Baker created his own "Steam" for Quake!

Goodjob

I've been working on this concept on and off for 2 years.

Here is a screenshot from August 16, 2005 on a roughy idea draft of this:



Last year (2006), I worked on it some more about the time I was working on the Undergate. I made a lot of progress, but not with the interface.

This should be available as beta on Monday (<--- that means it won't happen until Tuesday or Wednesday, heheh).

This is so awesome and i'm the type of gamer who likes to see my game dirs.. but this is making Quake look more competitive aginst other games/game services!

I'm looking forward to the beta release on "Thursday" ;D

For instance, JoeQuake hates the Zerstorer end movie.

I think this is because the zerend map contains a non-standard sized sky tex. And it's not a movie (i.e. demo), it's a long scripted sequence.
