If the file quake\arena\pak1.pak already exists, rename the .pak file to the next logical number. e.g. If c:\quake\arena\pak1.pak exists, rename it to c:\quake\arena\pak2.pak !!NOTE!! .pak file numbers need to be sequential, this is important alternative: unpak the contents of this pak1.pak file to your quake\id1\maps folder using an unpaker like PakExplorer v1.12 (from www2.telefragged.com/quakestuff) how to use: start up a rocket arena game. (see rocket arena readme.txt for more info on this) at the console (press ~) type the following map xxx (press enter) (press ~) replace xxx with the map you wish to play how to use: exec tigpakqw.cfg (for qw server) this will run all the levels from the .pak map list: tigrarena tigra2 tigra3 tigra4 tigra5 Rocket Arena: Webpage http://www.planetquake.com/servers/arena ================================================ info this Rocket Arena map pak was made from a series of maps that i started to make that could be played on any pc that could play quake. i found that a lot of the RA maps had stupidly high r_speeds. something that is not very good for net games and also something that was *turning* people off RA, a quake mod i love :] i see the waiting room as an important part of a RA level. all of these levels have a rich, detailed or large area for spectators. some of the r_speeds may be high in these areas, but as no fighting (besides axe attacks) takes part in these areas this is not a problem at all no r_speeds above 500 in any of the arena areas (that i know of). most are a lot lower (like between 200 to 360). some levels have transparent water, most do not. ================================================ construction base: a few maps use a section here or there from some of my dm levels. editor: WorldCraft (1.6a) by Valve other progs: wqbsp (v1.65) - Ken Alverson (KenA@TSO.Cin.IX.Net) ArghLite 2.0 and q2towad by Tim Wright (argh@ntplx.net) Newwad1.3 - (originally pcx2wad 0.98 by Daniel Gilliland); Modified by Christopher Wise know bugs: none, but there is a type'o on the tigra3.bsp title, its says arena 2 but should be arena 3, :] build time: tigarena - 19th of April 1998 tigra5 - 23rd of June 1998 everything else between those dates. ____________ Rocket Arena Title : Final Arena Filename : farena12.zip Version : 1.20 Date : 12-8-97 Author : David 'crt' Wright Email : wrightd@stanford.edu Webpage : http://www.planetquake.com/servers/arena any problems email me any enquires email me any questions email me ================================================ tested with the following bot Omicron Bots (v1.02) - http://www.planetquake.com/ramshackle (Omicron Bots support Rocket Arena) ================================================ thanx to ...
