Threewave CTF Added To Re-release! 
Sweet! I'll be playing the blue and red shit out of this.

Release Notes

Threewave CTF was first released in October of 1996 by Zoid Kirsch. The mod back then was simple, and remixed existing game content to create something new. Matches took place on the single player levels modified to create bases. Keys were used in place of flags, and the grappling hook was an axe that fired a Vore ball. While a little bit of imagination was required, this didn’t hurt the mod’s reception at all. It caught on fire immediately and built a large fanbase of players looking for a deeper alternative to deathmatch. 
And Rubicon 2!!! 
I wasn't aware Rubicon 2 had been added to the Re-Release today as well. That's amazing. Congrats to metlslime and czg!

Read an interview about it here

Interview 
The interview with Matthias is such a fun read. Think about tweaking texture alignment in a text editor!

If anyone is curious about the editor Quest he mentions take a look at this video from last year: https://youtu.be/E6QZdDzQlsk

got some FPS drops w/ Enhanced engine, which older engine can run the DotM episode5 platforms correctly pls? tried copying MG1 directory from Enhanced Quake to a directory of my Quake game with some older egine and running it like this

quakespasm-spiked-win64 -game mg1 +r_farclip 100000 +sv_protocol 999 +sv_aim 1 +scr_conscale 2 +gl_flashblend 1 +scr_crosshairscale 2 +scr_menuscale 2 +scr_sbarscale 2 +scr_conwidth 1920 +sv_aim 1 +r_maxsurfs 4000 +r_maxedges 16000 +skill 1

to play new DotM maps. the 1st four miniepisodes and boss fight work, some broken platforms in episode 5 tho (had to use noclip cheat in mge5m1+mge5m2 maps) 
Why So Many Wariables? 
Most of them should put to autoexec.
r_farclip
r_maxsurfs
not needed, use default
sv_protocol 999 QSS used by default,
scr_conwidth 1920 - why so much? - try default
gl_flashblend 1 - try 0 {not affected to performance on my machine}
What is in Your autoexec? Your hardware specs? 
 
a ryzen and GTX980 Ti. how about DotM jam any time soon pls? the new textures are awesome 
Good Idea 
No one needs permission to call a jam at least not here. 
 
ok, so is there somebody here able to extract the textures from the MG1/pak0.pak file pls? I assume TrenchBroom can do DoMa-style rotating brushes/cogs/fans? 
 
There has been a jam using textures from the remaster. sm_217.
