Description   : Structural Mechanics Division at the Waterways
                Experiment Station in Vicksburg, MS.
                Violates every author's rule of not copying existing
                architecture, but this building isn't your typical
                office environment. This is a map of my workplace,
                with a few extra traps thrown in. The monsters
                are real.

Story         : The Strogg have taken over the Structural Mechanics
                Division (guardians of the free world). Your mission
                is to detonate all explosive testing devices within
                the SMD before the Strogg do it themselves. This will
                enable the SMD to get back to business as usual, and
                more importantly, allow you to claim primary authorship
                in a career-enhancing technical report.

Bugs/Problems : The work area of the building is too large and
                has far too much detail to be playable on a
                software-only system. It runs exceptionally well
                on a P300 w/256Mb and a Monster 3D II (duh), and
                pretty darn good on a P200/32Mb and a Monster 3D. I
                can't vouch for anything else.

                Func_train (crane) in smd2 makes no sound... working on
                it. Needs more ambient sound; just haven't found the
                right one yet.

                The multitudes of Q2 crates (which were thrown in
                primarily to help with r_speeds) will eventually
                be replaced with real SMD gizmos.

Installation  : 1) Create a directory \smd below your Quake2 directory.
                2) Unzip pak0.pak to the \quake2\smd directory.
                3) Play by using the command line
                quake2.exe +set game smd +map smd1

                I have no idea who the original author is.
