Q1 Malice: Ending after nuke plant?

[v12v12]

Hey all I've having some trouble finding some info about Malice, maps and secrets locations: Namely when I finish the nuke plant and enter the Yellow/orangish portal I end up being teleported to the beginning of the game outside that shadowy pyramid... that's not how I remember the game going/ending? He has some kind of fight with Bossman, or I'm almost certain there's more levels than the nuke plant? I hope so, this would be a horrible turn of events/ending!

Aww come on, someone has to know... my other thread had tons of malice enthusiasts. Help a fellow gamer out ya hear!

I'm sure Zop knows.

Sorry, I haven't played it that much. I can suggest trying another quake client to see if the problem is caused by the client you use.

Eh I think I'm entering the wrong portal, it looks like a hidden one. I manually loaded the next map level, and it works fine, I just cannot find the correct portal. I tried noclip and searched around, but found nothing. I wish I could get some old map jpgs of it. I remember having a vast archive of cheats, tips, and strategy guides for it, but they are long gone with a HD crash or something etc...

What is the name of the map file?
Is it D8? because they forgot to put a parachute in this map

I had no problems with the other maps.

Afaik it's The Incineration Plant (map d7)... I go through this yellow port, DERRRR wait I'll post a screen capt. Duh! lol... See it's the yellow portal in the background. I think I shot a rocket at one of those stupid bots, missed and there it revealed itself... I still cannot find the proper exit?

You didn't specify what engine you're using, some engines have severe compatibility problems that will cause symptoms just like this.

I'm using Qrack (newest)

Try another engine and see if it works better; any of mine http://user.tninet.se/~xir870k or FitzQuake http://celephais.net/fitzquake . The savegames are hopefully compatible.

Btw, I just noticed that you can't reload a savegame while watching a cutscene demo, view and movement are all screwed. This is a bug in the Malice progs and can be worked around by doing a restart followed by another loadgame.

I've never had a problem with loading a saved game while the startup demo is playing... I'll give the others a try thanks!

I noticed it because after you finish Nuclear Plant (which is d6 btw) and go through the yellow teleporter, another cutscene is shown (cut4) and while it was running, I reloaded a saved game and the camera and controls were screwed.

I assume it's d6 you're having trouble with, as d7 (The Incinerator Plant) has its exit tele in the floor with lava around it. D6 is the one with a nuke countdown of 60 seconds.

Yarrr yeah that's the one (D6)... Hrmm maybe I'm missing a pak file with the cut scene or something. I just skipped to the D7 stage and continued to play from there. It's still highly annoying, I love those cut scenes! I'll give loading the cut scene a try to see if it's missing or something. Thanks!
