Only one this time
I still have a few more demos of mine to post (but not many), but I'm extremely
busy these days, so it will take a while to post all of them. That's also
why there's only one demo this time:
Starseed 2 (starspq2)
Also, SDA posted the winning demos in their run of the week challenge. It was extremely close...
Another thing. In case I didn't make it clear enough, this site is for single-player (and coop, if you want) demos only - not deathmatch/ctf/whatever.

General stuff
First of all, Anthony Bailey suggested a simpler way to record an entire
unit: just go through the whole unit in one demo and then use
Uwe's MULDER
utility to make it play back correctly. Or you can even let me do it
for you if you don't want to mess with it. The downside, of course, is that
it's harder to do the whole thing in one run. Thanks Anthony!
I've played some of Neil Manke's maps a few weeks ago, and they look great, but I had problems finishing them... I kept running out of ammo, and didn't find all the secrets. Did anyone have similar experiences? Does anyone feel like recording them?
Demos
I wanted to post some of these demos yesterday but didn't have the time to
make an update. I'm also commenting some of them this time. The problem is,
I recorded almost all of these more than a month ago, and I don't really
remember them all well enough to comment. Also, I've started trying to name
the zip files for the demos differently than the zip file for the level.
And I'm including the name of the zip file as well, in case you don't recognize
the level name.
Angron Installtion (angron1)
Bad Seed (mpqu1)
The Bloodshrine (bshrine)
Leftovers (iksp1). This is the first Quake2 demo I recorded, aside for some speedruns in the first Q2Timer days. I'm not sure if it shows...
Mercy at Stroggos Deten3 (mercy). There are a few kills here that are impossible to get - at least I couldn't find how to kill them. (The sharks behind the glass)
Payback (mixspq1)
Saturation Point (jhspq1)
Water Works (water_works). For a certain reason, the tank took quite a while to arrive... that's why I run around aimlessly for about a minute. I don't know why I still remember it :)

More demos
I added 7 more demos. 4 single maps, 3 units. Links to the levels themselves
are on the demos page. I did this update in a hurry,
so hopefully there are no mistakes. I'll try to make a more general update
soon, when I have more time.
Single maps:
Infiltrate :: Subjugate :: Eliminate
Entire units:
The Powersphere Quest, part 2. These are the last 5 demos for The Powersphere Quest.

Page started
Welcome to the Quake2 custom level demos site! The purpose of this site is
to have demos for as many custom Quake2 levels as possible, recorded with
the maximum number of kills and secrets, on the Hard skill level (except
in special cases). This is in order to help anyone who is stuck in a certain
level, or just to entertain.
Speed is not important, so everyone can participate, not just speedgods. The only requirement is the ability to finish whatever custom map you want, alive :) If you want speed, go to Speed Demos Archive.
Read the information page for more, well, information, including detailed explanations about the type of demos you'll find here, why I started this page, why not speed demos, etc..
I didn't have much time to work on the design this site but I wanted to get it started, so there is no logo yet, and the design is copied straight from my personal home page. If anyone wants to make a logo, it will be most welcome.
First demos
I started this page because I had many demos of mine to post, and it will
take me a few days to post them all. I guess I'll post 6-8 every update,
until they're all posted (won't take long). I'll be happy to accept submissions
for anyone who's recorded a demo for any Quake2 custom level, so if you have
one, don't hesitate to send it!
Here are the first demos. The links all point to the demos, not the maps! You can find links to the maps in the demos page. I know that sometimes I named the zip for the demo the same as the zip for the map... I hope there are no confusions.
First of all, single maps:
And now, a few demos for entire units:
The Powersphere Quest, part 1 (I'll upload the second part in the next update). This one I recorded on easy skill, because this is a coop unit, and easy skill is meant for single-player. (It says so in the text file)
I have a lot more demos that I will post in the next few days. In the meantime, let me know if you like this page, and feel free to pick a Quake2 custom level, record it and send it to me.
