First off dont post the answer in any form, im just wanting to talk around it, (well maybe post the answer after the contest ends.)

I for one played quake 1 since it's release, played all the cool mods like team fortress, ctf, and rocket arena. Went through all the clients, winquake, glquake (w/ cool trans water), and quakeworld. Spent hours upon hours of my life playing deathmatch on slipgate among the other familar first episode levels, not to mention being slightly disturbed by christ hanging on the wall of ziggurats virtago. Ive dabbled with worldcraft, qME, and various other editors. Ive seen the dope fish, the hidden NiN logos, and that weird red thing that says "to" followed by some initials. I could write a book on quake 1 and the time I jokingly say I wasted on it, but I have never yet heard of a "exclusive shareware creature" before now in my life.

....im going nuts!

What are you talking about "maybe I'm just really slow"
 
yeh i didnt reply, cause i dont know wtf he is saying.

Seemed like he was asking if there was a creature in Doom or quak exclusive to the shareware versions. But i couldnt make a lot of sense out of it all.
 
a simple

Im guessing this contest will have quite a low turnout, much like this thread.

you'd think people would be all giddy over having the chance to win a free top of the line video card

The having to attend QuakeCon '04 part is the reason why i'm not the least bit excited about it.
 
It's about an hour drive for me, just this is one [H]ard question, it would be nice if someone could clarify the game atleast for me. =)
 
It was a _______, duh. I didn't even have to think about that. Shame I won't be going to Quakecon.

(Hint: it was a flying creature.)
 
Too bad I'm not going to Quakecon, because this is easy :(

btw (to original poster), it is not "shareware only", it is actually from QTest.
 
I must be slow or something, just played through quake 1.06 shareware found all the secrets in each level (even ziggarats) and still have yet to find "creature" that isnt in registered.

As for flying the only flying creature in the demo is the scrag (mdl called wizard for some odd reason?) Nearest thing that can fly in registered in the spawn, but it really just hops around. (rotfish can swim?)

Scrag is in the full game, and the spawn is in registered only, not the other way around, so nothing really fits.

Afaik this is a bogus question or not for quake1 =)

Edit: qtest was the magic word, never played/heard/thought of it (lol if it would have been doom1 test I woulda had a shot.)

Now I gotta play the thing... if I can find it. =)
 
heh, didnt see the mandatory quake con attendance. That rules alot of us who cant take time off of work.
 
omg cant believe I missed out on qtest, test3 brought up some good ole rocket arena memories =) Ill open up the files to double check what ive read on the net. thanks for giving me an idea where to look.
 
LoL @ some of the alpha sound effects, btw there are quite a few "creatures" in the test files that arent in the full game, but I know the answer he wants. (I feel [H]arder already)
