Optionals

    Jul.30.1999.5:00pm CST - Gigolo - "A Whole Gaggle of News"

   Action Half-Life was released yesterday, hope you got it by now. I got in early and enjoyed a nice 5k a second off my 56k modem. As you may have read at the Action main page the Guild will be housing everything for AHL that it did for AQ2, so send those gunskins, sounds, configs and all that jazz to me. The entire Actors Guild needs to be redone to accomodate AHL, but until that happens we have to cram the content in the current format somehow. Well, enough about AHL, let's get onto the submissions.

My new favorite Englishman is Bloodlust, and he sends in another weapons pak. There's just no stopping this guy. He put in the readme that he doesn't want people taking credit for his work, by just editing his skins and then submitting them. MeSSerSmitt sends in some sniper crosshairs that were inspired by ones used in WW2. Let's end with a rare submission, an icon pak. Ryan Corey sends us one based on the HUD systems used in military aircraft.

Oh, yeah, Others section is up and running. So if you have any "Other" material that you think the rest of the community should have, SEND IT IN. Don't know what "Other" material is? GO LOOK!!!! Cail is back in town, so is Pietro. It was good to see them again.

    Jul.27.1999.2:30am CST - Gigolo - "Welcome Spawn!!"

   I just can't seem to whoop that CGF arse as well as I would like. And on top of it, it makes my q2 crash like a 16 year old girl driving a Dodge Viper (sorry to my female audience). Anyways, I got a lot of skins for you optionals followers. My man, your man, and the leader of my clan SpedDmn hits us hard with 4 (yes, 2+2) optionals. This is unheard of as far as I know. 2 handcannon skins, 1 with black handle and chrome barrel and the other with a wood handle and darker silver barrel. 1 tactical shotgun and 1 sniper crosshair. He is just the man, and if he hadn't already won the SPOTU I would give it to him. Well, enough brown-nosing, I also a really good sound pak from Kiribati. It takes the good from some previous pak's and he also adds his own personal sounds to it, making it one of the best weapon and misc sound pak's I have tried. Almost forgot, Silencer also submitted a handcannon with the wood finish on it, very nice. It's funny, I was just thinking the other day that we needed more handcannon skins, and wala you guys come through.

I might be getting some web help from Spawn, who has already done a lot of site work for us. He is gonna try to get the others section up and running, so look for that soon. He also updated the sounds page for me.

Was wrapping up the update and I got an email from Bloodlust. He asked me if I knew a program that converted mdl file to a md2. I think MeDdLe does it, but not sure. If anyone knows, please email me the program name. Thanks! And remember, 7-29-99 is the day!! Quit my job, fucking Fiesta Texas. I hate that place, it's slave labor. NEVER work there, other Six Flags theme parks might be better, but this one is a damn concentration camp.

    Jul.23.1999.11:30pm CST - Gigolo - "And on the Seventh Day...."

   Ok, so I took a week off from the Guild, so sue me. I had to work a lot, and had errands to run and whatnot. And Dungeon Keeper 2 RULES!! Anyways, as you would expect, you get quite a few optionals in 7 days, so here they come. BRACE YO SELF! aEk.Eagle sent in a skin for the Ruger Hawk sniper pistol. One of my optionals helpers,Vienese, sent in a MP5 skin that he has been working on for a while. =GP=MAMASBOY sent in a Sniper Rifle skin. And Mr. KUK sends in a silver M4 skin with black handels and clip.

Other files upped include 2 more crosshairs from D.O.A. and a sound pak from DeathDeala. Now onto the Shameless Plug of the Update. This updates award goes to Mr.Optionals himself, Bloodlust. He asked for me to plug his clansite, so here it is. He sent me files this update, but I can't post them yet, need to wait on the others section to be fully operational. About the Others page, please continue sending in "other" things even though they aren't being posted yet, they will get their time.

I would like to thank everyone out there for not sending me any config files in the past few days. I hate writing the "Please refer to the submit files page about submitting configs, and how I won't post them anymore." For all of you CFG makers out there, I will be posting AHL configs, so get to work on those as soon as it is released. There are going to be plenty of things to bind, trust me :) Gotta ready the site for AHL, 6 more days. Gonna be a bitch. Oh, my first clan match went well, we won!

    Jul.16.1999.2:00am CST - Gigolo - "I'm the Abba Zabba Kabazaba Kabam!"

   Where to begin, maybe with some optionals! Ok, we got lots O stuff for ya. I think this is a first, we have 2 (yes, 1+1, very good) sound paks for ya to test out. [AMC]Inspecta sent in a weapon and misc. sound pak. The headshot is disgusting, I like it. The other was sent in by S. Kleye and they are for the male and female models. Very cool! Next up we have weapon skins, and like usual Bloodlust has outdone himself and sent in a great selection of weapons. It has a new skin for each weapon in AQ2 (except for the cannon) and a new bullethole. Mr KUK also sent in a very cool M4 skin. D.O.A. sent in some more animated crosshairs, and one of my optionals helpers, alexandr, sent in some crosshairs. Thanks for all the submissions. No "SPOTU" for this update, because people don't return emails!! I guess they don't want a shameless plug on a website with 250000+ hits. Oh well, less work for me. Over and out. Dungeon Keeper 2 kicks ass. If you liked the original, this one is a lot better. If you never played the original, then, well, poo on you.

    Jul.12.1999.4:00pm CST - Gigolo - "The Site Work Continues."

   Yes, another update. These are fun. I took down all the nav button. They took up a few K per page, so it should improve load time. They also are redundant, use the frame to navigate. I also got a submission, some animated crosshairs from D.O.A. I already plugged enough people today, so no more for now. Sorry it took so long to get the update from earlier finished. My FTP program got mad at me and wouldn't upload anything. It's up now though, so go download stuff. Oh, anyone really hate those CGF bots also? Is it just me or do they ALWAYS know where you are. I jumped off a building and one of them shot me in mid air. Another time I jumped over a sniper and he shot me in mid air. And that damned Sabotage guy just shoots me in the head. I rush him and Gigolo dies. Oh well, I took him out with the sniper rifle. Anyways, enough rambling. Oh, I got a question for all of yall out there. I am trying to make the site look better (took down nav buttons, etc.) and I need an opinion. Which optionals graphic is better? The on on top of this page, or the lighter one with the crosshairs on all the other pages. Email me with your preference. I know which one I like, but if a lot of people like the lighter one I might keep it. That's all for now. Expect the others page soon. I am on hold right now, trying to schedule my senior pictures. Been on hold for like 20 minutes. This sucks. CRANK THE LIMP!!!

    Jul.12.1999.3:15am CST - Gigolo - "MAKE THE VOICES STOP!!"

   Submissions submissions submissions. We got x-hairs galore, gunskins and all sorts o stuff. I've also tried my hand at HL skinning, and it reminded me why I stopped Quake skinning, CAUSE I AM HORRIBLE AT IT. But I can make the terror model yellow :) Ok, enough about my lack of skillz, on to what you are here for, the good ol optionals.

Gunskins go first, cause they are just better, so NYAH! We got some tiger guns by ZIckBOne. He made a Shotgun and a Sniper Rifle skin, with a tiger theme(got ahold of some bad acid eh?). And my favorite optional just got better, Kramed sent me an updated version of his gold akimbo pistols. Kramed is the man! I am gonna plug his little site really quick.Action World. What more do I got in my bag O optionals? -UR- Jack in the Box sent me a sniper crosshair and Canus sent me a skull-like laser dot. Check those out, NOW!!!!

Ok, as if the plug for Action World wasn't shameless enough, here we go for the OFFICIAL "Shameless Plug of the Update" and it goes to one of my optionals crew guys, SpedDmn(11). Well SpedDmn is a greedy little bugger, so he wanted 2 sites plugged. Well I am in a St. Nic-like mood, so he gets his wish, only after sitting on my lap. That's a good boy. SpedDmn did the Submisions page, and he is gonna do some other work for me, so here are his plugs.Thalken Designs and Clan 11's homepage. That's it, go download optionals and go play some AQ2. Have fun, drink, and be merry! Schizophrenic updates are fun, they keep ya on yer toes! And at 3 in the morning they come naturally.

    Jul.10.1999.10:00pm CST - Gigolo - "My How You've Grown"

   Not that much submitted in the past few days, but a lot of other things going on. The optionals site is growing. Thanks to ol Suislide (AKA ACTION GOD) I have a lot of work to do. I have to format a page to hold everything that is now currently supported. This is gonna be tough, but it will rock when it's done. The Others page is back, but different. It used to hold gunskins and weapon models, but now it is going to hold "other(TM)" things. All Action related of course. Any help with this new section would be much appreciated.

Now on the subject of help, I am gonna give a shout out to my Optionals crew. I am going to start a "Shameless Plug of the Update" award to people who make my life a little easier, or harder. Now that sounds weird, so let me explain. To win, you can either help me out by doing site work, or submit some KICK @$$ $h1+. Unforgiven Spawn recently emailed me about helping me out, and I took him up on his offer. He did a lot of screenshots, making the "Gunskins" page pretty much complete. He gets the first ever "Shameless Plug of the Week" award. Now for Spawns shameless plug.CYTAnet Quake2 Players Page.

Now yes, I did get a few submissions, and here they are. [VfN]HaKA sent in some regular crosshairs and MadMan sent in a smiley face laser sight. Damn you people are sick. Well, that be it for now. Oh, I updated the demos section, check it out.

I might hold a Weapon Model contest, to go along with the Player Model contest held by the A-Team. This is still in the works, and just really an idea of mine, so email me if you would like to help in anyway. That's all for now. The Action Summer Camp might close down. That sucks. If you can help em out email McGruff at [email protected] .

    Jul.05.1999.11:00pm CST - Gigolo - "Your Second Dose of the Day"

    Wooooo, bring on the optionals. No BS, let's jump right in. First up we have a laser sight based on the predator series, done by Blackman, probably the busiest optioanls guy. The second is a slanted crosshair from He@d-RipPeR. Then there is a crosshair that is "Used for shootin dork�s in da head", according to its author, sCiEnCe. Our final crosshair is for your sniper rifle. Xenian brings us some sniper x-hairs inspired by "Saving Private Ryan". Now onto the gun skins. Bloodlust decided to bomb my email box with skins, so how can I complain :) He sends in 2 mp5 skins, each with a different fire theme. He also sent in a fire sniper rifle. GermanFF sent in a camo mp5 skin. And that pesky Blackman sent in a "Sniper's Sniper skin" as he calls it. And last, and the largest file I recieved, it s sound pak from KwazyDog.

Now time for 2 rants. First is on the Optionals page holding Config Files. I have no problem keeping em up, they might help some people. But let's face it, just about every combo has been tried. I will probably not be posting any new config files. For those of you that can't think up original config ideas, there will be a fix for that shortly. I can't quite tell you what it is yet, but when we get it we will let you know :)

My second rant is on submitting ANYTHING from other games, mods, programs, anything. I mean sounds, models, skins, anything. Only original work will be posted from here on out. Now there might be a few exceptions, but email me if you are unsure. The big thing is models.

Ok, let's recap. Do not submit configs unless they are amazing. Do not submit anything from other mods. Do submit original work. Now some site news. I might start a custom pak section. Some people have sent in their custom paks with their sounds, skins etc. Now these are really large normally, so I am kind of against it, but we will see. I am also really close to starting work on the new sounds page, which is going to be really useful. That's it for now!! The HTML is talking to me, too much, must unplug, AHHHH!!

    Jul.05.1999.4:00pm CST - Gigolo - "What Virus?"

    Thanks to everyone who sent in directions on how to beat that pesky ska virus. Since I got so many emails while I was away (56), I am going to do two posts. One of the mad props, and one for the optionals. So here we go with the mad props. They are in the order that their emails were recieved. MANY THANKS GO OUT TO: The Unforgiven Spawn, Canus, Frag_Daddy, Blackman, KwazyDog, [-ZeUs0-], Psycho[11], evilcthul, T3rror, sinx, Frost, EvolGrande, Spawn, Duke, InvisiBill, archr5, and DaG]NARF[. That almost reads like the thank you list from a .nfo file. If you don't now what those are, don't worry about it. Anyways, I got like 20 optionals, so I will work on that update late into the night. I am only working 3 days a week now, so more time for webpages!! Thanks again everyone. Oh, and look for that optionals update later on today or tomorrow. Almost forgot, those of you who want my first born child, send a SASE to me, and I will send my kid ASAP. I will even cover the S&H fees, ain't I a nice guy? God I love the AQ2 community. You guys rule!!

    Jun.30.1999.2:00am CST - Gigolo - "Virus's Suck"

    Ok, here is the deal. Someone submitted an optionals (not gonna say who) and attached was a file called Happy99.exe . This was a virus I soon found out that does mean sh*t. It attaches itself to all the emails I send for one. So DO NOT expect a reply from me until this is fixed. Also do not expect any major updates till this is fixed. If anyone can help me fix this PLEASE EMAIL ME. I will give you mad props all over the page, send you my first born child, ANYTHING. That is all for now, thanks for listening. If anyone reading this makes virus's, stop, it's very childish.

    Jun.28.1999.2:30am CST - Gigolo - "Lot's O Crosshairs"

    Thanks to everyone who sent in a fix for my whack @$$ config problem with the inverted mouse. It was the "-.0222" thing, thanks for the help!! Now onto the optionals. The big news is an animated crosshair. It is the first for Quake 2 I believe, and it comes to us from Weird 1. It is really cool, so download it NOW! Hmmmm, what else do I have for ya? How about a sniper crosshair based one from Judge Dredd, sent in by Blackman. There is also a sniper crosshair sent in by [R7]ZappaH that has a really nice look to it. Our final crosshair comes from Pimpitron, who sends in a crosshair pak, with 3 crosshairs and 1 sniper crosshair. One of the crosshairs is an akimbo specific crosshair, so check that one out. Now don't worry, I got more for ya. Mr. Postal sent in a m16 skin that doesn't have the bright bullets. And lastly, and leastly :), Mamas Boy shares his autoexec and team configs with us.

Now for another little rant. When people send in gunskins, please include a pic. If you want the specs and everthing that I use, please email me. It takes me quite a bit of time to take pics of skins, then cut and paste em together, and it would just be easier if the author would do that for me. With that said, KEEP SENDIN IN THE SKINS!! I am gonna start helpin the demos page, so expect some changes there also :)

    Jun.25.1999.1:45am CST - Gigolo - "THE Sound Pak!!"

    You people never seem to amaze me. Today as I was checkin the old email box, I noticed that someone sent me a HUGE file. Well it turned out to be a 5 meg sound pak, with custom sounds for each player model. Yep, you heard me, sounds for the Messiah, ActionRally, we got em all baby. A big thanks to Massive Bitch for that submission. Oh, forgot his disclaimer:"*NOTE: Some sounds not suitable for children.*" One more note, he didn't make all the sounds, he used some from places, but it still rocks. Get that over at the soon to be redone sounds page. Ok, what else did we get. Bloodlust sent me his personal pak file, and I will post it once we get the optionals "others" page done. That is going to house "Other" things, like the AQ2 winamp skin and player pak files. Well, I will keep this update shorter than the last 2, so thats all for 2nite. Uh, one more thing. Big Fat Ando has an idea for a Res Dog movie for AQ2. Nothing is set yet, but if you want to star, help out, whatever, then give me an email. Ablee Ablee Ablee that's all folks. Please, no more 5 meg files in my email box. AHHHHHHHH!!

    Jun.23.1999.12:00am CST - Gigolo - "AHL Gunskin News"

    How can I even try to match yesterdays update, well I will try. I recieved a sniper crosshair from Alexander. It fixes a previous crosshair that he made a few months ago, go check it out. I also got a demo that was "made just for me" from Big Fat Ando. It's kind of creepy, you will have to watch the demo. It is called Headshot. I wonder if it is a death threat. It's small, and a cool idea, well, if it isn't a death threat and all. And finally, I talked to Suislide about gun skins in AHL, and things don't look good. For some oddball reason (is oddball 1 word or 2?) Valve decided to do models like Quake1. The skin is embedded in the model. So for each gunskin you will have to download the whole model. There are obvious benefits and drawbacks to this, so we will have to live with it. If you want more info on this email me. One last tidbit, it has come to my attention that Muz's m16 was actually an m60. It is just a misnomer on his part. Well, that's all for now. Oh, one more thing, GO SPURS! Damn, AHL skin submissions are going to kill my email box. Oh well, by then I should have cable modem.

    Jun.22.1999.7:00pm CST - Gigolo - "M16 Fix and MORE!!"

    Lots of goodies today kiddies. First up we got Blackman submitting two new skins. The first is a bloody knife skin, and the second is a cool akimbo skin. Really can't describe it, so check it out. Next up is Frost who has sent us a crosshair that aids in knife throwing! I am interested in seeing if this helps anyone, so if you use it and love it, gimme an email. [KGB]_Kaya also submits 3 crosshairs that are more visible. Now for the 2 biggies. Bloodlust sends in a glock pistol modified from the Terror Quake mod. It even comes with a custom icon. I would really like to see an akimbo model for this glock. And finally.....[-ZeUs0-] has fixed the M16 model that muz submitted a while back. It is really good. New sounds and some great skinning make it a must have.

Thanks to everyone that has offered to help out. I think I have enough people, but if you really think that you can help out, then by all means send me an email. I am looking for some really good HTML guys to help me redo the sounds page. It needs it, and I got some idears in this ol noggin of mine.

Before I end this post, I have a plee for help. Somewhere in my config it makes my mouse inverted. It is a pain to have to go through the options menu everytime I play AQ2. If someone knows the console command to make my mouse NOT INVERTED, then please tell me, thanks. Thats all for now. If you get a chance to see Matrix at the IMAX, GO!! It was amazing.

    Jun.19.1999.2:00am CST - Gigolo - "Back For More"

    I got some good news, and a rant. First, The Saint sends us a really kick ass knife model. It has a new attack animation, and it looks really good. There is also a new sniper config sent in by Dave Huppertz.

Now for the rant. I love to check my email and see new model submissions. What really gets me mad is when someone sends in a model that doesn't work. The most common fault is in the skinning. I only have a 46.6 kbps connection, so it takes a while to download 3 megs of email. I would appreciate it if you would TEST your skins before sending them in. This would save me a lot of time in email checking, and in testing.

With that said, we will hopefully have eXXon's Anaconda Sniper Pistol and a Swedish AK5 from Ladida pretty soon. Here is a teaser from eXXon. Thanks to those who have written to me and expressed interest in helping with the guild. We need a few more, so if you are interested, gimme a buzz.That's all folks. Hectic week. Got 13 hours of sleep in 4 days. Hammer is back!!

    Jun.13.1999.12:45am CST - Gigolo - "They just keep rollin in"

    One more skin for Cloud's Ruger Sniper Pistol, this one is from Navy Seal. He fixed some of the errors in the original skin from Cloud and it looks really good, so check it out at the gunskins page. I also took Desop's crosshair that was recently submitted and added labels for the sights(2x, 4x, 6x) and you can download them if you like. I use em and they work really well, thanks again Desop. Welp, thats all until I get back. That sucks that Rogue Warrior is leaving the guild. We need more people to work on it. WE NEED A FEW GOOD MEN (or women).

    Jun.11.1999.2:30pm CST - Gigolo - "Skins Skins and more Skins"

    Wow, more news than you can shake a stick at. First off, eXXon has found the problem with his sniper replacement model and is fixing it. Second, SpedDmn[11] has come through with 2 skins for Cloud's sniper pistol and 1 for the grenade. Third, Desop-KUI- sends us a KISS simple sniper rifle crosshair. And finally, Oyvind Neshaug has submitted an AQ2 winamp skin. On a personal note, I am going to be out of town for a week, I am leaving for UT Austin on Sunday and getting back on Thursday, so please don't expect a reply email from me until then. UT is gonna kick ass, I love Austin. When is Unorthodox gonna update?

    Jun.05.1999.2:30am CST - Gigolo - "More Updates"

    Sorry to all of you who downloaded the anaconda.zip file and realized that it wasn't finished yet, eXXon is working on a fix. I also added some more pics to the gunskins page. Oh, the FTP got moved back, so all of the mirrors should be working. And finally, Unorthodox is back, so hopefully this place can get moving again. GO SPURS GO!!!!

    May.31.1999.1:10am CST - Gigolo - "Updates Have Arrived (well sorta)!"

    Well things have been moving slow around here for a while, so if you have been hording any of your work send it in. I figured there needed to be a link to the gunskins and replacement models in the optionals section, so there they are. I added some more pics today, including the anaconda sniper pistol. That's all for now. Hmmm... I really like that Britney Spears banner that is above the main page. She is smiling at me, I swear.

    May.21.1999.7:39pm CST - Hammer[TECH] - "Updates coming soon!"

   OK, we have someone (Gigolo) working the others section to make it look like the rest of the site, and not like a news page. This should be up relitavely soon. In addition, if things go well, we should start having new additions to the pages, such as both sniper rifle replacements and all of the gunskins and such that you fine folks have been sending in.
   I apologize for the delay, and assure you that we are still alive.

    Apr.10.1999.8:00pm CST - Dardenator - "Others Section!"

   We've got some new gunskins up in the others section so head on over there! There is also some new news on a new Magnum model with a scope that will replace the SSG Sniper Rifle. Keep on sending your stuff in. Also send in any ideas you might have for us partaining to the guild of course. Bye!

    Apr.01.1999.2:30pm EST - Unorthodox - "April Fools Day!"

   We got submissions for a fire sniper rifle, another camouflaged shotgun, and an assortment of items from Bloodlust - not to mention my own .pak file that I've been building, you know what to do!

    Mar.30.1999.11:30am EST - Unorthodox - "Some more gunskins"

   Hey everybody, I know it's been pretty quiet in this neck of the woods for a while, but we've gotten a trickle of submissions come in to the Other section - I've also gotten all your emails suggesting the renaming of the "other" section to something more appropriate, as it only really seems to cover gunskins - well, there's a little more to it than just that, but we're taking it all under consideration and I'm not totally opposed to it, rather, I think it's a pretty good idea! Anyhow, head on over and take a gander!

    Mar.14.1999.12:30pm EST - Dardenator - "New E-mail Addy!"

   I got a new e-mail address its [email protected]. So from now on please submit your files to that address instead of my old one. I got some stuff done on the Icons & Fonts section as well as the Sounds section so go on over there and check out whats new. Please keep the submissions rolling in! The more you guys send in the more will get posted here so get busy and send some more stuff! Right now we are really in need of some Icons & Fonts so make some and send em in if you can. Thanks.

    Mar.14.1999.12:30pm EST - Unorthodox - "Gunskins"

   Whoo whee do I ever love these gunskins! If you do too, head on over to the other section to check out two new knife skins, two mp5 skins, a skin for the new Uzi model and a bunch more!

    Mar.8.1999.08:30pm EST - Dardenator - "Update"

   I updated the Crosshairs section (anotherwords I added 3 new sniper crosshairs). There will be more regular crosshairs added shortly. Currently, there is someone working on an animated crosshair which should be very interesting! It would run it's animation when you shoot. I think this will be a big hit. There are some new sounds and icons & fonts I have recieved from people as well, I just have to find the time to post em. Until next time, Keep sending in all of your cool looking crosshairs and especially get to work on some real cool sounds or icons cause thats where we're lacking the most.

    Mar.8.1999.08:30pm EST - Dardenator - "Submissions"

   From now on please send all of your submissions regarding Crosshairs, Icons & Fonts, Sounds, and Configs to me. Do not send Gunskins to me because Unorthodox is still taking care of that. As soon as i get some good submissions from you people then i will start updating everything, so get to work and make us some great stuff to post!

    Mar.8.1999.08:30pm EST - Unorthodox - "Interview and gunskins"

   As usual we have lots of activity over in the other section, pop on over to check out an interview with Dachande as well as his latest gunskin releases!

    Mar.3.1999.08:30pm EST - Unorthodox - "Oh tommy!"

   Check out the Other section for a Tommygun model that replaces the M4! Also look forward to a whack of new crosshairs coming your way real soon!

   Two full updates to the others section in a row! We're settin' records here! :) Go take a look at the last two days posting in the others section for new skins for your shotgun, handcannon, mp5, grenades, pistols, bulletholes, and so on! We also have some icon packs coming your way soon, alongside with a few new sounds and a ton of crosshairs!

    Feb.24.1999.06:06pm EST - Unorthodox - " More gunskins and then some!"

   Hey everybody, there's a few more gunskins waiting for you in the other section so head on over and take a gander at the situation. I'm currently working on a special feature on gunskins which will include an interview and a whack of high-quality gunskins, this should be out by Monday at the latest and should turn out to be pretty exciting!

    Feb.19.1999.01:06pm CST - Clawz - " Config Files Facelift! "

   Yo-yo. Hey everyone I updated the config section with some more of those sweet config's you all have been sending in. I got a new design up and running which looks pretty nice! Let me know if any link's are bad or anything at my e-mail address above. Thx.

    Dec.30.1998.02:03am EST - Unorthodox - "Optionals"

      Welcome to the Optionals Section, where you will find many little tidbits for all your Action Quake needs; custom crosshairs, new radio sounds and spunky config files. We're accepting submissions so send Machine or myself your work and share it with the rest of us you hog! :)

   Our first submission comes from Guppyshark[FA] of clan Free Australia who sent a custom crosshair to Machine to start our collection. View it here or download it here or pop on over in to the new Crosshairs section and grab it from there. For those who have never used a custom crosshair, place it in your /Quake2/action/pics directory and rename it ch*.pcx, where * equals 1, 2 or 3. The change crosshair to the # you chose to use it in a game. The crosshair in the zip file has been altered to remove GuppySharks name. Have fun!
