Deathmatch Guide by Retrocade
It seems Rectrocade got a bit bored on his day off from work, and decided to take a break from fragging and catch some of you up to speed on the gameplay of DM3, which will snowball you into usefull skills later on in other DM maps. I myself found this very read worthy, even being a 14+ year veteran of the game. I highly suggest that some of you coming back take a gander at this and see what it's all about, it is very helpful!

Zero server has moved!
Monoxide, who hosts zero.quakeone.com, has moved his 3wave CRCTF server back to Chicago by popular demand. If you weren't aware, this server was in New York for awhile. Since Yayowave is down, some of the players were pushing for this Chicago move. Thank you Monoxide for pleasing the people. And if some of you 3wavers are wondering, yes Yayowave will be back, I am just now sure when. The current ip for the zero server is 75.102.38.124 , last I knew, the dns wasn't working yet but will be soon!

Finished Works
The image with this post is from the guys over at QRP, their release is QRP's first add-on pack for Quake mission pack 1: Scourge of Armagon (SoA)! I hope this means there will be a second! There are a lot of finished works that need attention, if you haven't done so lately, you really need to swing by the Finished Works forum and check them out. There are some beautiful releases that some or all of you need to see! We all appreciate the work that's going on in this forum, and thank you all!

Hello,

I wanted to post a reply to this news, because I feel I have to.

Thank you Frenzy for editing the news text and pointing out QRP´s (Moon[Drunk]´s) Mission Pack 1 textures.
This release is the outstanding one for this year !
The time and effort, that has been put into it is enormous.
Creating hundreds of new textures from scratch in this amazing quality is simply awesome and MUST be mentioned on the front page.

And what would we be without replacement world textures ?
The world textures are what we see every single split second while walking through maps.
Other replacements like b_boxes or g_weapons for example are much less important in my opinion, because you see them "rarely".
Of course it makes a nice complete picture, but compared to world textures, everything else is less important.


Having said this, I´d like to give a tip regarding these textures.
I suggest you put the pack into ID1 and not Hipnotic folder.
Reason:
The Mission pack will still use the replacement textures, but the benefit is, that this way
also fan-made maps/episodes, that make use of the hipnotic wad textures will use them !
It even doesnt matter in which subfolder you put the fan-made-maps.
The engine will always look into ID1 and uses the replacement content that fits the maps textures/construction.


Thank you Moon[Drunk] for your remarkable contributions over ALL those years.

Yes, Moon[Drunk] has done big things. As I look at the site, I feel sad seeing so many "inactive" on the team, knowing what COULD BE with that team!
