There is now a server up and running at viatel02.viatel.net


(207.96.122.33) on port 26100! Try it ASAP! You do not need to download


ANYTHING to play! Just load Quake and connect!



This is a server only version of the yet to be released P.A.I.N v1.10!



Find all the impulses at http://nachos.net/jwood/pain/



if you already have v1.01, the only new impulse is 25, which toggles


camera view, but there are MANY more changes.



As this is a bran new server, please bring a friend so you won't be


alone... Actually bring LOTS of friends! we need the help =)

and, just for fun, a random quote about P.A.I.N:



"Finally! A true masterpiece of a patch, and with no errors!! My friend


and I would like to thank you for all your time and effort you put in


designing this well planned add-on, and another major plus was that


there were no errors!!! A job well done, and I sure as hell hope people


are giving you the recognition you deserve ... I think iD should look at


what you've done and intergrate it into Quake 2. Grab your weapons, then


get your Class upgrades. 24 weapons makes more of an intense bloodbath


than 8! I wouldn't be surprised if the people at iD aren't sitting there


playing with their Logitech's saying, 'Hmmm. Why didn't we think of


that?' ... Thanks to the minds at iD Software we have a game that has


exploded onto the gaming scene with intensity. Thanks to you and your


ingenuity, we can now make an already impressive game into something


more extravagant! ... Oh yeah, and when iD Software hires you to work


with them, be sure and send me a midnight-blue Porsche." -cyko@juno.com
