Both of you seem to have not understood what open-source is about, nor did you understand my argument at all. I know what open source is; I just don't subscribe to the toxic notion of 'software freedom' by telling others they can't have the freedom of not having 'software freedom', because that isn...

I mean seriously, how is this significantly different from Nexuiz (the commercial one)? Because something costs money ( oh my god ) and it's an arena game , you can't tell between an indie game that's kickstarting and an indie game that was published under a troubled publisher bleeding money until ...

there is no way around it except open-source community ownership.

Shut up


Good luck Electro!

It also happens in pure C. I believe it has to do with drawing one whole pixel covering the screen, and trying to draw the next but it couldn't find a space for it and has an access violation right there. An alternative way to fix this would be better sprite clipping code that's more aware of screen...

Isn't Drupal wormed as hell too?

Personally what I would do is move the news into the forum system and have the front page feed off it, like the OA site, and like func_

Q1source.zip is missing the proper makefile, QIP fixes that with a new one (but unfortunately QIP also uses long file names which breaks compiling it on pure dos (non win9x) systems).

I discovered the crash happening in Quake 1.01 (yes this crash goes way back, errormessage spewing something about surfacecache) after trying a mod that spammed bubbles exactly at the view, where swimming backwards would trigger a crash. I kept reproducing this crash, kept debugging and managed to f...

learning this negative brush mapping thing...

no.

what? all that colorshifting stuff could be done directly at flip

shotgun modeled and ingame


also made some character proportion tweaks, good call jitspoe

but what if the engine just store the pallete with the texture and switch palletes during rendering ? Bad idea: You would need a generated loopup table for every unique texture palette each, regardless of pixel depth. But anyway, going this over: - You really really need a 15-bit, 16-bit or 24-bit ...

24-bit in software? Isn't that going to be slow? It'll only be slower for buffer transfer on slower machines and their slow video cards, and the fact there's no Abrash assembly code for 24-bit color (though there is leftover 16bpp assembly code that I'm not sure if it even works since that was impl...

Considering the upgrades necessary to make the surfacecache suitable for this (DO NOT FORGET THE MIPBLOCK FUNCTIONS which comes before drawspans) you'd better off be just directly loading all textures as 24-bit at this point.


(Which is possible and clever trickery can make it work in 256 colors)
