The Undergate
I had a hard time deciding what to call this map. It isn't made by the Underworldfan and he doesn't even know about it, but since it is almost based entirely on the Underworld site I gave it the name "undergate". I can include in the readme or even within the map that map isn't associated with the Underworldfan's site, this map is beta -- a nearly finished map, but it is not done yet.
Here is what this map is ....
I examined hundreds of maps (on the Underworld site) to identify maps that don't need a special progs.dat and I also discarded maps with models/sounds or anything out of the ordinary (except lits and skyboxes). I thinned out the field a little based on some criteria, took those maps and made screenshots of all of time, added titles/author names and category (plus xx/20 rating if applicable and Hall of Fame (the classic one) and denoted the ranking).
There are skill selector buttons for convenience.
If anyone is interested in looking around the map, the beta is available for download. Due to the size of the textures in the map, it is a fairly large individual map at 3.5 MB zipped.

It is beta because I discovered 3 typos in the map. Also Lardarse is going to help me do some QuakeC to make some enhancements.
And maybe I should rename the map, I'm not really sure what is an appropriate name for the map. It's solely based on the work of the Underworld site, but it isn't "endorsed" by him either and don't want to portray it as such.
Either way --- time to sleep :d :d
