<Zaphod|> lotsa LOTSA goodies.... then you run around like a fool, and shoot 
   the big monster...
*** D_Nukem sets mode: +o GeorgB3DR
<Zaphod|> l8r Panther
<PantherX> Ok I'll stick around hi George
*** numb (~duke.3d@usr4-edi.cableinet.co.uk) has joined #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> hi guys....DN, you there??
<PantherX> Wake up DN
<|Rott|> lamers with ur stupid sounds
<PantherX> At least I am not named after ROTT
<D_Nukem> Hi George...
*** ZM (ZM@pm292-06.dialip.mich.net) has joined #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> Hmmm Hipnotic=ROTT, Not Duke 3D like they claim....
<GeorgB3DR> Hey DN:
*** ZM (ZM@pm292-06.dialip.mich.net) has left #duke3d
<Zaphod|> DN awakens...
<|Rott|> ROTT is a kewl game, it started mostly everything like capture the flag 
   for multi, quake would never have that
<GeorgB3DR> Funny how I worked on Duke Nukem 3D for 2.5 years and the only 
   "core" member from hipnotic that worked on it was Richard Gray.  THe other 4 
   did squat.
<PantherX> George, in SW will you be able to place mirrors on the floors or 
   cielings?
<D_Nukem> Got an e-mail from Scott McCabe and Paul S. in the past few days about 
  my Prey site :)
<GeorgB3DR> panther:  no
<GeorgB3DR> DN: your Prey site is cool....
<PantherX> Oh bummer
<GeorgB3DR> DN: Been following the misleading crap Hipnotic is saying about how 
   involved they were with Duke 3D?
<Zaphod|> George, in SW will two mirrors be ablle to "see" each other?
<PantherX> Can you do angled mirrors?  I'm sure they would work in Duke 3d, I'll 
   try that sometime.
<GeorgB3DR> zaphod:  no, be infinitly slow :)
<D_Nukem> George: "did squat", putting out a press release saying they are not 
  important? Doesn't sound to nice twords them.
*** DarkMind (~msgme@195.212.242.165) has joined #duke3d
<Zaphod|> yes, if the two mirrors faced directly AT each other, what about two 
   angled mirrors, such as a periscope?
<PantherX> Ok, I have no more pointless questions
<GeorgB3DR> DN: Huh? 4 / 5 members of Hipnotic did do squat for Duke.  They cam 
   out saying that they mad up part of the "core" team that made Duke 3D.  
   Bullshit.
<PantherX> I'm out y'all
*** PantherX has quit IRC ( 4°¨¨°º©[RáÞTûRÈ]©º°¨¨° 2 The end is like knee-high or 
something -|[Røbßrøwñ '97]|- )
<GeorgB3DR> I never saw them at all during our 15 hour days...
<D_Nukem> George: Oh...advertising guys and Prey guys...yeah, nothing to do with 
  Duke3D.
<GeorgB3DR> DN:  that's what they get when they try to cash in on Duke 3D, and 
   they didn't do any work on it.  nice has nothing to do with it.  Truth does
*** olle_ (flpbm@ipcs4-8.modem.umu.se) has joined #duke3d
<D_Nukem> George: Do you have the names of the two new 3D Model Artists?
*** MESTRE (bontempo@pppC4.elo.com.br) has joined #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> DN: Michael Wallin is one of them.  The other will be announced 
   tomorrow
<D_Nukem> Okay, have either of the two worked at other game compaines?
<Zaphod|> George: just a curiosity question... do you ever get sick of going on 
   IRC and being flooded with questions?
<GeorgB3DR> DN:  No, they are just awesome artists that worked in other fields.  
   Actually I think one did some contracting for a small game company.  Not sure
<|Rott|> D: u are ignoring all my msg's arent you? 
*** Hg (thayes@199.190.99.21) has joined #duke3d
<D_Nukem> Rott: Private messages? I guess so...let me check what is wrong.

*** Group(s) disabled
<|Rott|> i sent u atleast 7 %$%$^%$& msg's
*** Group(s) disabled
<GeorgB3DR> DN:  I just want everyone to know that Hipnotic is WAY over 
   inflating their contribution to Duke 3D.  Only Richard Gray did anything 
   sugnifigant and was a "core" team member.
<peters_> george: in your opinion, is shadow warrior a cooler game than blood?
<GeorgB3DR> Peters: Now, how can I answer that? :)  I think they will both be 
   cool...
*** myself has quit IRC (Leaving )
*** olle_ has quit IRC (Write error to olle_[ipcs4-8.modem.umu.se], closing link )
<peters_> george: well, I didn't expect you to answer anythin else :)
<D_Nukem> It's going to be, Shadow Warrior .vs Blood in the upcoming months.
*** Chronos (Chronos@206.228.215.74) has joined #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> Peters:  i can tell you that we think SW will be mega-cool like Duke 
   was.  Have you seen the Lo Wang interview yet on our site?
<GeorgB3DR> DN:  i hope so.  Nothing like a friendly competition :)
<GeorgB3DR> We'll see Blood in about 8 more days
<peters_> george: yea, didn't get real audio to work though

<NukeDukem> You are becoming a regular here ;)
<Viacom> WHAT!!
<Viacom> that was you?!!
<Viacom> they were playing duke3d on it!
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke:  Come here during lunch and dinner :)
<D_Nukem> George: Do you think Blood has an advantage being released before SW?
<NukeDukem> Gangreen , notepad is a good .con editor
<Viacom> what did they do bring the camreas ini?

<Viacom> george you were on tv!
<Viacom> man
<gangreen> if i knew how to edit the con
<SpencerDL> hello?
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke:  Also want people to know that Hipnotic is spreading 
   midleading info about Duke.  4 /5 Hipnotic guys did nothing to very little on 
   Duke.  Only Richard Gray did real work and was a "core" member
<peters_> just read that monolith was recording a voice for the main character 
   in blood
<NukeDukem> heh
<GeorgB3DR> Viacom:  Been on TV lotsa times.  It's a drag.  Bright, hot lights.  
   4 hours to do a 3 minute talk :)  
<NukeDukem> What has he been saying?
<Viacom> you have?>!1`

<GeorgB3DR> DN: I don't care when Blood comes out.  Advantage?  I'd say the best 
   game has the advantage.  Not when they come out
<Viacom> I saw you!
<Viacom> there were ppl doing network play
<D_Nukem> George: What other TV shows have you been on lately?
<NukeDukem> What show were you on?
*** Hg (thayes@199.190.99.21) has joined #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke:  The Hipnotic guys claim they were greatly responsible for 
   Duke's success and were part of the "core" team that made it.  Funny that in 
   2 years or 15 hour days, I only saw Richard working on the game
<Viacom> we dont have cable here but I saw you at my grandparents house..
<GeorgB3DR> DN:  None lately...past 6 months or so
<peters_> george: next duke 3d game, will it use the prey engine?
<Viacom> !
<ULTRA> any 1 got full version of Duke3d???
*** SpencerDL (spencerdl@hd06-239.compuserve.com) has left #duke3d
<NukeDukem> hah hah
*** ||BuRN|| is now known as |Rott|
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke:  Probably a Computer Man re-run.  I got the video.  We should 
   put it on the web or sumptin' :)
<Viacom> tool time!?
<GeorgB3DR> Peters:  Not talking about next Duke just yet :)
<Viacom> yeH!
<NukeDukem> ha
<Viacom> send it by mail over here
<GeorgB3DR> I think Duke needs to be on Beavis and Butthead./  Write MTV in 
   masses and demand it
<NukeDukem> So , Is it a good guess that Swarrior Full version won't be out till 
   May or June?
<Zaphod|> so George: you come herre during your dinner and lunch eh?  so when do 
   you eat?
<NukeDukem> Yeah
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke: Prolly...depends on shareware.  I think we need 6 weeks to do 
   full version after SW
<D_Nukem> George: Not talking? You've said a lot about the side scroller.
<NukeDukem> Hey Duke , don't Boughart the Nachoes dood!
*** spicegirl (user@141.163.201.20) has left #duke3d
<GeorgB3DR> zaphod:  when I get hungry and have the time.  Lunch at 3, dinner at 
   10pm or so
<Viacom> do you know tom hall?
*** ULTRA (wbrowning@ras-22.cinetwork.com) has left #duke3d
<NukeDukem> I just ate lunch
<Zaphod|> but you say you spend your lunch and dinner HERE, it's hard to eat and 
   type isn't it?
<GeorgB3DR> viacom:  Yes, Tom worked here 2 years or moree
*** SRley has quit IRC (Leaving )
<NukeDukem> he types quite fast too
<Viacom> !!
<GeorgB3DR> zaphod:  You get crud on the keys :)
<Viacom> but it said apogee?!
<peters_> george: read on the prey page about something called PT, what 
   advantages does that have over BSP? a very techniqual (sp?) question I guess
<Viacom> why was it saying the people from apogee?!!
<NukeDukem> hows Prey? Anything new?
<D_Nukem> George is from Apogee, co-owner.
<GeorgB3DR> viacom:  Apogee and 3D Realms are same company.  Different labels.  
   Like record companies under RCA or something
<Viacom> same!?!
<Viacom> btw 
<GeorgB3DR> peters: Means you can have a more dynamic environment, since you 
   don't need a static bsp setup
<Viacom> D_nukem violated a copy right!
<Zaphod|> I mean, why can't you just come in for a few laughs?  I don't see why 
   everyone has to ask so many questions...  I mean, come ON people give the 
   busy man a break!
<Viacom> he stole the apogee song for basic programing
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke:  Prey is coming great.  3Dfx is in and running with cool 
   features.  Expect new shots any day.
<D_Nukem> Stole? I wrote my own version!
<NukeDukem> Cool
<NukeDukem> I love 3dfx
<NukeDukem> How much does the Framerate increase over normal Prey with 3dfx?
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke:  We are about to hire 3-4 more people for Prey as it's gearing 
   up.  We can build, texture, light and run around a world now.
<Viacom> yeah right!
<NukeDukem> Cool
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke:  3Dfx gives you 25-35FPS at 640x480, with bi-linear etc.  We 
   still have to tweak frame rates, but it looks good.
<Zaphod|> I onlly WISH I could be one of those 3-4 people...  ;)
<NukeDukem> That rules
<Viacom> so if apogee it 3drealms
<NukeDukem> what was normal FPS?
<Viacom> who made quake?!
<Viacom> whos your competetor
<NukeDukem> Zaph , me too
<NukeDukem> But im 14
<GeorgB3DR> Nuke:  Prey will probably be hardware only.  We are going to skip a 
   generation of technology and throw out software renderer's.  You will 
   probably need a 3D accelerator like 3Dfx for Prey.
<NukeDukem> Like 3DFX REQUIRED??? Don't bother me ;)
*** Alkis has quit IRC (Game Over )
<numb> 3drealm dosent have a competetor
<GeorgB3DR> The result will be a much cooler looking game in high res.  
<D_Nukem> numb: Hehe, that's funny :)
