1. Print out INSTALL.DOC with Word 95 if you have it
(everything will be formatted nicely. If you are using Notepad
and INSTALL.TXT, some big white spaces may appear in the
middle of the page.
2. Read the instructions in this text file before you try to
copy or use any of the levels, programs, or walkthrus
included on the CD.
This CD has no automatic installation routine. You must read the
instructions included in INSTALL.TXT (this document) to
properly install and run the new levels, applications, and walkthrus
on the CD. If you're familiar with copying and loading levels and
walkthrus (demos), you can skip a lot of this material.

Welcome to the DEATHMATCH MANIFESTO BONUS CD!
This free CD contains over 150 of the best multiplayer levels in
existence. In addition, you'll find complete video walkthrus for
every level in Ultimate DOOM, DOOM II, Duke Nukem 3D:
Atomic Edition, and Quake. An added bonus is the inclusion of
Mplayer's client/sign-up software for joining the growing world of
Mplayer and multiplayer Internet combat.
Sybex is pleased to provide you with over 150 of the best
Dukematch and Deathmatch levels available. These new, custom
levels for Duke Nukem 3D and Quake, which often took weeks to
put together, were designed strictly for multiplayer mayhem.
Appendix C lists all the talented level designers who gave Sybex
permission to include their levels in this book. These joes busted
ass to create these levels; their hard work and generosity is
appreciated. If you like a level, see who built it in Appendix C and
drop 'em a line by email. These "level lords" are always looking
for new ideas and suggestions. Keep an eye out for more work
from these designers.
Also included on this CD are complete walkthrus of every level in
Quake, Duke Nukem Atomic edition (Duke Nukem 3D and the
Plutionium Pak levels), and walkthrus from DOOM II. Steffen
"Duke Addict" Itterheim burnt the candle at both ends for a few
weeks to provide these awesome, useful walkthrus. Fire up a
walkthru of your favorite Deathmatch level in any of these games,
pop a cold one, and watch the show. You'll learn where every
weapon is located, where to ambush campers waiting to ambush
you, the secrets in every level, and all the best sniper spots.
In case you've got some old DOOM levels lyin' around collecting
dust, fire up the WAD2DUKE program on this CD to convert your
DOOM levels to Duke 3D levels. WAD2DUKE and DUKEVIEW,
both included in the Duke Editor folder, were generously donated
by Matt Tagliaferri, author of The Official Duke Nukem 3D Level
Design handbook (1996, Sybex Books). If you haven't messed
around with Duke 3D levels, be sure to check out the DUKEVIEW
program
Another big bonus on this CD is the inclusion of Mplayer's sign-up
software. If you're tired of annhilating everyone at the office and
are looking for a real challenge, hook up with Mplayer. Chances
are they're harborin' some serious gamers looking for suckers like
you.

NOTE: Some of the levels included on the Bonus CD require
additional files to work. These levels are located in their own
special subdirectory under D:\DUKE\. Check out
the README.TXT file for each of these special levels for
instructions on placing the additional files.
1.Place the Plutonium Pak or Atomic Edition CD in the CD ROM

Plutonium Pak or the Atomic Edition, not to worry. These levels
will still work. (You don't need to put any CD in the CD-ROM
drive because you won't have it).
2. Copy the level or levels you'd like to play to the Duke Nukem
3D directory. This directory is usually C:\DUKE3D on your hard
drive.
3. In DOS, move to the DUKE3D directory (or wherever Duke
Nukem 3D is located). Usually this is C:\DUKE3D.
4. At the DOS prompt, type:
C:\DUKE3D>duke3d map <nameofmap>
If you want to play the BODY.MAP, for example, you would type:
C:\DUKE3D>duke3d map body
Simple!
