Classic 
just classic 
Since Bal Is Sharing 
I made a couple of "spooky" sounds loops for the jam. BEWARE!!! These are tonally more like Scoobie-Doo than House of a 1000 Corpses. ;)

Howls and Groans for Halloween Jam.

These are 22khz 16bit mono wav files with markers (cues) embedded so they will loop with a proper sound entity.

They were liberated from a 99 cent Halloween CD so use at your own risk. Since the original CD sound files were over a half hour i'd say this usage falls under "fair use" for copyright purposes. 
Timer By Khreathor 
Awesome, Love It When There Is A Clear Timer 
Too bad we can't embed the timer in the top post.

Itching to make something for this but not sure if I'll have anything worthy by the deadline. Hrmmm... must....map

Jack-o-lantern 
On Sunday I decided to add some extra skins to the lovely pumpkin model in the pack - in fact I carved the pumpkin with some nice glow-in-the-dark designs:

1) Skull
2) Jaws
3) Quake logo
4) Pentagrams
5) Right arrow
6) Left arrow

Most are just for visual effect although the last two could be handy to aid navigation. Anyway, if you want to use them please do - the model is also designed to be drop-in compatible with the original model (so skin 0 and frame 0 are unmodified).

Fantastic! 
 
 
Are the fullbright pixels at the top intentional though?

Mostly Intentional 
Except for those on the original skin, don't know what the point of those were. On the new skins those points are where the light shines through the lid of the pumpkin : - ) 
 
Ok. I might patch the original skin later tonight. The lid thing makes sense.

Enjoy!

I'm trying to pump (get it!) something out for this. Keep getting wonky compile issues. Missing faces and the like. Argh.
