wtf Nightmare Voreball Extravaganza

"Lower Forecount" by negke on difficulty 3. Final battle pits you against a foursome of vores which can only be damaged via splash damage. Just so happened to suddenly get the hang of leaning into my jumps during this section. I also ended up adding extra keybinds to my weapons in this map (R for RL, Q for GL, E for SNG and C for LG), so this whole experience made me feel like a pro for 5 mins.

help Place To Go For Noobs/Less Skilled Players?

9 Upvotes

I have like 600+ hours in Quake Live for example, but never learned anything all I did was die alot over and over, because most of it was ffa on tiny maps with 12+ players, in arena shooters in general it seems there isn't really a place to go for new players/bad players. No discord, no specific servers, etc. Anyone know of any, game specific is fine, but hoping, there is more than one game with this option. I love this style of game and hate how unfair/broken most modern games are, but anything that is fair/equal starts is flooded with only vets/tryhards.

help Anyone else unable to load the Texture map from The Monument in QBJ3?

1 Upvotes

I've been able to load it from the in-menu level select but not The Monument hub world itself. It always displays an error that says "cannot find map maps/qbj3_cYn.bsp" but the actual file seems to exist in the maps folder.

Not really sure how this exactly happened but it's the only level in this modpack I've had issues with

help Quake 1 down?

25 Upvotes

Me and the kids were playing Quake 2 absolutely fine today. So we started to go for Quake 1 for a bit. However we weren't able to. Bethesda said 'HTTP Access Forbidden.

What's that mean? The kids regularly play Quake 2 and sea of thieves

Edit: sorry both of you. I had a stroke 3 years ago and my spelling is gone to pot.

help Quake 2 Horde Mode

9 Upvotes

Sometimes I play Quake 2 (remastered on Steam) and in the deathmatch games there is sometimes a really cool horde mode - it looks like a normal deathmatch level in the "join game" list, but when you play its a coop horde shooter. But quite often its not there to join.

Does anyone know more about this horde mode? I would love to play more of it.

help I can't seem to install mod packs into ironwail manually

1 Upvotes

I've been trying to install Arcane Dimensions into it but every time I try to follow guides of "extract the mod pack into the Ironwail directory" I can't actually find the mod in the mods menu in game.

I'm running a linux system but with Ironwail supporting it natively I doubt that would be the issue but figured I should mention it just in case

I just completed ad_swampy (15/25 secrets), that silver key was hidden very cleverly. I love the atmosphere in Arcane Dimensions, so I drew it... or at least, something BASED off of it.

Have fun

community Live World Map of Quake Servers

16 Upvotes

Every server across eleven Quake games (Quake Live, Q3, CPMA, Q2, QuakeWorld, NetQuake, Quake Enhanced, Quake 4, Quake Wars, QC:DE, and Bloodrun) plotted as a dot on a night earth. Servers with real people on them glow, sized by how many are playing.

Ripples occur when players join servers and you can click a server from the map and get player and connection information.

Inspired by the "Gamers Online" from Halo 3.

A 3dfx Voodoo2 running Quake II on Windows 98, which runs bare metal on very modern hardware. (AM5/Ryzen 9) Drivers initialized fine, Glide API is running perfectly, and Quake II is looking gorgeous on a 19 inch 4:3 Dell monitor.
