And here they are, my AUTOEXEC.CFG files for Quake/QuakeWorld and Quake 2! Read my Funky Names overview for details on how to include high ascii characters in your Quake name.

Quake/QuakeWorld

Get the sounds to go with the FAQ proxy.


// Q1 AUTOEXEC.CFG, Cloud-Warrior, Guns Islanders, http://weber.ucg.ie/quake/

// FAQ proxy and teamplay commands.
// Why have I defined these keys? Some explanations are given after the slashes.
// Three pent keys under each other (”Enemy has” = 0, “Going for” = p, “I have” = semicolon).
// Same goes for quad and eyes (except for “I have” which stays with semicolon).
// Issue this command when you’ve connected - proxy:soundtrigger z - for sounds.

Goodbye Zero

Well, as you’ve all probably read by now, one of the original Irish Quakers is tossing aside his rocket-filled backpack and crossing the lava-pits to Tir na Noquake. Yes, I’m talking about none other than [nD]Zero, formerly with the Fianna, GI and Incarnate. Ronan decided to call it a day with this shock announcement on quake.ie’s WWWBoard:

Posted by Zero on April 11, 1998 at 07:38:01:

Hi Lads, just a note to say I’m leaving Quake. I have lots of work to do these times and to be honest I’m a bit sick of it all. I’ve been playin for a year and a half solid and I don’t get half as much enjoyment out of the game anymore really. This isnt one of those bullshiit statements either, I won’t be back, and I’m withdrawing from QL 98. Sorry to any nD lads for this, but its not all THAT sudden. I haven’t played one tenth the quake I used to, I have projects up to my ears, and plenty of people are practising like mad and getting ninja good and I don’t feel like getting the hole whooped off me just because I am too lazy to stay in shape.

I will keep doing the news and stuff until I find a replacement, although I have someone more or less lined up for it. You’ll probably see me around for the odd kickaround too but not that much, and I’ll keep organising nD’s games and tactics etc. I won’t give a big boring list of thanx to ppl from the last year and a half, coz I’d be here all night. They know who they are at any rate.

So, I’ll be seeing you around.

[nD]Zero, Zero’s News.

(Ex- GI, INC)

Needless to say we are all sorry to see you go Ronan, I still thought you might do a “Gay Byrne” as Greenbean put it but having talked to you last night I realize you are really leaving us Here’s the last Quake interview where Zero talks to QameX. It was nice having you in both Guns Islanders and the quake.ie team, and we’ll be seeing you again soon no doubt. As they say in UL, g’luck!

Zero Archives, Replacement?

Missing your weekly dose of Zero? Catch up on what he’s said in the past in the Zero archives! As for who is going to take over from Zero, we are currently in negotiations with a suitable replacement so more on that shortly.

quake.ie Servers

Have had a number of requests for the latest list of quake.ie servers so here we go

QuakeWorld: ffa1, ctf1, war1, duel1, duel2, ra1, and ca1.quake.ie
Quake 2: q2ffa1, q2ctf1, q2war1, q2duel1, and ra1.quake.ie

I hope to change the arena server IPs to arena1/q2arena1 and arena2/q2arena2 shortly.

IQCL Nearly There

Some of the last IQCL games were played this weekend, I think Trinity are still missing in action and failed to show up for their latest games so more unhappy faces have been seen in the Incarnate camp (did I say camp and Incarnate in the same sentence, no insult intended folks :-).

All of Saturday’s games were walkovers, with Wu Tang and Alchemy failing to show at all. The nD vs. VtX game was declared a walkover when VtX admitted they would be unable to produce a team to match nD’s abilities! Today’s two actual results were Abat (148) vs. Phx (31), Darragh was shouting allegations of ping bombing during the game but it turned out to be their café that was causing the problem, and X-Com (85) vs. CS (45).

Statistics as per usual are at 1904-abph and 1904-csxc.

10 games left in the IQCL and here’s the situation so far.

Happy birthday to me! Updated my configs page with new keys for those using the FAQ proxy.
