æon's

  • news & archive
    sum up the happenings on this site.

  • sites (see below)
    this site is also the hub for my other projects æon's rpgs, æstats, ætats++, unreal, and nostalgia.

  • maps
    download my maps for quake 2, half-life, quake 3 arena, quake 3 platformer, and far cry.

  • wallpapers
    download one of my collages for unreal, unreal ii, halo, quake 3 arena, daikatana, heavy metal f.a.k.k.², myst iii, heavy metal 2000, ghost in the shell, greece, brasilia, kotor, kotor ii, ...

  • slides
    some real-world slides of my excursions to pasadena/california, tirol/austria and nagoya/japan.

  • misc
    downloads not related to maps or wallpapers, like faqs or icons and the like...

  • faqs
    in the last few years i have written quite a few faqs (frequently asked questions). usually collecting pertinent information on games, presenting them in an easy to read and understand manner. these faqs are especially intesting for rpg games, since there are simply so many things a casual gamer might miss playing these complex games. other faqs explicitly list all the secrets, using screenshots to make it easier to find them in the game. even a mapping faq for quake 4 is available.

  • on mapping
    æon's special - on mapping: takes you through the wonderful world of mapping. the five extensive sections with tips and comments are general enough to interest mappers of just about any 3d shooter...

  • about æon
    a few words about myself... on hobbies and stuff i did over the years...

  • mail
    i love getting feedback, so why not send me an email :).

sites

appart from the main æon's site, i have worked on some other sites:

  • æon's rpgs
    this site is dedicated to supporting the games gothic 3 and two worlds with all sorts of infos (e.g. faqs). specifically the interactive map for gothic 3 called g3imap and another one for two worlds called 2wimap should be of much use to the casual gamer.

  • æstats
    way back in the winter of 1998 i started to code this game log analyzer tool that generates html ranking and stats. by now it supports more than 20 games and mods directly, and provides executables for win32 and linux. so if you are an admin, have a game server running and need a site magnet... try æstats.
    (2009: æstats development has seized, see æstats++!)

  • æstats++
    since æstats is a bit dated, i have made plans to code the next generation in log analyzing tools. the result will be æstats++. the site already contain lots of details and infos on things that are planned. i still have to find the time to get it all coded.
    (2009: æstats++ development is becoming less and less likely, alas!)

  • unreal
    way back when unreal was all the rage i started a dedicated unreal site. it contains tons dated but still useful info. there is even a short tutorial to get you acquainted with unrealed, unreal's out of the box level editor. if you are looking for unreal art, you will find plenty of it there.
    (2009: site is no longer active, kept for purely nostalgic reasons!)

  • nostalgia
    this is a redesigned version of a site i used to run, that collected screen shots for many games. mostly interesting stuff i had found on the net. interesting in so far, as you can compare final release game shots with early development shots and see how things progressed. the new site features several nice specials, e.g. explicitly commented configuration files.
