And, finally, Remake will be open source so you can take the maps, code, and add md3 models and DP features and CSQC menus later and release your own version for Darkplaces, and then you will have your next-gen Quake mod. And everybody will be happy.

Except the guys with slower computers, and ...

And what is it that's wrong about the HUD?

Is it the HUD graphics, or the whole look and layout?

Graphics aren't the problem, there are faithful high-quality replacements that look like the original, but better.

Layout/usage? How would a better HUD look?

Now, on that (and then I think I'll just stop rambling on these issues altogether), I have some reservation. My view of the mapping community is that there are still a majority of mappers (I hate to view it as a monolothic entity, I do know it's made up of different personalities, but I guess there ...

Baker, thanks for your offer, but it's not (a request). I could even do it myself. I prefer not to fork engines, too.

I lost my reply to a browser crash, so I'll make it shorter.

Congrats for pulling off a TC / episode on your own.

I was playing this on Linux, using Tyrquake. It didn't want to load the Welcome to Kurok map (?), but I could load maps by hand. It wasn't so good naming them e1m1 etc because that's Quake's naming scheme. k1m1 etc would have been better.

Does someone still have this? It seems to have gotten lost.

If so, could you up it to shubhub please?
