================================================================================ * LEVEL INFORMATION * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TITLE : Shad3DM1 - Damaged (v1.1) FILENAME : shad3dm1.pk3 | shad3dm1.bsp (level) : shad3dm1_music.pk3 (music) : shad3dm1_update.pk3 (v1.1 patch) AUTHOR : Peter "Shadowdane" Weatherby RELEASE DATE : 05.28.2002 GAME : Quake III Arena TYPE : DeathMatch EMAIL ADDRESS : **email removed** HOMEPAGE URL : **invalid URL** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * VERSION INFO * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- v1.1 - Added the 2 missing textures v1.0 - First Public Release (.pk3 was missing 2 textures) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * LEVEL DESCRIPTION * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I really hate writing these level descriptions, so this will be short... My first Q3 level!! :) This map originally started as a Q3 CTF map that I started almost 2 years ago, in late March I decided to have a go at making it into a DM map. Damaged is an underground base constructed of 2 main atriums and a number of hallways, and caves for your deathmatch enjoyment. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * ADDITIONAL INFO * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I included a demo bundled with the level, called shad3dm1. It features me playing against 16 bots!! =) This is a great demo for benchmarking due to its rather high-poly counts. The demo only works on Quake3 v1.31. This level has slightly higher r_speeds than most of the standard ID software maps. r_speeds are about 7,000 average, with the highest point I could find hits 15,000. I could of lowered r_speeds but that would of lowered the detail of the level quite a bit. I just wasnt willing to cut out details or alter the layout to save a few fps. Minimum System Specs: Pentium III 500MHz 128MB RAM 32MB Graphics Card with Hardware T&L (ex. NVidia GEForce) I ran the level on a system with simular specs (P3-550MHz, 192MB RAM, 32MB GEForce DDR) at 640x480 32bit color with graphics settings on Normal.. I got an average of about 35fps playing with 4 players. The FPS ranged from about 25fps - 80fps. Of course lowering the color depth to 16bit will increase fps quite a bit. I assume most Q3 players have something a bit more powerful than this, so it should be a problem at all. Recommended System Specs: Pentium III/AMD Athlon 700MHz or higher 256MB RAM 64MB Graphics Card with Hardware T&L (ex. NVidia GEForce2 Series) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is pretty simple.. unzip into: \Quake III Arena\baseq3 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SINGLE PLAYER : For lookin around DEATHMATCH : Yes - FFA, Team DM, and Tourney SUGGESTED PLAYER LOAD : 2-8 Players (8 is quite crowded) NEW TEXTURES : Yes NEW SHADERS : Yes (Sky and Water textures made by me, Steam Shaders : are from H2SO4 by Ben "Krash" Ackland.
