I needed to ask about something that may change a pretty big part of the mod. Is it just me, or is Visor one of the zombie guys from Quake 2 with the blaster, shotgun, or machinegun? I was asking becasue if he is, would you guys consider using his model for the singleplayer mode in the future? Also, would you ever change the title screen to using Anarki or Xaero for the Arena Gladiator holding the rail gun? Thanks again for your time and effort with the mod.

Visor is in no way related to the Quake2 enemies. He looks entirely different to me, and the only thing that might somehow be taken as slightly similar is the fact that his face is covered by something. However, the slab of somethingness that covers Visor's face (if he indeed has one) is not at all like the helmets the Q2 'zombies' had. Visor runs like mad and has bionic legs of some sort - two things I can in no way compare to the Q2 'zombies' either.
Nup, I really don't see why it'd be resurgence material :]

Also, Visor is THE Quake3 model. He and Sarge have been in since Q3Test, and if any Quake 3 character is typical of the game, it's one of those two. So no, it's unlikely that the title screen will ever change to show a different character.

[Kruzader]: A mappack of what exactly? There is no new set of maps defined for Generations yet, and what we have compiled is already in neat mappacks. So the answer is either: Yes, we already have three mappacks easily downloadable - or Yes, whenever there will be a new mappack, you'll be able to download it as easily as the first three.

I was curious.... If Visor is not from Quake 2, then why is Major, who was from Quake 2, holding Visor's head on the statues in Quake 3 (check the stautes on the first DM map with Ranger)? It seems very logical to me.

This is why, at the moment, the Euro server is running with sv_pure set to 0. Mind you, this is because we know and trust everyone that shows up there. If there'd be 20+ strangers every day, it'd probably be a different story.


I thought I was clear about Visor, but perhaps I was not. I've made the following useful reference sheet to make my meanings crystal:



I know the 'visor' itself is similar, but that is really the only thing that is even remotely comparable. A 'cyborg' is not automatically Stroggish.. if this were so, Robocop would be a Strogger (hell, he even has a visor!), as would the Terminator. :]

I've honestly considered changing the Bug Reports forum to include suggestions, or perhaps adding a separate suggestions board

That's how you select your colors already. Your railcolors control your player colors.

I have a problem. I'm new to XP (put it on thursday)  (but not Gen) and I THINK that 99e is being locked up by something in XP home. Could this be messanger? what the F*ck is messanger, and how do I stop it anyone?

UT seems to run ok, but Gen 99e locks up and gives a repeat loop of sound, about 0.5 sec long.

PS: hunk megs are set.

PPS: love the new gun models etc.

STOP PRESS: It only happens with bots! never otherwise.
another stop press: It didn't happen on the euro server - until i lanched a grenade!  I'll try dropping the graphics etc. this never happened with 99d guys. what am I doing wrong?

this is whats running in the background....

does not happen with vanilla  Q3 by the way...

I will trim the list and see.

ZL is zonealarm
Ghost is norton ghost
INcd is rewriteable software for nero.

thanks Tab

SORTED! I dropped the texture detail to med and the detail to med and then its runs like a bute. (that means very well). I even did a restart with all background progs on, and 1024x768 and 5 Bots. good FPS etc ad no locks or crashes. This must be textures thing. I'll now try on my M.E. comp.

(later)

works on my 800 mgz with voodoo 5, 640 ram with bots and med texture detail.

love the HUDS
