Ya, it was only after I got frustrated and noclipped that I found the ladder to get up top. Duh
did you get performance issues with the encaledus map?
when i head out into the open, find the left pathway, it tanks down to 30 from 144! Try disabling the QSS particles (or use standard QS). If your rig isn't top notch, particles can have a heavy effect on framerate.
an i3 and a 660.
i thought it would be fine for quake though. just after ni posted previously, i decided to launch it with the standard qs, and, the problem went away. so how would i disable the qss particles? not that it would help, as it seems i have to start the map from the beginning for it to take affect. i have a 2 execs: spike and standard qs. i'm halfway through the map now with standard qs, but when i attempt to launch the quicksave with the spike qs the particles are not there anyway. i started anew with qs, got half way through, saved.
i created a qss shortcut exe, booted up the last save i made when using the qs exe, but the particles were not there. apologies if i'm missing something obviously simple, but if the frame issues were only limited to that first outside section, then i thought why not just plug on with the qss exe with the particles? it it turned out it was tanking quite frequently on my rig with the qss exe, then i would just give up and stick to the qs exe. qs is fine, but i was thinking about tweaking a bit instead of turning EVERYTHING off. as it turns out, i didn't know about pr_checkextension 0 got stuck in here [21:44]:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B8Hv1XaKBY&t=1313s couldn't get out :( the door sealed behind me, and there was no guard or square key/icon to pick up in the middle of the room. anyone else have this issue? and all will be fine. Sorry for that stupid moment, it is totally my fault.
Ran out of time/ideas, so i decided to trigger the following events via the "axe him" action. Stupid me. Thx for playing/feedback! sorted!
aftere that i wondered around looking for secrets and taking the time out to admire the scenery/archtecture. 8/10 secrets. couldn't find the rust key :( fuck me, this is a tough old bastard of a map!
i can see multiple replays of this so i can get the map layout in my head. Not a fan of the changes. Some of the secrets were just removed. No more grenade jump secret, no more multiple silver keys and doors, no more hidden shootable switch for one of the elevators, what the hell? Seems to be designed to make first time players find everything in their first go.
was it just forgotten sepulcher that was updated?
it's just that i didn't read anything that mentioned there was an update. for better or for worse, in your opinion? finished it!
quite tough for me on skill 2. 9/10 secrets. that scrag boss fucked me off no end! right, from what little i can gather from googling, i type playdemo [name of map] then hit enter.
i have tried dropping the extracted demo file into: 1) quake directory 2) id1 directory 3) ad directory so far nothing. the only thing i can think of is that the demo file is only compatible with the original horde of zendar mod, but somehow not with the version included with the arcane dimensions pack? i've been wanting to try out MaxED's simple quake launcher, so i will try the original mod and the demo file before clocking some zee's tonight. if i don't manage that in the meantime, hopefully someone can put me straight! MaxED's launcer works like a charm, i'm glad to say!
booted up the original horde of zendar mod no problems, bit the following command seems wrong. playdemo zendarnightmareisforpussies That demo from http://celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=60985&start=67&end=67#67 is for the original release of the map (not AD):
