The contents of this document are as correct and complete as we could manage. Given the nature of the fact that Q3Test2 is a technological demo and not a full-featured game we had to resort to educated guesses in some cases. In others, well we flat out had no clue. If anyone reading this has any additions, corrections, or anything else to add please e-mail us so we can make this document complete.
