**INSTALLATION**
1) Extract riscq3ctf1.zip into your quake3/baseq3 directory.
2) Start Quake 3, go to "single player."
3) Select "skirmish" and switch it to CTF.
4) Select "riscq3ctf1."
5) Proceed as usual from there.
NOTE: You must have the latest point release installed to see user-made
maps in the skirmish menu. You can also run this as a deathmatch level by
dropping the console (~), typing "map riscq3ctf1," hitting tab, then hitting
enter.
**NOTES**
I hope you like this CTF level. I built it in the manner of what I enjoy, as
always, and I hope you enjoy it too. It's symmetrical across two axis, in
the spirit of ID's own q3ctf3, which should make learning the layout fairly
intuitive. It has a combination of claustrophobic and agoraphobic areas for
a diverse emphasis of weapon proficiencies. The mean weapons are spread across
the midpoint, so they require some brave fetching, especially if you want
to defend the base. Don't sweat it, though, there are two railguns. Just
don't get cocky. :-)
