    Padgallery by ENTE

    Reviewed by RawShark webmaster of RawShark's Quake2 maps

    Filename: padgallery.pk3

    Third map in the PAD series by that author with incredible attention to detail, ENTE. I was literally blown away by the use of custom textures in this map to produce a modern day art gallery. True, a lot of the "art" is by m8s of the author, but it's how he put it all together that counts. Definitely the most visually stunning FFA map you'll see for quite some while.

    Playwise, it's just as nice. The map is big and sometimes confusing (a good thing) and there are plenty of weapons and items - including a MachineGun to pick up. That's the first time I've ever seen that and it seems pretty wierd. Had trouble finding some of the items and weapons, some I didn't find at all. I found myself running after a bot screaming "Where'd you get that f&%king Rocket Launcher?!!".

    Some very nice touches also, like toilet cubicles as teleporters and other cool stuff. The erotic art gallery is very impressive too - I believe there is also a non-erotic version of the map to be downloaded on the author's site. Just don't get blown away by another player who catches you drooling over naked chics!! Most embarrassing.

    I had to turn texture detail WAY up on my machine to appreciate this map the way it was meant to be, but this resulted in slower play. If you have a slow enough machine or a low-end graphics card, you probably shouldn't really bother with this one. If you're well equipped for detail in Q3A, then you should get this map ASAP. Good stuff.
