|
|
<P>On 30 August 1996, during a fit of unparalleled insanity, Id Software
|
|
released Quake to the world. Spawning two sequels and a nearly
|
|
uncountable number of imitations and clones, Quake was a product
|
|
that spawned an industry. Quake was the first game to include
|
|
fully-featured, real-time Internet play out of the box. Quake
|
|
is truly the father of modern online first-person gaming.
|
|
|
|
<P>What's more, Quake had the built-in ability for people to change
|
|
it. For the first time, you could not only create custom levels in
|
|
which to kill each other, but you could actually change the code
|
|
so you could kill each other in new and interesting ways.
|
|
<STRONG>:)</STRONG> Dozens, perhaps hundreds, of projects were
|
|
started to make entirely new games out of the Quake engine. Some
|
|
failed, others succeeded beyond their wildest dreams, but all of
|
|
them had fun trying.
|
|
|
|
<P>After three years of undisputed success, Id released the source
|
|
code to the Quake engine under the GNU General Public License.
|
|
This was the event that made QuakeForge and all of the other engine
|
|
modification projects possible. We all owe Id a debt of thanks, one
|
|
that many doubt can ever be completely paid. Thanks, guys.
