September 23rd, 2000PBC ReturnsFrom the depths of idleness, Paintball Central arises once again to provide us all with news for our favorite mods. Now that paintball is spreading beyond Quake and Quake2, there's a lot to talk about. Check it out here for more info. August 8th, 2000Stupid Internet Explorer...Well, I did write some nice little news update about the new map I was working on, but apparently it somehow got lost in the process of posting it. I hit back in order to post again... and, well, the fields were all blank! Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. That's the last time I try to update with IE. While I'm on the subject, anyone know why the "Have a Pic for DP? Send it in!" thing under the potd is on the left in IE? And more importantly, why is it split into two lines? It works correctly in Netscape (centered in one line). Heh, a better question: does anybody know that link exists? :) I know I just get flooded with POTD emails - about 3 a year (not that I actually get around to updating any more often than that anyway...).
Anyway. Back to the original point of the post. I'm finally getting around to making another map. With only un poco de los ratos libres left, I decided I'd better do something productive before college started. Midnight2 should be coming out in the next few days (I hope - at least for beta testing). For an idea of what it's like: Imagine the original Midnight. Ok, now imagine it looking a whole lot cooler with strategically placed barrels and water and stuff. Now imagine it inverted. Woo, trippy :) For those with weak imaginations, you can just look at the POTD for today. The map is subject to change with or without notice. It is also subject not to change much. It is also the subject of this news post. I think I'll stop subjecting you to my torturous puns. :)
Stupid IE. July 28th, 2000Coldfire's SiteColdfire has put together a site where you can download skins and maps and all kinds of stuff like that. Check it out here. July 25th, 2000ToesWhat would a whale do with toes? July 3rd, 2000Paintball II is W2K CompatibleFor those who wondered, Digital Paint Paintball II works quite well on Windows 2000. I purchased a new hard drive and after a few days "%#&^*#^@#$&@%& why isn't this working?!" I finally got Win2k installed and functioning properly (of course it only took like 3 clicks to install on my parents' computer... figures... my computer is always difficult). Unfortunately somewhere in the process I had moved my Quake2 folder over to the new drive temporarily to free up some space to do something on another drive... then forgot about it when I reformatted the new drive (It was on a partition in a format I couldn't read at the time and I thought nothing was on it) ... oops. Anyway. Long story short. The .map files and stuff were in that dir, so if there was anyone who wanted the sources to my maps, well, you can't have them.
