Thanks for your commend shambler!
Architecture is a little rough because I spend most time on a few hom's that wouldn't get away. So I started from start and succeeded to construckt it again without a big box around it. The way I transported Bones to Quake1 was a bit difficult, as the head had so many vertices I had to simplify it. And indeed it looks a bit thin, from a distance it is hard to hit. First I made its encraving touch on 4 units distance but than they glided away between the edges of bad polygons. CC animations don't sound familiar, but wakes my interests. As for the end boss. I know it looks stupid, yes. But I had this queer idea to make a thing coming out of nowhere breaking off space to escape along. So I ended up this way. My most concern was to make the textures right. They seemed to change from normal textures, as the lightning is supported otherwise. I am changing its cube outfit more to distracted one. So it all is in a half way state only to see if it's working. Is there noone who can make a hom monster? Bones - needs to be beefier and ideally made more Quakier. Give him a Nailgun type thing maybe, and some brutal claw for CC. Maybe a slightly bestial skull, something like that.
End Boss - the idea is very good, something coming out of the walls, it's just the model looks silly for it, keep working at it. On Tarspleen was a version of Bones who had the claw attack, but I had to delete them. They made the model spawn away. I still have the animation frames of bones, but the transport to Qmle is so hard due to verticemeshes.
I still don't get the convertion idea to Max3D. In some way the model always returns with an altered vertice count. But I can make the End Boss more like a crunchy rock-type. I look for a beta tester who likes quoth monsters and would like to test new gameplay on one of the id maps. Brushwork and textures remain in 99% unchanged but gameplay is teh rock :)

Damn nice, especially the "jumppads" on dm17. which such name, this guy is for sure from India, or somewhere around... I guess it is an idiomatic expression from his country... Slumdog bastid :P
So from one individual's perceived idiocy it follows that you can call his entire (assumed) nation poverty stricken, semi-homeless illegitimates using a term that already has racist and caste connotations?
smrat Racism is where you find it.
There's all the old standbys shouted by the real racists but at the same time alot of british are in a real blind spot. The most racist people on the island are pakistani muslim. Indian pashto (?) hate thier fucking guts because they get painted with the same brush. Cross the divide and you realise how little the difference is. Then cross the equator and see brown nazis doing the same stupid shit and you realise an innocuos comment like JPL made in the grand scheme matters SFA. Tob be honest the only bit of those posts that my peripheral thinking didn't filter was the result. I still want to know what it was. Gouranga? What you name racism, must be named intolerance... Racism is much more considering that there are better races than others, hence the nazi concept of Arian superior race...
I'm not racist, and BTW I'm working with Indians all days in my company.. Also, using "slumdog" was much more a provocation (regarding the posts #5629 and #5630) than a racist act... Sorry of some people think I am racist: it is not the case, else I would have chosen a French website, not an international one as it is here: think about it ;) 1) I found the comment racist, not the person (hi JPL! ;)
2) From experience my Indian friends tend to be more racist against the 'pakis' and 'bangos' than the pakistanis (altho I'm hardly denying that there exist racism within other, if not all, minority communities). But yes, I'm aware that rastafarians support black supremacy much like the nation and many other equally heinous groups around the world. That still doesn't justify any form of racism. It just makes them wrong too... Wasn't saying it justifies anything - just pointing it out.
What I mean is that there's typically racism all over the place to some degree, no matter how politically correct the society. Weather its positive or negative racism is another matter, but the lowest pack mentality typically surfaces in some way.
