- Title : QUEST
- Filename : QUEST.WAD
- Author : E. Plaggenmarsch
- Email Address : plaggenm@cs.utwente.nl (till june 95).
- Misc. Author Info : My 4th, but first real big WAD.
-
- Description : There are two countries which are fighting for
- several centuries now. The first one is ruled
- by some evil baron, and is very big. It has
- a lot of 'people' living in it, and has developed
- some quite good weapons, which are used to kill
- almost all the people from the other country.
- These weapons are hidden in the main fortress,
- which it good defended by all sorts of creatures
- and some good mazes. The other country has also
- a secret weapon: YOU! The emporer of your country
- asked you to go on a quest: find all the weapons
- that we don't have yet. Depending on the number
- of creatures defending the fortress there should
- be three or four weapons. Once you've found them
- return to your country and report to the emporer.
- To make sure you search the castle thoroughly, you
- need to find the lost yellow keycard to be able to
- return to your own country.
-
- This level was mainly created to build a good
- looking level, with a nice big hall and one big
- interesting puzzle. I didn't do much trouble
- placing monsters, but I did implement the
- difficulty settings. Unfortunatly most monsters
- get alive after you shoot a couple of times, so
- don't be afraid to find all monsters, sooner or
- later they will find you.

- * Construction *
-
- Base : New level from scratch
- Editor(s) used : DEU 5.21
- Build Time : About 50 hours (or a lot more?).
- Known Bugs : None, of course. Maybe some features, but no
- bugs. One of the features I know of is the
- alignment of textures in the X-direction. This
- was far too much work.
-
- * Copyright / Permissions *
-
- Authors MAY use this level as a base to build additional
- levels. But if you do so, it would be just a little more work
- to mention my name somewhere as the original author. Wouldn't it?
-
- You MAY distribute this WAD, provided you include this file, with
- no modifications. You may distribute this file in any electronic
- format (BBS, Diskette, CD, etc) as long as you include this file
- intact.
-
- -- It could be interesting to place monsters the way you like it. Because
- this one part I didn't really liked to do, so it happened very quick
- and not really good. If you want to do so, it could be smart to delete
- all monsters first and then find out how the level works exactly, before
- you place your own monsters. It would be even smarter to find a copy of
- the file QUEST_EM.WAD which is the same wad file as QUEST.WAD but with
- no monster and so on. Just ask for it and maybe I'll post it.
-
