Heya Primal. Thanks for the welcome and sorry, no cool maps to share. The only full map I ever finished was a small 4 player DM map that shipped with Worldcraft 1.6a. Also included the source files and 3 other maps from the rest of ELM (4 of us in ELM at the start...5 later on...then 4).

It's funny you should mention the chain-map project because I worked on a chainmap project for Q2 ages ago. Was at PlanetQuake's Quartography page but it no longer exists so I can't share any pics of my contribution. I started the chain and oversaw continuity (oversaw is putting it mildly). Once I've tweaked DP and some mods to my liking I'll take a crack at, at least, making a room or something. Something to stretch my legs anyway and just have some fun. If it goes further, so be it.

I've realized I never posted in this thread before.

I'm an engine coder, and only play single player. Worked on the Makaqu engine, in the JoyMenu mod, and in some smaller projects. I'm also a bit addicted to Quake's software renderer.

Also, I like how creative the people here is, which is my main reason for posting. Sharing knowledge is always good, and hopefully I can contribute a bit.

English isn't my native language, but I'm always looking forward to improving it.

@mankrip

Thanks for the post! It's always good to see an engine coder than can help with code advice and suggestions! Your engine ran on Dreamcast? Very cool!

Hi, I'm some dude who wants to learn modding but only made 1 or 2 test rooms in Serious Editor 1 so far with not much knowledge on how games work.

I want to ask you guys; From a neutral and unbiased standpoint, why map for Quake instead of DN3D, Half-Life, Serious Sam or even Quake 2 and Quake 3? What are the pros and cons of mapping for Quake?
