i think it's about time i say this because it looks like electro isn't going to. Electro told me that he has stopped working on this project entirely and indefinitely, and he is working on other things instead. as for his reasons i will give him the chance to say what he wants maybe if everyone bugs him enough he will come back to this!! >:] because i can assure you he is 'around'

Understandable. It would not be very smart to invest so much work into a model if no-one could use it anyways.

purplehaze is right, I'm still around and yes, I've stopped working on the model indefinitely.
Spirit is also right

so lets remove all reasons for electro not to keep working, we can begin with adding md3 support for ezquake and further, maybe start a donation? send him food, or somehow provide for his family.. what can we help you with Electro? *shivvering in desperation

super: you're the one most on the right track here... rather than people being sad... the focus should be turned towards ezquake, as proper md3 AT A BARE MINIMUM is needed.

To get absolute best results, something like FTE would be needed (md5 mesh, skeletal animation, csqc controllable bones). This would allow for all previous demos made in the past to work with the new model, and it'd be fully animated properly (running while firing! *gasp*)

If it turns out being a single piece md3, then really it's just going to look weird having a next-gen model in a 90's animation system.

well, if you hadn't noticed there was a promise on your thread(might be on another one) cba to look it up right now. that support will be made if your model is completed.

I agree, ezquake would handle this well if it had fully working md3 support and csqc.

I would like to see a new player model, the 1996 model is a bit....old.

I'm sure once ezQuake has fixed md3 and has added csqc, it would then prompt Electro to finish in a heartbeat! plan of action, pester the ez dev into fixing md3 and adding csqc(I so would love to see running fire animation!)

I'll list the follow issues with md3 models on ezQuake as of now:

- they are completely fullbright.
- massive fps hits when that shouldn't happen.
- broken flags. example would be the pentagram not rotating.

this is all I gathered for now, engines like Qrack handle md3s flawlessly. I compared having md3 bmodels on ezQuake to having them on Qrack. there was no fps difference with the Qrack engine and ezQuake dropped the frames significantly.

Yeah that's right Trickle.
Someone on the ezq team took the incomplete md3 support that Spike added to FTE.

Also note that I said md5

ezQuake is open source and everyone is welcomed to contribute; currently we have someone working on CSQC support and we need much more help with that + md3

You guys realise that FTE is drastically different, and it'd actually be a huge job to "port" across the stuff from FTE to EZQ right?
