Take it from me that Raven doesn't approach people they want to hire that way.

It's common sense, but often times unvocalized common sense.

Ever since yesterday, after the technician got the wireless card working, FitzQuake's lightmaps have been plagued with these bursts of colour on arbitrary surfaces. And they do change over time. Maybe I should post some more psychedelic screens of Menkalikan for a laugh.
Anyway, what could be causing this? It isn't happening on any other engines I've tried...

I don't need FritzQuake to make cocktails anyway. I know the best recipes by heart.
1 Bottle of Everclear
1 2 liter of Mountain Dew
1 packet of Lime Kool Aid
Mix it up and rock it out.

It might be a long shot, but have you checked if there are any .lit files with the same name as the bsp in the same folder? Do you also get weird colour anomalies in other Q1 engines (or even other games)?

AguirRe
It's not that, as far as I can tell. I'll have to find some other engines that use .lit though. It's just wierd - how the hell can getting a wireless card installed properly scrozzle a completely unrelated program?
(BTW: UT works fine. Still have to check Serious Sam, Q2 and Q3.)

Win2000/XP Required For Doom 3.

And I say it�s about goddamn time to force 95/98/ME users to upgrade:
"
Well there have been rumours flying around lately that DOOM 3 would not be able to run on computers that have Windows 98 or Windows 98SE as their operating systems. Since we here at planetDOOM dislike rumours in all shapes and sizes, we went straight to the horses mouth so to speak and asked Activision themselves. The reply we got was that it is confirmed and indeed true that DOOM 3 will only run on Windows machines that have windows 2000 or XP and not lower. So there you have it, looks like some peoples upgrading woes just aren't quite over yet."

fov120 is up, but the server is not properly configured yet. I had a bit of bad luck in the last weeks (car crash, laptop crash etc) so I didn't find the time to work on it. I will try to get at least cubeengine.com back up before monday.

Hmm

Why should I have to buy a new operating system when my msdos 3.0 still works perfectly well?

Well...

if there was anything useful in each successive upgrade that was not available in the previous versions + addons then I wouldn't be pissed off with buying a new O/S. My computer still suffers from becoming shit about 2 months after a clean install whatever O/S I run.
I'm not criticising id for not supporting old operating systems, nor MS for releasing new ones. I was just saying "yay" to more money for something that isn't really that much better than the thing I've already got... just newer, flashier and requires a more powerful system to run. Oh, and apparently stops me upgrading my system in a hassle free manner (in the case of XP).
In any case, I've got 2k at home and at work :)

If you're still running win98, you're probably not on a computer that can handle doom3.

New Quake2 DM Map

Hi all!
I almost finished my new Quake2 DM map. It doesn't have title yet, but the level itself is about 95% done. A little light polishing and then if the level is done, playtesting for itemplacement is required. Here are a few screenshots:

I hope I can release it soon!

that level looks really, really bland. The all grey texturing doesn't really look that good, and the lighting doesn't help. I would add a lot more details and make them not grey becuase these images (which should be in screenshot forum i think) don't really excite me or make me want to play the map. But keep trying.
