: Let's get one thing straight - we're not talking about porting Marathon to
: Q3, we're talking about being able to play Marathon in all its
: incarnations using a modern game engine. Who cares what the Q3 community
: things about the ported maps - I just want to be able to play Marathon ad
: infinitum with a stable, carbon game engine.

Would it be stable? Seems like there would inevitably be some bugs in the conversion process. Someone would have to test it with every map in the Archives.

I did, in fact, think you were talking about porting Marathon to Q3. Like, making Eternal Mk V or Rubicon 2 with bigger worlds, smarter enemies, more weapon and monster variety, 3D models, online co-op, and so on.

: Now if someone wants to go
: the extra mile to redo the Marathon maps to take advantage of the full 3D
: abilities of Q3, more power to them, but I want to at least reach the
: first rung of the ladder. Why should Marathon forever be limited by the
: original M2 source code? That's where we stand now.

What limits are these again?
