OH, I remember him now! He e-mailed me a lot back in the day. I seem to recall being confused by his approach to releases, given that he tended to release stuff one map at a time rather than in coherent packs. I don't think I ever actually played any of his stuff, as I wanted to play it as a proper map pack.
Steve Long was/is a really cool individual. It was indeed several years ago that he put out a bunch of linked though generally unrelated maps as a large "pack" of sorts. Archsub was one of the maps. The pack was his initial foray into UnrealEd. He was primarily a mapping enthusiast for Duke Nukem as mentioned and Doom. I remember much as Scrag we exchanged some emails regarding his work and he was nice enough send me a cd with his Duke & Doom stuff.

Does anyone have any more information on these maps/pack?
edit: I seem to have found his duke nukem maps:
http://zzora.tripod.com/DukeMaps.rarDid Steve long make anything else of note?
edit: I just opened the zip file, it seems to be all of archsub, with the Duke maps stuck on the end. Maybe MMAN is right:

If so, is a re-review necessary? I'm guessing not as it sounds like the Duke maps are totally different from the archsub maps. will play and find out.
