@hgdagon

Did you get the After Shock Deluxe?

If not, I have a copy!

I'm a little late to the party, but I've put together a catalog of 75 Quake addon CDs (at current count).

I've also included full file listings on each cd (where available), as well as file listings within zips, paks, exes, etc.

• https://QuakeDiscs.com

The current focus is Quake only (i.e. Quake 1). The catalog is searchable and includes CD covers for almost all CDs.

I'm finding the site super useful for finding old file releases for various Quake archive projects.

For reference (perhaps this thread is still here in another 10 years), here's the full list of titles catalog (note, some are translations):

• Abyss of Pandemonium
• Action Ware 10 Extra Levels For Quake

I'm still adding CDs all the time, but the pace is slowing. Perhaps we can find the end of this thing? I'd be surprised if there is another ~75 CDs to discover and add.

Some CDs file listings are still missing.

If you have mad leet haxor CD finding skills (especially the German and Russian CDs) we'd be grateful.

I recall the Aftershock cover... I owned it at one point. I don't see any evidence I have any files from it still, unfortunately. I don't recall it being noteworthy, but it can't be worse than some of these!

I took a quick peek on ebay and found Q2 Juggernaut:link

Weren't Duke Nukem, Doom, and the Quakes all banned under that German Anti-Violent Video Game law?

They weren't banned, they were "indexed on list A". Which means you weren't allowed to advertise them and stores were only allowed to sell them after you asked for them and they checked your id.

But as these addon CDs didn't contain the games themselves, stores were allowed to sell them - BUT they often "censored" the game names, to prevent them from being considered advertising.
You can see this on the "ULTRA Level Addon" and "Universe of Levels" covers hgdagon posted.

There were titles that were "properly" banned (indexed on list B), like Wolfenstein for example. Duke, Doom and Quaker weren't. They just weren't allowed to be sold to minors and they couldn't be advertised. That's it.

To be put on list B and therefore be banned, the game would have to contain unconstitutional symbols and/or forbidden forms of pornography. German indexing system actually is pretty sensible most of the time, I think.

Hi everyone at quakeone! I'm collecting Quake addon CD's for several years already. There are still some CD images I haven't been able to find till now. So if anyone could provide me with those, I'd be very glad Here's the list of Quake (I-II) related CD images I have. If you don't have any of those I have, you're welcome to request it from me. Not the original games, of course (but you definitely already have them anyway!)...

Interesting you had those CDs in German.

Weren't Duke Nukem, Doom, and the Quakes all banned under that German Anti-Violent Video Game law?

I also have v1.0 and 2.0 of Shrak, 2.0 has a lot more data.

I have a ton of these CD's too, but it's too hard to tell what is stuff gleaned from BBS's and IDstuff ftp and which is commercially made so I won't share them.

I wouldn't want Clones of the ones with audio tracks anyways and they probably are full of errors and have no offset correction. Then again I am a purist, and want properly preserved things... there are guides to doing it yourself on redump.org forums.

I also collect shovelware discs for most other games like duke nukem 3d, doom, etc...

[Inkshock]

I just recently got the "Quake It" addon CD that hgdagon also lists. Mine says "Volume 1" on the cover - did they ever make other volumes?
This one again contains unbelievable ~25 megs of... "things"

I'm pretty sure that mostly everyone has malice, official mission packs, etc.

Yes, I got those, and I now own two different versions of Shrak, just because it's such a fantastic game
I guess it's US/EU version, I'm not quite sure and I haven't invested any time in looking it up.

There seems to misunderstanding about my intentions, so I'll make it as clear as I can.

Don't worry about thing until you make someone jealous- THEN your in for some trouble. Then your a target for these kids. You don't need to explain yourself except to mom :-)
Now Majority is Shareware and Abandoned anyways! With that said- that's the END of worrying.

I understood you it's very clear but just be "on your guard" anyway (like right now hehe).


BTW

If I could "share" anything interesting with you I would have... I like your efforts to get these special packages.

[hgdagon]

providing a menu system would be such a complicated algorythm....

Even I can create menu for a Level CD!!!!

that it would destroy the levels

[hgdagon]

There seems to misunderstanding about my intentions, so I'll make it as clear as I can.
I said I will not share averything listed!!!! I'm pretty sure that mostly everyone has malice, official mission packs, etc. Unofficial mission packs (aftershock, dark hour, pc zone cover cd, etc.) and rarities (Deathmatch maker, Toolit for Quake II, etc.) are the ones I mean by "willing to share" E.G. I listed the original WinQuake and Quake II 3,20, but it doesn't mean I intend to provide links those. I don't think there's any point sharing the originals, 'cause who would visit a forum about quake if he doesn't have the game?
I hope this elliminates all questions.

Hi

Hgdagon I just want to let you know here at quakeone.com people get crazy very quick about "illegal" downloads/stuff.

I just want to prevent you you can get very disapointed while your intentions are very noble.

[Inkshock]

You list "Malice" in there which I'm pretty sure is neither "abandonware", nor "legal to download". It was developed by Ratloop, they still exist.
Just because something isn't sold anymore doesn't make it legal to just go ahead and download it.

Anyway, I started collecting these in original form and I own the possibly worst addon-CD ever: "Quakestar" from 1996.
It says on the back cover that it contains new levels, new monsters and editors. Which isn't true, all it contains are 25 megs of uncompressed maps. No editors, nothing.

And the biggest joke is that in the readme file it states that the company who made it couldn't provide any kind of interface or menu for installing the maps, because - and that is the reason they give... I still can't believe it... because *takes breath* providing a menu system would be such a complicated algorythm, that it would destroy the levels....

Here's the original quote from the readme (complete with typos intact):

HINWEIS
=======

Leider konnte bei dieser CD-ROM kein bergreifendes Menssystem
gestaltet werden, da dies sonst durch eine kompliziertes Algo-
rythmussystem die Levels zerst”ren wrde. Folgen Sie deshalb der
folgenden Anleitung zur Levelinstallation.

cooooool!

[hgdagon]

have they become freeware?

Most of the companies that released these CDs don't exist anymore. Anyway, as for 2013 they're not being sold anywhere (to my knowledge). All the CDs I have, I have downloaded. All downloaded from trusted sources (except for rips). As far as I remember it's 3dsl, FPS Legends, UG, and quaddicted. Covers are mostly my own searches....
