==================================================================== MoRT's LAiR A Quake 2 level by Joey Buck ==================================================================== filename : mortdm1.zip version : .90 1/12/98 author : Joey Buck aka MoRT contact : e-mail: mort@ptbo.igs.net homepage : N/A description : small 2-4 player DM level beta testers : Gripp, Preacher, Utah, MrBunyan, Babelfish, Langsuyar, Magicman Other levels by author : None, this is my first level ==================================================================== * information * single player : to walk around and look cooperative : no deathmatch : Yes difficulty settings : N/A demos replaced : None new graphics : No new sounds : No new monsters/weapons : No new Code : No music : No track pre-selected * construction * base : new level from scratch editor(s) used : qe4 build time : About 15 hours number of brushes : 437 compile time : On a P200 w/ 64 Megs RAM QBSP3: 10 sec QVIS3: 166 secs QRAD3: 404 secs known Bugs : some black marks on the wall near the func_plat under GL, which I have no idea how to get rid of. I tried recreating that whole wall, but to no avail. ==================================================================== * installation * Unzip the file mortdm1.bsp into your Quake2/Baseq2/maps directory, start Quake2 and type "map mortdm1" at the console. ==================================================================== * Credits * - id for creating a game that has held me in its grip since the first day I played qtest1 - MrBunyan and Utah at Cavedog for their encouraging comments - Preacher for his not so encouraging but contructive comments - thanks to all the guys in #level_design putting up with a non-level designer ===================================================================== * Other information * This is my first map, it was made basically as an experiment to learn qe4, which I have to say is an incredibly powerful editor and easy to use. I'm basing my response to this level whether I have a talent and should continue making levels. I know this level isn't exactly the best looking, but its built with gameplay in mind, I love q2's DM and I needed a small map for our LAN games, and this is it. Hopefully this is number one in a series of small, fast and fun DM levels. ===================================================================== * legal stuff * This level is copyright 1998 by Joey Buck.
