Title:The Ancient Place Filenames: aty3dm1v2.pk3, aty3dm1 Readme File size: 18 Mb Author: Kaustic Address: **email removed** Description:Egyptian style map suited for fast gameplay.Mainly InstaUnlagged style of play. Althought this map is suitable for baseq3 style of play,the majority of the beta testing and play was done with the OSP and InstaUnlagged Mods. OSP config - Spawn with all weapons,health and armor. No item/weapon pickups. Grappling hook enabled. Higher game speed and customized weapon damage and faster rail reload. No BFG. ============================================================================================= Additional Credits: Bubba's Arena Tutorials - His website is where I learned enough to get started mapping. dONKEY - Mapping tutorials Cardigans Place - Tutorials on bot optimization of maps and mapping tutorials Bad Apple Mappery - Mapping tutorials Soc - For all of his cool textures and plants Quake3World Level Editing Forum - Thanks to the Moderators and all the people that give answers to those of us asking questions or looking for input.

You can choose between a xaero skin based statue, or a deathmonger skin based. I took the xaero model as base model, created by Kenneth Scott, from Id Software. ============================================================================= * How to install the model * ============================================================================= Simply unzip the .pk3 file into your baseq3 directory. ============================================================================= * How to add this model to your maps * ============================================================================= Start Q3radiant and open/create the destination map for the model. Right click wherever you want and select the "misc-model" option. Close the browser and type this in the "key" and "value" boxes from the newborn floating window: Key: "model" Value: "models/mapobjects/xaero_statue/xaero_statue.md3" "models/mapobjects/dm_statue/dm_statue.md3" Depending in which of the two versions you want to add. ============================================================================= * Permissions * ============================================================================= This mapobject may be electronically distributed only at no charge to the recipient, and may not be modified in any way.

I (Obsidian) am redistributing this pack with Todd's permission with several bug fixes and optimizations. INSTALLATION ================================================================= * Remove any older versions of the Multiplant model pack. * Extract zzz_md3_multiplant_v23.pk3 to "baseq3" directory. * Note: Do not rename the zzz_md3_multiplant_v23.pk3 file. PK3 files are loaded into Quake3 in alphabetical order and the updated multiplant model pack must be loaded after any pre- existing versions to overwrite them. VERSION HISTORY ================================================================= 2.3 (03.03.05) * tallpalm1.map, tallpalm2.map, tallthinpalm.map prefab objects rebuilt in 3dsMAX and exported as ASE models (remakes) * Resized image files to power of 2 dimensions (larger file size but optimized for texture memory and image quality) * palm3.md3 - rearranged edge orientation, welded vertexes, reapplied smoothing groups, UVW-wrapped, reapplied materials * palm4.md3 - welded vertexes, reapplied smoothing groups, reapplied materials * palm4a.md3 - welded vertexes, reapplied smoothing groups, changed leaf materials from palmfrond to bannanaleaf 2.2 (28.02.05) * Fixed bug when models are overlapped with alphaMod volume brushes (thanks ydnar) * Fixed missing shader error (thanks Kat) * Rewrote "invisible" shader for dual purpose use with both legacy and modern maps * Renamed PFB files to MAP for use with GtkRadiant * Reattached Todd's prefabs to zip * Added multiplant.bsp as a model gallery (/devmap multiplant) 2.1 (03.06.04) * Updated to include Plant Model Pack II * Palm models processed through MD3Fix.exe * palms.shader merged into multiplant.shader * "models/mapobjects/multiplant/invisible" shader replaced with a modified nodraw shader for reduced polycounts 2.0 (28.05.04) * Initial Version 2 release * MD3's processed through MD3Fix.exe 0.2 to correct invalid shader names generated by Pop'n'Fresh NOTES FOR DEVELOPERS ================================================================= Also included for developers are updated versions of Todd's prefabs, converted to .map format for use with recent versions of GtkRadiant. To view the gallery type "/devmap multiplant" in the console. The sample map was compiled with Q3Map2 2.5.16 with the following light switches: -light -fast -patchshadows -samples 3 -gamma 2 -compensate 4 -dirty To add models in your maps, you may need to extract the MD3 files from the PK3 to your development directory. Make sure you add "multiplant" to your shaderlist.txt document. Compile your map using the latest stable version of Q3Map2. As a result of creating support of legacy maps as well as optimizing the models for new maps, the "invisible" shader was improved for this release (2.2+). Legacy maps will display an invisible shader, but extra polys will be drawn. Newly compiled maps will make use of the nodraw features of the shader, so the extra polys will not be drawn in game, resulting in improved performance. I noticed that palm4.md3 and palm4a.md3 were the exact same model so I retextured the leaves of palm4a with the bannanaleaf.tga texture to give some variation between the models (version 2.3). THANKS ================================================================= Obsidian would like to thank... * ydnar for Q3Map2, MD3Fix and help with the updated shaders. * Kat for bug testing. * Todd Gantzler for the chlorophyll.
