A new addon pack WTF-Q3A number 2 is being under development. 3 mappers are already working on it: ButterB, Menthol and Q at lvlmaker.co.uk. Here are images of map already well none, now in WTF-Q3A version.Map WTF-Q3A-33 by ButterB :
Map WTF-Q3A-34 by Menthol :
Any one interested in participating in this pack can let me know through my e-mail address: berneyboy@hotmail.com
Maybe you want one of your map to be converted into WTF-Q3A or you want to create a new map. Before starting a new map, contact me to make sure together it will fit the new pack. Thanks BerneyBoy http://www.planetquake.com/wtf-q3a/

Q, you make me think about the deadline for the addon pack 2. Very simple, no date for now. We want to have the time to do things right.Forgot also to mention the following link for mappers who want information on how to do WTF-Q3A maps (SDK) : http://www.planetquake.com/wtf-q3a/sdk.htm Thanks

Hi Q,From what I have seen that you have done already, I can only trust your imagination. I'm sure to be amazed with what ever you will come up with. By the way... there is already a BFG & battle suits map ready. Really fun those maps. By the way... as a member of the team, you already received an e-mail with a link to see the first beta versions... BerneyBoy

I have a good suggestion for an eventual interested WTF-Q3A mapper. I have seen this map in Unreal Tournament 2003 but I don't know the name of the mapper who did it. It is a terra style map, very simple and very nice to look at. It has 2 floors, the center point is on second level on a bridge. Here are 2 pictures to see this map.

I found the file on the Web and I put it available temporarily on fileplanet, for those who have UT-2003. http://www.fileplanet.com/dl.aspx?/planetquake/berneyboy/ctf-greed.zip
If a Quake 3 version of this map would be done, it would be fun to play in it in WTF-Q3A.

That UT2K3 map looks like it would be right up my alley. Alas, work is keeping me far too busy to work on my current projects as much as I would like to, let alone start any new ones. Maybe in September. Eat my soot!.

Hi Fjoggs,Screenshots from your map look very interesting. No doubt that the community will appreciate and enjoy your map. When I look at it, personnaly I like the style and look of it. I can see one difficulty to incorporate in the pack. WTF-Q3A maps are usually very small or, if not, they are then open so we can see the other players quickly. In your map, there are a lot of corridors so we can not see other players as quickly and this is something we tend to avoid in WTF-Q3A. If you would agree to do a smaller version of the map with two bases and only a few corridors, keeping the style, I would be pleased to incorporate it in the pack. Through my e-mail, there is another mapper who came up with a large map different than yours, but with a very interesting style as well. I'm sending him the same comments and request.

10 days since I announce the new pack in preparation. It's time now to see where we are. Here is the list of interested mappers up to now (names in bold already submit a beta map): - Agent Orange - BerneyBoy - ButterB - Fjoggs - IMMORTAL - Menthol - Moth Map WTF-Q3A-36 by Agent Orange
 It seems that I have difficulties with my e-mail service. It is out of my control. You can use this one instead: berneyboy AT planetquake.com Still waiting for someone interested to do the map style UT2003 mentionned earlier in the post. I uploaded another version of the beta. Map 35 changed and map from Agent Orange is included, http://www.fileplanet.com/dl.aspx?/planetquake/berneyboy/wtf-q3a_beta01.zip An important thing is that the Addon pack-2 is the last version that will be made for Quake III Arena.

Hey BerneyBoy, I might be willing to tackle that UT2003 map. I need a change from the long term projects that I've been working on. I never liked the layout of the original when playing it, so I'll probably do a heavily modified version (limiting line of sight, hinting and better playablility). I'll see what I can come up with in the coming week.

Hi obsidian, I'm happy that you accepted the challenge. The fact that you are going to create a version accordint to your own perception is very interesting. I can't wait to see how it will be. BerneyBoy

Don't be sorry. You have already contributed 5 maps up to now. You were one of the first ones to join the project in the first place and you guided me to maintain high standards. Thank you for all you brought into the project. The Q3 community will miss you. BerneyBoy

Hi,I made small modifications to map WTF-Q3A-35. A new version of the beta is available : http://www.fileplanet.com/dl.aspx?/planetquake/berneyboy/wtf-q3a_beta01.zip I received 2 emails asking how to link all spawn points with a single weapon. This refers to the SDK text and it is not obvious for everybody. The best is to have a map file as an exemple, which is the case with map WTF-Q3A-35 : http://www.fileplanet.com/dl.aspx?/planetquake/berneyboy/wtf-q3a-35-src.zip BerneyBoy
