I tested having my mail client recieve a message while I'm playing, and then having my mail alert app pop up while playing. Neither one triggered the sticking. Neither did switching apps while playing (command-tab). Today it stuck twice while iTunes was the only other thing running. It didn't coincide with iTunes advancing to the next track. I can't see a pattern to it, but I would say it's a really insignificant problem.

Yeah, I eventually found out what this meant. But what a blunder to not attribute the quote on the sign!

It's too bad the Allegheny Bar Association didn't do a better job advertising that these appellations actually <a href="http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05113/493149.stm">mean something</a>. In short, these rankings were the result of an internal review of each candidate by a committee of twenty-four local lawyers.

The League of Women Voters did put together <a href="http://pa.lwv.org/pittsburgh/election/VGSpring2005.htm">some minimal information</a> on the candidates. Even so, I think the Bar Association's recommendations were the best voter guide to judicial candidates short of the judicial record itself.

im waiting for q4 to come out... our whole threewave team is switching over.

one thing i hope they put in is a storyline like doom3, but where it is also a multiplayer storyline. That it takes a team of 5 (maximum) to go though to beat it working together. Only at certain checkpoints can u get the dead guys back so it makes it much harder. U can't forget about the team vs team battles though. maybe something like Halo2 on xbox implementations where one team can be the bag guys and one can be the good guys. or just the normal all vs all q3 style shoot em up bang bang.

CENCERY DRONES!!!.. anyone staying within a certain area space should b shot repedidly untill they leave... damn campers I HATE EM.

i hope people respond to this on what they would like to see in q4, maybe they will view it and add some upgrades for online DLs. DONT FORGET TO KEEP THE 3Wave mod in q4 :)

Here is a cover page i have made:

Well, I get notified when there's a comment here, so it's easy for me to follow. ;)

Yeah, I still play Quake 3 from time to time. It really just has such a great feel. I really liked Q3F, but it seems nobody plays that any more...

SUP SUP damn this ting is STILL going?!!?!?!

i have beat every level (even nightmare) without doing dirty little tricks or using cheats.. its not that hard when you have been playing Threewave CTFS (multiplayer mod i suggest everyone gets) and hitting 40-60rail with a 30% lighting to boot. Once you learn to use all the weapons it is ez to beat him w/o even dieing. Just learn to stay around health/armor so when he rails u, you have time to get the health/armor b4 the next rail. Meanwhile you can get the rail shot u have been waiting for.. or hope he missed and ur full everything, just go in with a rail shot... miss or not then rox at his feet to pop him up... get a quick rail in and hes dead, that simple.

if you want to talk about anything msg me on AIM: OWEp1tome or mIRC: ETG #Vindication

damn Tom 7... uv been keeping track of this lol

I believe there's an outstanding request for demos of anybody killing xaero on nightmare without cheap tactics.

This site has links to some of the companies that make various products and everything I scanned came up even when it didn't in the other database.

nLogic: Huh, I've never noticed this in OSX. Is it perhaps because you're switching to another application (or another application pops up, like an instant message?) while the key is held? That seems to be a problem on Windows. (For instance, if you alt-tab out of the game.) Unfortunately, it's a bug in the graphics/IO library I'm using, so it will be harder for me to fix than if it were a bug in the game itself.

Stephan: It was a deliberate choice not to allow that, since I'm trying to minimize the amount of "hidden information" possible in levels. Sometimes you can force the player or a bot to push a block atop a panel as the level starts, if you want to achieve the same effect--but then at least the player sees it happen.

(You can, however, put broken bots on panels to start.)

I was thinking about the one-way floor (and drew some crummy graphics, as you saw), but it will actually be tricky to implement (not because of any interesting reason, just lack of foresight back in 1996 and then again in 2003). I'll probably make it eventually, but it's generally pretty easy to make one-way devices in Escape out of other tiles for now.

I'm using Escape on Mac OS 10.4.1. Every now and then, a key I press gets "stuck" and it behaves as though I was holding it down, even though I only pressed once. The repeating happens immediately, unlike when I intentionally hold down and there is a pause before repeating. The result, of course, is the little dude suddenly flying across the screen for no discernible reason.
It happens in all directions, so I don't think it is a keyboard problem. It is pretty rare, maybe once every 40 games. I don't think I seen in any programs other than Escape.

It would be nice if spheres and movable blocks could start life placed on a panel. The would allow for some deeper puzzles and potentially smaller levels. (Of course, this could also be abused by creating levels which were extremely difficult because the panels needed were 'hidden' under spheres or blocks.)

Also, are you planning on making 'one-way' floor? I see the light-green arrows in the lower center of tiles.png. This too could make for interesting puzzles.
