The Epic strikes back:
Silicon Knights wants to take Epic's Licensed Technology, pay nothing for it, and use it any way it pleases," the counter-motion reads. "Having exploited Epic's intellectual property to its advantage, Silicon Knights now seeks to renege on its payment obligations under the License Agreement. It is Silicon Knights, not Epic, that has engaged in deceit, infringement of Epic's intellectual property rights, breach of contract, and unfair business practices
The question is - what happens when you take a crap in the urinal - instawin? 
I think somebody will have to try this out. For science! :science:
Gotta agree with Defrag, I just wish you would release more final versions so there would be something to put in the spotlight galery 
“The Piss-Screen - a pressure-sensitive inlay set within urinals, enabling users to play while they pee. We installed this newfangled creation in male restrooms across Frankfurt, teaming up with a variety of bars, clubs and cafés. The game itself was displayed on a screen above each urinal, and would automatically start as soon as someone began to pee. The player could then control the car whilst relieving himself – if they wanted the car to go right, they simply peed to the right (and visa versa).”
I think I know the bar in the video, might give it a try at the weekend.. 
Getting there! Now add more dirt decals
One minor thing - the lights cast on the ground are...greenish? 
its jesus weeping for the pain and suffering in our world
MOMS is Mr. Oizo - M-Seq (great album!)
I confused our lord and savior with an astronaut.
Fuck, no heaven for me 
Peris: Is that a crying astronaut as your desktop background? MOMS.rar? 
I think the radius of the lights that shine on the curved walls next to the tracks is still too big, looks wrong, but overall much better 
Quote from HourencesI agree with Rick, too many colors. The very ugly yellowish greenish color of the floor and some walls isnt helping either. You should pick a number of texture and lighting colors that would fit the theme and stick to them.Geometry is cool.
Yes - also too many lights, every surface is lit and glows, even the ceiling which is "above" the lamps. I think some more gloomy areas would make it look better.
Who unlocked this?

If you had read the thread you would have found out yourself
We have to be happy for every sunny day here in Western europe this summer 
People from southern europe might have a slightly different story..
I think someone needs a hug!
Voted for Quakis - putting a big eye on a hammer is as absurd as brilliant
Quote from Rick_Dthat's not particularly new or anything tho..
...but a big advantage over its competitors such as UE3 and CE2...
I think it hasn't been mentioned before that the engine runs on all platforms, without any modifications and adaptions. They do changes, compile their code and it runs on PC as well as on PS3.
That's a huge bonus.
Quote from Bl1tzIf you look past the fact that their sales have gone steadily down over time and that they are developing Rage without a publisher...
I don't think development without a publisher is such a terrible thing if you have the means. There are a few really successful companies who can do it (like Pandemic for example)
Oh snap - I didn't know Dallas can be so frosty
I agree with Bl1tz that this is not necessarily a bad sign, it might as well show that they got the funds to take the time to find the right business partner to publish the game, instead of winding up in a deal they might not be happy with later on in development (intellectual property and marketing money are two buzzwords that come to my mind).
EDIT: Come on KFS, don't leave us hanging here!
Quote from e-freaksucks.Seriously. The editor looks like Battlecraft 42 with "Ultra-New-Next-Gen-Shader" and placing Prefabs everythere. Look at the part there Carmack places those stones and bones. It seems it is all texture and seriously - even Half-Life 1 had modelled gibs and didn't need parallax-shaders for a single stone.
On the other hand I like the idea of painting alot on one surface with different "texture"-Brushes and then have it rendered down to one database but I'm not sure if it works. At the moment it is just "Put a 4096² Plane with plain rock and Decal it to death". And his statement about it would be so easy to create good looking maps with it is the most dumb thing I can think of. Ofcourse you can work easy and fast with it but you don't come around doing good work with photoshop before.
..but at least you don't have to worry about blowing your texture memory budget
After being somewhat left behind by UE3 and well, CE2 I guess as well, it seems ID finally heard the wake up call and managed to take the leap from engines that are optimized for interiors to something that supports large, detailed, open environments.
As Carmack said - they have also adjusted their company structure to nowadays standards, with a bigger staff and invest a fair share of their time and resources to make the technology attractive to licensees and easier to work with for their own artists and designers.
I'm not sure if this is THE BIG leap, but I am sure ID is on consumers as well competitors radar again.
Also interesting: Web browser based Quake, ID games on Steam and no publishing deal for "Rage" has been signed yet.

Can't believe nobody created a thread for this yet 
Looks like ID is in da biz again.
