Before we begin to frag :) this erm getting longer readme file needs to be read :) heheh NOTE: README files are
SPose to be READ so plz don't msg me saying u cant get the arena to work etc.. blah blah :) heheh :)
SLoB :p

hmm wish I had a penny for every time sum1 asks me wot to do cos they couldnt be Arsed to read the readme file heheh

** THIS RA3 Map has been optimised to the max :) So Don't giv me hassle saying your grfx card cant handle it !!!
This map should be real nice to play even on sum low end systems and gives more fps than some of the current ra3maps.
if your pc can't handle it then time to upgrade my friends :)

Well I hope this map provides fun for peeps and inspiration for any mappers out there :) this map has been hard work
but the results are well worth it as I'm sure you will agree :)

Woah heh I keep adding to this Readme heheh lol :) Stop it Slob :)

Well Thnx to the Guys who have done those Fantastic Sky environments, I used a few so lets give credit
where credits due :)

GothicWaters Skybox : Mighty Pete @ www.geocities.com/petes-oasis/
Cathedral Square Skybox : Mighty Pete @ www.geocities.com/petes-oasis/
Fast Railto Die Skybox : Sock @ www.planetquake.com/simland
Sector 5a Skybox : Justin Fisher @ www.geocities.com/soho/lofts/1121 Skyboxes: quake.stuff.gen.nz
No Unkillable Thrills Skybox : Mighty Pete @ www.geocities.com/petes-oasis/

I've no doubt that peeps will think the skies r cool so thnx to the peeps who put the hard work into
providing these for your fraggin pleasure :)
wow that mighty pete has some awsome sky boxes :) n1 m8 keep up the good work :)

I did modify all the skybox tgas to Jpgs to optimise the file size of the map :)
and also made all the env in my own texture folder to keep most things in the same place.

Thnx to the peeps who did the custom models that you can see in this map :), I'm sure you will agree I have been fairly tasteful
in what has gone into the map :)

Thnx goes to Bulldog for submitting his 2 Arenas Sector5a and Cathedral Square.
I have been over these arenas and optimised them to the hilt and also re-textured just about all of the textures.
and also practically remade all the brushes :( you had some real naughty brushes in there m8 :)

This is also due to the fact that adding many maps into one huge map for the multiarena environment that
textures seem to have rediculous parameters when that map is imported. lots of funny things happen.

For those of you who dont know :) mapping an RA3 map has been so addictive and enjoyable and also a lot of hard work!
there has been problems along the way but I have overcome them to give you this map for your fraggin pleasure :)
have fun with it, it was designed as an RA3 map only and will only work properly with the RA3 mod!
so for those peeps that say the teleporters dont work etc. it does only work with RA3!! :) the entities are specific to the
code of ra3.

Thnx Also goes to the Mapping Forums here and there for ideas, replies etc without the wealth of knowledge out there in the
mapping community it would be a great loss, so heres to all the peeps who have provided solutions to mappers probs :)
