Talk about anything in here. If you've got something newsworthy, please submit it as news. If it seems borderline, submit it anyway and a mod will either approve it or move the post back to this thread.

Eh, I think you guys are a little down on this ... I think it'll be fun. He seems like a smart dude and I look forward to listening to someone basically explain how Quake works, at a low level, while I work on art.

I think it's going to be fun.

Totally!

This trypophobia.com thing is giving me trypophobia. Couldn't look at the images. But I see, a nasty flesh texture pack...

Same, unless he has a really annoying voice, which often ruins video tutorials for me. Ideally I'd like it to be done in a refined, Roger Moore-esque purr; the vocal equivalent of sinking into a leather Chesterfield sofa whilst wearing pyjamas, but I'll understand if that's not possible.

Speaking of audio, he figures out the microphone around the third video in so don't worry about the sound being stupidly low and hard to hear at first.

That

Doesn't particularly sell it considering its the very first thing you should be solving (how to get your content of a decent quality and uploaded to wherever it needs to be) in order to make a web series.

Having said that, I can understand why the engine guys are down on it. But, he's going to be facing a completely different set of challenges to the ones needed to create and maintain a Q1 engine when it's based off the original code base(s).

Doesn't really grab my attention though; my cynicism makes me think Quake was chosen 'because its easy but still 3d'.

And watching someone work isn't very interesting, IMO.

It's some dude doing a free video series. I think we can cut him some slack on the production values.

Face It...

Anyone other than func_us willing to give Quake a whirl is something to be celebrated. Merry Christmas!

Free?

#26716 posted by ijed on 2015/12/24 21:03:17

Its through Youtube though, so he'll get Ad revenue.

But yeah, I tend to be over zealous with the details :(

Merry Christmas

He isn't going to actually write it from scratch. :(

Ah, so not a manly project like Handmade Hero but "here I made some models for Unreal engine".

(I'm guessing here ^^)

Gay!

If that is his plan, he shouldn't be trashing up the meaning of what the Handmade Hero guy is doing.

#26720 posted by Baker on 2015/12/25 00:04:09

Wait a second? After a quick, re-read ... are you saying he's just doing a source code review?

If that's the case and he's using the word handmade, the only way for his karma to balance out in this world would be him walking in the park and a hornet's nest falls out of a tree and falls on his head.

Merry Christmas To All Of You

Well, real quick ... and this is just an idea ... why don't we wait and see what he does before judging what he's doing? Crazy? Possibly.

Merry Xmas!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

When I stop finding bugs in my map.
