*** QuakeMap 2.8 ***


This is a level/patch/etc editor for Quake, the game by id Software.
It combines a map editor, a QuakeC code compiler, and a front-end for
running Quake. New: BSP Hacking

Requirements : Registered Quake, Windows 95, and the QBSP/VIS/LIGHT
utilities. No Texture .wad needed.

QUAKEMAP is centralized on a proprietary file format, with extension
".qme". Although you may use it as a standard ".map" editor, simple yet
powerful, it is far more than just that : the ".qme" file format can
store a lot of things more than just a map. You can store several maps,
code patches (written in QuakeC), files like new sounds or new models
for Quake, new textures, and more, in a single .qme file, and
distribute it in this format, ready to run. You can also use it as just
a code compiler that produces more efficient code than QCC, and that
doesn't suffer from QCC's size limitations. It is also an ideal way to
distribute new map-related behaviors, like new monsters or power-ups
that anyone will be able to add to his maps.

QuakeMap.
