Yeah it is a map alright. 1000 monsters 56 secrets in so far. My own 100% test took me 80 minutes.

Now to build act 3 of the map. Thankfully we got another extension so I can take this much easier now. New qbj3 deadline is at Dec 7th.

Phew, new Urban Decay update, finally. These broken windows took a lot of work, but I think they were worth it. There's now 940 bloody textures in this thing, so close to the big 1000.

No, not one of those windows updates. Here are 120 new textures, mostly focused around expanding the selection of windows available. There are new factory and residential windows, a handful of window....

Yes, MD3 doesn't have vertex wobble. The best thing about it though is that it allows us to show BIBLICALLY ACCURATE QBJ3 WEAPONS

The chapel was the first visit for the Queen's procession as they ascended Hightown. They prayed for understanding and cooperation between the noble houses, especially during challenging times.
