Title : Dark 0.4 beta deathmatch maps for Quake
Filename : Dark04b.zip
Author : Ray
Email Address : ray@utctu8.ct.utwente.nl
Description : Two beta deathmatch maps from my Dark episode for
Quake(tm).
'Dark Base'(1.4 MB): base type level for
4-5 players
'Dark Halls'(0.9 MB): metal type (a la DM2)
for 3-4 players
This thing replaces 'darkhall.zip', which was
screwed up anyway.
Additional Credits to : - Roy & Painless for the beta deathmatches
- id for letting me redistribute their
textures
- Chris Carollo and Trey Harrison for Quest
================================================================
* Play Information *
Single Player : Yes. DarkBase is the entrance level. But despite
the cheap tricks I used to make things interesting
for single player, they remain dedicated deathmatch
maps.
If you just want to check them out for tonight's
deathmatch, be sure to set the 'deathmatch' variable
to 1 at the console.
Cooperative : Yes, untested.
Deathmatch : Yes, damnit, yes!
Difficulty Settings : Yes
New Sounds : No
New Graphics : Yes
New Music : No
Demos Supplied : Not this time. This thing is big enough as it is.
* Construction *
Base : New levels from scratch
Editor(s) used : vi, Quest beta 1.092
Known Bugs : None.
Build Time : 32 hours per map so far.
Texture Wads used : mostly quake101.wad and base.wad
Compile machine : p166 / 48MB
QBSP Time : minutes (lots of disk swapping)
Light (-extra) Time : minutes
Full VIS Time : a few more minutes
* Changes *
Dark Base 0.3 --> 0.9 : Single player stuff, removed teleporter in single
player mode
Better 'deathmatch exit obstacle'
Different intermission camera
Texture alignment again
Dark Halls 1.01 --> 1.02: Single player stuff: exit, optional buttons
Changed boring platforms to gratings
* How to use this map (like you don't know this) *
- Copy "dark*.bsp" to "id1\maps\" (create the "maps" directory
if necessary).
- Run Quake
- Bring up the console
- Type "map darkbase" (without the quotes) from the console.
* Other Info *
These are the maps from the Dark episode that I think are already good
enough to be released. I'm working on all maps simultaneously, so I don't
know which one will come next. Besides, I have a life, too...

I don't care what you do with the files in this zip archive, as long as you
do not separate them and leave them intact.
The guys at id software probably DO mind. Read the docs that come with
Quake.
