Func_Msgboard: New Q1SP: Menkalinan

Posted by PuLSaR on 2004/07/16 11:27:27

This is a large scaled Q1SP map in Egyptian style (I used incredible Sock's Egyptian set).
There are lots of traps and ambushes for you, so don't forget quicksaving regularly, especially if you think that you can beat it on hard :)

Feedback and first run demos are always welcome.

I wish PulSar would come back or would have at least announced retirement. I still feel guilty about taking so long to release Arcanum which, containing his final released map, took an extra 2 years to come out because of me.

I Also Would Like Him To Return

Isn't he into HL2 mapping or something now?

Oh Boy

I remember wasting hours on this one. Awesome map.

I had a poster of this map on my wall for a while. Loved this back then!

...one of my all-time favourites. All around superb map. Wish Pulsar made more.

Was good. I have played it before too.

I come to like smaller maps with 50 or 60 monsters.

Not quite as intense as Anhk's map, but still very enjoyable :) I died once, due to my curiosity of falling into traps.

Skill 2 Demo

noclipped to avoid 1 stupid death.
152 monsters killed
1/7 secrets.

Have to agree with Shamb that the secrets in this are particularly tricky as everything looks like a secret. Not so much the texture set's fault - more due to architecture style, rather inchoate visual language... maybe also due to lighting - lighting cues could have been used more.
Lighting of course is crazy flat. minlight is super high.
All that said, significant meaty gameplay and architecture with great infights, arenas and what not. I'd forgotten how fun this map is!
