I, having a decently fast machine with a Pure3d vid card, frankly didn't test with enough people with slower machines. This version is a whole lot faster, with all known bugs fixed.I reduced the amount of textures, and dropped the R_speeds a great deal. Fixing several issues i had run into with Quark, it also reduced the build time to less than Half! Sorry if you have downloaded the previous version, Please give this one a try! * How to use this level * Make a "maps" directory in ../quake2/baseq2 and copy the level into it. In Quake2, bring up the console and type in "map firstry01". * Copyright / Permissions * This level is (c) by Ken Nichols 1998.
