CheapHack?

Can't believe I missed some of those...

Also in LSL's harem is Everquest Advertisement girl. And the NOLF girl is Cate Archer.

Elexis Sinclair is on the left, gagging someone with the DK mistress (there was a Q3 PPM of her on polycount).

Around the bottom middle is Minsc with Boo from Baldur's Gate...

Thief guy's name was Garret or something.

One of the guys impaled by Painkiller guy is an army man from one of the Army Men games I guess...

Ah I see snake now.. and those look the guys from Commandos hiding next to him...

The four headed thing might be a reference to Dungeon Master.

edit:
Ahh... screw the stupid image with the labels. I knew I had seen that costume before, on the girl being tortured by Elexis Sinclaire and the DK Mistress... it's the prostitute from Messiah! (And there's Bob floating above her head...) I don't think I ever got that far in the buggy Messiah demo but she sure adorned the ads for the game...
edit2:
Haha.. and it's Frogger that got run over by the Carmageddon car

Further down the page there is this:

Although it looks incomplete. I can see quite a few characters that are unidentified.

I love how everyone gets the UT one wrong. It's from UT2k4, not UT.

He meant supports showing fog and skyboxes simultaneously

Wow, you are so smart.

Guess what, it's Monkey Island 3, Worms 3D, Prince of Persia:Something, Larry 7 and on. Not really something important.

I totally know that guy on the upper right with the scythe but I have no idea from where.
And it that picture the Thief is carrying supposed to be from Wolfenstein?
The soccer head might be for that recent Zombie game (Stubbs?).

Awesome drawing with all the detail.

I know, and I thought Fitzquake did, but I was wrong.

[Sajt]

Hmm about the picture Thief guy is carrying. It must be referring to Wolf3D though I don't recall any wall textures with hitler doing the salute.

Guy with scythe is Undying guy, according to one of the comments on that page. Makes sense, since he has that shiny green thing you get in the game.

edit: and the severed head he's loppin' is obviously from Undying...

[FrikaC]

I wonder what the deal with the wind up elephants are all over the place

Hehe, I know you know
And yeah, you're right, I tried it and it doesn't... oh well...

Hello. I am tei on a new account.

On normal engines the problem with fog+skybox is easy to fix. Just deactivate fog before rendering skybox, and you reactivate again after.

On a streamline and uber optimized engine, I guest you can't detect where will be rendered, so you can't make a exception.

Theres also the thing If you disable fog tinting the skybox, theres a artistic problem, you need to select your skybox soo the contrast is not high, or It will look strange (ground will look almost gray, but there will be bright colors on the skybox). So If you play to use a red fog, you must integrate some redish colours on your skybox to fit.

I think I have worked on the subject with Telejano.

The NEXT question is... disable sky rendering completly and make gl_clean 1. So the game dont need to render a sky at all.
I make it so background color for the infinity (the clear color) is the color of your FOG. So in telejano you can set some fog, and disable sky, and you will gain some FPS, and have a interesting high quality sky (flat).

TEI!

I've missed you
