README 15 June 1997 WHAT YOU JUST RECEIVED: ======================= You have just received the "Lite" version of the qED Rapid Development 3D Level Editor (Note: qME and qART are not included with the qED-Lite package). For Windows-95/Windows-NT4 only. Just run the SETUP program and follow the instructions. qED Level Editor ---------------- This is the first tool in our kit that you should access and learn. It is extensively documented. EVERYONE should go to the PRIMER first! There is a Quick-Start section designed just for 3D Level Lords and other experienced designers. For everyone else we strongly urge you to go through the whole Primer, it is absolutely the fastest way to become productive with qED and the whole process of creating your own 3D worlds. This "Lite" version supports all the features of the full product, but limits the number of brushes that can be utilized in a map. This allows you to sample this excellent application and learn the basics of 3D game map design, without any risks or costs to you. Once you decide to move into serious map creation simply purchase the full version of the program to remove all limitations. Visit our WEB site for current purchase information and options. NOTE: You are not allowed to copy, distribute, and/or publish any of these programs, not even the "Lite" products included herein! NOTE: This release includes ENTITIES for TeamFortress/CTF (tm), Hipnotic (r), and Rogue (r) Mission Pack / Add-Ons to the basic Quake (r) game. You should not use these entities in your map unless you have the relevant Mission Pack or Add-On features installed in your Quake directory.
