You MAY distribute this PWAD, provided you include this file, with no modifications. not just the wad, but the zip file that includes the music, the textures, and definition files,etc. You may distribute this file in any electronic format (BBS, Diskette, CD, etc) as long as you include this file intact and the entire zip, not just the wad file music is copyrighted you can play around with the textures if you want, i made most of them in paint shop pro 7 * Where to get this PWAD * ftp.cdrom.com Me http://www.muzakfiend.com/pages/loki * Important Notes * loki's realm was started 8 years ago and finished once in 1999 as 'nightmares of loki.' now... its back under more heavy construction with hi-res graphics, more detail, MP3 music soundtrack, full 3d models (instead of cheap sprites) and a completely new plot (that wasn't thought up as-written in "dehacked" in less than 2 minutes, more like 2 months off and on, and its still not finished) Enjoy and Thanks! http://www.muzakfiend.com/ http://www.muzakfiend.com/pages/muzak2 http://www.muzakfiend.com/pages/hatechild http://www.muzakfiend.com/pages/loki Step 2 1/2. Sky flaw error ok its uploaded and i can't overwrite it : (~ there's just one tiny problem with the level that ONLY matters if you want to see the blue sky instead of the orange sky reason: this map WAS map05 but i changed it to map01 for easier play as a demo level, but map01 is set to sky1, not sky2 if you're familiar with jdoom, all you have to do is change sky1 to sky2 in map01 if you're not... here goes: (note: this is completely optional) 2 1/2 - 1. go to the DEFS/JDOOM directory - 2. open "maps.ded" with notepad (or wordpad if too big) - 2. find the map settings for MAP01 - 2. change the sky from sky1 to sky2 - 5. save it, now go back up to step 3
