nitin I happened upon this link and immediately thought of your initial post in this thread :

It's a list of 240 different GFX cards measuring 15 different specifications (!)

Should be a nice way to determine what to get. 

cheers.

altough at this stage, I'm keenly considering whether the geforce 7800 GT is worth the money. The geforce 6800 is my fallback card. 

And you know that top of the line stuff is always a rip-off until it is superceeded by the next model.

Price to performance is the best way of looking at things if you aren't taking a swim each day in your enormous gold safe before going to sleep in a bed stuffed with fiftys at the top of your enormous solid platinum mansion.

It's worth pointing out that if you do this you may still not be able to afford a 512mb geforce 7800 card. For my money i'd get a good 6800 Ultra though. 

that's way beyond budget, but a 256mb 7800 GT may be in the picture.

I updated my site with my old quake maps and a couple more bits, so could you add me to the leveldesign.org front page, please? PLEASE?

New map looks sexeh! (not to mention the due at the bottom) 

I agree, the Quake screenies look really good and interesting... go map ! 

SleepwalkR, i tried to email you, but sleepy at fov120.com doesnt work:

PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 9): 554 <sleepy@fov120.spam.com>: Relay access denied

so, please email me so i can get in contact with you, at sollers -dot inertia -at gmail.com

thanks! 

yeah, np... totally forgot I was hosting you when I did the front page. :) 

there's a big talking penis on your website

oh, and there's a wierd image at the bottom of the page too 

 

what is that? Is it some kind of perverse sexual position? Sounds vaguely like rimjaw from an early episode of South Park. 

Shit. Yay for shit. Poor gameplay, poor previous-gen graphics, very ugly headbob and general weak feel. Fur effect is nice as is shooting enemy to chunks, that is all really.

Next! 

 

I'm back from a party of friend of mine (with my wife and daughters...), and I'm a little bit drunk.. oh yeees !!!
It was just to thank all people who help me during this past year, and to say everybody: HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS: YOU ALL ROCK !!! ;P 

...it 's 2:15 in the morning here in France... very early ... but well.. kids need their own bed.. me as well ... ;P 

2:50pm here in Japan.

Rather a subdued new years eve for me as usual. I just sat around in the house drinking beer and watching TV :(

Quake is 10 this year!

I hope there is a QExpo again. Didn't the first QExpo coincide with the 5th birthday of Quake? 

it's usually every other year, and we had one last year. 

My night and pics here

I've been working on this one for quite a while, and finally got the time and energy over holidays to finish it up.

The map is mainly intended for FFA, but can work as Tourney (no Quad in that case) or TDM if you so desire.

I tried to make something that feels a little different from most of the maps that shipped with the game. Feedback is welcome!
