Description             : Quake Deathmatch
                         
================================================================

Play Information	

Single Player           : nope
Deathmatch              : Yes
Recommended No. Bots    : 1-2
Comments		: This map uses a unique loadout system for
 			  weapons, ammo and armor. Each player is
			  equipped with a different loadout when they
 			  "telespawn". There aren't any weapons and 
			  ammo laying around the map, so players must 
			  scavange those items from dead opponents.

			  There isn't any health or armor to
			  pick up, so even minimal damage adds up
			  quickly.

			  Don't waste ammo, unless you like using the
			  axe. This map isn't about who can pick up all
			  the big guns, stockpile ammo and hog all the
			  health. It's about cunning survival tactics.

Installation instructions

Ensure you have the REGISTERED version of Quake on your device. Modified files and custom maps will NOT run without the registered version of Quake.

Put "xploadzone.bsp" in your "\quake\id1\maps\" folder (create the directory structure if necessary).

Make sure you have LOTS of free RAM in order to run the map at a decent framrate. It runs noticeably faster with 14 megs of RAM than 11 megs.

Boring History and More Ramblings

I decided to throw a little map together with some interesting textures, just so I could test them (the truck textures). It's amazing how fast a map goes together if you have all the materials. Previous build times of my other maps took weeks, simply because I had to create all the textures. This one was completed in less than a day.

It is inspired from an Unreal Tournament mod called "Infiltration". Which basically blows away any currently available game/mod (including CS), simply because of it's unique structure and execution. Check it out at http://www.planetunreal.com/infiltration/

In Infiltration, each player has ONE life with LIMITED ammo and weapons. There are no health pickups. Your teammates are your only backup. One fatal shot and your out of the game until the next round.
