dunno if that one contains the client side stuff. however, there will be a linux version (so someone said). question is: when?

I’m still wondering if there’ll be any chance of modding ET:QW from Linux… The editor is supposed to be Windows-only, (No matter if it’s a seperate binary file.) and GTKRadiant will probably need a lot to adapt to ET:QW’s World Editor.

BTW: Will there be a miscellaneous nickname for the editor? (Prey used Preditor.) “Tapir constructor” wouldn’t classify though.

Judging by SD’s amazingly creative and imaginative names for things such as MegaTexture and the “Stuff” System. We can be pretty sure the editor will be nicknamed “Quake Wars World Editor”

:wink:

Or howabout calling it the ETitor or even QWETitor?

Ahem. There’s a hope it’ll be “fairly prompt” (sorry malarky)
