I just noticed r00k say that fullbrightskins in netQuake are a no-no, and rather than offtopic QWCLAW's post I brought it here instead.
Take a look at that. Then anyone who knows they can justify why fullbrights are a no no in multiplayer Q1, drop your opinion right here!
I'll go ahead and give my opinion,which is this...
Quake is not hide and seek! "See enemy, Kill enemy" is my motto! The only reason I could ever surmise why fullbright's was considered a no-no was because all the campers hiding in dark corners would be seen.
I've noticed on Shmack back in the day,a player will be on a map with dark area standing their attempting to be hidden/camping.
The maps E4M2 & E4M8 come to mind immediately.....
Dark spots EVERYWHERE on this map.
@ the exit is huge room of darkness,you get a Rune there...
Not that I ever (get to) play those maps anymore,because between DM4,Start & DM6 is king of get voted @ Shmack...
