NO fee or payment may be charged or accepted for this episode, but feel free to send me $$$, stocks, bonds and gratuitous flamez. HLZGATE & HLZALLEY are (C) James Atchison 1994 id and Doom are copyrights of Id Software, etc etc. DCK is copyright Ben Morris 1994 BSP is copyright Scott Wilson 1994 =========================================================================== Author's Comments: HLZGATE.WAD was originally started as a Classic DDOOM .wad and then converted to DOOM ][. It's setup for all modes and should be a worthy deathmatch level. If you don't do the route through this level correctly, an arch-vile will resurrect half the monsters on the level for you ok not quite that bad... but watch out. HLZALLEY.WAD is the alpha-test project for the **Doom Construction Kit** w/ Doom ][ support. DCK RULEZ ! READ THE DOCS ALREADY... and trust me you will like it better than *anything* else for actual dungeon designing. Love me some DCK action! Unfortunately the coder can't make $$$ off the work (?) so he's shelved any future releases. No Doom ][ support patch is available.. but you can try whinE-mail :) The level is meant to be brutal and unforgiving in the extreme. Do not attempt ultra violence unless you don't mind getting your ass kicked. If you are one of the few non-mouse players left.. let me give you a clue: get a mouse! Doom ][ is way too chunky without a fast 486 w/ 8 megs RAM and a fast video card. I can't wait to upgrade and play modoom at 28.8 :) This level should be equally entertaining as a coop or deathmatch level, but it is highly recommended that you learn the level first in single player mode. If you can complete this level in under 30 minutes you are a true doom god, but expect to spend an entire evening playing this level if its the first time. There are a few different routes through this level but I suggest you go left at the start. PS: no spider/cyber-demons or bfg's in any mode for either level. ===========================================================================
