 [Image]                          Quake Tutorials for BSP

         Note: A zip file of each lesson is available if you would prefer to
         download that rather than reading it on-line. These zip files are here
         on Telefragged's ftp site and on two mirror sites. The link to the zip
         file and the mirror sites are listed along with each lesson. Note that
         the Reine Larsson mirror is in Sweden, so people outside the U.S. may
         have better luck there, but since Reine has a life (unlike me), it may
         take a day or two to update his mirror after I post a change.

         You no longer need the support file to run the lessons. Each lesson zip
         stands on its own and has no frames or anything that should mess you up
         moving from lesson to lesson. Also, all the lessons are available on one
         massive zip file now. It's here if you really want it or at one of the
         following mirror sites (may be a delay before it's available on them).
