info
This was one of my favorite maps way back when Quake ruled. So I thought
it would be a shame not to have a Q3A version. After finishing the map
I found out that Slomoe had already made a conversion. His version is
much closer to the original (actually nearly indistinguishable). My
version has more eye candy and is a bit more spacious.
Slomoe's version can be downloaded from here:
Quakefour.net
Just in case if you wish to compare the two and decide which one to
play regularly, if at all :-)
