Title : Halls of Death (Episode of deathmatch wads) Filename : hallsALL.wad Author : Jan Ignatius, Osku Salerma Email Address : osku@muncca.fi Description : These levels are designed especially for deathmatch. They're great fun at even two players games, but with a LOT of playtesting we have found out that the more players you have, the more fun :) Note: We removed the jails from level 6 and modified the lava pit so you can get up from it. We also included extract.bat, which extracts the sounds from hallsall.wad and inserts them permanently into doom.wad. It requires that dmaud is in the doom directory. Run the bat from doom directory. You still aren't allowed to spread them, though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | Note to ftp-site administrators: Please delete halls1-6.zip, it's an | | older version of this. | | Also delete halls1-9.zip and halls19.zip when encountered. | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Additional Credits to : Raphael Quinet, Colin Reed, for making deu and bsp. Jari Lanteri, for converting the music on levels e1m3 and e1m9. And all the other music authors, whose midi files we picked out of a large midi-collection. We also changed them a bit to make them sound better on GUS. (Oskus note: I don't have a gus :)) * Play Information * Episode and Level # : E1M1, E1M2, E1M3, E1M4, E1M5, E1M6, E1M7, E1M8, E1M9 Single Player : Yes ( If you use idspispopd to exit and iddqd ( to survive, and idkfa to get ammo ;-) ) Cooperative 2-4 Player : Yes Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Yes Difficulty Settings : Yes New Sounds : Yes New Graphics : Yes New Music : Yes Demos Replaced : All Level-specific notes: E1M1: There's a prison in this level. If you walk over certain linedefs you'll teleport to prison. You can't see out from there, but your enemies WILL see you from outside, and then it's just a matter of seconds until you're dead. So, run carefully ;-) E1M4: There IS a way to exit on your own, but it's too hard for you to figure out :) The first one to mail us a demo showing how he/she does it gets his/her name on the next release of Halls of Death :) Also, the first one to walk thru a certain doorway to a specific direction gets teleported to a place where there is a lot of goodies around. Including BFG. BUT, only one person can get there, and then it's gone forever.. E1M2: The only weapons on medium/hard difficulty level are chaingun and shotgun. At easy level, there's also a rocket launcher included. E1M8: This level is actually a co-operative level, but we decided to include it anyway :) You can still play it in deathmatch, though, it's just not as good in deathmatch as in co-op. E1M9: To exit press the button behind the plasma, and three areas ( secret lifts :)) will go down, and you must jump down with them to the maze, where you will find the exit switch. ) * Construction * Base : All new levels by us..
