- Title : THE ENTRYWAY 1.2, 1st Level in The UNHOLY Series
- Copyright @1995 by John Walker IV
- (John W. Anderson can Copyright his :)
-
- Author : John Walker IV for DOOM II
-
- E-mail Address : unholy@primenet.com
-
- Other Files by Author : No previous levels to my name.
- : 31 levels to come in this Series (hopefully).
-
- Misc Author Info : DOOM fanatic...
- SPC in the US Army (92y) Unit Supply Specialist
-
- Additional Credits : My wife for her patience.
- : Paul Sterud for putting up with my anoying calls:
- "Dude, check out the wad now, I added another
- texture!!!"
- : A guy nicknamed ||BARON|| who I met on IRC (my
- first playtester who was a complete stranger).
- The next one will be out soon, I promise!
- : John W. Anderson for the disclaimer (it was his
- text file for ACHRON22 I borrowed for this and
- all future text files).
- : All the authors for all the editors and other
- utilities I used for creation.
- : Mark Riel for the "Unholy was here" patch. And for
- being patient with me while I tried to import it
- in the level.
- : Everyone at Id Software for allowing people like
- me to create my own world! Not to mention a great
- game! Hip Hip ...
- : Bishop for importing the title screen for me.
-
- Description : Uh, I'm still working on that. Maybe a storyline
- will give me a reason to actually release a v1.3.
- For now, though, use the same story id gave you.
-
- The level is meant to look like one single building.
- You might just notice the attention to detail I
- tried to take into account when creating the level.
- The outside of the building and anything else that
- might be exposed to weather has a stone, brick, or
- bronze texture. BUT, close inspections of the
- brick textures will show that those openly exposed
- to the outside are beaten and falling apart, while
- those inside the building still look new.
-
- Nothing much, but I though it was kind of clever :)
-
- Also, look how the outside walls above the red key
- are lower than the cage sections. Again, nothing
- much but I thought that was clever too.
-
- Instructions : Put UNHOLY01.WAD in your DOOM 2 directory, type
- "doom2 -file unholy01.wad -warp 01 -skill <#>"
-
- Disclaimer : I assume no responsibility for anything of any sort
- in any way, shape, or form--now, then, henceforeward
- in this life (or the next several) for any screw-ups
- or even minor inconveniences this PWAD causes you,
- your family, your relatives, friends, ancestors,
- associates, employers, pets, neighbors, lovers,
- congressional representatives, nor any other person--
- living, dead, or undead -- that you have or will ever
- have any contact with in even the slightest form.
- This PWAD has been tested and tested ad infinitum, so
- it shouldn't mess with your computer or anything else
- remotely associated with it. But if it DOES, then
- too damn bad. Don't come cryin' to me.

-
- v1.0 08/01/95 UNHOLY01.WAD First release for Doom 2.
-
- v1.1 08/05/95 UNHOLY01.WAD Finally got that damn "Unholy was
- here texture" to work. I was about
- ready to give up when DCK saved the
- day! Although, I had to run it in
- Windows mode and I messed with my
- config.sys and stacker got screwed
- up, and almost had to format my hard
- drive, and a smoked a carton of
- cigarettes in the process.....
-
- v1.2 UNHOLY01.WAD Added recommendation list to text
- file. Found the bug (Overload).
- Added a title screen that can be used
- in all my future levels.

- * Other WADs recommended by the Author *
-
-
- - The Church of Doom II (CHURCH.WAD)
- by Virgil Itliong (virgil@austin.ibm.com)
-
- I'm not quite sure why this was called church.wad and not grave.wad,
- it's more of a cemetary than anything else. Great construction in this
- wad, including features such as a musoleum <?> with a chaingunner...some-
- where, people burning at the stake, a church (small), and the most
- awesome exit I've ever seen. This wad is simply great. Oh, BTW, as soon
- as I contact the author, don't be surprised if you see that same sky
- texture in one of my future levels.
