HOLP3 - Volume 1

For Unreal Tournament 3

The aim of HOLP is to provide Unreal Tournament 3 levels with high quality gameplay and performance, and oldskool UT visuals. This pack is not meant to rival the graphics found in the retail UT3 levels, using limited bloom, normal maps and clutter.

A big thanks goes to all those who donated to keep our previous host up and running earlier this year, and to Barballs for providing us with that support. We couldn't have done it without you guys, so thankyou for keeping the HOLP team together and making the maps you (will hopefully) enjoy playing! :)
