HELLO INTERNET. 
82.96.100.100 
Whoever you are, you're a fucking cock - and a boringly unclever one at that - and once again I wish the moderators had the power to delete posts.

VB: Well, GL then. When you don't get much response you'll probably start digging in the crates more. And yeah, I watched a video, looked like there could be some impressive stuff but the fucking awful engine crap and other stuff distracted from the quality of the tricks. Do a normal Quake video and I'd be more interested. 
BTW. 
I don't mean any beef like that but I firmly believe that people should explore what's out there. And, I respect what you're doing, but I can;t get a clear perspective on it with engine mods.

Anyway, enough, blah.

lunaran, of course, but zou had no fucking scope!

The sad thing is, that post by 82.96.100.100 - I thought it was written in Vietmanese at first. 
Er 
lunaran, of course, but zou had no fucking scope!

so what's your point, that there's a graphical overlay when you zoom in? 
Shallow 
worked fine for me, version patched to 1.10, but like I said I'm running it on XP pro but SP1. SP2 buggers a few things up so I stuck with SP1. 
Quake 3 Source... 
did this not get mentioned here? or did i miss it?

Have You Tried Modifying The Game VM? 
I gave it a go some time back when CodeArena was active. Q3 has some of the most difficult pathing
I have ever seen (Windows NT being the OS of choice for Id at the time may have had something to do with it).

With Q1 and Q2 you can put the code anywhere on your hard drive and have it compile, but Q3, whoah, it is picky, picky. I solved the problem for myself by putting GCC, the source and components (Q3ASM I believe) all in the same file and compiling it. Good Times.

I'd love to see what is under the hood there. Q3 runs quite lovely on the P2 300, where as QFusion chokes on this lower end system. I have got to stop blowing my money, and get a proper Motherboard. 
Q3a Source 
I'm actually glad to see this happening, looking forward to what will be put out with it.

I also had no idea you could release a commercial game provided you ship your source code with. At least that's what I read from I believe Gamespy's article on Carmack's keynote. 
Doom 3 Movie More Footage 
I was fortunate to download WSAD.TV's footage at QuakeCon, which included footage from the Doom movie. They have since taken it down as apparently they couldn't show this publicly!

So... maybe I could trim it down (it's 170mb) to the movie sequence - you have GOT to see the pinky demon it's just like in Doom 3. I was excited to see things coming together - even if the movie isn't entirely faithful, it has me more excited.

On the other hand I know of a couple here who object to posting magazine scans (while I see this done at other forums, even 3DR) - so if I trim it down maybe I'll upload it. 
GPL 
I also had no idea you could release a commercial game provided you ship your source code with.

You should read the GPL (GNU General Public License), the license that id releases its code under. Not too long, and not too bogged down in legalese. There's nothing at all that prevents you from charging for GPLed content as long as the source code remains available. It's just that not many people have actually done this, and people continue to assume that "free as in speech" content must also be "free as in beer."

Guilty as charged, but... and its a big but...

Ban the cowardly spamming anon already, thanks.

at the end of the day, shambler will have something to show for it. 
Yes Well 
666 at the end of the day, shambler will have something to show for it.

well that would depend on whether or not his boyfriend swallows or not

spamming

2 posts and that is spamming, you live and learn. I was providing a community service and you attack me calling me a fucking cock, so I respond.

I shall not bother you again 
Gpl The Engine, Sell The Content 
is one model.

But as ID still own the copyright they can still do closed source engine mods for paying customers (not that they will for Q3A by now, but...).

Please, let me name my first-born after you, O Master! Never before during my Internet Career have I met someone of such obvious pure awesomeness. 
Classic Doom - A Mod For Doom 3 
http://cdoom.d3files.com/home.php?page=media

I don't really know which environments are really more immersive... :) 
Yes Nice 
Whether one likes remakes or not, you have to agree they're going about in the right direction actually utilizing the D3 engine for what it's worth, unlike other remakes. 
Still Looks Like Shit 
 
True 
It does. 
I Think 
I'm allergic to glowing blue stuff.
Hello, 3d cards and alpha blending have been here since 1997 or something, I think we've seen it by now! 
More On Fixing My Old PC 
Well, I think the cause for random lockups has now been properly identified: it was the CPU overheating. I underclocked it from 1400 Mhz to 1050 by dropping the bus speed to 100. The idle temperature has dropped from 65c to 57c and I was now able to play Doom 3 without it locking up the machine on me. I guess I will have to look into some new proper cooling...

By the way, whilst Doom 3 did run, it looked like shit (something similar to those Doom3-on-VooDoo2 screenshots you might've seen around). Are there any known problems with the latest NVIDIA ForceWare 77.77 drivers, GF4 Ti4200 cards and Doom 3? I recall Doom 3 looking way better before (even tho it did lock up every 30 seconds or so). 
Oh 
I had no idea it looked like shit.
