@mappacker: Yes, if the copyright was owned by a single person or if the maps were made to be included in a pack.

However, as these maps are also released individually, re-packing them into a single pk3 would cause server conflicts when playing them online or against someone else on a LAN who had individual release.

On top of that rather serious issue, technically single releases and should be played as such. The maps are also released under different copyright terms and should not be re-packed.

This pack and many other packs are simply a convenience for players to quickly get a lot of good quality maps on their hard drive.

So, the short answer is "yes", if originally designed as such and "no" if the map pack is a compilation of previously released levels.

shouldn't the maps & scripts be compiled in a single .pk3 file? it makes easier to maneuver.

Just another player here who would like to see some theme maps. Space, castles, CTF anyone? These packs could be so phat.. not to say the current one isn't, but theme maps would give everyone a choice to go with what they like best, if they loved solid ground and hated flying through space.

Just another player here who's beggin for another reason to download map packs.

Whenever im looking for cool maps I come to LvL. Since day 1 of this site, it hasnt let me down... Many thanxx

Ive been using a rarely used mod for them called HELLFIRE, cant find any servers for it so im forced to play with bots.

If LvL has their own server for its maps please let me know unless im just blind. I think it would be a good idea to cycle thru latest reviews so that we can see how it plays with real players.

thanxx again!

The maps can be d/loaded individually, just follow the links above (click on the map title) then d/load the single player script.

Nice Idea.

Better to have a: "TOP 10 OF ALL TIMES" download file, and a "TOP 5 OF THE MONTH".

That way people could decide houw "up to date" they want to be (only play the 10 BEST maps, or play the best CURRENT maps this month).

What do you think?

Thank You,

When I get Quake 3, I will get this. I know I'm silly for replying to this, but earlier I looked at my old bookmarxs, and I found an old link to paradies site. I hope he has good luck, and good luck to you all and your maps.

Now, to get Quake 3...

yeah, space maps would make a cool pack... i like KLCURVES(small), KLHIGHTS, MVDM01, QUARTZDM2, SIMETRIK...

as far as a ctf pack, i'd be nice, but as someone already said, threewave is doing one, and you probably wouldn't want to compete with that. if you do decide to make one anyway (theirs may be a while away, and will feature revamped levels), i suggest:

  • Whitenoise (wnoise)
  • Headsab
  • Dead Wrong (jnyctf1)
  • Crossed Paths (dboxctf2)
  • Cast Into Shadows (quartzctf1)
  • Schadenfreude (schadctf),
  • Q3coretctf
btw-riscq3ctf2 looks incredible, but plays horribly in my experience due to the separateness of the two bases and the single entry into each.

oh yeah, the level pak is great, nice b/c it shows a taste in play value rather than appearance that (for me at least) is sometimes hard to be attentive to in dm/1v1 levels.

Great selection of maps, tho Im surprised that Coriolis Storm is not included (lun3dm1). IMO, the best or tied with a few very select others, custom map made. Another surprise is that one of the maps by Senn isnt in it.

the best for sure...like somebody said, it's a nice surprise to play to future brownie again. nice pick.

submitting an idea:
i know that a large number of players are not really spacemap freaks, however, it would be a good idea to also make a spacemap pack in the future. no matter what people say about those, it remains a genre, with its own strategy and fun.

umm.. Don't compile zip files in the wee hours of the morning...

here is a link to a patch for the single player part, it also includes the missing map.

FileFront: lvlworld.com/dl.php

Anyone who downloaded the pack before this post may want to grab the patch - and a BIG thanx goes out to Jim for drawing my attention to it.

This truly means rewarding to me, and I'm happy and proud to see that Short Circuit is being received so well. It kind of means saying thank you to me and my mapping efforts in a way words could never do... and I say, Thank you thank you thank you too...=) Where's the Champagne!!!I bring out a toast to all the level authors that contributed to this ..::LvL pack as well as to the reviewers at this site who assembled this level pack with their highly optimized taste for the matter. A level pack from this site means a lot to me.......

Yeeehaa! Partyyyy!!!

I just played though this single player and auh3dm1 is missing from the zip. The txt file is there, but the pk3 for it is not. So it breaks the single player ladder. Also I'm playing this using 1.25y and a lot of the maps have the frag limit set to 2 for some reason.

Oh yer.. if you have suggestions for a CTF pack let me know as I'm not a good CTF player and would not trust my judgement as much as others. The maps I would go with (for CTF) would be some of the following;

  • An Iteration of Hell (halctf4b)
  • Can I Take It To The Bridge? (2nd Ed) (mapel4b)
  • Cast Into Shadows (quartzctf1)
  • Castles Arrrghhh (halctf2)
  • Crossed Paths (dboxctf2)
  • White Noise - F3 Edition (wnoise)
  • Japanese Castles (japanc)
  • Two Halves (s20ctf1)
  • Grazer Station (jlctf1)
Well, thats where I would start anyway :]

Type 40 - No, they are all sperate so if you have a few of the files you can just download the ones you are missing. All the titles above link to the maps on ..::LvL, so you could grab them from there. The single player mission is about 47kb but will require ALL the maps.

Yeah, everyone is going to disagree with at least a couple . . . human nature in action (especially that last one, what the hell is that (heehee)), but it is an excellent idea. And you did manage to include a few of my all-time faves (beatbox, infernal genesis, fff, and, yeah "that last one"). :)

I've been hoping you would do something like this for a long time. Glad to see it finally happened. Hopefully this will get more server admins to run these maps.

I disagree with a couple of the picks but the idea gets a 10. :)
