Always a pleasure to see John wax lyrical on graphics tech. I used to love reading his .plan files back in the day and recently found a link to a PDF version of some of them here on HN: http://www.scribd.com/doc/14192/John-Carmack-Archive-plan-1998 http://www.scribd.com/doc/14192/John-Carmack-Archive-plan-19... - via https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3367230 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3367230
- gcr 13y agoThat is not a link to a PDF. Would you mind sharing the original PDF if you have it? I can't/won't read scribd documents. Edit: As an HTML document: http://www.team5150.com/~andrew/carmack/plan.html http://www.team5150.com/~andrew/carmack/plan.html
- wahnfrieden 13y agoYour link doesn't work. Do you mean "can't" as in "I've blocked it for myself" i.e. "won't"? :)
- saidajigumi 13y agoFWIW, here's a link to a PDF version: http://fd.fabiensanglard.net/doom3/pdfs/johnc-plan_1997.pdf http://fd.fabiensanglard.net/doom3/pdfs/johnc-plan_1997.pdf
- floody-berry 13y agoIt is at http://floodyberry.com/carmack/ http://floodyberry.com/carmack/ now, although I desperately need to update it.
- rlx0x 13y agooh good question, I always assumed you could just download the pdf version from scribd. but you need to pay $9 for that. Who the hell gets the money? and who would ever use it ever.
- biot 13y agoI fondly remember fingering John about once a week back when I was in university just to see if he had posted anything new.
