- *** BUG FIX ***
-
- Note: Despite several hours of testing, I just found a small but
- deadly bug in the revised version of epic being distributed with
- epic2.wad. The problem was a small segment of a larger line chain
- wasn't linked to a sector. The result is that the action defaults to
- a local sector, creating an undesirable effect. This bug occurs in
- the left side of the ledge behind the "dead boss brain" wall in the
- room off the elevator on the secret staircase (NW room of MAP01).
- Only the area closest to the ledge is affected (thus the reason it
- wasn't noticed during testing). Epic2a.wad has a fixed version of
- epic. Please download epic2a instead of epic2.

- EPIC 2

- *** General Info ***
-
- EPIC2.WAD for DOOM2 is a sequel to the popular EPIC.WAD. Like the original,
- it was designed for single player mode. Nonetheless, all levels of
- difficulty, and all modes are supported. This release of EPIC2.WAD also
- includes the latest revision of the original EPIC.WAD. Enhancements to
- EPIC.WAD include better deathmatch and cooperative support, all levels of
- difficulty, more beasties, and more surprises. If you liked EPIC.WAD, then
- you'll want to download this just for the revisions, but you'll probably
- enjoy the sequel as well.

- *** Technical Info ***
-
- Editors: Waded 1.83, DMapEdit
- Base: New levels from scratch
- Build Time: Time Sucks!
- Known Bugs: None that haven't been accounted for (you'll
- experience the mother of all HOM's if you clip to
- the "restricted" areas around the Mayan temple in
- EPIC2 - it's a very complex structure). If you
- don't clip, you won't see it, so don't clip!
- There's nothing out there but trees anyway. There
- are several lines in EPIC2 which I have purposely
- left off the map. This is for effect, and is
- intentional.
