ToeTag 2.0 + Source Code
I've released a reset of ToeTag as version 2.0. The version checking appcast/Sparkle set up is jacked at the moment but ignore that. One day I'll work up the energy to figure out what's wrong with it (but not today).

As an added bonus, I've included the source code as an optional download as well! If you've ever wondered what a badly written Mac application looks like, wonder no more!

Enjoy!

Daaaaaamn 
A workshop for learning how to make maps? Why doesn't the US education system offer classes like these? That is too coooooool. 
Seriously 
 
 
It's not formal education as such, I work for an independent arts charity. Learning in a very broad sense. In my department we do a whole range of creative technology stuff, from software training to weekends on circuit-bending or techniques for making sensor driven installations using the Arduino. Anything I can think of and find experts to tutor, really.

These mapping workshops were the quickest selling days for young people that we've done, so I think it's easily something to be developed further. The group were super-keen, some already mapping for HL2 and RPG's.

Good way to spend a couple of days though. 
Wow 
Sounds awesome! 
 
ToeTag is, by far, the most organized and clean level editor that the Quake community has ever seen. A Windows version is a MUST. 
 
I would like an alternative to Radiant. Hammer doesn't count. Please answer my lonely cries. 
 
There was a port under way ... is that still going? 
Still Working On The Port 
Glad to hear you guys are keen on it :-)

I've been a bit busy lately, but the last major thing left to do is the memory management. Right now, you can map for about 30 seconds, and then it runs out of memory. The toolbar is also broken, but I made some progress getting it working.

Once the memory management is done, it should work well enough to do an alpha release. I'll keep you posted!

Sounds like a good speedmap theme... 
Its The Midnight Hour 
the hour not for sleeping

and my interest in seeing how this is going spiked

heh. 
 
Yeah, while I wait for the Starcraft 2 Beta Battle.net to GET THE FUCK UP AFTER SHUTTING DOWN 3 MINUTES AFTER FINALLY INSTALLING THE GAME AFTER WAITING ALL DAY FOR MY BETA CODE it would be good to hear some positive news on this project :D 
 
It's going pretty well! I fixed up the memory management stuff last week, which was probably the most tedious part of this.

There are still a lot of bugs to fix - it's not really usable yet. If you want to check out the current state of the port, grab the following installers:

http://ftpmain.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/binaries/windows/gnustep-system-0.24.2-setup.exe
http://ftpmain.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/binaries/windows/gnustep-core-0.24.3-setup.exe
http://www.ualberta.ca/~ericw/ToeTag-0-setup.exe

I don't know if this will work, but it would be cool to hear if you can start it up! 
 
Is there a way to run that exe on Linux (like some Mono applications)? 
Probably Not 
but the only reason you can't compile it natively on Linux is there are a few bugs in GNUstep with having multiple OpenGL views in X11. Once those are fixed, it will run on Linux :-) 
 
nothing happened. i see the process in the task manager, but nothing pops up.

w7 x64 
 
Same for me on WinXP (in VirtualBox). I also tried going back to the GNUStep theme (as the installation suggested a possibly-bad Windows theme which I let it set) with no effect. Started ToeTag.exe from the (nice!) shell. 
 
i tried with the shell program. it just gave me a command prompt (what's nice about that?) and i took a stab in the dark and just typed 'toetag'.

but same result, i see it in task manager, but nothing pops up. 
Thanks For Trying 
I probably did something silly. I need to set up a fresh Windows VM for testing. 
Found The Problem, I Think 
There were some problems with the Preferences window. Try opening the GNUstep terminal and typing:

defaults write ToeTag quakeDirectory "c:\your quake dir" 
 
didn't seem to do anything, same thing happens as before.
