VWep - Viewable Weapons Patch for Quake 2 v3.14 / CTF1.02 Screenshots

God, life sucks.

              Hey. The following is a personal rant from the author. If you don't want to hear it, just scroll down.

              I have recently discovered a fundamental truth of existance: Unless they're DAMNED lucky, Coders can't have Real Lives. The same twists and turns of grey matter that allow a coder to fundamentally grok a coredump, also preclude him from grokking those subtle social signals that allow people to form connections and bonds to other people. I guess I'm just restating the obvious; they don't call us "nerds" or "computer geeks" for nothing. But still, it's somewhat disheartening to realize that in giving up coding to go out and experience the "real world", one loses both.

              That having been said, there's another fundamental truth, albeit a more localized one: Bakersfield doesn't pay CRAP for programmers. I make $9.15/hr at my current job (at 40 hours/week, that's about $1500/month before taxes). I quit my old job making $1050/mo salary, because it wasn't worth putting up with the crap I regularly dealt with. I'm a computer programmer, damnit. I have 5 years of professional experience in C/C++. I'm 24 years old. I'm SUPPOSED to be making $30k/year by now, aren't I?

              Furthermore, being single in Bakersfield sucks. I swear, there's something in the water that makes everyone stupid, violent and intolerant. If I don't get out of here soon, I'm going to go fucking apeshit. Arizona is SUCH a nice place... if I ever save up a few thousand dollars, I'm moving.

              That's it. Rant's over. Sorry to bother you good people.

              Who is the VWep team?

                      Actually, there *IS* no team. It's just me, Hentai.

                      Who is this Hentai guy, anyway?

                              Hentai's personal homepage is relocating, as I have moved on from Intelegenesis.

                              So how do I get ahold of him?

                                      Physical: My real name is Brent Dill and I live in Bakersfield, CA. I'm NOT going to give out any more information than that, but if you're a reasonably cool person, I'm liable to be making some road trips in the near future. This town has no nightlife, so I've got to do something besides Quake to alleviate the mindless boredom before my carpal tunnel damage gets any worse.
