Not read any lovecraft stuff, but it sounds odd and interresting... hope the game is good, but the graphics do look a bit shit imo 

yeah, this game looks pretty hot. but as you mentioned, there are some screen shots that look kind of bad -- i guess i've been spoiled with all the new games coming out with supercrazy graphics. still, i love horror games that can scare the shit out of me, so am really looking forward to this game.
some of the insanity effects sound annoying,but it may work in the game, so i'm willing to wait and see. 

oh look at necros in his shiney new purple nickname! 

About The Vampire patch (not wanting to clutter up the other thread), which one should I install? The official 1.2 from Activision or the unofficial 1.2 from Dan_upgrade?? I tried the latter as it was the only one listed on planetvampire but it wouldn't work... 

I'm running the unofficial 1.2 at the moment, but I would suggest grabbing the official one at this point, as it (reportedly) fixes the same game-breaker shit that Dan's does, and also fixes code stuff that a fan-made patch can't touch.

What wouldn't work for the unofficial 1.2? The link? The install? 

I am quite looking forward to the Cthulhu game, and really hoping it's good and doesn't make me cry.

And the lemmings link caused Firefox to shit itself in a messy manner...maybe I'll try in IE. 

Got an error: Can't find file Vampire\maps\sp_soc_3.bsp

...even when the patch was placed on the Vampire\maps folder right next to the sp_soc_3.bsp file. DOHWTF. 

um...that's quite odd. I ran omaVampPatch1.2.exe from the root Vampire directory (i.e. sitting parallel with the bin, docs, and Vampire folders) and it installed just fine. That *is* one of the maps it replaces (and backs up).

I did install the 1.1 version first; perhaps that has something to do with it?

I just hope the official patch works for you. I love this game, and the bugs wouldn't be so painful if the game wasn't so much fun.

If you're eating stew in a greasy dive in the worst slum in Calcutta, a rat turd thrown in the mix just kinda makes you shrug, but when you find the same dropping in one of the best meals you've had, it makes Baby Jesus cry.

And hopefully some new maps too. 

yeah, ok. Some people definately have too much time on their hands! Honestly what a waste of time! 

Larva in my chili. I was quite enjoying it until that moment.

Thankfully the larva were dead. 

glad i've never had any really nasty experiences like that. Eaten a few worms I guess, but that's probably a hint i shouldnt eat fruit grown in my garden. 

bugs are healthy for you. i eat cockroaches all the time. sometimes i'll eat two or three cocks at a time. they're good for you. 

Talk about anything in here.

Applies more now than ever. 

ther new nin album is finished! anyone exited?

:D 

Have a good one nitin! 

.plan files are so passe these days!

I intended to release the Q3 source under the GPL by the end of 2004, but we had another large technology licensing deal go through, and it would be poor form to make the source public a few months after a company paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for full rights to it. True, being public under the GPL isn�t the same as having a royalty free license without the need to disclose the source, but I�m pretty sure there would be some hard feelings.

Previous source code releases were held up until the last commercial license of the technology shipped, but with the evolving nature of game engines today, it is a lot less clear. There are still bits of early Quake code in Half Life 2, and the remaining licensees of Q3 technology intend to continue their internal developments along similar lines, so there probably won�t be nearly as sharp a cutoff as before. I am still committed to making as much source public as I can, and I won�t wait until the titles from the latest deal have actually shipped, but it is still going to be a little while before I feel comfortable doing the release.

Doh :[. Site has been slashdotted btw, not working atm.

does this channel still exist I connected to irc.gamesnet.net and joined channel and nuthing was there. 

It's irc.gamesurge.net now 

is an exceptional alternative to the Q3 source if anyone is sorely dissapointed. 

Please, tell me if it's annoying!

I just redesigned http://www.quakeblog.de.vu
Maybe you'd take a look.
