Genericjohndoe: But honestly: I see this as a starter pack and with nearly 3 GB download it is now pretty huge.
Agree. In my opinion only the best of the best should be in such starter pack. Although I think AD maps I suggested are much more fun and higher quality content then some others you included (like Quoth). I'd say AD, Copper and Alkaline represents the new quality standard. Everything older is just not that good.
New upload up, version 1.5.

Have a look at the readme then.

Gn8! Im a sleepy boy now.

Edit: I am currently uploading v.1.51 with fixes for my mistake, more maps and a workaround for a bug in the VOIP-System of quakespasm.

Version 1.51 is uploaded to googledrive now, did use 7z instead of zip so that the overall size is a little bit smaller, although some more maps and tools are in there.

I tried to doublecheck everything so that this file should be as flawless for you as it should be.
The selector.bat is definitely in there this time. config.cfg files are correct configurated and all files should be the last version.

But feel free to point me to some faulty parts if you find them.

Rubicon Rumble Pack is is up there. Also higher rated on Quaddicted than anything other than AD.
People should also look into Epochs of Enmity for something more akin to a new Quake episode.
Both are in the package.

Back to topic, update 1.51 to 1.52 is up (328 MB). (Full release will follow, but my upload is not so fast.)
I did change the music for AD 1.8, i took the normal music from the maps for ad and added the music from aqm_pack.
For Dopa i added the soundtrack from EpiQuake_Release_A.
And an additional sountrackpack (AlternateQuakeMusic)

The reason for the change of the AD music was i did misremember after all the tinkering that the music was from AD 1.7.
But it wasn't. It was from "Arcane_Dimensions_Epsilon_build_v1_00_29-11-2019" and for that soundtrack i did not have the permission nor could i bother myselfe to ask the author. And, last but not least, the songs from the former soundtrack did not get the correct triggers as in the Epsilon Build and played all over the place. The Replacements
are the exact number of tracks like in the NiN-Soundtrack so that they should fit better.

Additional i added the maps
"A Verdant Dawn" (zigisp1),
"The Altar of Storms" (ne_ruins) and
"The Lima Project" (ad_beep1m2).

Wise-man: Rubicon Rumble Pack is is up there. Also higher rated on Quaddicted than anything other than AD.
RRP and Quoth were better than anything else at the time of their release dates, but I believe they would have lower ratings if had been released a few years later, mainly because AD changed the perspective. Today RPP would be rated slightly lower than Alkaline, I think. This is how expectations are changing over time. Keep that in mind when comparing ratings from different points in time.
1.6 is now up, sorry that this has to be a full download, i did mess up some files in the past and this is the clean up.
Hopefully as a stable basis for further drop-in-updates besides the full releases.
Update 1.6 to 1.61 is now uploaded, full version follows after the upload is done.

Added Quoth - Blue Monday and the classic Zerstorer + quake colored lightmaps for the classic episodes and some more alternative music.
By the way, feel free to share your thoughts to this package and if you find bugs or cosmetical problems, too!

I will do my best to fix it if somethings goes downhill!
1.62 is up. Did add a seperate link for a "level compilation cd" Archive.
Please feel free to mention problems or suggestions!

PS:
I would like to ask the moderators if this thread could be pinned, or is that too self-deprecating? ;)
Even if this is just a compilation, i put some effort in it and i would like see some commentary so that i can
see if this pack can help people to get a first foothold into quake customer maps. (Or if this will lead to nothing and i should had stick it to my selfe.)
Update 1.63 is now up on mega. I had to change from googledrive because the space there is running out.

If anybody has a disadvantage please message me or write a comment so that i try to fit in the files to googledrive again.
Version 1.64 is up!
Update 1.64 to 1.65 is up, full version 1.65 is currently uploading to googledrive.
V.1.7 is now up on archive.org, googledrive will follow!
