Found a bug in Necromancer's Swamp. I was in what i assume is the last boss fight in the circular arena area, laying into the big dude with the super nailgun, when he raised his sword and summoned some lightning. Then this:

CALL2 402(setmodel)setmodel() monsters.qc : monsterspawn <NO FUNCTION> no precache: progs/mongaunt.mdl Host_Error: Program error Client player removed

A couple of the maps (Shadesmaster's -- the one you're mentioning there -- and Artistical's) have had bugfix/improvement revisions since the release of this pack.

I originally saw them on Discord, dunno if they've been uploaded elsewhere, so I've got them here: https://neogeographica-downloads.s3.amazonaws.com/tools/quakestarter/hwjam3_fixes.zip

I have played only a couple of these maps yet, but wanted to congratulate Entsoy for creating "Approach of the Second Sun". A really refreshing new experience on Quake mapping, and that's no small feature.

Johnny Law, thanks for the fixes!

... Oh, my gawds. The Vileduct... so beautiful. I'm just disappointed the elevator doesn't go all the way up; I'd love to see this one fleshed out with accessible building interiors and another level up.

This is a very impressing map pack.

Only one of the maps completely beat me ("Us") - that was too much like a good, old-fashioned LSD trip to me. You could nearly taste the colour nine... All the other maps, each in their own way, contained elements of new thinking and new angles. That these keep popping up after nearly 25 years, is quite remarkable.

If a revised mappack (including the bugfixes mentioned elsewhere) is uploaded at some time in the future, i would appreciate if AD is not included - i'm stuck with a old ADSL modem and very limited bandwith. It should be enough to mention AD as a prequisite, and provide a link, please

All in all: very good.

Okay, so I screwed up and saved Us over my only save point. How the *$#@!?! do you get out of that level? And what kind of drugs is quasiotter taking?
