Where Are They Now

Another new installment in the "Where Are They Now" feature on The Mushroom talking to Quake 1 mod authors. This time they tracked down Scott Dalton, currently level designer at Unreal 2. His Quake 1 work of fame is the Zerstorer: Testament of the Destroyer mod, which is actually my favorite mod for the game.

Wow, it's amazing to see that people even remember ZerstÃ¶rer ... much less have nice things to say about it. :-) I have a Lot of fond memories working with the entire team on that Mod.

My only regret is that we didn't get it out sooner, since Quake2 came out a few weeks after and kinda overshadowed it. We had some great deathmatch maps from Scott Dalton and Kandyman that didn't really get played much once Quake2 was out (understandably).

Anyway, thanks for all the kind words.

Man that mod ruled for both single play and multiplayer! I played that for months after Q2 came out. I think it was one of the last things I got into in Quake1.

And I really do think that Steve should put together a Q1 mods page for this page. So that all can download them and bask in thier glory.

Were you supposed to just get pretty much immediately killed at the end? That's what I remember happening.

Zerstorer had it all: rain effects, big new baddies, new levels, statues that came alive, and more and more. People forget that Quake1 had some of the most ambitious mods ever! Threewave CTF, Team Fortress, Rocket Arena, QRally, QChess, Rise of the Pheonix, Snow Boarding Quake (think it was called "Slide"), AirQuake, Breakout Quake (not sure what its name was), PainKeep. In fact, I think that it would be really useful to have a website of the best Quake1 mods of all time. They are still worth playing today... and hey, since Quake was open sourced by Carmack, many could be played for free, as long as they don't depend on Quake1 art.
