Quake / FreezeDT Freeze Tag Mod for Q3A
« on: March 29, 2014, 08:25:31 AM »
 :rocketright:  Anyone ever hear of or play a Q3A mod called "FreezeDT"/Freeze Tag?    :rocketleft:

It was Instagib all Railgun.  A guy that went by the name "Fodder" wrote the mod; it was one of the fastest hottest Q3 mods out, & the main website that introduced it was "Dayentech.net" owned & name after a really cool guy "John Dayen" who had a REALLY ill child & ended up have to let the site go & Focus everything on his family, after which Freeze tag vanished, at about which time I'd quit playing... 5+ years ago...
Any who, I'd really like to see this mod start back up, it was a blast!!!  Here's a short video of the mod >  Freeze Tag     :righteous:

Yeah I look back at me & my friends & wonder how we made it with only minor accidents, especially me, I went thru 5 motorcycles, wrecking the 1st 4, but selling the 5th before I killed myself, lol.

I think everyone in my family has wrecked the mustang, me, my mom, & both sister's, never serious, just little fender benders.   My Mom, lol, the house down in New Orleans has an "S" shaped driveway, on a corner lot,  like 2 cars wide, 75' long... it's "S" shape because it has to go around a fire-hydrant, lol   Lets just say my stepfather has had the rear-end on several cars fixed, & was the only time I'd ever seen him actually cry, lol.   He ended up spending like $3500 to have the city move the hydrant like 50' to the left , into the front yard & had the driveway straightened, lol.   Lets just say, those scene's in the movie where someone drive's over a fire-hydrant..... bullsh!t, those are some tough sumbitches!

I can remember the day My Stepfather pulled up in a red 1970 Ford Mustang convertible,  it was the last convertible Mustang put out during the muscle car era.   I was eight years old then, & I've watched him drive, tow & ship this car thru 9 different states for the last 40 yrs, turning down offers for more than it was worth.  All while threatening to restore it for the last 10 or 15 yrs; but something always came up that demanded his time &/or money over it.  Then he ended up dying  before he got around to it.... it's like part of the family & now I've got it & my son & I are going to try & start on it this summer & do as much our self as we can.  I found a good place online where I can get everything, all the body parts I need + new roof & a few other things will run me about $2000 & I think we'll just drop a Ford racing 347/302 Boss in it.  I figure by the time we're done we'll have about 14k into it, & according to Nadaguide it should retail around $40k.   So we're going to take our time & do it right/all out!

I'm figuring on a deep blood red (similar to blood starting to dry) with silver ghost stripes, outlined w/gold pin stripes down the hood & trunk.  A design you don't notice from afar, a classy silent muscle!  Also want to swap out & use the hood snorkel & grill off the fast back

That's... pretty fuckin' cool actually, hehe. I'm surprised San Fransisco would close everything to allow someone to do that on public streets. Then again... they let Steve McQueen do it. But how the hell do you say no to Steve McQueen in the 70's? Dude was a fuckin' rock star.

But I'm somewhat skeptical that was done all in one take. At around the 4:40 mark, looks kinda like the left rear wheel is sticking out farther than it should be, like maybe he broke something in that previous jump and the CV axle came apart or something else. You can clearly some kinda clip or bracket or something coming out from under the rear just before that big jump when he short-hopped it over the little makeshift bridge coming off that barge in the port.

Then again, I kinda notice the same thing with the left rear as he's rounding that hairpin to the finish line. Maybe it's just the color of the rims on the rear giving the illusion that it's hanging out. Or maybe the rear wheels actually do adjust out during cornering for added stability and control. Never heard of cars doing that though. Dunno.

About the only tires you can use for tricks with that kinda precise close clearance to obstacles is those little thin rim-hugger fuckers, because normal tires will roll over on the sidewalls pushing that hard sideways. So if by chance he DID do all that in one take, I'm pretty impressed with how the tires held up getting that unbelievably hot without exploding or ripping clean through them.

I agree, he may of used more than one take for this video because of unforeseen problems; you can definitely see tire marks from previous/practice runs so...   it's just that they did a great job editing it & giving the viewer the best perception of experiencing this ride with him.

Ok, I breezed thru everything but didn't see it in here so if I missed it I apologize... 

These guys did a great job editing this & it has to be about the funnest "balls to the wall race car video"
"balls to the wall race car video"  that I've seen, even if it is a commercial;  this guy's going all out, I like how they entertain or taunting the rush hour drivers during the final credits.  So for those that haven't see it, enjoy.

alright, that is bullshit...that isn't where Rocky came from..

try again

 :sorry:  I apologize, you are correct Sir, the story outline was based on Wepner's experience.  So that was an extremely miss-guided assumption on my part.  I do hope you can forgive my miserable existence for assuming such from the mere fact the name "Rocky" & style/heart of the "character" Sylvester Stallone portrayed was inspired by Rocky Marciano.  >   Rocky   :notworthy:

Ps.  Please feel free to send me the cleaning bill for your boots!  :thumbsup:

Wow, we're talking about two completely different classes of fighters; Rocky was a brawler with a jaw made of iron, a heart normally reserved for Knighthood & one of the hardest puncher's of all time.  Ali was a Boxer, with cunning, grace & speed.  Rocky Marciano by the way, was Sylvester Stallone's main inspiration for his Rocky character, as well as Ali, was the main inspiration for "Apollo Creed."   So it's kind of ironic you chose these two for your poll, cuz' obviously it was the similar question Sylvester Stallone had, when he was inspired to write the book/screen play for "Rocky" the movie.   With that said, IMO, if Ali was to try & slug it out with Rocky, Ali would get knocked out.  But, Rocky didn't have the grace & speed that Ali had, & if Ali was to just play it smart & stay away & keep dancing in & out, stick & jab, then Ali would win with the score cards!  (both fighter's in their prime of'course)  Ali was a smart fighter, just like he knew he couldn't slug it out with George Foreman & Foreman was a little too fast to keep dancing around & running from, so Ali did his "rope a dope" until Foreman was tired, then Ali went in for the kill.  But Ali way out graced Marciano & could easily dance in & out, hit & run & win with points!

lol, sorry about the thread hijack  :erhmmm:   As far as the smell, it's been almost a year since I quit, but when I catch just the right whiff of someone's cigg, & it hits me like walking into someone's kitchen while their baking cookies;  the only unpleasant odor I've come across is old over stuffed ashtrays.

As far as taste, tar & wasting half a cigg goes... How about trying a Vapor Genie I had one, it will eliminate the tar & waste issue & the taste.. WOW, tobacco is amazing out of it, pure flavor;  there is a learning curve using it & it's main downfall is, it eats lighters.
