----what to do-------------------------------------------------
Extract the contents of lvl-pq-pack1.zip to your Quake III Arena
folder with directory structures. Do NOT overwrite your pak0.pk3
file, the one included should be extracted to a 'lvl-pq-pack1'
folder. Start muiltplayer game as per normal. In 'Skirmish' mode
some levels will only appear in the 'Tourney' menu, others only
in the 'Free For All'.
If you wish to play the maps as a Single Player Mission see below
for more info.
----single play support----------------------------------------
When you unzipped the contents of lvl-pq-pack1.zip you also
created a lvl-pq-pack1 folder that will allow you to play all
the levels in a Single player Tier.
If you want to "record" your stats and progress through the 2
tiers, you need to start the game with "+set fs_game lvl-pq-pack1".
For Windows users, you can use the included "lvl-pq-pack1.bat"
(for standard Quake3) or "lvl-pq-ioquake3.x86.bat" for IOQuake3
users.
Mac and Linux users will need work out how to do this.
While you can use the Quake 3 menu system to select the mod and
start the single player mission, your "stats" and tier progress
is NOT recorded this way.
Bot play is not great on all the maps, but its better than
nothing :]
----authors and maps-------------------------------------------
* flying plutonians by nunuk (plutonians)
* kleskonian hights by nunuk (klhights)
* distonic_small by nunuk (distonic_small)
* Space Jam by }{ammer (htourney1)
* Cosmik Debris by unitool (map-unitooldm3a)
* Majesty by Ned Man (nedmaj)
* Si'Metrik by Sock (simetrik)
* Mutually Assured Destruction - Tournament ed. by Mr.CleaN (mrcq3t2)
----running a server-------------------------------------------
Also included is a map cycle file for server admins;
* lvl-pq-pack1.cfg - contains all the maps, suits 2 to 8 players
If you currently run a server you will know what to do with
these. If your new to it all, start your server and type the
following at the console;
\exec lvl-pq-pack1.cfg
This will start the map cycle and set the timelimit at 15
minutes with a fraglimit of 50. After a lot of play testing
I've found this to be a very comfortable set-up for a LAN or
an online server.
