TTimo Leaves id Software

[obsidian]

id Software's programmer Timothee "TTimo" Besset leaves the company after over a decade of service. TTimo has been instrumental in developing the level editing tools and supporting the mod community as well as making Linux ports to id Software titles. His latest work with id Software was with Quake Live.

Best of luck on future endeavours. It'll be hard for id Software to find someone to fill your shoes.

Onwards!

I didn't realize it had been so long since my last post here. In a way I was waiting for something worth writing about, and that was a long time coming.

I resigned from id earlier this week. Folks who know me well were not terribly surprised, but I suppose I need to put that out there officially. I joined a small startup in Dallas, gaming related, but not fps or esports. Great people, great tech, and we're going to have a blast.

To 2012, wishing everyone a great year!

Aye, (assuming he ever reads here) best of luck for the future TTimo. Hope the new company does fantastically well

Best of luck in your future endeavors, TTimo. And thanks for your service to the Quake and id Software communities.

I'm not sure how long Lunaran has been working on this, seems like he makes a post in the screenshots thread a couple of times a year, but it's finally finished. It's a massively ambitious project that utilizes a lot of custom scripting to generate geometry and lighting.
