I post a lot of ALIEN action figure stuff on the site as that’s its primary purpose but I’ll also occasionally use it to share other interests I have within the ALIEN property.  For example, there’s been a resurgence of interest in the old Monolith game, AvP2,  released in 2002 and I have found uncompiled .ed files for custom maps I made for the game.  I have decided to release this selection publicly.  These 6 maps can be downloaded here.

In the zip file you will find raw .ed files for the following maps:

• Station 23 – Originally appearing in AvP2 CTF mod, collaboration with Herr Alien.
• Blue Collar – Originally appearing in AvP2 CTF mod. Many textures missing.
• Blue Transmission Intercept – Originally appearing in AvP2 CTF mod.
• Hostile Appetite – Originally released as Alien single player mod/map.
• Lost Cargo – DM/TDM map. Collaboration with Psykore.
• Dry Dock – DM/TDM map.

IMPORTANT! These AvP2 maps are being provided in ‘as is’ uncompiled .ed format! You will need DEdit installed in order to view and compile them. Knowledge of advanced map editing (Specifically, nosnapnocsg familiarity.) technique using the Talon system is essential to getting these working and running within the game. Some of them were used in 3rd party mods and will update objects when running. Third party custom textures are not provided. Other than that, these raw uncompiled map files are free to use however you wish.

There are good things hiding in these files and you are welcome to use them. Please provide credit. I know there’s a ton more but I will have to dig to find them.  I am actually considering working on making some more maps for the game simply because titles like AvP 2010, ALIENS: Colonial Marines and ALIEN Isolation have no such support for this kind of content.
