Quakes 10th anniversary is closing in and over at QuakeDev people are discussing of holding Qexpo this year and break the 2 year "break" tradition.


I myself have a great idea and Im currently working on it, though its only for europeans :cry:

What do you want to contribute to your favorite game the past 10 years?

A little bump for QExpo news if it wasnt known over here already, QExpo 2006 will take place July 17th till 27th, with the 22nd being the central date as it is the 10th anniversary of the release of registered Quake. It is more than likely going to be hosted by Echon at Quakedev.com and I will be the master of ceremonies. SantaClaws will be doing the php once again, to make the booth system operate even more smoothly.

I hope to see more players attend this years expo, and people playing Quake in celebration of what has made Quake great these 10 years, and all the releases and previews at QExpo to continue to make it the greatest game for the next 10 years! A celebration of our consistently swelling potential as a community, rife with creativity, competition, and plenty of gibbing.

the next quake retexture pack will be released on july 22nd, 2006 in tribute to quake's 10th year.

\o/ quake retexturing project! \o/

Last year, as far as I could tell, few players were aware of or participated in Quake Expo (Trinca had a booth about waypoints, I can't remember any other non-developer). I know no one ever told me about QuakeExpo, I stumbled in on it at QuakeDev, which I only discovered due to the Quake Retexturing Project's site being hosted there.

Doesn't have to be a mod or engine. Quake movies, Quake cartoons, drawings, etc. Any other Quake creations.

The one and only true Quake WILL be heard from this July.

Baker5 i think must be something u worked hard to our favorit game.... something like bots, maps, clients, movies e.t.c.

Maybe they'll be some clarification on what is/is not QExpo material. I thought I read that somewhere, though.

Groovy!

QExpo booth registration has now gone public, anyone who wants a booth at the expo may create it now at http://www.quakeexpo.com ! QExpo2006 starts Monday, July 17th.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Look for texture release!

Wooooooot!

so what can the qw community do to participate (beside giving the maps and mods another chance)?

run regular qw matches and competitions! maybe also on custom maps/mods that are usually not played often.
i would really like to see some qw at qexpo, too.

I'm gonna release my qw mod thats been in development for 3 years now, i just hope i can remember how to code qc
