Quake3 Mod Source

Just made it home, looks like the Quake3 source for all the mod makers has been released. You can grab it from the id Software ftp.Robert Duffy has made a .plan update to commemorate the occasion.

There is a "How to make a mod" text file included which shows the very basics of building the source for debugging ( Win32, Visual C++ ) and building the vms for distributing mods. It also shows steps to get your mod to run with the engine. PLEASE NOTE: The game source MUST BE INSTALLED in quake3 off of whatever drive you like. This is so the batch files and the lcc compiler can find all the right stuff for building vm's. The tool source and video compressor will be out next week. This will include source q3data, q3map, q3asm, q3radiant, our version of lcc and the executable for the video compressor.
Here are a few more mirrors that you can download the source from: shugashack.com , ftp.cdrom.com , liquid.lithium.com , www.quakecity.net , www.ve3d.net

  • I\'ve skied for 15 years and I put a pole into some kids leg, right into the flesh, it ruled. Well, both times i\'ve gone it was pretty bad. The first time I was with my brother who was a professional snowboarder for Burton in the early 90\'s, I got into a fight with some kid who was saying shit about my brother, I cold-cocked him and kicked him in the head with boots that had steel lining. That ruled too. The other time I did a backflip (On accident) off a jump and the board hit me in the back of my head and cracked my head open, I bled really bad and got another brain concussion. I just hope I live this time. :D

  • Heist looks bad ass.
    heist.telefragged.com now that is going to own gay ass counterstrike and boring action crap quake. Check out that bank with all the glass and shit, nice. Other good mods, check out www.quake3mods.net (I might start reviewing maps there). I love Quake 3, ohhh it\'s soooo better than any game out - specially gh3y 455 qu4k3 cl0n3 Unreal Tournament, that game sucks isn\'t very good.
    I just hope people don\'t make Counterstrike, Urban\'ish mods - that\'s all they did for Quake 2 and Half Life. It\'s shit, total shit - make something original. I got plenty of ideas but i\'m not going through with them.
    Personally I want a mod like Postal (Anyone remember that?), I would be so happy killing little kids and defenseless old woman. Shit i\'m getting memories. *Cries*

    I REGRET NOTHING
    *BooM*
