about the quake-large.zip

it seems to be missing a whole lot of maps.. strangely enough it has maps like watrways, but excludes xnq1000...

thats not chronological, also the maps.zip hasn't been updated for a while, it might seem logical to presume I'm teh only one using it (frequently)?

would be big ups to have it updated once in a while

cheers

quake-large.zip SHOULD contain all maps except for the newest bunch.

maps.zip hasn't been updated in ages.

As a non-Quake runner, I really appreciated these updates. Glad to see them, and I'm thankful someone pointed out that they even happened. It'd really be nice if some kind of mention was made on the main news page, but that hasn't been done for a looong while now so I'm not expecting that. [Still, it'd be helpful - as a total newb, I find the Quake part of the site somewhat confusing, despite how spectacular all of the demos are, so I often avoid it.]

Anyway, thanks for this!

You're welcome! We're just delighted that someone outside of our very narrow Quake speedrunning community actually care at all :-) And yes, I agree completely, the Quake page is a big pile of mess for those not used to browsing it, but since the community is getting smaller and smaller I don't think any effort is ever going to be put into redesigning it. I've started filtering out any broken links and such, but that's about it.

It's highly unusual, but there's already been another Quake update :-)

Awesome. By the way, that id documentary is pretty interesting so far. I eagerly await future installments.

I checked out some of their previous "seasons." Good web show, that one. Though, they really need to pick better game footage much of the time, and they shouldn't end every series as if there won't be more story to tell in 3-5 years. Also, it's a bit on the over-congratulatory side at times. But still very good and informative.

Now let's hope they finally start talking about Quake in the fourth id installment.

Yeah I saw that one, thanks. Sadly that's it for id Software. They just started another series on Blizzard. Anyway, keep us posted on whatever Quake updates are posted.

Hey Ho Let's Go

There's an update up by Nahkahiir :-)

Hopefully Rage and Doom 4 will put iD Software back where they belong, i.e. on top, but the most likely scenario is that we're all gonna be dissapointed in some way or another with how those games turn out. Rage looks pretty stunning though, but the gameplay is probably a pile of horse poo.

Thanks for the heads up on the Blizzard series. I'll be following that too (I don't think I've played a game as much as Diablo 2 except for Quake of course).

Impressive runs, guys. Fun to watch as always.

Just popping in to let you know there's an updated version of mappi2 which has a critical coop crash bug fixed that Optimus Joop and NahkahiiR ran into a couple of days ago. The new version is fully compatiple to all existing demos of course. Same download link as the original release.

Oh my oh my, what an idiot I am. It never occured to me to check Quaddicted (I was just looking at func). Sorry.

I've uploaded the new version to SDA.

Hey Ho Let's Go

Can we expect more DM to SP magic from you btw? I really enjoy those kind of maps.
