Just dropping in to say hi. Haven't been here in a while, but it's nice to see that this place is still running. How is everyone?

I used to play the first quake on my neighbour's computer so much that he gave me his disc, and saved up for quake 2 when I saw it at the local computer store. Unfortunately I didn't have the internet at home so I missed out on the multiplayer revolution and the mod scene, and my interest waned.
Early last year I accidentally unearthed the discs and, while trying to figure out how to install them on my laptop stumbled across the darkplaces engine, started playing a few mods and was surprised by the depth and variation.
Lately I've grown tired of complaining about bad games and decided to learn how to make my own, and this seemed like the best place to start. I'm more of an artist than a coder, so I'll probably be filling the forum with all sorts of questions and requests for help

Hello Fellow Quake Modders
by blubswillrule » Tue Oct 05, 2010 3:21 am
hello all! My name is Luis Gutierrez, I go as blubswillrule or blubs on the net though, I'm 15, and I have been making anything game related for about 5 years now
although I have very little experience with QC, I do have experience with game logic in general, I have made lots of blender games and gamemaker games before.
I am personally more graphics based, I make textures, models, sounds, music, maps, and even animations, but am really making a constant effort to add coding to that list, and I know the only way I will achieve that is with trial and error.
I started quake modding not too long ago, I was really interested in this Nazi Zombies:Portable mod, I knew about how to make games, but honestly, [confession] I didn't have much of a clue about what quake was [/confession]
but now, I am fairly knowledgeable about quake, but FAR from knowing everything.
well, anyways, it's a pleasure to be here among all these talented individuals who take quake to the heart, and I look forward to sharing Ideas with the rest of the community!
p.s., when making my account, I misspelled my name as "blubwillrule" trying to spell "blubswillrule" XD
edit---
name fixed, thanks @scar3crow!

A truly rewarding experience for an AI coder: watching your ai navigate the map... makes all the time invested in the code worth it

Welcome blubs, I took the liberty of correcting your name for you, if you would like me to change it back, just let me know!
Awesome on your discovering Quake, it may look a bit aged, but if you look closer, you will see there are great reasons it has survived, and is among the greats of games.

...and all around me was the chaos of battle and the reek of running blood.... and for the first time in my life I knew true happiness.
