SPEAK YOUR MIND
"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free
to move?"
"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as
metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course,
the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom,
as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning.
Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

Hey there!
This is good news. I can answer some things for you, and not others, and hopefully someone else will chime in with that info.
In regards to the missing .t3d maps on FileBall, they are missing because at the time that list was up, I had some information that people were actually working on those maps. Since it's been more than a year now and have heard nothing, I'm assuming those people will never actually finish what they started, which is a shame.
In regards to the wasps and ticks (lookers), I do have a build that has them, that I totally forgot that you'd need. I can send you that build if you provide me with an email that I can send download info to.
As far as generating the .t3d files for the missing maps, it's actually pretty simply. "randomer" created the app that does the conversion, and he's posted here before and he might even keep an eye out for this stuff. Look for his messages on the forum, and you'll find that he's provided a way to convert the marathon levels directly on his website, if I recall, so you could get the needed .t3d files that way.
I can't offer a whole lot of info about UED specifics (such as triggers, actors, monster behaviour) because I've never done any of that, nor have I ever even fired up UED, being a mac guy and all. I'm not a mapper, everything I know about that stuff is what I've absorbed through osmosis lol.
I also do have a text dump of all marathon terminals. Let me know if you need that.
Hope that helps!
