Welcome to the greatest deathmatch show on earth. This month, as tribute to one of the best multiplayer games around, we bring you our collection of some of the best mods, maps, skins, utilities and tools for Quake III: Arena. Naturally, we couldn't fit every addon onto this cd, so what you see here is our cream of the crop selections. Let the fragfest begin!
Quake III Arena
----------------
Favourite Maps
To use these Quake III: Arena files you must have the game already installed on your computer. Most maps are easy to use. Just unzip the files and install the *.pk3 files into your quake3/baseq3/ folder and then start the game. Use the menus to play the maps. If you get stuck with any of the files make sure you read the installation instructions.
There's over 50 maps to enjoy including our favourites Runtfest, Capture the Chicken, Fist of Fury, Obiwan's House, and more.
Quake III: Arena BETA Point Release 1.27g
This is the latest patch release for Quake III. Changes in this release include new and revised commands and variables, CTF scoring has been restored to the method used in 1.17, diagnostic tools (such as lagometer) that were broken in the original 1.25 release have all been restored and heaps of mischellaneous bugs have been fixed.
Quake III: Alliance Mod
Alliance is a mod with two distinct gaming styles, the more standard ACTF (Alliance Capture the Flag) and the more skill-focused Combat/Deathmatch CTF (Capture the Flag). The Combat/Deathmatch mode is the Quake III equivalent to Expert CTF, but includes new weapon behaviors, scoring, grapple speeds, and more.
Quake III: Power UP Fragfest Mod 1.3
Want to know which power-up is better: Quad, Regen, Flight, or Haste? Find out with Power Up Frag Fest (PUFF). This mod will let two teams fight each other with different power-ups. In addition, there is an optional Grapplehook, a new hud, new gametypes, new power-ups, and more.
Quake III: Team Arena Movie
The Quake III Team Arena includes Single Player (with bots) and multiplayer functionality, new maps, skins, new game types and powerups. The demo was on last month's CD. If you didn't get it, watch this movie instead or maybe consider subscribing.
Quake III: TEC Mod 2.0
T.E.C. (Tech Enhanced Carnage) started out as a simple mod to bring back the old-style play of Quake 2 CTF. The developers wanted to have all the familiar elements, and then some. So they added in the grapple, put in the 4 original techs, and added a Rocket Arena style overtime tie-breaker. But that wasn't enough... Not for the Q2 masses that wanted a way to go Q3 without losing what they were familiar with
Quake III: Classic Capture The Flag Mod
A lot of people have complained that Quake III CTF (Capture the Flag) lacks something that made Quake and Quake II CTF fun. Classic CTF hopes to bring back that old-school feeling by re-adding the techs, the grapple, and lots of other stuff
Quake III: Weapons Factory Arena Mod
WFA (Weapons Factory Arena) is one of the most complex and demanding mods to learn and play. It isn't easy, but with time, patience, and practice, you will be rewarded with the skills necessary to play one of the most popular Quake Capture the Flag (CTF) mods ever released WFA requires the standard deathmatch skills of any Quake game, additional strategy from team-based CTF, and tactical skills to master and understand eight different classes and more than 20 different weapons. If you think you got what it takes, think again.
Quake III Excessive Overkill Mod
Excessive is an over-the-top mod that makes weapons extremely powerful, turns off self-damage, gives all the players regenerating health and ammunition, and makes every game into a wild and crazy frag-fest.
Quake III Grinch Model
Ahh the Grinch. A storybook character of legendary proportions, you've seen the movie, you've been bitten by his charm, now you can be the Grinch in this new Quake 3 Arena model. Just install and show the world how mean the Grinch can really be.
Quake III Capture And Hold Mod
Law and order is now a thing of the past. Deep below the city streets, gangs and syndicates try to gain power and increase their business. These organisations are fighting for the first position in drug, prostitution and weapon business. Every night they must defend their parts of the sprawls against other gangs and must expand into new territories If you think, you and the poor bunch of foes, that you call your gang, can survive longer than 5 minutes in this strange world, then come in and try to get your piece of the cake. Just make sure you're packing some serious firepower.
Quake III: Capture The Chicken
The object is to catch the chicken and hold onto it for as long as possible. The longer you hold the chicken the more frags you get. However you are vunerable to player weapons the second you pick up the chicken, so its a good idea to run like mad. For players without the chicken the game is just like normal deathmatch, except only the chicken holder can be killed.
Quake III: Fortress
This addon modifies the multi-player aspects of Quake 3 to create a much more team-oriented experience when playing on the Internet,on gaming networks or with friends across a LAN. It implements a number of different player classes and equipts them with with unique weapons, strengths and abilities.
Quake III: Rocket Arena
Rocket Arena is an interesting new twist to traditional deathmatch. Its basic form is strictly a one-on-one game with "winner stays, loser goes" rotation. It is also capable of setting up much more advanced competitions, with multiperson teams, and multiple teams per match. It's one of the finest add-ons ever to come to Quake 3 Arena.
Quake III: Jailbreak Mod
Jailbreak is a Teamplay MOD for Quake 3 Arena. A game of jailbreak consists of two teams, Blue and Red. When killed, you are transported to the enemies jail. While in jail, fellow teammates can free you by hitting the release trigger, or you can work together and use an escape hole located inside of the jail to gain your freedom. Once a team has all opponents in jail they are Executed, this being your ultimate goal. This is the full version of the mod, including bot support.
Quake 3 Arena Tweak
This program makes it possible to set your preferences not listed in the in-game Quake 3 settings. It includes tweaking for visual-, sound, and network-settings. The program has preview shots, and descriptions of what the different commands do. Use it to get the maximum performance out of Quake III: Arena.
Quake 3 Arena Tools
Straight from id Software comes this cool Quake III Arena Tool kit. This program comes with Q3Radiant and all associated map/level design tools to help you design some kickass Quake levels. The editor/tool install MUST be installed in the same directory as Quake 3 Arena otherwise it won't work. Test it out and send us your favourite maps!
