Drink Your Milk

A small arena with a raised ring around the outside. (Access to the ring is via teleporters.) Lots of fusion bobs, and more ammo than you could ever use... a recipe for disaster if ever there was one. Watch who you shoot...

Fortress Infinity

A small arena with a central area and four semicircular additions, with walls to hide behind and windows to shoot through. Small enough, and with enough big weapons, that carnage rates should be absurd, even for two players.

Infinity Nightmares Patch

Replaces Fighters, Troopers, Compilers and Hunters with characters from the creator's childhood nightmares. This is now an Anvil patch, and requires v1.0.2 or higher.

Kirkhill

This puppy's much bigger than it seems at first blush. Billed as "a very simple carnage warehouse", this map contains lots and lots of nooks and crannies... enough to keep eight players busy, easily. The hill is reachable from a hundred different directions, it seems... you can jump to it from nearby ledges, and teleporters bring you to it from the farther reaches. And wonder of wonders... this map contains two lava pools, and neither one has to be fatal! This map has potential as a long-term keeper.

Opium v1.1

A small, simple, wide-open level, with great flow and lots of weapons. Keep the total players under 4 or 5, and you should have seriously fast-paced killing going on. (More and you'd just get in each other's way...)

Our Ancient School Days

A run-around-and-kill everything level. At least some of the bobs don't like you (which eventually leads to all of the bobs not liking you), but there's a big cyborg on your side. I found him to be pretty good at killing, when he found something to kill... but he was a little weak in search mode. Generally good construction... but save before you enter the final room. There's only one way to finish... and you only get one shot at it.

Infinity Sight Patch v2.0

Gives you sights for your weapons in Infinity. If you have trouble aiming the SPNKR, this is for you! (This will eventually migrate to the Infinity shapes page, once it exists...) Update is now an Anvil patch, but it needs Anvil v1.0.2.

M2 Wall Textures

PICT files (and Photoshop color tables) for each of the four texturesets in M2. These can be imported easily into an Infinity shapes file (using Anvil), facilitating the use of Forge for building M2 maps.

Repurposing Bob

Mark Conahan has taken all of his M1 maps (including those originally in Canyonlands, Go Wif Jeza, Bobco, some single-map releases, and some previously unreleased maps), tied them all together with a cynically entertaining storyline (reminded me of Harry Harrison), and bundled them with a huge assortment of shapes. These include all those first released with the above maps, plus new scenery, and some shapes and physics created by other people (the battle mech from Dogs of Pfhor, the fusion and spanker bobs from Dave Turner's High and Low map, a sight patch...).

Physics Converter 1.0

A small drag-n-drop program that provides a simple way to convert between M2 and Infinity physics models.

"Burn Baby, BURN!"

Very dark, very confusing, lots and lots of monsters. (Author recommends you turn them off for net games.) A little bit of 5D, mostly just for breathing room where there wouldn't normally be any.

By Jove Jeeves!

The second part of the Dragonfly trilogy that started with What Ho! Jeeves, this is a slightly more involved scenario than the first one. You still have a dry, erudite AI helping you along, but there's some serious fighting going on. Four levels, but the first three are a cakewalk. (The forth is definitely not.) This should provide you with some good stress-burning opportunities.

Cage Dancing

Cross-and-ring catwalks surround the hill, which is enclosed in a cage... the sectioned areas of the floor below provide teleporter access to the cage. You can't shoot out once you're in, and you can't escape... and it's really, really small if someone decides to join you. Good for Prisoner on the Hill games.

Carnage Over My-Hammy

Flow is quite nice, even if you do find yourself running into pillars every once in a while. Texture choices make distances and doorways hard to distinguish, especially at low-res... but layout is well done overall. Feels like it'd hold eight without too much trouble.

Carnalley

This map seriously favors mouse players... the ability to turn on a dime will keep you alive more than any other skill, here. Four towers, with door locks on the inside, are surrounded by open alleyways. Weapons are in the towers, ammo is outside... so you can't stay safe forever. Some secrets remove even the advantage of the well-stocked tower-dweller... this is a really well-thought-out map.

Celestial Planes

Very clean. An outdoor level (well, in space, I guess), on multiple levels. Extremely open... almost any spot is in the line of fire of any other, but that doesn't mean you can aim that well, or that your target will obligingly stand still. A few nice secrets.

Death From Below

A large, water-filled arena with a dry hill in the center and a dry ring around the outside. A single water pillar provides a stealthy way to attack the hill (and is probably what gave the map its name). If you're hiding in the pillar, beware of opponents with SMGs!

Full of Bucky Minister

A large honeycomb map. This one's designed for teams... the ammo caches require two people to access. (Check your map view for clues...)

Infinity Net Collection vol.1

Three levels. The first is a straightforward sewage-filled arena, with a few areas out of the action, for loading up on weapons and ammo. The second is split into two pieces... a warzone (lots of baddies, bobs, and S'pht'kr) and a small lava-filled arena. The third... well, "You are in a maze of twisty passages, all alike."

Infinity Suicide v5.0

Three levels: two Bungie M1 maps, and one original. All three are really, really fun. (Smells like Napalm is a blast-watch yourself on those recharging platforms!)
