<Spork> Wait...
<Spork> (dooh)
<GeorgB3DR> why?  the bugs that got out didn't show up here at all
<Spork> Nevermind
<[DC]QWAB> George: have you talked to Nick yet about Blood beta testers?
<GeorgB3DR> And the install bug wasn;t out fault.  It was the install people's
<MtlHead> Woah, Hiya George!
<GeorgB3DR> qwab:  Yes, they are taking prelim beta requests to get ready for testing.  
   it's cool
<GeorgB3DR> mtl:  test the 1.5 patch yet?
<Spork> Actually, your beta testers are fabulous.  Especially that Mike Duncan fellow

<[DC]QWAB> George: so a 486er doesnt have a good chance of getting picked?
<CyraxLurk> Picked for what?
<GeorgB3DR> qwab:  probably not.  
<MattCake> Evenin' George :)
<[DC]QWAB> that sucks i guess i forget about that
<Spork> Even running Duke on a 486 is a bit of a stretch...
<GeorgB3DR> hi matt...
<GeorgB3DR> 486's are dead for 3d games.
<CyraxLurk> i know, that was until my two year wait for my p166 was over. (last october)
<GeorgB3DR> dead, dead, dead....
<watcher_> clear
*** MtlHead has quit IRC ([RTR] ~Th nd igh t hd~ -|[Rbrw

<CyraxLurk> Picked for WHAT?
<Blackhand> hehehehe
<CyraxLurk> hhehe
<MattCake> My P90 is dead for 3d games :(
<CyraxLurk> :)
* CyraxLurk is running p166
<Spork> Matt: Not necessarily...(I hope not) 
<CyraxLurk> Perfect for DN3D at hi res
<CyraxLurk> :)
*** MtlHead (~mtlhead@ppp202.llv.com) has joined #duke3d
*** W sets mode: +o MtlHead
<GeorgB3DR> matt:  true.  Only P90 3d games that will run well, are those that support 
   acceleration
<MtlHead> Damn ISP;(
<[DC]QWAB> actualy i can play quake on my 486 and it is easier than on a pentium 
   because it slows down the whole action instead of what duke does it just drop frames
<Blackhand> Hahahah!
<Blackhand> So your having troubles to travis! ;)
<CyraxLurk> heh heh
<[DC]QWAB> George ok i feel bad enough you can stop the 486 bashing now
<MtlHead> Every once in awhile...;)
<CyraxLurk> anyways, Qwab, not good enough to be picked for WHAT?
<MattCake> george:My graphics card really sucks too :(
<watcher_> I dunno-my p75 runs quake quite well
<[DC]QWAB> my comp aint fast enought to be blood beta tester
<CyraxLurk> oh
<CyraxLurk> Where do we sign up?
<CyraxLurk> :)
*** UN|DOLey (~whyn@JFH124.rh.psu.edu) has joined #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> Everyone just get a 3dfx supported card and wait...patiently
<Blackhand> hahahaha ;)
<CyraxLurk> ;)
* UN|DOLey already ordered his
*** CyraxLurk is now known as _Cyrax_
<[DC]QWAB> i would get a 3dfx card but i couldnt put in my vl bus
<Blackhand> George you wanna gimme $198 for one? ;)
<Spork> What card would you reccomend, George?  What will 3DR be going with, any 
   word?
<_Cyrax_> Sporks tryin to get the inside scoop here...
<_Cyrax_> :)
<Spork> Why not? :)
<GeorgB3DR> spork:  I'm sure we will support the front runners like 3dfx (orchid 
   Righteous, Diamond Monster), and Rendition cards
<Spork> I'm ahead of the game <G>
*** me2 (~John@modem3.fairfieldi.com) has joined #duke3d
<_Cyrax_> exactly.
<Spork> Thanks George. 
<[DC]QWAB> George how long does it take joe to reply to a link request cause i sent it on 
   sunday and he aint reply, does that mean that i aint getting a link?
<_Cyrax_> Anyway, where do we sign up to beta test blood?
<[DC]QWAB> www.blood.com
<|Battery|> www.blood.com
<GeorgB3DR> qwab:  He might have blown it off, send again.  He might also be backed up 
   on email
<_Cyrax_> cool. brb
<GeorgB3DR> we spent all week doing v1.5 of the Plut PAK
<[DC]QWAB> ok cause i already got a link on www.blood.com so my site cant suck that bad
<_Cyrax_> yeah, that patch CAME out *FAST*
<[DC]QWAB> apogee@metronet.com right?
<GeorgB3DR> cyrax:  had too, major friggin memory overwrite bug causing all kinds of 
   hell.  It had to DIE
<Blackhand> Ive emailed apogee@metronet.com a few times and all times they came back
<_Cyrax_> monolith productions?
<_Cyrax_> hm....
<_Cyrax_> hehehe DIE BUGS DIE
<_Cyrax_> :)
<watcher_> I kinda wish you'd caught the bug BEFORE release
<Spork> 3DRealms rules, George.
<[DC]QWAB> monlith is making blood
<_Cyrax_> You guys transfer blood to a different development company or something? 
   who's monolith?
<Spork> :)
<_Cyrax_> oh
<[DC]QWAB> blood was always made by a diff company called Q studios 
<GeorgB3DR> watcher:  SH** happens ya know?  We never want bugs
<_Cyrax_> :/
*** jewel (user@207.135.224.76) has joined #Duke3D
<MattCake> george:how come the beta testers missed the memory error?
<[DC]QWAB> q studios merged with monolith
*** jewel (user@207.135.224.76) has left #Duke3D
<_Cyrax_> You didn't transfer SW did you..j/k
<_Cyrax_> OH... I see now!
<[DC]QWAB> matt: cause i aint a beta tester :)
<GeorgB3DR> matt:  it only shows up on few computers.  we still don't know why.  Just 
   that it got fixed.
<_Cyrax_> neat.
<Spork> It's impossible to catch every bug in a testing phase...
<[DC]QWAB> george duke is in c++ right?
<GeorgB3DR> Plain Watcom C
<MattCake> george:bet mine would've been one of those. My computer is the one in the 
   manual titled "If you're having problems running this game on your pooter" <G>
*** D_Nukem (~v4@ppp-pm01-dy-15.opr.oakland.edu) has joined #Duke3D

<Blackhand> no
<D_Nukem> Hello!
*** Blackhand sets mode: +o D_Nukem
<[DC]QWAB> hey d_nukem
<GeorgB3DR> qwab:  not at all
<MattCake> QWAB:the code will probably be in c== but graphics functions and mem 
   access will prolyy be asm
<GeorgB3DR> vastly different games...
<[DC]QWAB> d_nukem for your convineve i have the full log
<_Cyrax_> ok, i'm at blood.com, there are all these menus, none which are labeled, beta 
   testers here!
<_Cyrax_> hmmm....
<[DC]QWAB> geroge i meant blood and shadow in same language ;)
<GeorgB3DR> qwab:  Yes, Pretty much all Watcom C, C++
<_Cyrax_> DOH
<[DC]QWAB> cyrax in the main page
<_Cyrax_> ok dokey
* MattCake wants Watcom but can't afford it :(
<me2> bye
<watcher_> get djgpp
<Blackhand> George.. how are things going on SW?
* _Cyrax_ can't even afford PP at the moment so don't feel bad
<GeorgB3DR> compilers are rediculously priced these days.  It sucks.  Used to could buy 
   on for $100, now it's $300-$700
<[DC]QWAB> i am so proud that i make a circle using line statments in qbasic

<_Cyrax_> um.....QWAB: Don't see anything 'bout b. testing?
<GeorgB3DR> Jim nearly has the CD music code into Shadow Warrior.  Pretty cool too.  
* MtlHead is AWAY * Getting my daughter.... *
<[DC]QWAB> george: did u remember a while back someone asked you to make one of the 
   codes in shadow warrior with moo in it are u still doing this
*** MtlHead is now known as MtlHeAWAY
<_Cyrax_> John St. John was cool!
<GeorgB3DR> qwab:  No, the codes will come much later
*** D_Nukem sets mode: +o Spork
<MattCake> george:have you got rid of the pause caused by the CD changing tracks, or is 
   this unavoidable?
<GeorgB3DR> cyrax:  Yup, Jon, got voice actor of the year for Duke in the current PC 
   GAMES
*** Blackhand sets mode: -o D_Nukem
<_Cyrax_> there are always people who hack the c. codes before you guys release "the 
   official" list! :p

   the problem being fixed in the near future
<GeorgB3DR> qwab:  no, code names are the least of our worries now :)
<_Cyrax_> moo as in cows right?j/k
<[DC]QWAB> cows yep
<_Cyrax_> :)
*** Blackhand sets mode: +oo D_Nukem Spork

   can TIP them over.  Cool...
<_Cyrax_> Georg: Have you played the Dukebot by Alliance?
<GeorgB3DR> Um, I don't think so...
<_Cyrax_> hmmm...
* _Cyrax_ lightbulb here!
<_Cyrax_> :)
<Blackhand> It screws up single player! ;)
<[DC]QWAB> george are u doing flash bomb in SW?
<Spork> I'd like to see that, Georg
<GeorgB3DR> cyrax:  Early on I did... I'm sure it;s gotten better
<[DC]QWAB> cause i thought that would be cool
<GeorgB3DR> qwab:  Yes, and a smoke bomb.  not sure how they will work yet
<_Cyrax_> George: We're always asking you questions, do you have any questions for 
   us?(just a thought)
<GeorgB3DR> flash bomb will blind DM players for a moment.  In single play the guys will 
   wander around and shoot blindly or something

<MtlHead> Hiya George...the v1.5 patch works great:)
<Blackhand> Works Purrrfectly ;)
<GeorgB3DR> Whew...good...
<GeorgB3DR> Spread the word please :)
<Blackhand> hehehe ok ;)
*** Retrieving #duke3d channel info...
<GeorgB3DR> black:  so, the caching slowdown dissappeared?
<Patola> ok
<Patola> You can bet
<MtlHead> I still get an occaisonal hit on the hard drive, but the smartdrv 4000 smooths 
   that out
*** Blackhand changes topic to "Duke3d Pluto. Pak v1.5 works Purrrrfectly"
<GeorgB3DR> Mtl:  good, that's just because the new levels are more detailed...
<Patola> BTW, how can people sign up for being beta testers?
<MtlHead> Yup
<Blackhand> basically the same with me ;)
<GeorgB3DR> pat:  we're not accepting them now.  Plus you have to be in the usa
<GeorgB3DR> Bugs.....suck...
<Patola> oh
<Blackhand> Damn, always wanted to be a beta tester ;)
<Patola> And how can we get a preview, if we run a game magazine or a game page?
<Blackhand> Are you going to let the Blood Team pick their own testers? 
<GeorgB3DR> black:  some...They are accepting them now...for later
<MtlHead> George, are ya'll going to authorize any 3rd party expansion packs for 
   Duke3d...are there any in the works that you know of?

<Patola> ...and if you press forward, for example, the TWO dukes move forward.
<Egger> From the menu or command line Patola?

<MASH> some body here have duke 
<Patola> Mtlhead: yes, I know
<MASH> some body here have duke editor map???
<Egger> George might
<MtlHead> We all do Mash...the editor, called Build, is on the registered CD.
<MASH> MtlHead I Know... but I don't have this CD... I just want the Editor...
<MtlHead> Build is not freeware, and cannot be distributed over the net.
<Patola> hehe
<MtlHead> Mash, bad place to be saying this......
<MASH> Mtl Excuse !
<MASH> me
<Patola> Why does the patch is failing?
<MtlHead> Patola, the v1.5 patch?
<Blackhand> Maybe cause you have the cracked exe?
<Patola> I have modified the .CFG file...
<Patola> Yes
<Patola> No
<RobBrown> MASH:Why not buy it then?
<Patola> I've order it from the US
<Patola> I've ordered it from the US
<Egger> George, have you checked out the gamelords BDP (Big Duke Project)?
<Patola> From the Games Domain shopping link
<Blackhand> Some people COULD be playing duke right now, I wont mention any names, 
  but I'm curious why MtlHead can't play :-)
<MASH> Robbrown... I want to view them before buy !!!!!
<GeorgB3DR> egger:  Once...
<MtlHead> Duke is available in Shareware Mash.

<Patola> At least in Brazil, Duke is surely more played than Quake.
<Patola> Duncan: it's great.
<MtlHead> It's a blast Duncan:)
<RobBrown> Duncan:It's got some badass levels
<Duncan> I hear that there are duke bots.  Are there?
<Egger> How is the status of that PPak Patch George?
<MtlHead> I'd say it's the best episode out of them all.
<MtlHead> Yep
<RobBrown> You heard right Duncan. They are cool too
<MtlHead> Egger, it's out
<MtlHead> v1.5
<Duncan> Are they smart bots?  Do they work with user levels?
*** MASH (POPO@pm9-s15.colba.net) has left #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> egger:  it's out.  v1.5 os at www.3drealms.com now
<MtlHead> Duncan, fairly smart......you can figure them out eventually:)
<Patola> Mtlhead: agreed
<GeorgB3DR> the bots are 'aight. :)  We might add to them if there is a 1.6
* Blackhand slaps MtlHead around a bit with a large trout
* Blackhand slaps MtlHead around a bit with a large trout
* Blackhand slaps MtlHead around a bit with a large trout
* Blackhand slaps MtlHead around a bit with a large trout
* Blackhand slaps MtlHead around a bit with a large trout
<Duncan> I hope bots come with the initial releases of Blood and SW
<RobBrown> I'd bet on it Duncan
<Duncan> cool
<Blackhand> So George SW will support CD Audio?
<GeorgB3DR> Bots are already in Shadow Warrior.  Just added them 2 days ago.
<MtlHead> Cool:)
<Duncan> Coooool
<GeorgB3DR> Black:  Yes, shareware will be midi, full game will be CD music only
<Blackhand> cool ;)
<Duncan> Oh good.  No need to buy that new soundcard :)
<Egger> Ok George, I am downloaded the Patch, how much due I pay and it the site 
   secured?
<RobBrown> I read about the bots on the weekly update page as well
<GeorgB3DR> egger:  The Plutonium PAK has to be bought in a store, or through 
   800-3drealms.
<MtlHead> Need a level designed in Duke with more Beavis and Butthead stuff in it:)  
   Licensing nightmare I bet.....
<GeorgB3DR> The v1.5 bug fix patch is online for free
<Blackhand> MtlHead is just a OLD wanna be ;)
<RobBrown> BTW....The cheapest place to buy stuff is DIRECT!
<GeorgB3DR> mtl: Yup, I actually emailed Mike Judge a time or two about voice stuff, but 
   forget it.  Too much hassle
<Duncan> I can't wait for the B&B movie
<MtlHead> I fell out of my chair when i hit the drive thru sign in "Duke Burger":)
<GeorgB3DR> Me either.  I'm there dude.  
<MtlHead> he he
*** Frodo4 (dj@202.dallas-004.tx.dial-access.att.net) has joined #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> Mtl:  No doubt.  Imagine how much fun we had making the sample...
*** Frodo4 is now known as FrodoAway
<Blackhand> Look there is a Dead Cow in here ;)
* FrodoAway is using eIRC32 V.3a
<MtlHead> I liked the sound ya'll used for the microwave gun...straight from War of the 
   Worlds:)
-> [FrodoAway] VERSION
<GeorgB3DR> We wanted B&B to always be out of sight but a little ahead of Duke in the 
   level.  You'd hear "Cut it out fartknocker" as you rounded a corner etc.  Would have 
   been cool
<MtlHead> Yep, I'd have died on that one:-)
<GeorgB3DR> Mtl:  Yup, see the WOW reference on the crate on e4l1?  Where you get the 
   ammo
<MtlHead> Yep, saw that:)
*** warren has quit IRC (Leaving)
<Duncan> You will become one with the Borg
<RobBrown> So how are the voice talent interviews going? Is Blood goingto have a voiced 
   character?
<GeorgB3DR> rob:  Dunno about Blood.  likely not, but not decided yet
<GeorgB3DR> Shadow Warrior will have voice and we start recording in a week
<Duncan> The Blood guy should mumble and grumble
*** FrodoAway has quit IRC (Read error to FrodoAway[202.dallas-004.tx.dial-access.att.n

<RobBrown> So you have decided on a voice talent guy?
*** magicman (charris@dlp109.dayton.eri.net) has joined #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> rob:  Pretty much.  We have a guy, and if nobody better comes along, he 
   gets the job.  We will decide mid next week
<GeorgB3DR> Sounds like a cross between Pat Morita in Karate Kid and Mako...
<RobBrown> Wanna leak anything about what the voice guy may say or sound like yet? :)
*** magicman (charris@dlp109.dayton.eri.net) has left #duke3d
<RobBrown> ah..beat me to the punch George! :)
<Egger> get a gay voice guy :)
<MtlHead> Is the voice going to be straight forward American...or slightley diff?
<MtlHead> Whoops, ya just answered that:)
<Patola> hehe
<Egger> (not that theres anything wrong with that! Watching Seinfeld)
<GeorgB3DR> He will say...cool stuff :)
<RobBrown> Grasshopper...snatch the pebble from my hand.....
<Duncan> There can be only one
<GeorgB3DR> Do not your nads need kicking?
<RobBrown> You remember Kung-Fu the TV show MtlHead?
<MtlHead> Duncan is quoting from highlander now:)
<GeorgB3DR> More like "Grasshoppa" though :)
<MtlHead> Hell Rob...I grew up watching it:)
<RobBrown> yes..grasshoppa
<Egger> KUNG FU: I am not aware of times passage!
<RobBrown> MtlHead:Me too
<RobBrown> Davis Carridine would rule as Shadow Warrior huh?
<GeorgB3DR> so, give me some clever sayings for the guy.....keep em coming...
<RobBrown> David Carradine
<RobBrown> hummm
<MtlHead> Someone like Sho Kosugi would be best in my opinion:)
<GeorgB3DR> we'rea about to start watching mass movies like Jackie Chan and anything 
   oriental
<RobBrown> Damn....I should do the same
<MtlHead> George, then get the guy's movies I mentioned above:)
<Egger> Can you make his mouth move, wait a few seconds and then the sound comes?
<MtlHead> HAHA
<RobBrown> egger:hahhaha
<RobBrown> That would be funny as hell
<Duncan> It would look like lag though
<Egger> If he is a ninga, in all honesty, he should not say anything at all.
<RobBrown> Maybe some Godzilla movie stuff
*** Garrp (garyp@dlp2.spring.eri.net) has joined #duke3d
<MtlHead> That would be cool Rob!@
<GeorgB3DR> rob:  Read my mind... :)
<GeorgB3DR> You know we're going there :)
<MtlHead> Godziwa:)
<Duncan> You guys should put Xena and Hercules in the game somewhere.  Kinda like you 
   did with Indiana Jones.
<RobBrown> Godzilla is pretty well known too....It would go over well I think..
<MtlHead> Yep

<GeorgB3DR> duncan: maybe, but there are probably more appropriate things to put in
<Egger> George, can you elaborate on this vomiting head thing?
<Blackhand> to bad a little snip from id4 wouldnt fit in the game well
<Duncan> A little Mars Attacks alien would be cool
<Patola> George: the plutopak will be now be shipped as version 1.5 or will it remain as 
   1.4?
<GeorgB3DR> egger:  No big deal, just a little deathmatch thing.
<Blackhand> Mars Attacks sucks ;)
*** Necropedo (ptah@199.17.195.22) has joined #Duke3D
<Egger> Some Mortal Kombat characters/sayings would be a really nice feature for 
   Shadow Warrior.
<Blackhand> They tore down some of our town's histroy for that damn movie
<GeorgB3DR> egger:  If you die and become a head, you can press space, vomit and maybe 
   kill a guy.  Will be a neat 'little' thing
<GeorgB3DR> black:  really?  That sucks then
<RobBrown> Damn....I have the Godzilla song from Blue Oyster Cult going thru my head 
   now....
<Blackhand> hehehehe ;)
<GeorgB3DR> black:  Play plut pak for id4 stuff :)
<Garrp> hehe, vomit
<RobBrown> Ohh!! Good background music for Shadow Warrior George!
<GeorgB3DR> patola:  v1.4 until stock runs out and v1.5 is filtered in
<Blackhand> true ;)
<Blackhand> I think MtlHead is still trying to figure out what that movie destroyed here 
  in town ;)
<Patola> GeorgB3DR: k, thanx
<GeorgB3DR> rob:  on the list.  Also the "turning japanese" song and "kung fu fighting".  
   Been there. :)

<RobBrown> Atomic will be 1.5 correct?
<GeorgB3DR> rob:  Yes, from the start
<Blackhand> Lemme guess no capture the flag in SW?
* RobBrown must be lagging
<Garrp> Hmmm...judging from the topic I assume 1.5 has fixed a majority of the bugs, yes? 
   Install bug too?
<GeorgB3DR> black:  We want to, but I think team play is more important
<MtlHead> BH, you have your facts all screwed up..the movie monopolized on the fact that 
   the Landmark Hotel/Casino was being torn down....movie or no movie...it was coming 
   down.
<GeorgB3DR> garrp:  Yes, only one major bug that caused lots of nastiness.  You can 
   install your 1.4 cd with the v1.5 patch.
<Blackhand> Still ;)
<Blackhand> They took down our history for a damn PARKING LOT! ;)
<RobBrown> George:As usual...you guys are way ahead of us. :)
<GeorgB3DR> garrP;  You have problems ith 1.4?  If so, please let me know if 1.5 fixes 
   them
<RobBrown> That's why 3D Realms rules. :)
<Blackhand> You cant have both team play and ctf in the game?
<Patola> Yep
<Garrp> George: very glad to hear it. Thanx to all u guys for such a quick patch.
<RobBrown> Gaarp:Yes
<GeorgB3DR> rob:  not really, we've just been thinking about this game for a year :)
<MtlHead> Here Here...
<GeorgB3DR> Most cool ideas are immediately obvious
* MtlHead lofts a glass of whiskey:)
<RobBrown> Install and a cache bug that was causing memory probs
<GeorgB3DR> black:  Depends on timeframe.  Team is more important than flag
* RobBrown clangs glasses with MtlHead
<Blackhand> ok, I guess I have to settle with that, being your more important than I  ;)
<Patola> I assume the slowdown bug of duke was fixed, isn't it?
<GeorgB3DR> patola:  Yes
*** Canuck (Joe@van-as-09b06.direct.ca) has joined #duke3d

  kick your ASS!"

<Patola> I think I have to reinstall duke and plutopak for the patch to work... I'll do it 
   later.
<GeorgB3DR> black:  Rise, and stop kissin' ass. :)
<Egger> Hi Canuck!

<Blackhand> I liked the wanted picture of the una bomber ;)
