just calm down 

 

There's a skill above nightmare you'd enjoy: easy skill... with cheats turned off :P 

The difficulty I was talking about isn't about monsters (even without cheating, nightmare isn't enough monsters for me, if there's enough ammo).

The level is difficult because of its complexity. You start the map with your legs off, and need to find your way without alerting the dogs and other suckers while you're crawling on the ground. Then, you need to find some computer hardware to activate some processes at various places of the map.

The map is a real maze, especially at the end, when you trigger the auto-destruction sequence (ijed, is the girl's voice your sister ? ;-). You have 4 minutes to find your way through the maze and get out, and the maze is changing during the count-down sequence with many new suckers on your way. Using the God mode doesn't change this.

It isn't the usual Quake1 map, which are usually pretty easy even on nightmare skill. 

Just to add that my previous description of the telefrag map isn't a crittic. It's actually an unexpected truly awesome map. There's a high contrast between the telefrag map and the two other maps from the pack.

I'm jealous of your maping skills, ijed.

... and what about your sister ? 

Here is my stream vod http://www.twitch.tv/tddaz/b/568940906 (4 hours crits you for 9001)

My mind is a blur after all that (thx ijed ;)) but damn those were some crazy detailed maps. Had a blast going through this pack! 

I posted it to ModDB as well: http://www.moddb.com/mods/rubicon-rumble-pack 

I used a voice generator and fan ir through goldwave.

At one point I had the AI talking to you throughout the entire map. Then it pissed me off. 

Spanish spellcheck strikes again! 

Still haven't played the map, but am somehow very satisfied and at peace seeing .alpha support and alpha texture support being realized.

I'm trying to avoid screen shots like the ones on moddb page. 

52932 visleafs exceeds standard limit of 8192

I'll post my thoughts on the maps later as I'm still playing them, but I just had to bring this up.

53 thousand vis leafs in locust? How long was the vis job? How long did it take for you to find every leak and patch it? Are you people insane?! 

craziness!

Proper comments on all maps once I play mfx's. Am I right that despite the pak containing 2 mfx maps you can onl play 1? Or is there a secret or something? 

There's a small credits map. 

It's working and it's awesome! 

and how does one get to that? 

I ran mfxsp20 from the console. If there's a secret door, or something, then I completely failed at finding it. 

It's small door near water at the bottom of the level, and when you try it before you finished the final fight, it gives a message along the lines of "Only when you finish your task!". 

you lazy fuck 

 

Nevermind. 

mfx's level, yes. 

Skacky!

Really, really appreciate that! 

Just for the fun of it : I launched the auto-destruction sequence directly at the beginning of the map (duh ! using the God mode and noclip), and played the map in the dark (with holes everywhere).

It was fun to see all those anxious graunts everywhere (after the base "exploded") and earing many idiots far away, killed during the destruction process (falling into holes, etc).

Okay, I admit that my way of playing Quake is highly non-standard, but I have lots of fun with it. 

I was going to use Dr Who Exploding church method to destroy the base at one point...

6 months ago it took 5 days! But thanks to rebb developing the tools I was able to get it down to 11 hours for the released version.
So rebb is the man!! I love the job he has done with the tools!!

daz:

Oh by the way! You missed the under the lift secret!!! 8-)

And all thats playing! I hope you will have fun playing these maps.
