..nope, it was all about "interesting" not "hard". And, just as well I didin't release because we'd have two base levs right on each others heels. One a fortnight is good, one a day is overkill :) 

any relief mapping or parallax mapping, anywhere. I'm not sure we even shipped with a shader for it. 

Made a new malice.wad
There are a few textures with differnt look but same names. Those are not included in the old one.

@Spirit please upload it at quaddicted 

Maybe it was a tech demo thing I saw then. 

didnt I read this same discussion a few years ago? or am I just going senile :)

anyway, cheers to biff and ricky for the map releases and to speedy for starting up the new remix pack, that sounds great.

oh and kell preach and necross too for releasing quoth2, forgot I hadnt actually played the maps there too. 

Is it a replacement for the old or an additional one? I would need to rename it, that's why I am asking. 

I tried this. It looks OK in places, but the terrain looks weird. Almost like some sort of liquid. I think Q4 looked better as-it-was.

;P 

I'm about to get broadband at home too, so theres no escaping the constant barrage of babble. I'll have to make a website too.

Spirit, can I go on Quaddicted, once I've built the thing? 

i had very little to do with quoth2, it was all kell and preach (and anyone else who helped). :)

i shall also be honest and admit i haven't even played it yet, let alone all the map releases that have happened in the last few months... i have such a backlog of quake stuff to get through when i have some free time. :(

but yet, thank you to everyone releasing stuff, even though i haven't been able to play it yet. :) 

Scary eh?!?!

necros - at least you listened to my heavy metal! 

still have those 2 clips on my HDD. ;) 

Sure, unless you want a database. :) 

And the odd MP3 probably.

I'll just knock up some crappy html page wid a few 'pegs and stuff. And I dont mind linking to mediafire for downloads. I just think it'd be cool to be a rickyt23.quaddicted.com !

I'll let you know when its constructed ;-P 

Spirits site - should he keep the pink?

(Hell yes!) 

I would kill you for doing that. 

for my maps. But what if I end up with a load of music? Gah! I havent even built the damn thing yet... 

but it hasnt been released yet has it? 

SleepwalkR is working on an SDL version of Fitzquake. Not really a new version but may become the new Fitzquake codebase.

SDL + OpenGL? 

Yes It is a replacement of the old one.
It was a hell lot of work finding textures with the same name but different look ;) 

Hard drive crashed, reinstalled quake through steam. when I try to run my screen is a tangled mess of neon green squares. Probably a simple fix but I'm two steps away from being a ludite. Any tips? 

This is probably completely unrelated, but when I moved to Vista+ATI card/drivers my screen was totally corrupt in Quake.

It took me a while to find the solution - seems that I had set gl_ztrick 1 years ago for a bit of a performance increase, but the new card/driver combo was pretty unhappy about that. It was all fixed when I set the variable back to 0 (which is the default anyway).

Just throwing that out there on the slim chance that you or anyone else experiences this problem. 

ATI card in THIS office computer doesnt like AguirRe's engine, as I mentioned before. I've tried changing the drivers, and it used to work fine. Probably the card is becoming fucked!

I was getting weird particles on the screen which wouldnt go away.

My tip - Check your drivers, download the most up to date/most effective drivers, make sure they are installed. When you re-installed your OS did you check your drivers for you video hardware?

(OK, so it might be a bit of an obvious one, but...... ho-hum) 

some of the more uptodate drivers stuff up older games, espeially with all this changing of opengl stuff.

I always keep the install file of an older set that I know works.

And frib, I've had that too, not with the current card or drivers but on my old video card gl_ztrick did really funny things in all quake/q2 engine games 

defaults to 1 in the original GLQuake AFAIK. I think it's supposed to improve performance on older cards at the expense of visuals. I always have it set to 0 to avoid z-fighting.

In some engines, it defaults to 0 (e.g. NehQuake) or cannot be set at all (e.g. Fitz, Tomaz).
