Let’s make 2019+ better than 2018. If I am missing a upload of a (well-packaged) new map for more than a week, you may give me animal names.
Check what’s uploaded in https://www.quaddicted.com/files/maps/singleplayer/
Please post direct links to new files in this thread. That makes it easiest for me to upload them. Quaketastic or other direct link hosters only.
“Uploaded” does not mean “available in the database at https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/”. Uploading simply means the file is available in https://www.quaddicted.com/files/maps/singleplayer/.
Please do not go into any discussion about contents or whatever in this thread. Its only purpose is to track new uploads and potentially missing releases.
Read this to get your release up quickly:
[quote=radiatoryang]Hello all. I’m helping out with adding your new releases to the Quaddicted database.
To review, updating Quaddicted with new maps is a 4 step process:
-
You upload a well-packaged .ZIP to a non-Drive / non-Dropbox direct link webhost like Quaketastic (for help with packaging: https://www.quaddicted.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=605 )
-
You add a new post that links to your .ZIP in this Quaddicted forum thread “Tracking new releases” https://www.quaddicted.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=636
-
Spirit uploads a copy of your .ZIP to Quaddicted.com
-
Quaddicted volunteers like me have to input all the database metadata (author names, map names, features) and it sometimes takes a long time to do all this research to manually update your entry.
So to speed up step 4, please start including database data when you link to your release!
It will make things easier for volunteers, make updates more frequent here, AND it will give you a little more control over how your page will look too.
(If you don’t do this, it’ll take longer to add your release + you’ll have no say in your map presentation)
Here’s a template for people to copy and paste for future release posts here. Replace the example placeholder with your own data.

EXTRA LINKS (optional)
one link per line, format is (title)|(url)… example – “ModDB|https://moddb.com”
MAP SIZE ESTIMATE
are these small (~5 minutes), medium (10-15 min), or large (20, 30+ min) levels? help players budget time and expectations
SHORT DESCRIPTION (1-4 sentences)
How many maps? Do they form an episode? If it was a map jam, what were the constraints? What map themes or styles? Any custom weapons or textures or monsters? What mod kit did you use, is it already included or downloaded separately?
