================================================================ Title : Zman Deathmatch Collection One Filename : ZMANPAK1.WAD Author : Josh Straub Email Address : tookycat@richfield.com Misc. Author Info : Doom Freak. i pretty much know what's good and what's not when it comes to deathmatch levels - we have a local bbs with Game Connection.... ;) i live in the 414 area code so if you want to play doom, just email me about it. SINCE THIS IS MY FIRST ~RELEASED~ WAD, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE EMAIL ME TELLING ME HOW COOL I AM, HOW GOOD THEY ARE, OR WHAT A LOSER I AM. ;) THANKS! Description : This is a concatenation of some of the Best dm wads, and i have tested a LOT (i'd say about 500). These are all smaller ones for CONSTANT ACTION small enough for 2 player, but not cramped for 4 player. I just hate playing a collection and coming to these humongus levels where it takes hours to find each other. You wont find any large-marge type ones in here. There arent any super secret hiding spots (well, ok there is ONE ;) that usually wreck the game, as i hate those. There are some great new sounds and about half of the songs are replaced. The only ones without new songs are the ones with decent doom2.wad music. The sounds were put in for change of pace, and some humor (you'll see when you pick up a sphere :) Additional Credits to : Well i goose i have to name James Knight (Big-Red), and Jeff Gonyo (David Walker/Black Death), cuz they did play a lot of doom with me and we went through a lot of wads. Also, Keith Lipski (Frances Farmer) and Jimmy Mohr (Funky J), because they starred (hehe) in the demo. Plus, Ben Morris for writing DCK, but i wish he'd fix the crashing. The danzig writers for inspiring me to edit wads, and the other writers of the wads i used. And of course, id. ================================================================ * Play Information * Episode and Level # : Maps 01-07 Single Player : No Cooperative 2-4 Player : No Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Yes Difficulty Settings : Yes, most of them have it New Sounds : Yes New Graphic <--- : Yes (hehe) New Music : Yes Demos Replaced : 2 of 'em! One, Zman.lmp is a 2 player DeathMatch starting on level 2. I included it only because of how nice lmps pkZIP down like 1/10 of the size. Also, the good one, i made a 3 player demo starting on level 1, and it went to level 2, where someone got cut off, thus ending the demo :(. However, it is a really great demo, although i must say we did setup that gut shot by me in the beginning with berserk ;) I am green in all demos, Indigo is Keith Lipski in both, brown is Jimmy Mohr. * Construction * Base : Concatenated wads (see list below), i also included their .txt files to sorta compensate for stealing their wads :D It's called THEIRTXT.ZIP (delete it right away if you want, theres nothing you haven't seen already) Editor(s) used : DCK 2.2 for it's nice Wad Utilities, Easywad11 for managing my large wad collection Known Bugs : None! woo hoo!

It is 1/4 of 30, 7 levels. I will come out with Zmanpak2 through 4. Each one will have a few things the others didnt have, so you can be really cool and use all 4 of them at once for a 32 level super conversion. For example, i will put in a new sky in a later Zmanpak, so when you use them all together, the new sky will be in all levels. Levels 31,32 in zmanpak4 will be different from the rest, but you'll have to wait until i get some more good wads to use for a Zmanpak. Look for Zmanpak*.zip at the listed locations!! Thank you for using Zmanpak (and for reading this file, i know it is long but it took me like 2 hours to write, after looking at the files again to find out where i got my stuff :) Josh Straub “¨“ (Tooky Cat)
