========================= Title : Mikes Deathmatch Maps, THE APOCRYPHA, and The Sentry Outpost ========================= Filename : MPDM.zip map file names: mpdm1.bsp mpdm2.bsp Date : 9/12/97 Author : Michael Petrie aka [EntiTy] Email : petrie@netaccess.co.nz Credits : id Software for Quake Ben Morris for Worldcraft 1.5a The best!!! The only!!! Build time : ============ Type of Mod ============ Quake C : no Sound : no MDL : no Map : yes, deathmatch only! Demo : no ================================ Description of the Modification ================================ THE APOCRYPHA 2-6 players This map originally started off as an idea of mine with making a map that only had the Db shotgun and the nailgun, after getting sick of campers on my isps server using anything that went boom. when the level was done, and i tried it out with reapers, i just wasnt having fun with the low end weapons. I decided to try it out with all the weapons, and found it _AWESOME_, with the tight corridors and crates, there are so many ambush opportunitys without actually camping...hurrah!!! also keep an eye out for the underwater secret... The Sentry Outpost 2-8 players I decided to make this map based on the "Rocket Tower" idea from e1m1. I wanted to make the object of this map to take control of the rocket tower, which happened to be the ideal spot on the level, with just about every visible exit in view. Once you had control, you could REALLY rack up the frags, but you also had to beware, and keep an eye on the button which could leave you feeling rather flat if pressed... Unfortunatly, I had to put a flippen great wall in front of one of the main corridors in view of the rocket tower, to keep the speed up, which reduces the effectiveness and the need to take over the Rocket tower which i had hoped for... maybe more thought into the design next time... Still, even though I havent played the map against other humans (only finished vising a couple of hours ago), its great fun with the dumbass reaper bots... ============ Installation ============ unzip the bsp into your id1 directory, and type "map mpdm1" at the console for THE APOCRYPHA, and "map mpdm2" for The Sentry Outpost. these maps is designed for deathmatch so doing the above is only to have a look, unless you try it with the excellent omicron bot. ============= Availibilty ============= where ever you got it from is where you can get it! please feel free to post this anywhere, (email me first) I plan to start up a webpage for general info on map editing, and a place to download my dm maps. These two are the last dm maps you'll see from me in a while... I plan to make a sort of single player/partial conversion map set, similar to the mexx levels. should be interesting... ======================================= Copyright and Distribution Permissions ======================================= The modifications included in this archive are Copyright (C) 1997 by Michael Petrie and Quake is Copyright (C) id Software.
