Bluefunk must drink too much coffee. That's the only explanation I can think of for this quick, dirty, but still oh-so-much-fun map, slammed together completely in three hours!! Aptly named, 3 Hours features: lots of weapons, lots of ammo, and most importantly, lots of monsters. Want some quick mindless slaughtering? Look no further.

Here it is, the second installment of the village map pak... Village Part II. Inside you'll find 7 maps, with custom effects/objects, cutscenes, journal entries, traps and plenty of gameplay. The story is as follows:

He arrives at an extremely dangerous place ruled by a mysterious and powerful sorceress who has discovered the secret of immortality.

I hope everyone enjoys it! I've been working on this for the last 4 months, and would love to hear your feedback on the forums.

New map pack: Sins, by Bluefunk - Update by Gwog
Oh yes! Those that have been visiting this site since it launched might remember that the VERY FIRST news item ever posted here was a piece on June 14th, 2001, containing screenshots from a Hellraiser-themed map pack being worked on by Bluefunk. Well, the author of the excellent Lunacy has decided that his eight month vacation is finally over, and he has released Sins! This 5.1 MB download features custom textures, and the 5 Hellraiser-ish maps first mentioned here. Awesome.

Family Grave team interviewed - Update by Gwog
Jcal over at HomeLanFed tossed up an interesting interview with the gents from Family Grave, the recently released 22-map pack that almost everyone seems to be enjoying quite a bit. Gibdo and TheCrazyGerman talk a bit about their feelings on Undying, the process behind FG's long development, and other stuff that's cool. Check it.
TheCrazyGerman - Some day came the news that there will be no UNDYING 2. I was very sad - but I hoped that there will be a small community to keep the spirit of the game alive. And so I found the Standing Stones website on 3dactionplanet. That is the place, where all began.

I asked in the forum, if there is a mapper willing to do a project with me. I am a story writer in Germany, so I think I can invent some nice story plots. But: Because I have never mapped myself the only way to create a UNDYING map pack was to get help by someone. That someone came along - and his name is Gibdo.
