Func_Msgboard: Three Old Quake 3 Maps Released By Bal

Posted by bal on 2005/01/30 05:35:44

Well, I finally got around to releasing all these old maps that have been lying around my hard-drive for the last 2 or 3 years now...
Hope someone still cares. =)

Bal3dm5 - Junk Data (aka, "soon")
Well, almost everyone on #terrafusion has already played this, but here it is, finally officially released...

Bal3void1 - Peaceful Holidays in Egypt
Some funky Pyramid map thingy I made while chatting with Sock on IRC years ago, probably not playable... =D

Bal3void2 - Malfunctioning Nano-Constructor
Some other funky giant piece of flying brushwork, not sure what I was thinking, probably not playable either... =D

Well, that's it for my Quake 3 mapping career, was a good engine to work with.
None of these maps have had so much beta-testing for proper gameplay, but thanks to Nanospawn and Ironhammer for doing a final check on them.

PS: Rejoice! For all three of these maps contain a large ammount of TRIANGULAR LIGHTS! yay.

WOW. The screenshots look fantabulous!! I will download these right away and see if I can get some proper gaming on them, but I doubt I will be able to. They look awesome.

Yeah, about that, I forgot to say: All the .maps files are included, just check inside the .pk3s.

The "release bal3dm5 already" joke is dead =(. But anyway, although none of the void maps are playable, bal3dm5 is some sweet versus map that could be perfectly playable in FFA.

Cheers, frenchiard =), and great levelshots there

Bong... Bong... Bong... Gah!

Other than the irritating ambient sound, and a spot opposite the RA where you can climb up and see outside the level... I love it.

Level load art deserves a special mention. It rawks.

*Thinks good things about French mappers*

Congrats on finally releasing the triangle pyramid, it was indeed a fun concept.
