Bad Trip, Dude

Must be something in the bovine feed this year. 

he did it to punish my sycophancy 

[nt] 

I don't need FritzQuake to make cocktails anyway. I know the best recipes by heart.

1 Bottle of Everclear
1 2 liter of Mountain Dew
1 packet of Lime Kool Aid

Mix it up and rock it out. 

It might be a long shot, but have you checked if there are any .lit files with the same name as the bsp in the same folder? Do you also get weird colour anomalies in other Q1 engines (or even other games)? 

It's not that, as far as I can tell. I'll have to find some other engines that use .lit though. It's just wierd - how the hell can getting a wireless card installed properly scrozzle a completely unrelated program?

(BTW: UT works fine. Still have to check Serious Sam, Q2 and Q3.) 

And I say it�s about goddamn time to force 95/98/ME users to upgrade:

"Well there have been rumours flying around lately that DOOM 3 would not be able to run on computers that have Windows 98 or Windows 98SE as their operating systems. Since we here at planetDOOM dislike rumours in all shapes and sizes, we went straight to the horses mouth so to speak and asked Activision themselves. The reply we got was that it is confirmed and indeed true that DOOM 3 will only run on Windows machines that have windows 2000 or XP and not lower. So there you have it, looks like some peoples upgrading woes just aren't quite over yet."

Not me though. 

(NOTE FROM SCAMPIE: this is 'rejected news'. Panzer was just correcting his approved news post.) 

fov120 is up, but the server is not properly configured yet. I had a bit of bad luck in the last weeks (car crash, laptop crash etc) so I didn't find the time to work on it. I will try to get at least cubeengine.com back up before monday. 

"And I say it�s about goddamn time to force 95/98/ME users to upgrade"

Yay! lets hand Microsoft some more money! Wooo! I love you Bill. 

windows 95, in 2004?! Buying one new operating system per decade isnt too excessive. 

Why should I have to buy a new operating system when my msdos 3.0 still works perfectly well? 

if there was anything useful in each successive upgrade that was not available in the previous versions + addons then I wouldn't be pissed off with buying a new O/S. My computer still suffers from becoming shit about 2 months after a clean install whatever O/S I run.

I'm not criticising id for not supporting old operating systems, nor MS for releasing new ones. I was just saying "yay" to more money for something that isn't really that much better than the thing I've already got... just newer, flashier and requires a more powerful system to run. Oh, and apparently stops me upgrading my system in a hassle free manner (in the case of XP).

In any case, I've got 2k at home and at work :) 

If you're still running win98, you're probably not on a computer that can handle doom3.

eod, lol, wwjd(fakb)? 

Hi all!

I almost finished my new Quake2 DM map. It doesn't have title yet, but the level itself is about 95% done. A little light polishing and then if the level is done, playtesting for itemplacement is required. Here are a few screenshots:

I hope I can release it soon!
bye 

that level looks really, really bland. The all grey texturing doesn't really look that good, and the lighting doesn't help. I would add a lot more details and make them not grey becuase these images (which should be in screenshot forum i think) don't really excite me or make me want to play the map. But keep trying. 

2K/XP is a lot more stable than 95/98. I was totally thrilled when i got 2K at home. However, there isn't much of a difference going 2K->XP, as far as i could tell. Just some snazzy eye candy that i turned off. 

for guided missiles and orbital satellites it should be good enough for a video game. So the claims from a standpoint of advances in or necessary technology are suspect to me.

I have Windows 2000 on my laptop, but it did not come with the disk so I'm screwed,though the laptop worked fine with Max Payne 2 and FarCry I really need to upgrade the PC for that TOTAL experience. 

Ogier is the level editor used by Starbreeze and currently supports Enclave, Quake (improved support in this release) and Knights of the Temple (new for this release).

I haven't tried this version yet but making quake maps should be very straightforward.

Announcement on ogier forum with some details:

I would download Ogier and map for Enclave, but I think I'm going to be very busy very soon.

On the other hand, I don't have a PC that will play Doom 3, so maybe I'll use that to keep me preoccupied. 

Just letting people know I've been having problems with my computer lately, so if you don't see me around, it's currently not working.

Leave me an e-mail if it's urgent, I'll be checking it from time to time. 

on a cluster of computers totalling 36ghz.. if this means anything to anyone. I've no idea what RT is but:

thanks for the link phait... i read about that in some pc mag recently but forgot to check the website. Interesting stuff, i cant see raytracing hardware being included in graphics cards any time soon, but i guess it's a possibility for the future. The video you can download is a bit unprofessional i thought, but maybe thats unimportant.
