I guess I'm trying to be cool like +<a href="http://www.linuxbrit.co.uk/">Tom Gilbert</a> and update my +page more than <a href="http://www.gladstone.uoregon.edu/~timfinch/"> +Tim Finch</a> (sorry Tim -- you knew it was coming :P). I finally +updated the <a href="projects/">Projects</a> page; check it out for +some more recent projects I've been involved in, and some more +Linux- and UNIX-related scripts and programs. +<br /><br /> + +I decided to set up +a temporary <a href="http://www.quake3arena.com">Quake 3 Arena Demo</a> +server on my home computer. Id software does a checksum comparison +on the PK3 file before loading the demo server, so I couldn't modify +any of the bots or levels, but I did hack together some interesting +demo server modifications with some shell-trickery and a quick Perl +script. Essentially, Quad Damage does _no_ damage (because quad is +for losers), getting armor temporarily doubles gravity or changes the +knock-back on certain weapons, and getting mega-health halves +gravity (which wreaks havoc when you're playing Q3DM17).

I don't have a place to stay yet, but travel +and financing seems to be covered. My first LWE -- exciting! + |
