tried 7-zip too (9.20 which is the latest stable version) ... says it's not valid.

It's bad enough how sock always forces his settings onto the users, there's absolutely no need to follow his example. This one even changes the resolution for no reason. Fuck it!

Is this compressed with 7zip using the "ultimate" compression preset for zip by any chance? Should always only use "maximum" for compatibility.

#24 posted by metlslime on 2014/09/14 08:59:45

okay, false alarm, the zip format opens fine in filzip now. I just had to re-download it a couple of times. Maybe the download got corrupted.

maybe re-download? I've unzipped it with 7-zip 9.20, the "unzip" command-line tool, and the OS X built-in unzip utility.
The zip I have is 85,407,483 bytes.

Worry not, proper download link is here: https://www.quaddicted.com/filebase/rrp.zip

It's a standard zip btw.

I Erased The Beta Folder And It Said "666 Elements Deleted"

Wow, that's quite impressive! I finished Hrimfaxi's map on skill 3 and died 5 times. Hunters are really brutal!

Gonna post demos later for all the maps.

Uhm

is there something wrong with your map ijed, or is the player being halfway lowered into the ground right from the start intentional?

#30 posted by Spirit on 2014/09/14 11:34:05

Intentionally, save a lot, don't bother about demo recording and enjoy the ride!

Ijed: holy fucking crap, that's all I can say. Not too keen on the first part of the level but the rest... wow, what a ride!

#33 posted by Spirit on 2014/09/14 14:07:19

Now available in the Quake Injector!

Quaddicted has a bit of trouble at the moment, sorry. If the person who is currently mirroring lots of it is reading this, please stop and send me a mail. We can find a better way. ;)

Oh Shit, Son.

MFX: Damn, that was very very good as well! Best architecture of the pack, hands down. It never felt repetitive and some rooms are really really impressive! I found some other secrets off-camera including the credits map.

Boring skill 3 demo pack: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fxms66mcjz66lql/demos.zip?dl=0

Overall this pack was great. Definitely felt like Warpspasm 2 in some aspects. :-)
Some areas were really nail-bitingly hard on skill 3 and I died many times!

Thanks For The Demos!

And glad you liked it :)

YOU GUYS ARE FUCKING GENIUSES !

#37 posted by Barnak on 2014/09/14 17:17:20

I'm currently playing a second map (mfx, I think), and everything are simply FUCKING AWESOME !

Dammit, how many maps are there in this pack ?!?

The atmosphere is so strong, geez, Quake1 still beats all the "modern" games I tried up to now (especially Team Fortress 2 and Borderlands).

You guys are Gods and I'm a shit fly !

Where's The Nightmare Button/slipgate ?

#38 posted by Barnak on 2014/09/14 18:42:14

And WTF with the telefrag map !? I'm always at the floor level like a dwarf !

Yep

#39 posted by ijed on 2014/09/14 19:35:36

Your legs were ripped off by the teleporter, hence telefragged :D

You have to avoid enemies until you can find a way to get your legs back.

No Legs !?

#40 posted by Barnak on 2014/09/14 19:38:58

This game style sucks !

And where's the fuckin' nightmare button in the start map ?

Legs Healing

#41 posted by Barnak on 2014/09/14 19:58:44

I've found the legs healing, but geez this is un-quake (but ok, maybe it is, I don't know since I'm just a shit fly).

So, is there a nightmare button in the start map or not !?

#42 posted by skacky on 2014/09/14 20:40:53

Yes. It's located in the cave area.

The Telefrag Destruction Sequence

#43 posted by Barnak on 2014/09/14 20:52:23

This is very "Aliens" like. But how the hell do you escape this base !?

This level is truely madness.

Nightmare Level...

#44 posted by Barnak on 2014/09/14 21:10:20

I've found the god'dammit nightmare button, but I had to use noclip to find it.

How the hell are we supposed to find this, since the first step to locate it is in a pitch black place !? Then you escalate that long scale just to find a secret plateform, and you still need to find the secret cave which hides the button.

I shoulnd't have to use noclip to find this.

I think this is unreasonably difficult. But then what do I know, as a shit fly !?

#45 posted by ijed on 2014/09/14 21:50:41

Is traditionally hard to find, otherwise it'd be called 'easy' L:

In other news, there are so many little bugs scattered throughout the pack, especially in my map, its not even funny. Worse, almost all are things I already fixed multiple times...

About telefragging: again, I make no apologies for chopping your legs off.

Still Playing...

#46 posted by metlslime on 2014/09/14 21:56:12

I found the nightmare button without cheating, FWIW.

Also: i'm only halfway through the first map (120 monsters out of 256 or something!!!)

Architecture and detail is pretty great, but in that one room with 10000 wpolys, my computer finally shows its age, and i only get ~11fps. I guess i'll have to start playing doom maps now that my computer is no longer fast enough to play quake :(
