I bet it was Kurt Cobain right before he was killed in an accident involving a revolver on the Wilmington, NC set of The Crow.

<Cue metlslime attributing some random quote to Kurt Cobain.>

There's lots of cool textures in the textures/object/ subdir that you may not have noticed before. -- Kurt Cobain

CZG ended my reign as sole ruler of the domain of textures/objects :( I bet he next tells people to look out for unused model diffuse maps! And use them!!

Quaktree, I was on irc and NotRay gave me one, so I dont need yours now, hope you can "get it back".

Sorry bud.

Daz...

Just pass it on to someone else. (I cant take it back). Cheers

Thanks, Metlslime

Simple Doom3 Performance Tweak!

#5242 posted by DaZ on 2004/09/02 22:46:53

Im on an ati 9800xt so I geuss this will work on ALL ati boards and maybe nvidia as well if they have these options.

Simply open your openGL display settings and set texture and mipmap quality to "quality" instead of "high quality".

I cant see any difference in-game, but my timedemo score went from 34.3fps to 41.4! (1024x768 Hi-Q) And the entire game feels more responsive as well.

Just cut -n- paste the link here. I'm sure someone will grab it.

Like this:

http://gmail.google.com/gmail/a-5b86b70fe-d980520e60-1ab8418eea

This is a good one but whoever uses it should post back here to let others know it's been used.

(ps) this is the 3rd one so please don't e-mail me for more right now.

Gee, Mail

#5246 posted by Lunaran on 2004/09/03 02:46:22

Is there something spectacular about a gmail account that somehow transcends the ordinary sending and receiving of text and renders other, lesser email services obsolete? I don't feel this compelling urge to have one like everyone else on the internet, so I must be missing something big.

oh, I updated my site again, BTW.

Let me guess, does this update feature a lot of grumbling about D3 gameplay??

Do I win a prize...??

P.S. Agree about gmail though, like, WTF.

Can you make the architecture article news, please. I think it should be on the front page so everyone can see it.

It's a pretty good article, I think it does a good job of explaining mapping and promoting it as an art/architectural form to those who don't know what it's about - and I welcome anything that fairly represents the gaming community to the general public.

I also really liked this quote...

Ironically, then, though played with futuristic ray guns on multigigahertz desktop computers and across high-speed networks, the map and level's true antecedents may be the sightlines of the Roman coliseum, and the weave of the Minotaurian labyrinth.
