QuakeRally: The Mod That Refuses To Come Out.

It sorta kinda existed in Quake 1, but the lack of QuakeWorld support pretty much made it a cult thing.

Then it was supposed to come out for Quake 2, with sound effects by some kid who was like Lowtax but without all the funny parts. That got scrapped for the Quake 3 engine.

And now here's Quake 3, and there's files out, but lo and behold, their just making an SDK and not bringing the full thing? Er... What? Will there ever be a QuakeRally mod I'll ever get to play?

They keep saying it's not the game (which it isn't), but it is in fact playable. strange.

ACK! GET THAT ORIGINAL SHIT OUT OF HERE AND CLONE CS YOU FOOLS!!!

Looks like a sweet idea, keep up the good work

"but money is not an issue/goal on this mod. it is, and will always be a labor of love, and not for a paycheck"

That's the same thing I heard when I was on the CS team, heh. I learned CS was bought out by Valve and going retail...when I read the topic on the Shack - lol. But yeah, the rest of your post convinced me at least that you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, Q3R looks like a top-notch mod. I suggest you guys put together a desktop version of the shack car though, would be great promotion, especially here :D

Is this kind of along the lines of the B&W readme about the patch they're going to release some day?

I remember the golden years when folks would release betas.

Then it became point releases then betas.

Now it's info about the next release of the next beta...

This probably makes no sense. Actually, I am looking forward to a full release of this. Looks sweet.

please tell me that's a temporary skin :)

and I like the sponsored automobiles idea, but where is the shackmobile ??

I tried to contact 2 guys from the Q3R team about making a map for them a few months back, and I never got a reply from either one of them. Not a single reply, even from the guy who was always online. Not even like a "we're busy, go away" msg.

I got the same cold shoulder from the main coder of another high profile q3 mod. Well, not exactly the same. He replied to me, but with minimilistic, 10 minute delayed responses, and he seemed incredibly labored to say absolutely anything to me. He let out a long sigh after only 3 or 4 messages over the course of 2 days, when I asked him the url for a messageboard he told me to go to. (I asked him for the icq #'s of the other team members, and he told me if I wanted them to go check the messageboard, because apparently he couldn't be bothered to just send me contacts)

On the other hand, the HL community is entirely different. Seems every mod team I contacted was very responsive and enthusiastic about their project. The vibe was just totally different with HL guys than it was with Q3.

Yes! I win my bet! I had money that a version of Q3Rally would come out before Bid For Power! BOOYAH

wow
i didnt even know this mod existed :)

maarten: are they using your screenshot code?

One thing I'm wondering about is control: what kind of options are there for control? Will I be able to setup a multibutton throttle? Is there a standard keyboard setup?

One thing I know for sure is that I won't be using the mouse much during gameplay.

Yea, q3rally is gonna rejuvinate some life back into q3, I've been looking forward to this one for quite some time.

Weird, Maarten used my full name. He's never done that before.

AWRIIIIIIIITE!!!

I've been given another reason to reinstall Q3!!

quakerally is funner than maartens in a barrel
