HIFEVER'S QUAKE DOWNLOAD MAPS PAGE

DOWNLOAD'EM MAPS AND LETS FRAG!!!!!

WARNING: Please read below before you download and start screwing around with your files. I am NOT an expert in paks and stuff, and am not responsible for your crashes or otherwise messed up painkeep directory.

Although there are only 20 maps in the HUB, there are over 40 maps in the downloads below, which may be played in the servers too. I just linked the best 20 to the HUB.

The following are the files needed:

fribpk.zip newpk999.zip otherpk.zip newhub.zip newpk.zip pkmaps.zip pkmaps2.zip pakexpl.zip

PLEASE READ: Updated 9/24/99- I have finished 12 more maps and "fixed" the HUB to play these maps. I will NOT painkeep any more maps as I truly believe that the maps currently in the HUB are so great, that there is no need to improve. Not even one of them suck.

I must give full credit to these great map makers that have allowed to convert these maps, and I did so with their permission and in the case of Mr.Fribbles under close supervision by him. Any modifications to those maps must be authorized by them and just because I was able to modify them, does not mean anybody else can, so please ASK before touching any maps, I'm sure they would agree, but it's courteous to ask. I have also included the original txt files when I had them, in case you don't see your name here (authors), it will be in the txt files, and please e-mail me if you see your map in the bunch so I can give proper credit.

Mr Fribbles maps: From his electronic fish series: efdm9pk, efdm10pk, efdm11pk, and another of his maps frbwb1pk. Download here. Truly remarkable maps.
Other maps: With Authorization from "Rocketman" : Borg02pk (Im a trekkie, beam me up to this borg ship Scotty), tree.bsp, and one that I had released previously, but had no knowledge it was his, unrealpk.bsp. With authorization from Rudolf Kremers (Borsatto), I painkeeped Summerpk.bsp.
Unauthorized maps: Although I have unsuccesfully attempted to contact other authors, I have gotten invalid e-mails or don't even know who authors are, but I tried to convert these maps in good taste. If anybody know where to contact them, or if any of these maps was made by YOU, please contact me to give proper credit or remove.
Messypk.bsp- Painkeeped version of A. Lorenzini's "The messy base"- I tried two e-mail adresses unsuccesfully.
Doom levels by "Hawkmoon" and "Borys98"- Attempted to contact them unsuccesfully.
Forgepk.bsp Painkeeped version of "Forge of Repent" map- Contacted several web pages, no one knew who author was :(.
Dimepk.bsp- As above, could not find out who author of Dime.bsp was. I just painkeeped it.

Well, project is over, I have finished the HUB to play our maps. There are a couple of things you NEED to know in order to play these on a server. IT's EASY, just relax and understand the following concepts:
HUB is start.bsp, unfortunately the regular painkeep HUB and Quo's HUB are also named start.bsp because it's the one painkeep recognizes as HUB. Therefore in order to play these maps on a server you must do the following.

Get pakexplorer
Back up pak0.pak from quake\painkeep in case you screw up. (IMPORTANT)
Open up pak0.pak (from quake\painkeep dir.) in pakexplorer, click on the maps folder.
Find start.bsp on the maps folder and right click on it, choose rename- rename it start.old
close the explorer (now you're half way done)
If you play Quo's rune, you should have pak1.pak, rename that to pak1.quo
Copy THIS new HUB (8/12/99) to your painkeep\maps directory (READ BELOW!! before you do).
YOU'RE DONE!!!!!!!

Now the problem is if you wanna play the old painkeep or Quo's runes again. You can play the maps just fine, but when it goes to HUB you would crash out of the game, so here's my suggestion:
To play regular Painkeep- I rename pak0.pak (the one where you changed start.bsp to start.old) to pak0.hif (hifever:), then copy the backed up pak0.pak (remember I told ya to back it up) to the painkeep directory, and that should do it.
To play Quo's pk runes: Just rename pak1.quo to pak1.pak, and you should be fragging in the runes world.

Where to play these here maps??- Well I have a crappy cable modem server going sometimes for testing, called hifever. Find it with gamespy or kali under painkeep tabs. If you wanna setup a server with them, please do, we need a REAL server, mine sux.

UPDATE 7/16/99- CerBerus.UNO has been awsome enuff' to get a server going for us, the name of the server is Da Dawg House New Pk and you can find it with Kali or Quakespy. The IP adress is 208.135.166.200:27500. Everybody please give a round of applause to the one and only CERBERUS!!!! and to Sinbad.UNO who hooked me up with him to make it happen.

What you need to download:

pakexplorer: If you didn't do it already from link above.
The new HUB- If you didn't download already above.- DO NOT unzip in your painkeep\maps directory if you have another start.bsp until you rename your existing start.bsp to start.old or something, or my start.bsp will write over it.
NEW 7/16/99: Newest maps that truly rock, Quadcity (E4m3pk), dm4pk and dm6pk (newpk.zip). Wanna see some screenshots of'em newer maps?, cool, follow me please.
The newesr (8/12/99) maps if you didn't already do it from above in Mr.Fribbles maps or other pkmaps.
Download pkmaps.zip and pkmaps2.zip- (dammit, couldn't put all in one file cause it wouldn't upload) For those of you technically challenged people, if you don't know how to get these maps to play in quake- YOU SUCK. Unzipp'em in the quake\painkeep\maps directory, then if ya wanna play single player, say for example doompark, and you have glquake, then just type:

glquake -game painkeep +map doompark

If you just wanted to browse in deathmatch mode with no monsters, then just type:
glquake -game painkeep +map doompark -listen 8

UPDATED 8/12/99: Please take note of the following (or print) so that you don't get lost in the hub, and also note that I removed the airfist from next to the gravity in the hub so that it's more difficult to get it, hehhh. The airfist now resides on the bottom floor. How to read the following?? simple: painkeep -- dimepk means dimepk is in the location where you would normally choose the map "painkeep" on regular pk.
painkeep-- redlitpk- Small and fun remake of Duke3D redlight district map
pk0--------- rapturpk- Rapture1 map- Totally bestial.
pk1--------- punishpk- None stop fun.
pk2--------- shroudpk- Shroud1 map, good looking texture and layout
pk3--------- d2map7pk- Doom2 map 7 with a twist- Should be awsome for 3-5 players.
pk4--------- messypk (Really nice and balanced small level, but not fast paced like say pk2)
pk5--------- witch2pk (this is the fast paced one of the bunch.)
pk6--------- basic4pk (this one and fribs efdm10pk are my favorites)
pk7--------- Fribwbpk (small to medium quadless level, good for strategy, well balanced)
pk8--------- rfpk (This one is very nice looking, good for 4-6 ppl)
pk9--------- q1edgepk (another level slayer sent, painkeep conversion of DM1 Quake2 level)
pk10------- efdm10pk (Looks awsome with hexen like textures and plays even better, fast and balanced)
pk11------- ztndm3pk (painkeeped version of popular ztndm3 map, lots and lots of fun)
pk12-------efdm11pk (Yup, this one is really nice, pure skill will rule on this one)
pk13------- lobstrpk (an absolute blast, just can't stop laughing when I play this one, gotta fry yer butt to get stuff)
pk14------- dm6pk (I had never played it until recently started wondering the "deathmatch" servers and got hooked on it.)
pk15------- neodmpk (hell, this is the map that started it all in DOOM, e1m1 quaked and painkeeped)
pk16------- efdm9pk (similar to efdm11pk textures, should be LOTS of fun)
pk17------- ztndm5pk (real nice too, lots of action)
pk18------- Quadcity (Like with DM6, I have been playing E4M3 a lot on deathmatch servers, it's so much fun that I painkeepd it)
