I was wondering if there have been any updates or if I can get my hands on the source code. The only problem I have with the engine right now is the broken 3D UI elements.

Also can't do new builds right now since the compiler is fucky on my new PC. Here's a build from March: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ltfhguly45rpn ... 3.zip?dl=0 No documentation or anything so you'll need to poke around and figure it out yourself... source I'll provide soon as I get the chance. Oh, and the new player icons included are from some HD pack that I got somewhere... ModDB maybe? So credit to the author there, whoever it was.

Anyway, you can revert to the game directory with an asterisk... so you could do this: exec *logs/levelshot Not sure with the version above but by default it shouldn't use appdata. If it is, just add +set fs_useBaseHome 1 to the command line. The home folder is used to separate fnquake3 configs from the rest to avoid spamming up incompatible cvars between engine mods, and it allows you to store all your settings, demos and screenshots in one location... making it more convenient for backing up. There should be a fs_useHomeDir cvar to disable this though. Bots shouldn't crash the game but I know there's an engine-side issue at level change that I need to sort out... but that's why there's a beta tag! Edit: I think it's time for me to figure out this Github thing and upload the source.
