will upload demos later, but as I said in demo, not for me. I am a mediocre player and an absolutely terrible speedrunner trickjumper etc, so not my jam. but thanks for contributing anyway!
Thx For Feeedback

If mandel even says its hard (he's a better player then me imo)i geuss i have to make it a bit easier even. Its kind of hard to feel how hard these thigns are to other people becasue of a coupel things:
-I playtest the map a lot while mapping so by the time its finished i already know the standard moves pretty well.
- a small difference in skill can make somethign impossible to one, compeltly boring to someone else.
-physics challenges might be different on other clients and maybe even still slightly depending on hardware
But I'm no tgiving up yet to make a map like this wich can be both and fun and challenging for the whole family:)
Mandel im going to pretend i never read that question, I was one of those few in the quake peleton who never doped* and to start cheating when the scene is near dead would be strange.
The big Epo era kinda is the same as the highdays of quake1 speedrunning, and i think quite some people visited suspicious doctors:)

I tried to run it but I had to use savegames to get a complete demo. Guess one reason may be I didn't even have a bind for that weapon before your map forced me to make one...

I couldn't upload my map for SM170, due to the loose of Internet connection for days. It is OK if i submit it for a subsequent Speedmap Pack?
I'll go now to try those three maps. I'm interested into seeing how much they differ from mine.

After watching your demo of your map i couldn't believe what i was seeing. You are a GOD of Quake.
I was recording a DEMO when playing it, but passed on that after the 10th minute of attempts. The map is great and i like challenge, but for me it will probably take me hours to complete. Good thing there is a teleport at the bottom, if it were a instant death fall that would piss many players.
Getting to the third ''island'' were easy, but getting to the fourth took me at least 5 minutes. I almost don't know a thing about jumping tricks: i can't use bunny-jumping and i'm bad at rocket/grenade jumping; so i had to find the tricks intuitively. I suppose someone expert at jumping tricks could finish this in less than 10 minutes.
No Screenshots ?

only negke sent me a map this week (I didn't get around to one myself)... and it was technically for last week's theme!!!
http://www.quaketastic.com/upload/files/single_player/speed_maps/sm170_negke.zip
so... I guess sm171 is now "Bricks", due Mon Jun 3rd. Any 'big' maps submitted late will be included then too.

I want to make sure I hit a wide variety of themes. Sometimes they are gameplay themes, sometimes they are style themes... this is a texture theme.

I'll see what happens.
I have something started for BIG but it's pretty gross right now - no lighting etc.
I will work on it a bit and see what happens!
GF/kid out of town for the week, but I'm working A LOT.

Scampie, could you please continue the good old tradition of adding readme files to the packs? Those include things like the theme. Check any old pack for a template where you can just edit a few lines.
