Description:	This map pack contains four team-style maps approved for use with id Software’s Quake III: Team Arena™ computer game. Their creators are some of the most talented mapmakers in the Quake community. Working together with id designer Paul Jaquays, Quake3World Level Editing forum moderator AstroCreep, Mr. Elusive, the bot A.I. programmer for both Quake III Arena and Quake III: Team Arena, and Drunken Boxer, Quake3World Capture the Flag and Team Arena forum moderator, these artisans have created some truly fine playgrounds for Team Arena.

Anonymous	This is the first official map pack released for Team Arena! Unfortunately the maps are not that great and are out of style. The map pack 2 was much better than this! Sorry. 2/5 -Doomer95	x

INSTRUCTIONS:
Open the .zip file and select EXTRACT. Make certain that you have the "use folder names" option selected. Extract all files into your main Quake III Arena game folder. The paths will send the files to the correct locations (all except the four batch files go into the missionpack folder). These maps are designed for use with Quake III: Team Arena. If you do not own the Team Arena add-on for Quake III, these maps will lose functionality in the form of missing textures, items, and game play options. The server batchfiles enclosed that will allow you to set up dedicated servers that will run this map set.

WARNING! These server scripts will delete any 'q3config.cfg' files you have any your Quake 3 directory. We strongly recommend backing those particular files up in another directory before running the server batch file scripts.
A full readme file is located inside the enclosed .pk3 file for each map.

POST PRODUCTION NOTES"

* NOTE: The included server batch file scripts assume that the server computer is running with at least 96 megabytes of RAM. If your computer has only 64 megabytes of RAM, you will need to edit the Set RAM line of each script to 56.

* Japanese Castles TA (japanc_ta.bsp) does not have a spawn spot for free for all or tournament play. If you start the game from the console, set the game type to one of the four team gamestyles first (/g_gametype #). 4 = CTF, 5 = Oneflag, 6 = Overload, 7 = Harvester.

* Crossed Paths v.TA (dbox2_ta.bsp) does not appear in the Overload game menu. All the entities are in place for it, but the arena file is miswritten. You may start the game from the console or connect to it on-line with no problem.
