---------------------------------------------------25.Nov.2019-- ..::LvL Q3A - 20 Years -------------------------------------------------lvlworld.com/-- Quake 3 Arena and ..::LvL Q3A has been running now for 20 years. This pack covers 22 maps released over that time. After playing a short list of about 150 maps from the more than 2,300 that are currently listed on ..::LvL, one of the hardest things I have done over the last 20 years is picking which releases to include in this pack. While this limited release of 22 maps will not suit everyone, during play testing, these maps stood out to me. ----Included maps---------------------------------------------- - ChiropteraDM by Alcatraz, nunuk and Sock - OverWhelming Hostility by Auhsan - Estatica by Cardigan - Rainy Day by cityy - McSarge's by cityy - Shibam by DaEngineer - Up Close and Personal by DruZli - Meatball Grinder (v1.1) by Fingers - Undergod by fKd - Endurance by flipout - Iron Yard by Friction - Rustgrad by Hipshot - The Forlorn Hope by JustOneFiX - Ludonarrative Dissonance by Lunaran - You'll Shoot Your Eye Out by Lunaran and KungFuSquirrel - Story to tell by NecrosiS - Trespass by Pat Howard - Swiss Cheese Trickster by Q-Fraggel - Focal Point by Sock - Dismemberment by the Hubster - Aerowalk [Hubster's Remix II] by The Preacher - conversion by the Hubster - Tortured by thefury ----what to do------------------------------------------------- Extract the contents of lvl-20-years.zip to your baseq3 directory. Start Quake 3 and load the map of choice from the skirmish menu. You could also play through all the maps as a single player mission. In your baseq3 directory should also be a "lvl-20-years-sp.zip" file. This is a simple Q3A mod that will allow you to play all the maps as a single play tier. Exact the lvl-20-years-sp.zip (with directories enabled) to your main Quake 3 location. This will create a "lvl-20-years" directory with the following files: - description.txt - lvl-20-years.pk3 - lvl-20-years.txt (a copy of this readme) - lvl-20-years-start.bat - lvl-20-years-ioquake3.x86.bat - lvl-20-years-ioquake3.x86.sh While you can now use the Quake 3 menu system to select the "..::LvL Q3A - 20 Years" mod and start the single player mission, your status and tier progress is NOT recorded this way. ----keeping track---------------------------------------------- If you want to "record" your status and progress through the tiers, you need to start the game with the command line option: "+set fs_game lvl-20-years" For Windows users, you can use the included batch files, either "lvl-20-years-start.bat" or "lvl-20-years-ioquake3.x86.bat" For Mac and Linux users, there is an included shell script that may work for you. "lvl-20-years-ioquake3.x86.sh" If it does not work, open and edit to suit your environment. ----who did this?---------------------------------------------- This Map Pack was put together by Tigger-oN to encourage people to play these maps. This is only a small sample of the excellent Q3A mapping skill of people. All included authors were contacted, but not everyone responded. If your map is listed but you would rather it was not included, please get in touch. For more info and a lot more maps check out; ..::LvL Q3A - https://lvlworld.com/
