Description:
A medium sized (256 X 256) single player map for CUBE, release version 12-23-03.
The map takes place in an Egyptian/Stone Temple type setting. You know the deal, find the carrots, move on to the next area and kill (70) monsters along the way. Find the wildly spining carrot at the end of the map to complete the game.
Please note: There will always be (1) hidden monster left at the end of map. I did this to make sure the map ended when you find the last carrot.

This is my first map for any game (been playing Quake type single player games for years, love to frag!). Any feedback on this map would be great. Contact: mitaman@prodigy.net

Inspired by Quake and Serious Sam single player maps.

================================================================

This map has new material!! (new to CUBE anyway)
(9) new mapping textures (scanned in from various pictures and modified by me)
(1) new water texture (downloaded from www.3Dcafe.com and modified by me)
(1) new skybox "PlanetMeat" (Autor: Speedy, www.planetquake.com/speedy)
(1) new song "HeavyHitterCube.ogg", a Heavy Rock Instrumental written by me using ACID PRO 4.0 and license free loops.

================================================================

This map is available in a full version (mpsp1_full.zip) and includes all the materials listed above, and a lite version (mpsp1_lite.zip) without the new song "HeavyHitterCube.ogg" (to cut down on download size).

Create a new folder "mpsp1" in the "packages" folder of your CUBE install.(example: cube/packages/mpsp1)
Extract all files into the new "mpsp1" folder.
It is important to extract the files into this specific folder or the textures, skybox, and new music will not work as they should!

Please note: If you install the LITE version, "HeavyHitterCube.ogg" will not play!
