=============================================================================== Title : ROBV.WAD Authors : Robert Reid, Vimal Vijayapalan. Email Address : wreid@iconnect.net.au Misc. Author Info : We live in Portland, Victoria, Australia etc and are both 15 and a half years old. Description : One very big level, with anything and everything we could think of in it that we could get to work or wasn't too hard to put in it. This is our first WAD, and probably one of our only ones. I don't like imps, so we didn't put many in, but instead put lots of Cacodemons (I like them). There is an oil rig in it, and a few open spaces. We designed it with everything in mind, including multiplayer and deathmatch, although it is fairly easy on multiplay, maybe we should add another Cyberdemon. After you've played this level, E-Mail us and tell us what you think of it. History : This map was originally created for Doom 1 because we only had an old editor and was E1M1. It was started early in 1995, and because it was only for Doom 1 it only had a few different types of monsters. We then stopped working on it for a while, so not much was done on it for a long time. Then we got a new editor and resumed work on the WAD, so it was converted to MAP01 and ran under Doom 2, so all the monsters and other items were revised to make it better. On 16 Dec 1995, it had a proper ending added to it, so I guess it was sort of finished then, however the map will keep having revisions added to it forever. This version was finished 10 Jul 1996 when we finally finished it and fixed up all the bugs. Additional Credits to : Geoff Allan for his superb doom editor, and ID Software for creating Doom and Doom 2. =============================================================================== * Play Information * Episode and Level # : MAP01 (Doom 2) Single Player : Yes Cooperative 2-4 Player : Yes Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Yes Difficulty Settings : Well, Yes, Sort of.

Build Time : FAR TOO BLOODY LONG, oh, um, I mean a little longer than I hoped.
