well, wildcard, i really dont care except for the hype that's in the post. it's just a raycaster, and one they didnt program at that. i recall nebula making one on their own with ugl and i wonder what happened to that (if they rereleased that i'd be more impressed, even if it wasnt as good).
"3d freedom" is a hack in raycasting that involves shifting the pixels up or down. you can't look up or down, and it becomes exponentially more distorted as you do. furthermore it was a hack already in rte.
now i dont care that they made a game with it. in fact i'm glad they did, but just dont go around saying stuff like "3d in qb? some thought it impossible! but lo and behold we are revolutionary!" if they didnt modify the engine at all. (yeah, i know that's the form in which it was given to you).
to nebula: i like your game, i honestly do. just cut with the "see the future in qb first person shooters!"

i]"I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum ... you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?"[/i] - Dirty Harry
