================================================================ Title : STAMPEDE Filename : STAMPEDE.WAD Author : Adrian Tineo Cabello Email Address : atineo@vnet.es Misc. Author info : I love 3D games and I love the DeathMatch experience. "QUAKE I NEED YOU" Description : FOR REGISTERED VERSION OF DOOM2 ONLY!! This wad was mainly designed for DeathMatch play. However, I don't like those "just-one -purpose" levels so you'll be able to play in one-player or cooperative. AND IT'S FUN!! Read the last section to know more about this WAD. Additional Credits to : Seba, my friend and usual DeathMatch opponent. You can see us in action in the demo included. John Romero and the rest of ID Software. I love your games. Keep it up! ================================================================ * Play Information * Number of map : Map1 Single Player : Yes Cooperative 2-4 Player : Yes but not tested. Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Sure :> Difficulty Settings : Yes New Sounds : No New Graphics : Yes. The skull of the menus has been replaced by the "megasphere".And there are also two new wall textures (check them!) New Music : I used another music from doom2. Now you'll hear the music from map 10 (one of the best in my opinion). I also changed the music in the end of level screen. Demos Replaced : Yes, 8 minutes of pure DeathMatch action. Type: doom2 -file stampede.wad -playdemo stampede Sorry, version is 1.666 Use F12 to see what my oponent is doing * Construction * Base : From Scratch Editors used : Edmap 1.40 to draw and build the level. Deu to place the enemies (I don't know why but with edmap the enemies don't shoot). "Doom extract/conversion/import utilities" to work with the new graphics included Build Time : Don't remember exactly but I think about 10 days or so Known Bugs : None * Copyright / Permissions * Authors MAY NOT use this level as a base to build additional levels.

The cool stuff is here) I don't like to press the spacebar to open a door or to operate a lift when I am in the middle of a chase. Most of the doors and the lift are activated by linedefs before them. This way the door will open without stopping your chase and the lift will be much faster to use. Look for false walls to discover secret paths or to make ambushes. However, I have tried to avoid those "attractive" spots in other DeathMatch wads to prevent the lucky player from staying there all the game with all the good items.For example, you are very vunerable when trying to get the blur sphere if there is someone watching. Look for linedefs that teleport you to secret areas. All the weapons are there.Most of them more than once. Some are more difficult to get than others. Remember that not all the switchs in DOOM have to be activated with the spacebar.Try shooting. This way you could be able to open a door in your room by shooting at a switch in another room through a hole in the wall (big tip here).You may think a place is good for hiding and that you can have at the same time a good weapon (I am referring here to the dark corner in the room next to the BFG9000). Well, you could be mistaken. That place is not that good because other players can know you are there if they are in the right place at the right time. I won't tell more about this. E-mail me to know the details. Sometimes, I like to play DeathMatch with enemies. They are there. Of course, you can always use the -nomonsters option for a true DeathMatch experience. Difficulty levels have been implemented, but an experienced doomer like you should not have any problems in the higher levels, should you? All these features have been included to improve gameplay, specially in DeathMatch. I would highly appreciate your comments about this WAD. E-mail me. Besides,I'd like to receive demos to see what cool things you, DeathMatchers, can do in this WAD (version 1.666 or 1.9, I donīt mind). Now, go to play this WAD and don't forget to worship the author :)
