Two years later, RetroQuake will be re-opening to review quake and quake 2 mods, levels, and conversions. If you're thinking this is a strange time to re-open a site like this I would agree, but it's purely out of love for the games. It should re-open in the next week or so.

I've got the fucking trojan.admincashb virus that infects your explorer.exe file.

I've found some instructions on how to get rid of it but I cant find my xp cd anywhere for th emoment. If anyone could please email me their explorer.exe file, that'd be much appreciated.

Dont if I can get it to work that way or whether there's a difference in explore.exe for xp home edition and xp proffesional edition (the one I have) but it's worth a shot.

Please help if posible. 

Now that is an enlightening news!
I wanted to launch a review section on http://www.quaddicted.com in the near future, but when you get Retroquake back again... Maybe i don't need it then.
If you would rather like getting hosted by me (to avoid planetquake.com) just drop me a mail. I would be pleased to help. 

Hi. Is anyone in contact with Sten 'ztn' Uusvali? I'm trying to get in touch, but have not had any success with either of his published email addresses. If you have contact details, could you drop me a mail - swelteh _at_ hotmail.com - muchas gracias!

That's brilliant! And priced so god damn expensive that it's going to force everyone who sees it to build their own. I assume there are some pegs in there or something to keep it from sliding appart when a drunk friend walks into it. 

first a thanks to vorelord for helping me out, I'm almost back on track with my comp but does anyone know to get rid of aze search? It's possibly spyware but seems more likely to come from a virus.

norton's picks up now virus though and spybot and adaware dont read it either.

Unfortunately, it redirects all search engines to its own site so I cant do the research myself. 

what's up? :)

I don't think ztn's been spotted anywhere in years. He certainly hasn't posted here since before this board was called QMap. He's dropped off the map along with guys like headshot.

Unfortunate, really. The ztn2dm's were always a source of inspiration for me. 

Try some of these, they are links to forums and usefull programs etc,

Hi Matt. Yea, google's turning up nothing against his name in the last few years :( I've put together my take on Blood Run and want to get his sanction: http://www.challenge-world.com/forum/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=15;t=2989 

nice lighting.

vorelord,

thanks for that, most seem to suggest a reformat to be on the safe side though. Looks liek I'll be doing that unfortunately. At least I have it running enough to back up stuff on dvds thanks to your sending of the file.

Cheers for that, much much appreciated. 

Looks nice - another round of trim is definitely needed though, I think. I like the flat-texture style that's evolved in q3 (always wanted to try it ... :) ) but it requires a little more geometric density to make up for it.

The easiest way to find ztn might be to just release the map and see if he summons forth with a complaint. If it doesn't, I guess you needn't lose too much sleep - I imagine he'd be far less disapproving of a remake for CPMA from an established mapper than by some schmoe as a counterstrike map or somesuch. :) 

de_bloodrun....teh horrorror o_O 

I often worry about people who vanish entirely for years on end.

Would be nice to hear people like Headshot and ZTN are still alive at least. 

Never heard of 'im. What did he make? 

He reappeared briefly last year to check out some speedmaps that were made in one of his themes. Apparently SleepwalkR is in touch with him.

voodoo: he made bless, agenda, dead, and lots of other good maps. http://www.planetquake.com/peek/authors/headshot.html 

Those maps look rather cool.

Anyone have any tips for good/cool 2vs2 qw maps? Mainly thinking of gameplay more than graphics. 

Yeah so you're all mad p1mps so you probably know all the good Doom/2 level editors so what are they, dudes? 

 

I use doombuilder. Pretty solid. 

doombuilder is indeed the shizzle's nizzles. 

but it was dos-only and i don't really know if it was better than the other editors or not. 

ha ha
(the outer bounding is weird in Doom BSP's so I don't really recommend it). 

BTW: wh00p! Shambler is back. 

Doombuilder kicks the pants off of any other doom editor I've ever seen.
