My
friend RINE has
introduced me to a music plugin player call KOAN.
From my reading it's
a stream-lining toll for music on the web, more info when I test it out.

Heretic
II Demo Unlock Patch. Get it here.
If you previously downloaded the Heretic II demo the executable
will expire in November, 1998. If you try to launch the Demo after
it has expired, you will receive an Unauthorized Access error
message and will not be allowed to enter the game. To fix this,
simply download the unlock.

conscious folks, and poor souls with crappy ISP's. Get it HERE.
Also,
direct FTP downloads are tons faster, as well as often giving the option
to resume broken downloads (this is a very good thing). You can find a
ton'o FTP clients HERE.
I personally use FTP Explorer, but it's not on there... When I remember
where I got it I'll post the site :)

EDITOR'S
NOTE: THIS VERSION OF THE DEMO UNFORTUNATELY HAS A COPY PROTECTION LEFT
IN IT, MEANING THAT THIS DEMO WILL EXPIRE ON NOVEMBER 1, 1998. ACTIVISION
IS WORKING
TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND WE WILL HAVE THE CORRECTED VERSION AVAILABLE
FOR
DOWNLOADING THE AFTERNOON OF FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23.

Quake
II version 3.20 (beta) is available for download, and it compatible with
3.19 servers.... A few of the changes are:
-
Fixed
a network problem where and oversize packet could cause a client
-
crash.
-
Fixed
the long standing Quake2 bug of where you would occasionally spawn
-
or
teleport and find yourself either looking straight at the ceiling or
-
down
at the floor.
-
Changed
it so that the function keys (F1 through F12) now get executed when
-
depressed
during demo playback or attract modes. This allows you to take
-
screen
shots (F12) during demos and other features. An example of other
-
features
is a fast forward for demos:
-
alias
+ff "timedemo 1"
-
alias
-ff "timedemo 0"
-
bind
f7 +ff
-
This
binding will cause the current demo playing to zip into timedemo mode
-
while
F7 is depressed, effectively acting like a fast forward key.
-
Wrong
packaging of 3.19 patch. The Rogue CD has a 45k pak2 and vwep .md2
-
files
in baseq2/players, but the 3.19 x86 patch we released has a 2.7MB
-
pak2.
3.20 has a 45k pak2 and the vwep models go in baseq2/players.

a complete list of changes and to download go here.

Well, I just
got word from FADZ that the server is down...
A DIRECT QUOTE:
Nofadz.com, The RA2 Clan
List, Our Quake Servers, Hosted Sites and
everything else "NoFaDz"
will be offline until at least October 25th,
1998.
Here's a direct quote from
our ISP, where our servers are co-located:
"primary hard disk fail..
sounds like the head went up on the master
drive.. horrible tapping
and grinding sound.. it's toasted."

WOOHOO!!!
As you may have
noticed, I taught myself frames with a little prompts from Fadz and Gusty...
And this book called "HTML For The World Wide Web"
So hell yeah!
Got some minor
tweaks to do, but aside from that, it's all good.
~¥~~¥~~¥~~¥~~¥~~¥~~¥~~¥~
For all of you
who like to Tweak I got a tweak document by a fella named acidbrnd^ that
can improve the way Winblows works (more for Win98, but some can work for
Win95)

Well, I downloaded
the Intensor sound PAK, and it's ok. It has most of the game sounds redone
with more bass, and a few new sounds to boot. It's 12.8 MB, and only worth
d/l if you got a good sound system, we're talkin sub woofers and such,
but it rocks if you got them...

A little ICQ
advice...
Backup that DB
folder, that'swhere the contact list lives.... Then restore it to your
ICQ dir after reinstalling via DOS.
It'll give all
back, which saves you a buncha crap.

For those of
you who like WINAMP, or other MP3/CDA/etc players, I got a killer one.

It just rocks
ass, and looks damn cool too

And there's KJOFOL
Wayfarer's much bragged about VQF player.
VQF's are much
smaller than MP3's, and sound even better, and it looks cool too....

In an effort
to improve my site by giving myself more time and resources, I have added
a few banners. Some are to XXX sites cause quite simply, they pay better.
I find myself with very little time to even sleep between work, school,
this site and Q2 editing. Also, more time could be spent on my schooling,
which is computer programming, cause I got big plans for Q3 Arena, but
need to learn a little more to accomplish it.
So PLEASE
CLICK MY BANNERS, it'll help to
make this site even more helpful and informative, as well as getting a
better layout.
