Help for MOutpost.bsp - Military Outpost by Charlie Birtwistle
===================================================================
This map is part 1 of a 2 map unit. The second level, caverns.bsp
is still in development by myself and may be 3-5 weeks before it is
completed depending on how much real work I have.
Therefore when you finish this map you will probably get something like
'file not found "caverns.bsp"' or something similar until you download
the second installment....
Plot
=====
The Strogg have built a Military Outpost with nuclear capabilities...
After we teleport you in, launch the missles into space so we can
capture them and call in the air strike before exiting through an
underground cave system.

* Construction *
Base : None
Editor(s) used : Worldcraft 1.6a, MS Wordpad (for bug checks)
Known Bugs : A whole damn lot of stuff disappears all
over the place if you're running in software
because the quake engine cannot handle the
amount of faces present in some of the rooms
in my level. This can result in walls, doors,
exploding objects, trains and an all manner
of other stuff disappearing making the level
unplayable. If you're playing in openGL however
NOTHING AT ALL disappears..

================================================================
* Additional Notes *
- This level is for the Gl version of Quake2 only! It doesn't work
properly in software.
- When you are playing this level make sure you have 8-bit textures
turned ON (YES) this drastically improves the frame-rate.
- A few features I would have liked to included never made it into the
map, like having huge flames coming out of the rockets when they took
off :( sorry.
- I want feed back on this map! Send all comments and suggestions to
Birty@hotmail.com even if its just to say "I've played it" because
I would like to know what I should do to improve my skills.
- A simple point but nevertheless important- if its too difficult play
on a lower skill level (PLEASE DON'T CHEAT).
- The multi-player aspect of this map is not tested and as a result may
not work :(.
================================================================
* How to play this map *
Extract the .bsp and .txt file to Quake2/baseq2/maps (Create this
directory if it doesn't exist. Run Quake2, pull down the console with
the ~ (tilde) key and type "map moutpost".
"Easy" skill setting is ment for novices/newbies.
"Medium" caters for the average Q2 player.
"Hard" separtes the men from the boys.
