r_speeds is super outdated now that any computer can run Quake, but I still find 'em fun. Maybe I'll play this level on a Windows 98 PC.

For non-Quake nerds: wpolys are world polygons. ~400 polys is base game amounts of detail. Over 1,000 gets you rendering errors in DOSQuake.

Checked in Mark V WinQuake--surprisingly good r_speeds! Even worst case scenario, just under 500 wpolys. Guess I can add more detail, huh?

Ironwail's custom renderer broke the r_speeds command, so I'm genuinely curious how many wpolys this level is pushing. Gotta be a lot.

@Vixen80 I mean, you get pretty annoying sometimes. If you're cool with that, then no.

Mailing packages is fun! I had to fill out a customs form and everything for one of them. Another thing taken care of before the trip!

@Cramble I turned that shit off day one, very happy I did. I like the toast notifications but I don't need the constant sounds.

http://somnol.net/o/blips/l… God, Quake mapping is so satisfying. Currently recreating a favorite little HL2DM map of mine.

It's the same reason I stopped using target="_blank", outside of specific circumstances. It's up to you where a link opens up, not me.

@flash As a viewer, that sounds highly annoying and controlling as to how I browse your content, but that's your prerogative I guess.

@flash Kyle Drake doesn't fix shit. He's too busy wearing sailor uniforms for Twitter selfies and buying craft beer from my register.

@flash Even with my dozens of followers back then, I'd still max out at nine likes an update. Back then! The numbers are totally cooked.

@flash But Neocities traffic is completely fake. gh2-deluxe supposedly had 250k views, but there was only 30k on the YouTube trailer for it.
