Obviously it wasn't misleading to you because you knew the extent of the source that was available. And hence "corrected" me. When I said the code was available I didn't say "all" of it now did I? You were *alledgedly* mislead because you read too much into what I said. The code for Quake 3 is available. The entire code will be available later. Does this stupid little argument excite you? Because I'm bored. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jacob Briggs" <jacob_briggs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <gameprogrammer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 24, 2005 5:54 PM Subject: [gameprogrammer] Re: game engine? > Yeah it was.
