Well, there is a redone version of X-Com using the Quake 2 engine already. I tried making an open field like one of the levels but it never VIS'd. Though I do have notes on how it could work using default Quake2 (No mod).

There's no need to sign your posts, the board already let's us know who posted.

You ain't doing it right.

something to think about

15,000 brushes and 500+ monsters so currently splitting it to play in FQ.
More music.
Still need to complete the lighting.
Compile times around three weeks so release not imminent.

Will release as a .pak to include the original FMB_BDG, where the trigger bug has been corrected.

Selection of lit and unlit screenshots, all from the players perspective. The first screenshot is the last fight of the original FMB_BDG:-

the brick texture you're using in most of those shots is a little too intense. 

look real nice zomggg this will be a hard bitch to fuck :)= 

I like the rockwork in the third shot. Good to see you're trying to finish the map after all. 

Motherfucker yeah.

I had an idea you were going to do the sequel Mike, good going.

Really looking forward to this. 

looking forward to this one for sure.

Now I don't want to sound demanding, but it'd be great if the gameplay would match the looks: dark/evil/hard etc. meaning the first part had far too much ammo, which took off some of the mood for me. 

*does the happy Quake dance* 

but he does get too low key at times for those of us who think of him as the cool, older brother the func board. Wicked nice pics, too. 

 

 

qexpo? 

on the brick texture, stands out too much. 

to see all the effort people put into making Quake 1 look awesome, and yet the gun is still sticking out of your chest.. :P 

I think the guns actually come out of the Quake guy's mouth, due to them being so close to his eyes and you have to only point the guns where ever you look. 

Don't try to make quake look any "better" or you'll have to pry the viewmodel out of my cold dead mouth. 

I quite like having a shotgun sticking out of my mouth.... 

< ctchtchhcg> someone go post a guns == dicks joke here:

The end of the first map was completely tantalizing and I was really hoping you'd do map two - in fact I was actually lamenting the fact that I'd never see it just last week - and here's a bunch of new shots. AWESOME. You've really mastered forcing Quake to do curvy terrain, not to mention huge maps, technically you're one of the best Quake mappers and you've always had the ability to set up and efficiently link dramatic setpieces. Very much anticipating the map. 

...he's the quiet workhorse of Quake mapping. You don't seem him much, don't hear him much, and pretty much every map is supposed to be his last, but he's still there, covertly beavering away on something that will appear at some point when you least expect it.

*raises glass*

P.S. All you other mappers are cool too of course, well the ones who release stuff anyway ;) 

ye shamby but i�m the most sexy and cool!!!

P.s-> normal i�m Portuguese...
