This is a DooM .LMP "Competition" Entry - Please forward it... E1M8-NM1.TXT E1M8-NM!.TXT E1M8-NM1.ZIP E1M8-NM!.ZIP E1M8-NM!.LMP - NightMare! ( CAN handle it! :-) Recorded using "The Ultimate DooM" DooM -PlayDemo with Ultimate DooM OR DooM -PlayDemo with DooM Ver. 1.9 DooM - Ep.1 Mi.8 - Phobos Anomaly Kills > 100% (Items ???) Secrets ??% and Time 04:01 Approx. ----- Description :-) Yes! You read that right... The Final Mission of Knee Deep in the Dead - with swarming pinkoes, invisables plus the Two Barons - on -Skill 5, NightMare !!! BUT that has *NEVER* been done before ?!? (Or has it ? ;-)... MY One and probably, Only Truely Amazing DooM .LMP -Record'ing !?! All Hail, the Most Magnificent, S.;-) I really do not know what made me look at this particular mission - probably having 2 times the ammo. available - but I descided to give it a serious crack !! Actually, it's not that difficult ;-) Anyway, I have done this mission "impossibility" and it only took 23 "non-trivial" (getting killed in the first 2 minutes) attempts and most of those were taken up determining a decent strategy ;-) This is NO fluke !! I can repeat this performance and I have more .LMP's to "prove it" !! This is just the first time I did it... I shoot the barrels then slowly pistol whip the remaining pinkoes only for one to respawn - ignore it and frag on. I dodge the next pair to get the Chain-Gun. I screw up and take *all* of the boxes of bullets ( Oh dear, it's not going well ;-) before grabbing the ShotGun and then "Wall Running" ( Another -Record'ing first ? ;-) to the button. This was disorientating - I don't manage to escape them ;-( I make it to the Star Arena with a little more than 100% health but much less than 100% armour ;-( Then Run and Hide ! :-) I shoot towards the Barons to keep the situation active. When the barrels blow, run for some health, twice. Amazingly (? ;-) one of the Barons gets fragged early... Race on to kill the other Baron! Dodge around *big-time* and eventually fragged the bugger and the walls came down :-) I'd just made it ? Almost ! Next, remember to get out of the way of those respawned pinkoes behind ! [ The last time I got this far - I fell off backwards, screaming "YES !" and the buggers chewed me to death - "What The ? SH*T !" ] Frag 'em ! And so... E1M8-NM!.LMP =8-O DONE ! :-) What do I win for this ?!? As far as the D2I DHT-exams are concerned, [ Maybe I'll give it a go ] that's another possible level. Now I don't have an awful lot of experience of playing DooM at this NightMare difficulty but, I would only really rate it as a "medium" level. Once you've fluked it through the initial stages it really ain't too difficult :-) Am I really the First Ever person to complete this task ?!? :-) S.;-) S.Widlake s.widlake@rl.ac.uk PS. Where do I sign up for The "Hoof was Definitely Wrong" Club ?
