=================================================================== Title : CYBERDICK (01CYBRDK.WAD) DeathMatch for DOOM 2 Note : This is a DeathMatch wad for the newer versions of Doom 2...................................... It will not work with Doom 1.................. or The Ultimate Doom. Release date : 7-20-96 Author : Daniel Huff other wads by me : 01phbwar.wad 02phbwar.wad 01jmp4it.wad 01fragem.wad 01arnd.wad 01mratlt.wad 01gorry.wad 01mkstnd.wad email Address : nextday@qni.com Description : DOOM 2 DEATHMATCH WAD Small, circular fast paced wad, leading to VERY high frag counts. Equal weapons, and ammo are available to each player, (no king of the hill possible in this wad!!!!!!...). All starting points have at least the Super Shotgun. There are no places to hide, (no camping allowed!!!, ....... frag or get fraged!!!) The exit room is easy to find and identify, (so mistakes of an early exit should not occur, even with some of your Forest Gump type buddies !!!). Credits : The makers of Doom, the best game ever! : Also, to Shiloh Jennings, the author of junk.wad, for the basic layout and some good ideas; junk.wad is available from, http://www.cdrom.com And to John Braun for the encouragement to build Doom 2 wads, and for alot of good ideas too, thanks JB! ================================================================ * Play Information * 01cybrdk.wad : 44600 bytes Map # : MAP09 Deathmatch 2-4 Player : YES! DEFINATELY MADE FOR THIS! (KILL) cooperative 2-4 Player : Yes (...wimps can play this one too!) single Player : Yes (...if you want practice) Difficulty Settings : YES new sounds : No (turn on your stereo, let's ROCK!) new graphics : No (...no slow downs here) * Construction * Base : CYBRDICK.WAD (for Doom 1, by me) Editor used : Ed209 version 1, BSP 4.x, and Zennode Equipment used : A homemade 386, 33, with 5 megs ram. Known Bugs : None ================================================================= * Difficulty Settings * Skill level 1-2 : Super Shotgun, Berserk, and Chainsaw Monsters on 1-2 : 8 Imps Skill level 3 : Super Shotgun, Plasma gun, Rocket launcher, Berserk, and Chainsaw Monsters on 3 : 13 Imps and 2 Revenants Skill level 4-5 : Super Shotgun, Plasma gun, Rocket launcher, Berserk, and Chainsaw Monsters on 4-5 : 13 Imps, 2 Revenants and 2 Cyberdemons Note..... : This wad contains no Chain gun or BFG, if you don't like that,....... TOUGH!, change it yourself!. What difficulty level you choose, depends on your DeathMatch taste; if you don't like monsters, at all, in a Deathmatch, then choose, (*) no monsters, in your DeathManager program. The (two) Cyberdemon(s) will follow you all over the level. I designed this level so the Cyberdeamon(s) could not stand at a lower spot than you, shooting their rockets into the walls, allowing you to waste him, (or them) from above. The other monsters, serve only one purpose, to give the two Cyberdeamons another target to fire at, allowing you to escape, sometimes; but watch you back, because, the other Cyberdemon is hunting you and your opponent. ================================================================ This is my challange to everyone on the Internet and anyone else who reads this text file.----- In order to promote better wad files,- (ever downloaded one that just don't work at all, or runs so slow it's like playing in peanut butter, or it has so many missaligned textures, or worst yet, the same texture through-out the wad,.... that it makes you want to puke!) I offer the following: (Not a new idea; I've heard of others doing the same.) 1. Use this wad as a base to build your own wad, (I encourage you to to so; Don't even ask me!; just change it, - anyway you want. Distribute it any- where and everywhere, and in any format you want, for profit or for free!. And also, I challange all other wad authors to do the same!, (after all, the majority of us don,t get paid for making wads anyway!; so not letting anyone use your wad as a base, is really just an ego trip;---Isn't it? !!!). ...............Too Bad--So Sad!!.................. At least beginners would have a good place to start; then mabe we won't have to wade through as many bad wads, to find the good ones! This concept should eventually make all the wads offered, on the Net, better. 2. After you have completed your new wad, (using mine as a base), put your name on it, take full credit for it! -You don't need to mention my name anywhere, (but I would be happy if you did so, in your text file; but it's not manditory!). Just remember, your new wad will have YOUR NAME on it, so just make sure its better than mine!, or else what's the point!!!!! 3. If you want different weapons placement or different monsters, in different places, I would encourage you to download ED209, (probably the easiest wad editor to use, to change, weapons, monsters and textures). (You can do most of the weapons and monster changes in less than 5 minutes!). - If you noticed, I also used a program called Zennode. Zennode is not needed to build or change wads, it just helps to speed up the wad a little. --- All of these fine programs are available, as Shareware, many places on the Net. 4. If your wad has any bugs, even just a small one, that's hard to find, even if your looking for a mistake, then, don't put it on the Net!. Fix it first, or get some help to fix it, or delete it!!!. People can forgive you for making boring wads once in a while, but not defective, ugly, trash. (I go over my wads in great detail before releasing them; we also play test em for weeks, sometimes months, working on the layout, weapons and monsters, ect. I would be totally ashamed of some of the garbage that's on the Net, if my name was attached to it. You have to be a perfectionist, to produce even a boring wad that works good, without bugs; even a bad wad takes a little time and effort to make, so why go to all the time and trouble........... to produce garbage!!!! ================================================================ * Copyright Permissions * Authors MAY use 01cybrdk.wad, as a base to build their own wad or wads, providing they give their wad or wads a name other than 01cybrdk.wad or cybrdick.wad.
