INSTRUCTIONS:
Open the .zip file and select EXTRACT. Make
certain that you have the “use folder names” option selected. Extract all files
into your main Quake III Arena game folder. The paths will send the files to the
correct locations (all except the four batch files go into the missionpack
folder). These maps are designed for use with Quake III: Team Arena. If you do
not own the Team Arena add-on for Quake III, these maps will lose functionality
in the form of missing textures, items, and game play options. The server
batchfiles enclosed that will allow you to set up dedicated servers that will
run this map set.
If you downloaded the original release
version of the Team Arena Mappak 1, running this install will put the most up
to date versions of the maps and server files in the correct directories. You
will need to manually remove the file hal9000_ta.pk3 from your missionpack
directory.
WARNING! These server scripts will
delete any 'q3config.cfg' files you have any your Quake 3 directory. We
strongly recommend backing those particular files up in another directory
before running the server batch file scripts.
NOTE: These server scripts assume
that the server is running with at least 96 megabytes of RAM. If your computer
has only 64 megabytes of RAM, you will need to edit the Set RAM line of each
script to 56.
A full readme file is located inside the
enclosed .pk3 file for each map.
POST PRODUCTION NOTES:
* The included server batch file scripts assume that the server
computer is running with at least 96 megabytes of RAM. If your computer has
only 64 megabytes of RAM, you will need to edit the Set RAM line of each script
to 56.
* Japanese Castles TA (japanc_ta.bsp) does not
have a spawn spot for free for all or tournament play. If you start the game
from the console, set the game type to one of the four team gamestyles first
(/g_gametype #). 4 = CTF, 5 = Oneflag, 6 = Overload, 7 = Harvester.
* Crossed Paths v.TA (dbox2_ta.bsp) does not
appear in the Overload game menu. All the entities are in place for it, but the
arena file is miswritten. You may start the game from the console (see above to
set game type) or connect to it on-line with no problem.
