Just to note that we have per-frame bounding boxes with MDLs as well now (r_showbboxes 2 to check them out); not that difficult to implement and they can save some performance in places.
It would take an eternity to reach the earth and even when you reached the destination, you wouldn't actually hit the ground. You'd be going so fast you'd just go through and out the other side.

The buggy flyer was caused by a version switch of Blender from 2.4 to 2.5 IIRC and changes in how Blender does animations. It worked fine before that.

Just need to redo the anims really.
I'll have to kill Borov AGAIN.

Yep.  We were gonna go for xmas day, but there's some model issues to fix that will take a few more days.

Expect 3 maps at least, plus new monsters, weapons, BSP2 tools, hirez textures, improved engine, and a whole bunch of other features.

We've been busy :)

Another delay!

It's the 30th, and I'm tired.  And want to be drunk(er).

We beg your patience for a little while longer.  I'm sure most of you are having non-Quake related fun around now anyway.

Releasing around holiday-time was never very realistic IMHO ;)

Ok, we seem to have settled on a release date - Ricky's map was at 73% vis and counting at last check, I've got a few different meshes and sounds to fix and we're good.

So in order to have a stress free life 'this weekend' is the new date, you lucky people.

So get ready to tear yourselves away from the Steam purchases and enjoy 4 (!) new RMQ levels.  This release will also include a full devkit, with the tools for BSP2 and the various sources for everything as well.

What's the average vis time for a full vis, on a RMQ map? :O

Dunno but mine took 13 hours and 30 minutes in the end :)  Louis's maps probably vis in much less time.

Mine are less than an hour on a dual core laptop, on a decent quad machine around 10-20 minutes.

It helps that I just add boxes together... although there is the the occasional:

The demo is uploading, and will most likely finish when I'm not here.

Look at my spot on ZOMG CENSORSHIP

And when its finished a remakequake_winter_2011.zip should appear...
