=========================================================================== Archive Maintainer : Please delete cataboom.wad, the previous version Update to : cataboom.wad Advanced engine needed : Boom, prboom, or compatible Primary purpose : Single play =========================================================================== Title : Cataboom Reloaded Filename : catabom2.wad Release date : 25/3/2016 Author : Robert Phipps Email Address : lion.lucan@recursor.net Other Files By Author : phobos3.wad (part) Misc. Author Info : Part author with Colin Phipps of Phobos3 Description : A large single map of Roman catacombs, with a basically linear but folded progression. The theme is classical and funereal. It takes the author about 50 minutes at UV. Intricate passageways link feature rooms and the atmosphere is sombre with some nasty suprises. Wandering monsters can turn up in areas you thought you have cleared. It starts quietly, but you wake up the dead as you go. There are new sounds and graphics; in particular imps have been recast as mummies, exploding barrels are replaced by exploding urns, and all switches are levers. There are no "human" monsters or futuristic weapons. Being very large it is unsuitable for Deathmatch, you might never find eachother! Co-op is provided (but is not well suited to it). There were earlier, smaller Doom 1 and Doom 2 versions of this level :- 1Catabs, Catadoom and Cataboom, which you may come across. CATABOOM RELOADED is a significant upgrade that supersedes all those. There are now more ammo, additional features and fights, less chainsawing of lost souls, and more directional clues. =========================================================================== * What is included * New levels : 1 Sounds : Yes Music : From Doom 1 E1M6 Graphics : Yes Dehacked/BEX Patch : No Demos : 3 Other : No Other files required : None * Play Information * Game : DOOM2 Map # : Map01 Single Player : Designed for Cooperative 2-4 Player : Player starts only Deathmatch 2-4 Player : No Other game styles : None Difficulty Settings : Yes * Construction * Base : Improvement of cataboom.wad by same author, from scratch.
