I just updated the Quake II Starter page to reflect the new link as well.  :beer:

It has come to my attention that for reasons as of yet unknown to me, finding a more up to date release of Q2PRO has become difficult since the loss of the original sites hosting it, so I have taken it upon myself to host the latest version I got from July last year, this is a very solid and recent release and what is recommended for playing on Whale, download from my Mediafire link below!

https://www.mediafire.com/file/y5hvqmnw7t49mul/q2pro-client_win64_x64.zip/file


Thanks to RailWolf for sharing, here's up to date builds of Q2PRO below! I leave the old mediafire link above nonetheless for now ^.

I have also found a flatpack of Q2PRO hosted for playing on Linux as well which has been great for me as I'm a recent adopter of playing and doing project work on Linux and can vouch it plays well on Whale! Is slightly older than the above link but just as good. If you really want to however, you can potentially play a Windows Q2PRO client on Linux (I recommend Linux Mint for playing Quake 2 on older computers) using Proton via Steam (Have not tested) or WINE.

Get Q2PRO for Linux here

https://flathub.org/en/apps/com.github.skullernet.q2pro

And lastly there's the Q2PRO client for use with the Remaster of Quake 2, ensure this is installed correctly with your remaster install. However I did encounter some bugs last I tested on Whale with display elements not working as of yet or other bugs, try this purely as an experiment.

And lastly as a personal update, quality of life work on Whale is still imminent despite tech losses and setbacks I've had delaying my efforts. I'm adjusting to a new OS and getting my new tools and workflow figured out and is looking good so far, look forward to seeing you all more regularly again!  :rockon: :rocketright: :rocketleft:

You should watch this one  :dohdohdoh:
(Rubber)

Looks pretty silly. Hell I watched Cocaine Bear. And yesterday I finally watched the Deathstalker remake. They don't make many "good" movies anymore, so I guess we gotta settle for silly now.

   

Yeah. Deathstalker. See, we all know [BTF]Deathstalker is just the greatest dude on earth, and that's obviously why they named the movie after him back in 1983. But [BTF]Deathstalker was so awesome that one movie named after him just wasn't enough, so they went and made a sequel named after him again, and this one was co-starring the lovely Monique Gabrielle. Both were great movies,... and both of Monique Gabrielle's boobs are great boobs. Sure, both movies were nothing Oscar worthy, but they were definitely worthy of cult status.



However, this remake...

I dunno. It's pretty goofy. The comic book nerdism gets a little oppressive at times. I see shades of Army of Darkness in it at times, same kind of gore, monster makeup and humor.

I suppose my verdict would be more on the positive side. I dislike the idea of resurrecting old cult franchises like this, but I suppose it did properly. What would be the alternative? A SERIOUS sword and sorcery movie? I don't think anyone WANTS one of those anymore. You have Game of Thrones or Vikings for things like that.

Anyway, yeah, worth a watch I suppose. Don't expect much though.

The ODS is strong in this one.

Obama trolled Trump and said something scientists have been saying for decades. Extraterrestrial life likely exists somewhere in the universe far from Earth. That doesn't mean they are here or that there is some super-secret tech project to use alien technology. I am now retired from supporting customers that build advanced technology aircraft and I can say with authority the tech they are presently using is very strange and wonderful but it isn't aliens. It's not aliens and never has been. It's just really smart people doing really smart things. Kelly Johnson and Ben Rich were genius level executives who hired very, very bold and talented people.

Trump took the bait and is now running with it and will probably make an effort to disclose something just to top Obama. Russia, China, North Korea and Iran will be taking notes. Trump is extremely insecure when it comes to comparisons of him with Obama.

They don't want you running around in Area 51 because there are some things that are sight-sensitive, where just seeing a thing will disclose the nature of the technology that they want to maintain as secret. They also don't want people getting into dangerous areas and getting hurt by operations. Security is layered. As for me, I believe in Darwin.

I dunno why everyone is jumping ahead of themselves on this completely random statement. It's not like we don't know how Trump operates. His purpose in saying anything was to troll both the lefty media and Obama. "He's disclosing classified info." By saying that,.... HE'S the one disclosing it. It's a silly jab at Obama, nothing more. He didn't admit aliens are real. He didn't deny it either... but "refusing to confirm or deny" something isn't some kind of reliable code to prove that something is true.

What SHOULD BE the real takeaway from this, no one is mentioning. The fact that Obama said "There are no underground bunkers at Area 51."



Yeah. That's why they have a fence a hundred miles around the place and if you come close to it, you'll be arrested by military police with heavy machine guns mounted to their trucks in less than 5 minutes.... because there's nothing there.

for a server that was originally created for dm1-dm8 only, to later having occasional "classic dm" custom maps, I'm curious as to how many people feel about a counter-strike map with all custom textures being in the mymap pool

Can we ban these bots in DM and other servers that just spam bad jokes non-stop? I tried to join earlier and it took me 15 minutes to get in because there were about 10 of them connected

I've been sick with Q2 since 2007. It's incurable.
Dying and reviving is common. It's a shame the QT was good.
