QW 
Try QuakeWorld if you want deathmatch.
Physics might be a little different and they've added the concept of matches, but otherwise the gameplay should still be similar.
Except that you'll get owned. A lot.

that said, deathmatch spots on a single player map is generally futile. deathmatch wants many connections, loops, and alternative routes. single player, on the other hand, is typically rather linear (even with creative-but-annoying use of doors, or deathmatch-only passages).
By all means add a few spots, but I wouldn't waste too much time over it, unless you're really trying to make it a deathmatch-only map.
If the map really is large, it might be more useful to just block off the more annoying/narrow corridory bits and constrain the deathmatch players to the more arenaey areas. Yay teleporters. 
 
Why do some people NOT play games? I always hear about this question from the opposite side...

This. 
Flying Car? 
Okay, not quite, but close

Final Compile... 
it's happening right now! :D 
 
spiney: kind of cool, but I immediately expected the wheels to rotate down to form ducted fans, disappointed that they didn't (though it appears impossible based on the wheen drive mechanism.) 
Lol... 
I posted my new map over an hour ago, I was hoping a couple of people would have played it by now but I guess you'll have to wait until an admin wakes up ;) 
 
metl: I had the same thing, kind of a shame hah, I'm sure it's not that way for a good reason though.

All my friends who don't play games just seem to see it as a waste of time. Most of my friends do play games, at least a bit. Now it's like reading. Some people go deep but most are just reading like, 50 shades of gray or Tom Clancy or whatever. Quake = David Foster Wallace, obviously. 
Friends... 
When I was a player, I didn't have any friends. When I was a mapper, I didn't have any friends. Now that I have stopped both, I don't have any friends.

I now spend most of my time in front of a computer screen trying to work out why I don't have any friends.

I am sure that if I work hard enough I will find the answer.

That's a very generous review of FMB-BDG2 over in Quaddicted. Thank you. 
My Wife 
Doesn't play games and can't understand it.

But she loved Prince of Persia Warrior Within. 
Streetfighter Motion Capture WTF 
Necros 
I can't argue with those who'd rather be out and about than playing games.

However, I might have a few choice words for the people that scoff at me for playing games, but who themselves spend the same amount of time watching shite on the tv. 
No Problem 
Thanks for all the maps over the years 
Adverts 
Generally I hate them but for some reason this is just right! 
Who Wants To Play It? 
Demo Chat 
Any idea why when recording a demo in quake using the chat function no longer pauses the game? 
 
Cocerello: Hahaha, that made my day. Thanks :')

On another note: does anyone know if there's a good documentairy on the history of computer graphics somewhere? I search from time to time but can't seem to find anything substantial.
I like geeking out to retrospects and postmortems on GDC vault and watching stuff like King Of Kong, but there doesn't seem to be anything with the focus on CG in film since the early seventies onwards. I heard Siggraph did something like that for it's 25 year anniversary but I can't seem to find anything online. 
 
Is the last map of CZG's terra unfinished? Was there ever a finished version?
