The Forgotten Sepulcher is about *60 times* more intricate than classic Quake maps.

Looks a little tricky to install according to the Github notes, but should be worth it :D

I imagine there's still loads of Quake fans, so here ya go.

Put it this way: while the original E1M3 is made up of around 1,000 brushes, which is the term for each individual shaped block that makes up a map, The Forgotten Sepulcher features 60,000. Thanks to id releasing Quake's source code online, modern updates to the engine have been able to push it further and further, doing things that would've been impossible in 1996.

But the Forgotten Sepulcher isn't just detailed—it's also huge compared to most Quake maps. There are 297 monsters to defeat and sub-bosses, if you can find the keys to their locked doors. Nearly 90 secrets are tucked away waiting to be uncovered. There's a multitude of destructive objects. Enemies burst from doorways. Also, there are fishing ogres.


Oh & if you've a gfx card that handles Vulkan, rejoice even more!

Hi, I have tried to install this but getting problems.
When I run The Forgotten Sepulcher I can move around, collect ammo but when I enter through any portal to play the level, it takes me to the screen where the level is complete.
I do get an error messages AD Cruicial as you move towards a portal.
I re installed but no joy.

So I have installed Quakespasm and it works fine with original quake. as directed here. https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/the-most-ambitious-quake-map-ever-built-has-just-been-released-in-2017/

Ive then follwed the remaining instructions but get the issues. Ive tried a few times but its always the same issue.

To launch the game I have to bring up the consile - Game AD
as I can't find any other way to access mods in the menu.

I am dying to try this new map

Any help would be appreciated

I made an installation guide for this ages ago. If you need help then you can try following my thought processes. Hopefully, it will help.


God, it's cringeworthy looking back at older work. :o :D

i thought there were only 50.

don't forget, there's about 500 enemies if you play on hard difficulty :)

i've managed to find about 48 of the 50 secrets, i just dissolved after that.

i fought the urge to run around hitting walls with the bloody axe!
