Not your typical digs map... but I dig it nonetheless. Assuming the final arena is still being worked on, I thought the rest of the map was quite polished and good to go. The layout can be a bit confusing and the silver key door is tricky to find - I think I stumbled upon it accidentally. Otherwise nice map, especially the underground sections, and the secrets kicked my ass, 1/4. 

Played through the map on skill 1, 2/4 secrets found.

The map is very good-looking and plays very well. I liked especially the underground areas, as i'm not a big fan of open spaces.
All areas are well connected, so i never got lost as it happens usually when i play maps this large.
Good art style too, you can really feel the horror atmosphere playing through every area.
Pace was good, and i never found myself struggling too much for ammos. I like the way you put the right amount of them over the map.

I din't like too much the paintings from plants vs zombies, as i think tributes to other games should be put in some secret areas, and not all over the place. I felt like they were a bit taking away that horror feel (that i loved) from the map.
Some areas of the map felt like they were supposed to be important, with good detail and interesting design (that area under the bridge for example) but then i found they were useless. Maybe that's just because i didn't found the secrets, who knows! 

I don't understand what is happening with the ascending scales. I can't use them wathever what I'm doing (walking, running on it, jumping, ...). I tried the default QS 0.93.0 and the Spike version.

Something seems fishy here.

I agree about the zombie cartoons. They feel goofy in Quake. Maybe some monsters porn instead ? 

I can explain what they do on the walls. This map was made at the request of my son. He is 12 years old. Therefore, there are such awkward things on the map. I myself understand that they are not written off in the overall design, but still decided to leave them 

Wow, you're a super-dad dude!

My dad is 81 years and would never make Quake maps for me :-( 

impressive stuff, very blood-like. I like that you're using tronyn's mod, not enough people use it tbh 

When downloading AfterQuake I saw a screenshot of a mirrored player.
Is this effect obtainable in AfterQuke, or is it a sidecase effect of DarkPlaces that creates this mirror?

that's FTE's r_telestyle 3 setting. 

Thanks for info, Spike!

Or should I say, blame me for not reading the manual. 

Dear friends, a.k.a fucking morons.
Please learn to upload your files to the right folder instead of cluttering the main page with your shit, forcing people to scoll down endlessly for the login button.
Thanks! 

Any way of just moving the files? I know it would break some hyperlinks but the files would still be retained

I'm late on this one, but I finally got around to playing it and I just love it! Of course whenever I see a map that isn't the conventional Quake theme of castle or base gets my attention. (Not that that's a bad thing) You did a stellar job of creating a farmhouse, at least that's what I think it is. Everything looks good from the decrepit interiors and the windows letting you see the inside, to the vegetation outside. My only suggestion would have been to make the spinning part of the windmill more visible to the player throughout the map, as I think it makes an excellent set piece.

As far as gameplay, it wasn't too bad on hard skill. Almost died at the end but I always have trouble with those gugs.

I think you did an excellent job with this one, certainly well enough to be fully released.

First run demo, hard skill: http://www.quaketastic.com/files/demos/orl_digs09.rar 

Thanks a lot! I already thought that no one would record a demo for me. I liked that you managed to pass the map from the first time. The last hall is difficult for me, but I think it should be so. 

As for the mill ... Her blades and so big. And they have no physical collision with objects. I calculated its length so that it was not noticeable.

For the release, I will add a few monsters on a hard level, otherwise it is not much different from the normal level. And the last room due to the large delays between the waves of monsters will be a little easier.

I am also glad that the map is like. In the coming days I will post a release 

hi, here's my attempt to beat the map on skill 3

lasted 'til the gugs

reminded me of hexen2/blood combo 

Thank you very much for the game. When you killed the vorelings, I also thought about monster_jump. In the release I will add it. Thanks again!

i would advise you to increase the secret count on your map, for a such big map the number of the secrets is to low 

 

Hallo friends. six months have been gone till I started with mapping for quake. Now I think this thing is going for finish.
Right now I'm checking out the failures in compiling.

I would ask you guys now for help.
Are there bugs? Graphic problems? or other issues.
Please tell me!

best wishes
