Borg 
Not familiar with terms. (What's a TC?)
Took me years to understand the word mod.
So I guess it's a small project of a quakemod with the startrek vessel and a borg cube.
Some new monsters and a challenge to resistance
(is futile).

short declare:
Once I made a rebuiled of a DukeN3D level of Startrack. Converted it in an obvious way with qwinbsp to Quake and got a level that outdstrided its dimensions much too large. It also had so many wedges I spent weeks deleting them untill I had a "reasonable" level. Years on I went back searching but it was lost.

Then I tumbled into a mod from Andrew Wyllie from 1997 and again my facination grew. It was a perfect mod, complete with additional qc, but no players as it was a level made for the net. And for me as addicted singleplayer this was a sad conclusion. I couldn't contact Wyllie, all posts from 1997 were lost.

So I began rebuilding the level piece by piece, as nowadays compilers are much more flexible. Also I thought the lightning was far too bright, and I wanted to add some new parts to make the level more attractive.
Then I came to the part I don't want the common Quake monsters in it, so here I am, construckting Romulans and Ferengi's.

Quark is from Deep Space 9. 
@madfox 
A TC means total conversion. Replacing all models and sounds and textures etc.

So no, this is not a TC as you will have kept a bunch of Quake stuff in your project. But that's cool and it looks like it will be fun. I was just curious. Also Quark made some appearances outside of DS9.

Armin Shimerman first appeared as Quark in the Star Trek: The Next Generation, season seven episode "Firstborn", where in conversation it is clear Riker already knew him, and in the Star Trek: Voyager pilot "Caretaker". He also played the character Quark on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Regis & Kathie Lee. 
New Map Beta 
Just A Trekky 
As I made new monsters for it, used the original textures of Andrew Wyllie, stripped the naughty sounds from the Startrek movies I'm close on the way from mod to tc. Only Quake's qc is still in use.

And yes, Quark may be in another chronologic matter, but I mapped for so long with the so called editor, I think it a tribute for the rather old actor nowadays. I thought eighty years or so. 
Screenshots Xlarve 
Please, put some screen shots before we download something. Is this too much to ask ? WTF ! 
Barnak 
What's wrong with you? Dude just posted his map and you're jumping down his throat about screenshots. At least ask politely. 
New Map Beta - Screens 
Wow Xlarve 
Now THAT'S a fucking Quake map, texan style ! 521 monsters in a monstruous freaking map of pure evil !

I was expecting another small retro map, but it's actually a major map for the serious quakers !

I played about 2/3 only. Would take me a full year to do it all without cheating ! 
Wow Xlarve 
dont worry - im making - playing only 7.5 months and learn every monster trap - map can walking through for 30 min (killing all monsters) 
Bork 
A bit fiddling on a bork model. Not yet well balanced, the weapon is a bit kinky. Also the wires get stuck when it makes movements.

hugh 
New Arcane Dimensions Map Sneak Peak. 
Tentatively titled Paradise Sickness, this map is much larger and more ambitious than my first. I am experimenting with the idea of a base map and Egyptian/medieval map in one. The story is that the forces of Quake have discovered some ancient ruins and have built an archaeological facility around them.

The map is using the Soc's amazing Egyptian set and Ikka's rusty ikbase set. Many other custom textures including some of my own are being put in. The map is inspired by Operation Earth Magik as well as many other things.

Here is a gallery of screens at Imgur: http://imgur.com/a/IrxoN

I also created a short HollyWood style teaser trailer so you can see the map in motion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1ky_56CrkM

Let me know what you think. I am hoping for this map to be impressive. Beta will not be ready for some time yet, I've got more additions to make.

Cheers, Redfield. 
Yep, Thats Cool 
 
@redfield 
I'm seeing a lot of very cool details like the lightning effects and "warm up" of the slipgate, the rotating bridge and a lot of very cool vertical elements. Looks great! 
Bork Model 
Madfox, that reminds me of one of Chasm the Rift monsters, you should check it out to get some ideas! 
Good Stuff, Redfield! 
 
Down With The Sickness 
Looking good Red, love the infusion of Egypt and base. Cool map name as well! 
@yhe1 
I have the Rift conversion from Ijed.
Chasm the Rift I couldn't find.
Not on Terminus or Quakaddicted.

Hey thanx for the link yhe1! A welcome addition!
I never played this mod and I am looking forward to it.

I had no idea these creatures excisted so I can imagine the likeness.
I have developped my skills to create new monsters, but at this time I'm more interested in adding new qc. And that's even a more harder skill.

@negk!e - Right. I'll scrap all earlier yearends.
