Yeah, I'm still around. The most recent Quakey thing I've done is rewrite the QuakeC interpreter from scratch.

I sent one of my midi tunes to someone and they said it sounded like King Crimson. I also had been listening a lot to the machine head album The Burning Red, and I had some other album lying around with the label/publisher Crimson. So all things pointed to redness. I originally tried KrimZonNe, with...

That's actually a pretty useful point - the only thing that matters when declaring a particular builtin is the number. (Also the parameters have to match so that they make sense to the function and don't cause an error, but they don't have to be exact). You can change the name of a builtin and write...

All the actual compiled QuakeC code is compiled into one array of instructions. There's also a bunch of indexes for things like global variables, fields and functions. Each entry in the function list contains, among other things, the index into the instruction list of the first instruction of that f...

MauveBib: It might be possible to approximate in q3 shaders, though the main thing missing would be the non-repeating nature of the noise itself. The two texture layers and the noise layer would have to be at three different angles. r00k: I went to uni in Britain (a middle of the road one) and dropp...

On Saturday I coded this up, it basically takes a repeating texture and makes it look less repetitive, or at least makes it repeat in a random non-grid way. Bits are the same but the output is not tiled. I've written it up here, all posh like Here are some screenshots of what it does with some Quake...

How do you deal with Threewave CTF and other multiplayer mods where there is constant status information shown as centerprints? I read it as putting a frame around the existing centerprint when displaying it, so it'd work normally with everything except that blank centerprints showed up as just the...

You could use different lightstyles for different lighting conditions (at its simplest, it could be day/night) and then change the levels of them to make a smooth transition between them. There'd be no way to change the sun direction without some heavy modification of the light program, but you coul...

I've lost all but a few of my least favourite maps that I made in 1997 or so, but I still remember the layout of them. Same with some maps I made in 1999. All of the above from format/reinstalls with only one hdd and not having put them all on floppies. I also lost the latest version of a 2D space g...

Just code with comments and a readme, but mostly just code. If any part needs explaining in greater detail, post here and I can upload a new version of it.

That's just a plug-in status bar, but I'm moving toward demonstrating it being mixed with the server code using some files common between the two. All my sources like that though have a bunch of other irrelevant stuff in them at the moment.
