Out of the Blue

I expect today and tomorrow to be the last couple of days of disrupted coverage here. Thanks again for your patience. In the meantime, I came across some photos from the QuakeWorld Release Party on September 19, 1996, so I posted them to our Facebook page. There aren't that many of them (ten to be precise), as this was so long ago they were shot on, what do you call it again? Oh yeah, film!

The other thing I remember was how surprised I ws to see *HOW* American played.

Yes, the monitor was huge, but he shrunk the view down to a 4x3 inch square, and killed all detail on the Mip maps in order to make the models stick out. He also had the trigger rigged to the spacepar such that "it won't fuck up my shot."

Guy had more ink on his arms than the pen section at Staples. Real cool guy, though. Probably why I jump down throats here when people trash his latest efforts.

In photo 5, starting with american: DR|Tokay, DR|Moebius, DR|^Drag0n^ (bald guy behind Tokay's head); DR|Invictus.

Wow. what a blast. I forgot Blue was on UA before DR.

^D^

Thanks Dragon & LittleMe

And yes John Carmack is nothing short of a genius. The word is so over used these days
An actual genius.
