Planet Quake
Tonight's the night PC'ers, you all get to meet the DreamCast
players online! The DC
Map Pack is upon us. This is 23 levels that are new to
the PC crowd, but all of commercial quality. Head to Sega's
Quake III area and get your downloads started!
The "Dreamcast Map
Pack" includes maps formerly exclusive to the
Dreamcast version of the game, and enables Windows,

environments against Dreamcast gamers online. The pack
also includes alternate versions of non-exclusive
popular favorites, and the new maps are playable in
several different QUAKE III Arena play modes.
In order to play against
Dreamcast gamers online, PC users must have a 1.16n or
lower version of QUAKE III Arena available, and use GameSpy
3D or PingTool to browse the Sega Dreamcast servers.

05/16/2001
Hint brush tutorial
input
I have received many letters on hint brushes now, I will
be making a few changes to the tutorial. The main one is
the command to see what the PVS is to view it type
\r_lockpvs 1 the engine will only draw what your pvs is,
from where you were standing when you entered that
command.
The same command but with a 0 turns it off. I hope to make
the changes to the tutorial by this weekend.....

Making a doorway
tutorial updated
I have been told the
doorway tutorial needed more detail example of how I cut
up the brushes so like a real trooper I did just
that. Doorway Tutorial
As always if you find something in my tutorials that
doesn't make any since or could use some more work please email
me.
03/01/2001
Just did some
rewording of my light tutorial.
To save you from looking at it all the main thing is to
use info_nulls to target light entities to get that spot
light effect, and not to use target_positions. The reason
is target positions are remembered by the game engine and
info_null are not, so target positions are using some of
that computers power well I want all the power I can get
to help frag.

The Q3Dm0Door Prefab
Fixed
Has been fixed with a 2 unit wide area portal brush's so
if you haven't downloaded it yet grab it here.
If you have already you could re-download it or just fix
it your self.
Time to clean up the
site a bit.
I will be removing some of the files on my site as my host
said its time to trim out some space on the hard drive.
The first thing to go will be the team arena demo 120 megs
worth.
Prefab news
I also have learned the area portals should be 3 units
wide or smaller so this means the door prefab will have to
be changed if you have already downloaded it just edit the
area portal so its thinner. I will redo it and upload
later.

Major Oops in
Fps Textures Fixed!!!!
In the set of textures that I just released a few days ago
I had saved many of them with a darker layer in the
background texture.
They didn't work with the base id textures because of this
I redid them and you will have to re-down load them. The
extra textures are now in the same pk3. If you downloaded
them already delete fps_add1.zip and fps1.pk3. And then
open the new zip.
Sorry for the screw up these are all tested and they do
work.........
Go here for preview and
download.
12/17/2000

Gone
GOLD Team Arena
Following the Todd Hollenshead update by mere moments, Robert
Duffy has a .plan
file update of his own. Here's the next one telling us
all that Quake III Team Arena is a done deal and with news
on the source code in this one, I'll post the whole update
as well.
Team Arena is Gold. :-)
Some other things coming down the pipe from us in the
near future.
Source code was made available earlier today to MOD
authors so they can prepare their mods to be compatible
with the 1.27 point release. This will help get everyone
up on the same rev of the game at the same time. The
point release ( 1.27 ) will be released a day or two
before Team Arena hits shelves.
As soon as Team Arena is on shelves, full tool source
code will be released as well as new executables and I
beleive Graeme will be releasing the ROQ compiler as
well. These are all good things. I am going to get
Timothee and the GTKRadiant crew tool source in a day or
so, so they can prepare that flavor of the editor and
tools for the masses.
The official combined game source will be released
during the same time period as the tools. This will be
the integrated Q3A and TA source base.
Thanks to everyone that assisted with testing during the
beta cycle and feedback during the demo.
