How to play / where to get all the Doom 64 Absolution content

[Cursed Lemon]

Hey guys, so I'm having a bitch of a time trying to consolidate/access all the old Doom 64 Absolution content. I know a lot of it is compiled in Nevander's Retribution release, but that is specifically missing the following elements:

 

1. The additional secret content in the normal game levels in Absolution
2. "The Reckoning" map pack by Steven Searle
3. One-off maps including Waste Processing, Mining Front, Temple Grounds, and Temple Ruins
4. The extra unfinished maps Control, Derelict, and Forge from the Outcast Levels (which apparently were ported to Doom 64 EX?)
5. The additional enemy types

 

I have the base Absolution game, but is there some kind of central repository for all the extra stuff that got added to Absolution over the years or something?

I’m only familiar with these maps in a finished state from Nevander’s mod - he finished the levels himself and included them amongst the other Outcast levels.

There were actually quite a lot of single custom maps for Absolution, they were just released without any real attention. Quite a few interesting ones in there too when I played them. A lot of those were just quietly released on sites like wadsinprogress, some of which I stumbled upon too late as their download links were dead.
