Is QuakeSrc.org ever coming back up?

[FrikaC]

No.

Baker: I'm wondering the same thing. While the news page had become rather useless, the forums were a great place...

What I liked about Quakesrc.org is that there were 150 experts at Q1 engine coding, and while there were few questions, they knew everything backwards and forwards about even the smallest issues.

Plus mining the forums for ideas, finding odd little tutorials was a lot of fun.

I hope it returns.

I didn't ask so many questions there as opposed to use the forum search or read topics out of pleasure just to get insight into the intricacies of things.

[FrikaC]

There's a couple experts at engine coding here. Plus we have QuakeC people. Though I guess our answer to question ratio is probably lower

[Spike]

On the plus side, the question-to-heres-how-I'd-do-it-in-q2/q3 ratio is better here. :P
Having said that, there is a lot of overlap between engines...

Quakeworld.nu is also down at this time.

Its a good job we have so many forums, or I'd run out of topics to troll! :P

Not being the kind of person to start many topics, the quakesrc forums arn't of that much interest to me, mostly being q2/q3 modifications to mods. However, I will be very annoyed if the wiki there also remains down, as will many people adding support for 'standard' extensions either engine or mod side.

[frag.machine]

Well, looks like the domain is gone for good.

[leileilol]

gone for good? that's nonsense. it can still come back.

quakedev had the same happen last week, but no one cared because it's quakedev.

[Jay Dolan]

I actually just registered here after Googling Quakesrc (this thread came up). I really miss those forums..

[KillsTheWeak]

Ya rat bastards didn't even give notice ha. Anyone happen to have a dump of the site, lots of usefull information in them forums. I tried archive.org but they only backed the main webpage which is useless ha. Was also wondering where everyone flocked to, i checked quakedev but they still have the 1-2 post a month ha.

[Jay Dolan]

Yea QuakeDev generally doesn't get much love. It's too bad, it seems considerably more reliable than Quakesrc.

LordHavoc had some explanation as to why Ender let Quakesrc.org expire, but it didn't make a lot of sense to me.

[leileilol]

ender had an explanation and is quitting the qsrc site? I haven't seen ender online for WEEKS

Looks like I might have to set up orphanage

Is the server still up? Can we get to it with an ip address?
