Updated the outdated Info page with some invaluable links.

I'd like to dedicate this update to a friend who died of cancer in September of this year, Rich J. Sham.
I think many of us knew him through DOOM and his friendly, modest emails.  Rich was one of the few active players who recorded demos in the very early days of DOOM.
I didn't know him well, but I got the impression that he is the type of person for whom you hope there is an afterlife. 
For me, I will remember him as I have always known him, as a friend and a fellow, good-hearted marine.  Thanks, Rich for enhancing my life.

10/04/06 Most unfortunately, I recently let everyone down.  I'm deeply sorry.  It's clearly my fault and there is nothing I can do to undo it.
So much negativity recently towards me and the games.. and then this happens. 
So many rash promises sincerely made and their possible resolutions continue to fade.
I'm left with nothing to offer you except the promise I won't do it again... which leaves me with only one course of action.
Thank you all for the good times and amazing demos, I hope one day each of you can forgive me.


Here is all the demos for what would have been the next update:
(Wish I had known this before I had done 80% of the work for this update... shoot, even my frag movie is 3/4ths done(well, more like 2/3rds) oh well.)

download

I updated the linkspages a bit.
Heretic-N incoming
 

6/20/06 Big thanks to Angus for assistance recently towards an update.

No excuses, but as some of you know, my wife went crazy last year. (as in a mental health hospital for months as a bipolar schizophrenic.)
She is still deeply troubled and far from normal.  Needless to say, my life is completely upside-down.
Day to day things are difficult and trying... she fluctuates from waking me up to threaten my life to being so physically fragile and mentally troubled that I'm not sure she'll live another day.

In short, I know it's been forever, but an update will be eventually coming...

Quake4 was released.  Definitely better than Doom3, but I didn't buy it.  Looks like fun: a cross between UT2004 and Quake3... but how about making a game that is a cross between DOOM and Quake instead?  Sometimes the latest is not the greatest... but then WE knew that already didn't we. :)
