Also, if you're interested in still hacking it you can get mingqw under Windows 32-bit (64-bit mingw cross-compilers for DJGPP seem to be generating bad binaries and I haven't investigated that issue); or you can cross-compile very easily in Linux.

Hey Maraakate,

Two thoughts ...

a) You might ...

I've always noticed the WARP_WIDTH and WARP_HEIGHT defines aren't particularly consistent nor friendly to larger resolutions.

Interesting analysis.

Interesting stuff.

I've mostly avoided the particle system except for Nehahra compatibility and giving WinQuake some of the FitzQuake adjustments for particles (separating rendering from physics mostly).

And I guess I needed to play with particle sizing in Mark V's software renderer because the ...

@mk

You like .lit water.

Why not recompile start, e1m1 through e1m8, with lit water and throw in a zip.

Then do a release @ func of called "Lit water shareware episode"

Works with FTEQW (link to current engine executable since current version is hard to find, and now FTEQW is pretty classic ...

Are you the author of FitzQuake engine? .... It's very well written No, metlslime who runs Func_Msgboard is the author of FitzQuake.

But his engine was the first engine I ever tried to mod and I spent quite a bit of time learning about the inside of his very nice written engine.

The more time I ...

Hehe Made it as a way so someone new could at least get started playing with engine code with a pretty decent modernish engine.

@mk --- working with the software renderer is hard. OpenGL is easy.

You could use this FitzQuake 0.85 that compiles by just pressing F5 ( download ) . You just open the project and click Build and you are in business instantly.

Has a project file for multiple IDEs (vc6, free Visual Studio 2008 ...

Spike made an enhanced version of Quakespasm:

Release Post Version 1 @ Func
Release Post Version 2 @ Func

And it looks like he's has more features he's adding ... :cool:

Features

1. Particle support
2. IPv6
3. Server heartbeat/server browser
4. Single port server
5. Alpha masked models ...

Good luck ;)

I think of you every time I think of threading --- because of the terrific work you did on the pthreads build :biggrin:

I also keep thinking about the fix you posted related to DirectInput (something about the COM handshake, if I recall). I really, really need to use that sometime ...

I wish. But the answer is no.

Would be an all-time killer feature.

The topic comes up from time to time often in the form of "it is possible to make a walk-on-walls mod, etc." or "walk on the ceiling".

FTE has some of the pre-cursors to handle some of the challenges involved, but AFAIK even with ...

I wonder if the SDL buffer of a hardware engine like QuakeSpasm could be shoved through a palette lookup table before swap. That would give a convincing software engine look with a few lines of code and a few milliseconds of overhead. Something to think about ...

If you type r_fullbright 1 (or ...

/So I get 99.9% feedback from smart people and 0% Steam knobs. Its a match made in heaven! :twisted: :twisted:

Clever plan, but I thumb my nose at it! I keep recommending FMV to riff-raff on Steam and reddit. Especially the ones looking for a modern software renderer that does widescreen and ...

Exactly. r_nolerplist cvar, originally from FitzQuake I recall k, thanks

Also keep an eye on Mark V winquake. Many cool features, especially in the console. There's a site for it or just func_msgboard thread?

Just a thread. It's like an Easter Egg hunt. And quite very much on purpose.

Because ...

Quake doesn't lend itself to a story.

It's more like a lonely trip to place of nightmares.
