UAC_LH.TXT - This text file. Disk Space Required : 400 kilos Author : Michael Lundy Posting From : doesn't matter Email Address : I don't really use the email address. Misc. Author Info : Even though I am only 14 years old, I have built and uploaded over 10 DOOM WADs. I am a veteran at designing levels, and I have taught myself to pay close attention to detail, playability, size, and other things. I shoud also remember that naming my WADs is also important. I learned that after giving the name for one of my levels, "Wicked Barons & Spectres". Isn't that stupid?! Other WADs By Author : I'm too lazy to list all the WADs I made, so here's some of them... Gorilla Gore Water Flood Get Your Gun! Wicked Barons & Spectres 107 sounds from my mic Houses 1.3 Deathmatch by Mike (Including Beavis & Butt-head's house!) ...Again, I wrote a lot more, but a few were compilations of other ones. * WAD Description * Brief Description : GIANT level for DOOM one Cool Stuff : + VERY big. over 3,100 linedefs. + Also uses over 530 sectors when polygons are left unshared. + Check out the light hellspawn that comes out of my initials! + Have you ever seen quality and quantity together in a WAD before? WAD Info in More Detail : First, It started when I was playing Fava Beans for DOOM. Their level designs kicked ass! It made mine look like butt soup! So I tried to make a level that would meet up to it. You know this level is big if I told you that I first drew this on a 24 x 36 sheet of paper. This level is based more around episode 1 because I liked its gameplay and level design a lot. So I decided to make a level like episode 1. Story Line : After going through just about every hellspawn you could go through, A message through your radio tells you to reort to Phobos, because a hell passage has been opened at the Phobos base. The guys from UAC want you to get those monsters cleared out before they screw everything up. They also want you to check out these two strange symbols picked up from recon that seem o be spawning some minor demons. You are the only hope of saving this base. Might Not Run With : DOOM versions lower than 1.4 beta Big Thanks to : Jason Hoffoss for DMapEdit 4.0.11 Id Software Additional Credits to : Oliver Montanuy for DeuTex 3.6 Zink the Dink for EnDOOMer 1.0.1 Raphel Quinet for DEU 5.21 *--------------------------------------------------------------* * Play Information * Game : DOOM Level(s) Replaced : E1M1 Single Player : Yes Cooperative 2-4 Player : Yes Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Yes Difficulty Settings : Yes New Sounds : No New Graphics : No. No Cheesy title screen this time.

The ending screen. * Level Specs * Level File Size : About 355 kilobytes Level Area Size : 6,288 by 5,200 pixels big. Number of Sectors : Over 530 unmerged, over 315 when merged. * Construction * Base : New WAD from scratch Main Editor(s) used : DMapEdit 4.0.11 Other Editor(s) used : DeuTex 3.6, EnDOOMer 1.0.1 Build Time : A month Known Bugs : None. Other Problems : Because the level is big, and has a lot of outside connections, It is very choppy and slow, especially on my 386DX. Gameplay speeds up towards the end, though. Future Improvements : Maybe in the future, I'll put this into an episode. * Installation * Put the WAD in your DOOM directory, bla bla bla! Required to Have in Dir : Just DOOM. * Troubleshooting * Problem: It kicks me out and says something about an unknown linetype 117 when I open a small door. Solution: Upgrade to a version of 1.4 beta or higher. I recommend upgrading straight to ULTIMATE DOOM. * Copyright / Permissions * Authors may NOT use this WAD as a base to build additional WADs.
