ProQuake 4.43

Hows bouts the power of 2 texture bug, of software rendering, Baker?

Eventually I'll have a look at that. I have a list of things I want to do in the near-term:

Download: ProQuake 4.66 - Mac OS X - 1.8 MB

FitzQuake protocol support in both the OpenGL and software renderer versions: can play all single player maps. Both OpenGL and software renderer (WinQuakey) builds. Note: ARWOP tends to crash the software renderer version.



This thread is too long and I'll be starting a new ProQuake thread once I have the other builds completed.

Download: ProQuake 4.43 - 1.5 MB (Source)

This may be the last new version of ProQuake in a while. But it appears to be very solid.

File not found! On both links!

I move obsoleted versions into the previous versions folder which is linked on the ProQuake page:

(4.43 is like 10 versions old now )

I've got a ProQuake SDL for Linux build of ProQuake 4.66 complete with working using Code::Blocks.

Features include every non-Windows specific feature of modern ProQuake like no need for the command line, video mode switching and all the other features. (Windows specific examples: i.e. no clipboard copy, DirectInput, AVI capture as the capture code is highly Windows specific, etc.)

I'm not going to fast track release it as alpha or beta, rather it will be released whenever the next version happens to occur.

I'm spending time reorganizing the entire project structure of ProQuake and all of the various builds.

Won't have a 64-bit version, I am not running a 64-bit Linux so someone wanting 64-bit is going to have to self-help from insight gained from the Quakespasm engine or lxndr's modification of the Qrack Linux source in Phenom's compiling Qrack on Linux thread:

Anyway, this version will be out with whenever the next ProQuake release happens (days or weeks, I can't quite say and making progress coding is most important to me at the moment ... but when it happens I expect the release to be high quality).

I thought I'd have a ProQuake update this week until 3 days I got my hands on Windows 7 64 machine and also installed 64-bit Ubuntu.

ProQuake gets a crash on the Win 64 machine, I have to do some work to compile for Linux 64 bit (I have a Linux 32-bit SDL ProQuake I made a week or 2 ago).

So anyway, nothing to release today as I hit an unexpected curve.

Baker - Use svn or git!

I am doing some monstrously huge things to the entire ProQuake project structure. Even something like Git would be useless for the scope of the changes.

I was wondering if there is any chance of automatic playback of mp3's in the future?

Thanks for the port regardless.

DOH!
You are the biggest tease!

Outta curiousity which is the source in that the namings all are consistent yet none say (src) or (source).

So does that mean it includes all? Src + build?

I suppose i could just dl it all and find out... but i'm quite lazy.

Anyho was just curious.

GL with your project.

I only care about your GL quake progress

Heh.

~Cheers.

baker's post is a year old.

DOH!
You are the biggest tease!

Most of the stuff I ultimately moved to Engine X instead and when Engine X is done, I'll work on ProQuake being a sub build of Engine X.

But until I get time to wrap up Engine X ... time which I do not have right now *sniff* ...

I suppose i could just dl it all and find out... but i'm quite lazy.

Most of the ones except the very stable ones have enough "where's Waldo?" type of problems. Any time a ton of incremental releases are done, many of the versions are fixing bug reports posted in the forums in the next one.

The change log posted on the ProQuake page (click change log) lists key revision items.

I sure wouldn't be looking for the ones with bugs ... but from time to time I need them.

Either way, they are "there" ... but what they've got inside them is fun between you and your zip utility. I couldn't tell you offhand the contents of any of them by memory.

At least you got kurok released this year.
I had hoped to goad you into a Xmas update since you have been promising the moon for a year now without even a preview.
If you don't get the lead out you and Rook both are gonna be left behind by the new and updated clients.

Well, I can't be goaded. Here is why.

My goal is to revitalize multiplayer, single player and coop. I will never ceased to pursue that goal.

I have a list of problems with Quake. It is about 20 items long.

Less than that, putting out an idea won't be effective. I don't know if you were around to see to boom in 2006 and its eventually decline around 2007 and then a slow decline from 2008 to 2009 and a sharp decline over the last 2 years, but I was there and understand why it happened. Likewise, I'm not interested in history repeating itself.

So I've have decided to take an approach to build up client and server capabilities privately with a list of goals that must be met and mostly not talk about these goals, since I want a large leap forward to be an exciting and surprising thing.

Although, I'm not going to talk about what I have been working on, I would be interested in hearing your analysis of the boom in 2006, followed by the gradual decline in 2007 and the sharp decline in the last 2 years. I think if you could describe that you would see the logic behind my reasoning, and through that understand my motivations, strategy and goals.

Sorry B
I have only been back about a year now,if that long.
I was last active around 2002-3.
As for what I would like to see in a new build would be backwards compatibility
with Q1,2 and 3 and the mods that were developed for them.Unification of the quake community seems needed if it is to survive,but I have no idea if this is achievable without loosing the realtime feel of Q1 NQ.
One client to rule them all
One server to find them.
