Timeline

The Attack

ou know it is really a shame when you have a very good solo map that has designs so innovative, and the guy running the HyperArchive takes a screen shot of a dumb alien. My apologies to the author. Here is a three level solo adventure that will take you through some of the most imaginative tricks available with the Marathon engine. I was able to beta test this thing about a month ago and tried to get the author to submit it then. He was diligent to keep working and you will see why....Honestly some of the coolest tricks I've seen yet.....Flow is superb, lights and design are great.

The Chai'etra Saga

A four level scenario that has some great construction ideas. The ammo placement is great, but beware!! Like all of Bungie games, conserve, conserve and conserve. The first two levels were better IMO that the last. I played this one all day and was stuck on the second level forever!! I finally came off of TC (which I forgot I was set on) and made it through. Great monster placement, some dead ends and some crafty puzzles that you will have to figure out to get through this set. A couple of the levels were giant and at times seemed to just ramble, but every time I felt this way, here came t...

Allegiances

A very good solo map!!! Three levels that is crammed with just about all of the coolest tricks available with the Marathon engine at this time. You are on a pfhor ship trying to kill the bad guys while they are pretty intent on defending it. You have a choice of multiple endings and a great trick on the third level. (I don't want to give it away) The detail in this one is quite unique. Switches, chip insertion slots, etc....do not appear as they normally do. You will have to listen to the sounds that you get when you walk over a trigger poly.

Temple Raiders 1.0

A very small, tight net level OR a very small, tight, kill them all type of level. Pixel smear is a problem at times against some of the walls. A good stress burner. Comes with two versions one with a merged physics model and one without. The outdoor part is pretty well constructed, just a little too small for net gaming. Try it solo!

Sports Maps v1.0

All types of sports are included in this map pak. You can play soccer again, pool, pinball and even bowling. The bowling and the pinball maps were the most amuzing and interesting. Some old tricks and some new ones. Seven levels in all.

The Big Game 1.0

More of a non participatory map. You open up rooms that connected off of a main arena, and watch a bunch of baddies go at it. Some of the read me sounded awful familiar.....kind of fun if this is your type of game

Checkers

A small solo level that one should not play if you have a headache. The author suggest's this in the readme and he is telling the truth. The entire level is made up of platforms that are constantly moving and you goal is to try to stay alive against the BoBs. BoB's is not what they seem thanks to the physics model that comes with this level. I doubt if this could be a net level, thus the solo tag. Two versions, one with a lower ceiling and a different hill, if that's what you want to call it.

The Collective 1.3

A pretty good three level solo scenario. The first level will tax you and don't feel alone if you find yourself standing in the beginning room scratching your head. We've been there too. The second level has some good tricks in it. This update fixes a major smear when the "flood" happens. The third level is lava based. Save everywhere you can, you'll need it. Some tightness at times and some homogeneous textures in some areas, but not bad when you consider the tricks that are added into the second level. The pfhor fighters come in a different color-worth the download.

Dead Meat Walking

A single level solo map that is quite linear at times, or at least it felt that way. This author is off to a good start here, some very large rooms with alot of space for more detail maybe in the future. (hint) Check everything at the very beginning, there is a way out. Some monsters needed different tags, they were great target practice though.

Demise of the Enterprise

A solo level that is laid out with teleporters. Four different areas that you must explore and then when finished you teleport back to the original room to teleport to the next area. You are urged to help contain a virus on board the enterprise. A pretty fast one level solo adventure, nothing really detailed here but some good target practice with the BoBs.
