Hi there, I thought it would be interesting to have a thread to help find Quake mods, mission packs (I refuse to call them just map packs. They are so much more than that to me.), or maps that you remember details of but cannot remember their name or where to find them.

To start off, I cannot remember the name of a particular Jam mission pack that was designed around the original map limits of Quake. I'm pretty sure it's not uploaded here so any help finding it would make my day.

I remember watching a gameplay vid of a custom map set in a suburban setting with an insane amount of monsters (a slaughter map, if you will). Unfortunately, I couldn't find the video in my watch history.

It's more downtown than suburban, but horde combat and urban environment sounds like Rampage by Colossus from the recent Brutalist Jam. If that's not it, is there maybe something else you remember about the map? Any custom monsters, a specific texture set or skybox etc.

Brilliant thread Amalgam!

I wonder if anybody can help me find this jam: Markie blocked out a small level with a simple key loop, and the exercise was for participants to 'colour it in'.

There's this particular map from that pack that really stuck with me, I'm fairly sure it was Artisticals work: Honey-style giant chain fragments here and there, and an end room with this incredible effect: floating geometry with skybox texture.

That's from Quake Builder Community Blockout Project and the level, as you said, is Artistical's "The Successor".

I'm thinking of an epic mod by a legendary 00s mapper which was signally marked by TES Oblivion vibes. Built off Drake mod maybe?

You start and end in a huge snow capped mountain range, but switch levels to raid a subterranean Aeylid ruin. Swarming fast zombies, lava Tarbaby turrets. Lots of Hexen 2 assets. Temple fills with lava after desecration. Great atmospherics.

That would be The Altar of Storms by necros.

Im sure this is pretty easy to search, but i remeber hearing about a map pack that was about all Brutalism Structure, and i don't get the name.

I believe it's this one:
