Quake2 and Editing Emporium

                                                                                                                                                                                                          

          A congratulatory note to the folks over at Id Software for making an incredibly kewl game and allowing for editing and changes to all aspects of the game for us hackers and programmers!  But to fully appreciated Quake2 to it's fullest I highly recommend using the Monster 3D Voodoo 1 or 2 graphics accelerators powered by the 3DFX  chip.  (I have one)  WOOHOO!
          For me the best map editor to use for Quake2 is of course Qoole.  For first timers, and for the most experienced out there, it is definitely the editor of choice.

There are of course a few other Quake2 editors out there like:

                                                                                                                                          


Here's a couple of things you'll need to play Quake 2:

1. DirectX v7.0a, courtesy of Microsoft you can get it here (6.3 Mb).
2. Latest patch for Quake 2 which is v3.20 plus the full CTF add-on, courtesy of CDROM.COM, you can get it here (18.8 Mb).
3. Location of a TONNE of Quake 2 maps and levels at CDROM.COM, you can get those here.

Here is the first one I made, carl2.zip.
