Quake3World

I would like to propose my own mapping forum for the list. It's in German, but I think I'm not the only one with German as his mother tongue who's reading the list The main site is here, the tutorials subforum can be found there.

EDIT: The forum no longer exists. All tutorials have been moved to my blog.

Did some major fixes/changes where needed, mass pruning of the thread of all non link-related material. Incorporated links that were later listed, the ones that are still listed are ones I haven't gotten to yet.

Let's try and keep to only posting links please. If please doesn't work and you post garbage, I will nuke your post.

I will just add this here:

http://q3a.ath.cx/?editing=radiant_tutorials

Thanks Bliccer, I will get to finishing editing this thread sometime soon I hope, and will add that to the list.

Well you could also add the models of q3a.ath.cx to the models section.

I found this: http://www.webalice.it/bancala/files_easygen.htm
And I think Terragen is missing, no?

Thanks to Internet Archive, I found a link to the ik2k texture pack! (In fact, it's more "deduced the link from other sources" but... yeah!)

IK2k texture pack by Iikka "Fingers" Keränen:

I got a small list of links here: http://cityy.explicits.de/?page=q3links

For those of you that map for CTF, it may be useful.

Hi

I know this is 2012, but I was wondering if anyone started a modern compilation/archive of the Quake 3 artist textures from the glory days. I skimmed over the links and I noticed the vast majority are now dead, which is a bit saddening to me because a lot of those texture works were good stuff that I used (and gave credit to) during my editing days. It seems only few resources, like SimonOC and evillair are still ticking, but the planetgamespy hosted webs are now gone (or are they?) along with their associated fileplanet download links. Would it be wrong to archive/upload texture pacts without the artist permission (but giving credit of course) for downloading posterity and future level-editing endeavors? Essentially like a directory listing copies of texture pacts that can no longer be downloaded that can be downloaded, for non-commercial use.

Gamespy/Fileplanet blew a fart and decided to stop hosting sites (including Quake3World, we had to get intervention from id Software to secure the domain and cloned to our own server). As a result, a lot of Q3 resources were blatantly killed off and lost unless the artist has their own site for hosting (i.e. Sock/Evillair).

The commonly used license for almost all texture packs allow for electronic distribution with attribution, so it's not usually an issue to upload them somewhere for download.

If you have a large collection of stuff that needs archiving, I have a large amount of storage available. Or you can get in contact with the people running Worldspawn Archives or LvL and see if they are willing to host it.

Cheers.

P.S. Curious, did you used to post here way back when? Perhaps under a different name?

I frequented another Quake3 editing site that bite the dust many years ago. I think it was Map-Craft....?

I'm kicking myself for not d/ling many of the texture packs before the sites went down. I guess it's lucky that sites like LvL is still going, and a lot of those textures were put to use. I don't have a strong collection, but I have a few smaller sets.

I still have a copy of the ik2k texture pack if you guys want it.

We Make Maps is apparently going away.

anyone else got most of this side models http://www.wemakemaps.com/

post some models i found have post later a couple, 3skullslight crucified imperium mrctele bloodstone o3-angel odium poisonstone storch ts-torch01 wallportal all in 1 rar pw 989 http://www.mediafire.com/?j34ens4pr2lzggr

I agree with Echoman, we should create a website to put any kind of useful content that could disappear, maps, textures, tutorials ... Or just make regular backups of entire pages with files and make them accessible from a web, which reminds me that there is the wayback machine, but i dont know if it would be better to have a dedicated web.

post more models i have at my quake 3 files . atlantis,bfp,cityhall,drola,el_tele,fountainhead,GR_trees,imperium,o3-angel,satellite,spotlamp,telestecki,televised,vault,zeus all in 1 rar pw989 http://www.mediafire.com/?h56cbg0kay2c5ga

I got in touch with Bill Brooks, he has the wemakemaps site backed up and will transfer it to me so I can host it. It will take some time since he's rather busy with his own stuff at the moment. At least we can all rest assured that we have everything archived and will be available in the future.

Someone poke me in a couple of months from now in case we (Bill and I) both forget about this.

/me pokes!

@Syphonfilter .... I know it's over two years since you posted those rar files... But thank you so much for doing so. I'd lost quite a few of those after a hard disk crash.

What happened to cityy's sites? They're not working!

I just moved to a new host. I'm working on getting all my LD stuff back up but it's progressing rather slowly.

Okay, looking forward complete migration
