  • Hi all

    I'm an oldschool Quaker, played from +- 1997 until 2003 or something.

    played mostly on the Dutch/Swedish servers with the Jitmod CTF. When that scene died I did some DM and some QW. Meanwhile I started playing Counter-Strike beta 6 and played that for a long time until 1.6 along with Q3, Unreal Tournament and other tactical shooters like Swat 4, Rainbow Six series etc.

    I quit actively gaming for a while I've got a few consoles which are only catching dust. Games these days as they are not that challenging and bore me quickly.
    Online shooters have never reached the fun that Quake had. Games look beautiful but they don't have the speed, the tactics, the skills (Rocketjump, bunnyhopping, player prediction (you knew the spots where to shoot etc) and most of all fun.

    After all these years I found my quake cd, installed it and found this site. Hopefully I can dig up my other files like old clanwar/deathmatch demo files somewhere and other old tools/paks/cfgs/maps etc. I want to play some good old Quake soon

    I have some questions:
    - Is there a european NQ scene left? (DM/CTF)
    - How big is the european QW scene these days?
    - Does anybody have the jitmod as a lot of stuff disappeared from the internet during time.

          I remember you, i think.
          Ya the JIT mod CRCTF? Modified CRCTF2.8k, hmm no even back in 2000 that was very hard to get. If u need a copy of my updated CRCTF 3.5 lemme know. The Brazilians use(d) it, but ctf has been low. People just refuse to learn to ride that bike! Dunno why, the hook is just point hold let go. IMHO CTF IS the BEST FUCKN QUAKE MOD!!
          QW is very bleak in the last year, soley because they focus on FFA custom maps. Just doesnt have the grit it used to. There are active Qw ctf SERVERS BUT not running JIT. Crappy old 3wave 4.21

            Thanks for the replies! I used to play a lot on the servers quake.demon.nl/quake.wxs.nl/quake.xs4all.nl i think.
            The jitmod was freely available from earthquake.xs4all.nl which is down for a long while now. I want to run a Quake RA and/or Quake Jitmod server in the future if there is still animo for it. There aren't a lot of European servers unfortunately.
