On top of that if you're already using zlib all you need to do is place the source file in your project and you're set.

Take it down a notch sport. As mh said you can't have an entire opinion of a game based on screenshots. I'd have to say judging by the look of these levels they're some sort of alpha test, if they're even real, because it just doesn't have the same level of polish as the rest of id's games, say what ...

Calm down RAGE was only just released if we don't have a release by mid January that's when I'll start to freak out.

There is Human Head Studios for the upcoming Prey 2 but it's probably so heavily modified it's unrecognisable.

This all looks very neat and I can't wait to see the results form this test. Good luck!

Dude, just Google it.

You go do that. LZMA for games = BAD IDEA.

Just trying to include some features which some people may find handy. Since I wrote that post I have opted to use PhysFS by Icculus which does some really cool things.

I am currently working on quite a few things and at least one is Quake related:

Catacomb 3D Win32 port -- Utilising Wolf4SDL as a base.
Doom 64 Ex SVN Builds -- Just for fun and because I like the game.
A Quake Port -- with LZMA compression and OpenAL eax surround sound. This one is interesting ...

I will show you guys soon just got to clean and fix a few things first. Also I want to include LZMA compression, and Quake III unzip.c/.h, as well as OpenAL EAX surround sound.

I'm doing something like this but with the original Q1 Sources. I started with he CVAR stuff and then worked my way up. It was interesting getting intimate with some Q1 code.

Clarity:

Any project is a great one to expand one's own knowledge and should be encouraged.

In my last post, I'm just saying you are going to find this to be far more complex and challenging than you think by at least a few orders of magnitude.

I realize what a mammoth task it is ...

You're free to do what you want in your own engine, however...
Without gutting out QC entirely and revamping the bulk of the engine, you'll just end up with compatibility layers.

You would gain the ability to attach a debugger to your game code, yes.
You would gain the ability to invoke native ...

A lot of you seem to be asking why I'm dong this. The simple answer to this is to make Quakes game logic more modifiable. As mh said the limits in QuakeC are known and rather well documented but if I take the QuakeC game code and port it to the OOP language that is C++ the possibilities are pretty ...

I was debating weather or not to create a quake engine in PURE C++. No ASM and NO QuakeC. Instead I will replace the QuakeC game code with regular C++. First the conversion from C to C++ then the game code.
What I wanted to ask is, has anyone done this before?
