Would love to help fix this.

is the one who is hosting the site after it went down. Not sure if he made a database.
