bind mouse1 quicksave  

The lightning "trap" idea is good in principle, indeed when I saw the first one I was positively surprised, but I think they could have been used better, for example introduced gradually. I think the part that felt over the top to me was where you have to press 2 buttons, in the same room, each of them behind a tight barricade of timed lightning bolts. After you just navigated another corridor full of those.

The RMQ Demo 2 comparison; that map was full of non-combat gameplay mechanics pretty much from the start, hence the whole paradigm was different, and there were only two crushers in a row, not a lot.

I think my little review was overall positive, let's not forget that. I criticized a few things, but I don't "hate" anything in this mod at all. It's OK to criticize. 

Checkpoint saves technically have nothing to do with ultra-linear radio-guided rail FPS; they simply remove the need to constantly do something that's not part of the game world (save the game). Nostalgia at work? 

coupled with bind mouse2 quickload that equals instant five-dimensional death-evasion mastery right at your fingertips. who needs guns? 

but could totally have done without it. the noisiness and loudness... and the length they are on. Wasn't hard though - and I liked tricking monsters into frying themselves.

Liked it very much over all. 

Or a script with a "quicksave; wait 30; quicksave" loop. 

outstanding idea. That's 30 milliseconds, right? 

Quick, you have 0.015 seconds to dodge that bullet or you're dead!

Oh my. Carmack's Reverse not in Carmack's game.

I've been recording video playthrough's of a fair few q1sp maps over the last few weeks and putting them on the yt at http://www.youtube.com/user/darrenweekes

I'll be adding more and more when I get the time, I want to get all the "classics" in there as well as videoing new releases.

Apologies for run quality of some of the earlier videos, I was doing them blind with fraps recording while I was playing which turns out pretty bad, ie lots of getting lost and derp moments. Now I've started running the maps through once or twice before recording and on the actual run I've been recording a demo and then frapsing that instead.

I've been considering adding minor commentary to videos also, so I wanted to know what kind of stuff would be interesting to listen to while watching the run. As a mapper I would probably talk most about the design of the maps and gameplay etc but I'm not sure it would be interesting enough. if you have any ideas let me know :) 

weird 

 

I just removed the www. from my bookmark and it seems to work fine now. Odd. 

that worked for me too :) 

so no more host file trickery necessary. Also, celephais.fov120.com was just temporary and does not allow you to log in. 

Please post them and let them know.

This place is a bit quiet but there's good discussions and banter when it gets going... 

I've kept this back for many years, but I thought you should all finally become aware of the new world order...
(lol sry, just jokes)
wait, who's that at the window...! 

i just wonder what happened with the tyranns base map

its been 90 something percent completed 

I would hurt somebody close to me to get to play that map in a finished state.
