Re: Quake MOD - In The Shadows

"You have my sword."
"And my bow."
"And SOCK'S AXE!"

Looks very nice, very in keeping with Quake's slightly more elegant medieval feel.

Re: wadseeker

One thing to keep in mind is that while Doom uses WADS ("Wheres All the Data") for maps and mods (sometimes they use pk3...), with Quake a map can be a BSP, or a BSP with external textures or resources, or a pak file containing that BSP and external resources, or a progs.data with a BSP... Mods ...

A brief tale

Despite all of the recent, and timeless feeling, events he has endured this particular sloshing could still churn his stomach. It also churned the stomach of the ogre below him, and the sloshing was produced by his boot lodged in its chest cavity, caught in what seemed to be a tangled network of ...

Re: Engoo

I'm sad to hear this, and see that thread as well, Engoo is one of my favorite projects and I've loved watching it grow.

I blame Randy, those New Zealanders are never up to any good seven years after a job.

Thanks for pinging Marv though Spirit, I learned of this moments before I had to leave for work.

Re: Can't access inside3d.com?

No communication on my end as to this, but I reached out to FrikaC on Facebook about it. Curious that it is only the front page. If there was a particular expectation we had to meet, I wasn't told of it.

Re: Report: Troubled Doom 4 being retargeted for next-genera

frag.machine's use of quotes confused me, for a moment I was thinking "Did I really say that about sprites? Really?" I was very tired on my previous posts, so I actually went and read up just to be sure... Don't discuss games when exhausted folks.

Re: Report: Troubled Doom 4 being retargeted for next-genera

That is Doom 64, it sounds like a nice feature. XBLA Doom/2 requires you manually cycle through each gun as they raise and lower.

I played plenty of Doom keyboard only myself, as Quake introduced me to play with the mouse. The gamepad is the worst experience of the lot for fast movement and angle ...

Re: Report: Troubled Doom 4 being retargeted for next-genera

Those console ports are good, but they are good because it is just much harder on a gamepad. The game expects you to be able to switch to specific weapons on demand, but the gamepad only allows for cycling. It expects faster turning as well, and odd turning while moving around a lot, and engaging ...

Re: What are you working on?

I've been mostly writing for either truepcgaming.com or my own domain, scar3crow.com
I also took 15 minutes to try and make the Quake symbol using the Black Ops 2 emblem editor... http://imgur.com/ttASVQK

Quake Confessions

Wherein I shamelessly rip off a Doomworld forum thread about Doom confessions.


I've never played Nehahra or watched Seal of Nehahra. I got twenty minutes into the movie and got bored. I got through a few levels of Nehahra but couldn't take the crazy strafing monsters and quit.
I've still not ...

Re: Report: Troubled Doom 4 being retargeted for next-genera

Its okay, it also works for the same purpose when RPS quotes snippets with their own hyperbole and just links out.

I've no idea what to expect with Doom 4 honestly. So long as they're keeping gamepads in mind, it isn't going to be like Doom or Doom 2. If it is like anything, it will be a slower ...
