A Rant by Vektor
Begin Rant
I need a new computer. The Phantom Menace was crap. Austin Powers 2 was a
disappointment, but still kinda funny. It's cold in my office. I'm going to Qcon
and I think that all I'm gonna see are a bunch of skinny dorks with big glasses
that listen to South Park wavs all day. Speaking of South Park, it was actually
kinda funny last night. Go Figure. My Quake DM skills have gotten so bad that I
can't even beat a keyboard player with a 999 ping. For a while there I was
actually pretty good, but now I suck ass. Oh, and please keep sending me those
emails asking me how to do that 'really cool' flame effect in photoshop. Thank
you and good night. -vektor

We Love Our New Server
Begin Transmission.
Sources close to the NINvaderz were in a frenzy today when word was released
that the new Alien Invaderz Quake server would be online this afternoon. Little
did we know that when the server was brought online, most people in the gaming
community immediately stopped what they were doing to join in the official
launch party. Preliminary reports show that over 10,000 rabid Quake fans were
constantly refreshing GameSpy in order to get into this ultimate frag fest.
The server may be busy for months to come, but you are welcome to try and get in
and test your skill against some dudes who just play quake. Everyone else is
doing it, so why shouldn't you.
Oh, by the way, the server can be located at quake.i-55.com
or 204.27.97.250. Right now, the
server is running QuakeWorld and Quake2 Deathmatch. And, expect the first Quake
3 Arena server this corner of the world has seen to be up sometime tomorrow
morning.
End Transmission. -unleashed

Ninvaderz are registered for
Quakecon99 & Jilted, Expel, & Unleashed think Vektor is on Crack
Well, after 2 hours of laggy-ass crap,
the ninvaderz are officially registered for Quakecon99.
This should be a great LAN party. Nothing like getting to play quake3arena on a
LAN with 500 people at such an early time in the life of q3a (oh yeah, we'll be
playing lots of q1 also). YEP! that's right... we are starting to wonder what
vektor does in his free time. We knew he was creative but ummm I can't even come
up with the words for it. mkbye -jilted

Server Is Built! & Expel Gets Interviewed
Werd, unleashed got the server built in the fancy smancy black rack case that looks coolio. Now if we can get the bugs worked out it'll be online this week. Also, expel gets interviewed about his work on Dawn Of Darkness. If you haven't done it yet, go out and purchase the Windowlicker CD by Aphex Twin... it will expand your mind. -jilted
MARCH.21.1999
Still Waiting For The Server Case
Damn... the rack case was supposed to be here by friday... no such luck. One of these days it might actually get finished. At least after Tuesday I'll have Aphex Twin's Windowlicker to jam to until we get on track. -jilted
MARCH.20.1999
Sin CTF Beta 2 Released
Well if you haven't downloaded it yet, beta 2 of Sin CTF was released last night. Once again, you should try this out if you play Sin. mkbye -jilted
MARCH.18.1999
Sin CTF Kicks My Ass
I added a few more screenshots to the Sin CTF screenshots section as mentioned in the last update. I can't begin to say how cool it is. It's still in beta and its a pretty damn good mod. Mad shouts go out to RITUAL for a job well done. I can't believe that they tweaked the Q2 engine that much, I mean, Half-Life rocked ass, but some of these new levels are ultra top notch. So go download this and try it out losers. Oh by the way, have you seen the Southpark Star Wars trailer spoof? OMG its one of the funniest things I've seen since The Spirit Of Christmas (when southpark was still cool). Nothing new as far as the server goes... gonna build and install on Saturday as far as I know. werd... -jilted
MARCH.16.1999
Server Status and Sin CTF
All the hardware for the server is ready to go and Unleashed ordered the RACK case so it can go in the rack at i-55.com (werd). Me and Unleashed are gonna hook up saturday and get everything installed and get it up and running (assuming the case gets here by friday). If you wanna know when it goes online, email JiLTeD. Also, I downloaded the Sin CTF beta from Ritual and i must say its pretty frickin' cool. I especially liked running over people with the 4-wheelers while I was riding back to base with the flag on this one level. Here are a few screenshots i took. Anyway, go to ritual.com and download it and peep it out for yourself. -jilted
MARCH.13.1999
Site Update
The 'Levels' page is done. All of Expel's levels are on there, except for the classic 'Planet NIN' which is around somewhere. Anyway, grab all these levels cuze their sure to end up on the server. Finally change the Poll. I think the question is stupid enough to stay there for a while. Load times on these pages are long, i know - something i'm working on. A few new graphics on the clans page at Quake by Vektor. -vektor
MARCH.11.1999
The Alien Invaderz IRC Channel Is Now Online
Want to talk to the ninvaderz? Well then drop by our new IRC channel. It is hosted on the Gamenode.Net System. Point your IRC client to irc.gamenode.net port 6667 then join channel #clan_alieNINvaderz and see if we are around. Once the server is up and running will will prolly sit in there a good bit in between playing to talk shit to each other before playing again, hehehe. Especially after I own expel in a round on DM2. But to take up for expel, he could talk shit after he owns me in a round on DM6. OOOH I just thought of something... only 12 days till Aphex Twin's WINDOW LICKER is released. YEAH BABY -jilted
MARCH.10.1999
Jilted Orders The Frickin' Motherboard For The Quake Server
Yep, I finally ordered the motherboard after contemplation of what kinda of case we are gonna use. We need a rack case sooner or later to take advantage of the 100 megabit network at i-55 but for now we will just have to deal with 10 megabit (like that's so bad). Thanks to B.Real for giving the server a roof over its head until we slap the sucker in the rack. I want to thank everyone who donated either money or hardware for the server so a thanks page will go up very soon. This wouldn't have happened without support from these people. Any non-donators that wanna donate a few $$$ would be great though. Email me if you wanna contribute to our coolio local quake server. We could also use another hard drive, so the servers can each live on their own drive so when one is loading a map or something it wont lag out the other. Anyway, IP addresses, etc. will be posted as soon as I know them and I will email everyone that is on my server info list. If you wanna be on that list, click the email link that I just mentioned above. -jilted
MARCH.1.1999
The End Is In Sight, Finally
Me and the other level designers, along with our two leader type dudes, got interviewed at RUST. I speak my feeble mind. Well, not really. I just answer some questions about how DoD kicks ass and stuff. -expel
JANUARY.4.1999
DoD Gains Momentum
Hola. Expel here. Some recent exposure of Dawn Of Darkness has made me pretty frickin' excited. I'm doing level design for the project and have been with it all the way through the many number of revisions it has gone through, starting at Nightfall to Bloodlust to Roarke the Merciless and now to Dawn Of Darkness.
We've gotten a number of positive reviews on a number of websites, starting with AGN3d on Christmas Eve, a most righteous gift to receive, and today on BetaBites with a sweet headline on Blues News!
All I can say is, if the reviews for the demo level is getting this kind of excitement, you're going to be astonished when you see the full product. 12 full single player levels with, well, LOTS of deathmatch levels (we haven't decided on a number yet). :)
Man, I never thought this would happen.. I'm so impressed with the work everyone has done and how committed everyone is. Kicks ass. -expel
DECEMBER.20.1998
Site Update
Juiced up the front page a bit. Check out the poll at the bottom right. At the top right, I put links to our homepages with a date showing when they were last updated with new info. Any other site relevant to a NINvader will go there as well. Stuff in the works: The NINvaderz Quake skin pack and a levels page showing off Expel's skills. Server will be up soon. Saints game is about to come on, so that's all for now. -vektor
DECEMBER.15.1998
New Site Finally Up!
Well, it's here. After months of procrastination, the new alieNINvaderz Quake Site has arrived. I'll be adding the other sections to the site as they get done. Whenever the hell that will be. I still have a lot of crap to finish and tweak. Looking at this site, I see an HTML train wreck and already think it needs a redesign. sigh. -vektor
