Nah Tronyn hadn't mapped regularly for like 8 years before Mjolnir's first demo released. The community was kept alive by map jams from a pretty homo community, but it was going very strong. It's slowed down because people move on.
Mjolnir was definitely what I was looking forward to the most from Quake, but the project is on indefinite hold without Tronyn's direction I hear. A great shame. Fella named Shadesmaster who was working on Mjolnir with Tronyn, Qmaster, and ORL is working on his own mod called Sacrilege. It's bretty gud, takes a lot of influence from Scourge of Armagon. He's accepting map submissions for a Sacrilege jam that's currently belated last I heard.
There's currently a huge vacuum for "guy who makes epic Quake maps." ORL, the guy behind Ter Shibboleth, could definitely fill Tronyn's shoes, but I think after Ter Shib's less than stellar reception that won't happen. There's also the guys behind SMEJ, that had some epic maps I hear (never got around to it myself). All in all, Quake is waiting for someone or a group of someone's to take the community for another heyday.
