Title : Temple of the Great Beetle Filename : vwtmpl.MAP Author : Edward "Scorpion" Davis Email Address : ebd@utk.edu Misc. Author Info : I'm a Geology major at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. I enjoy working on VW Beetles, and this level is an homage to my 1970 Beetle that was stolen in Spring of 1996. Description : ****This map will NOT run well in single player or cooperative mode on a 486/66 with only 8Mb of RAM. I tried. Sorry.**** This map is intended to represent the Temple of the followers of the Great Beetle. It has been taken over by the alien invaders, just as all of the rest of earth has. The trick to the level in single player is keeping enough ammo to defeat the cycloid emperor at the end. Also, finding the Devestator Weapon hidden under the temple triggers the spawn of the Cycloid emperor, and some people have difficulty finding its hidden room. Dukematches tend to center around the "seminar room" to the east of the main temple, because the RPG and Shrinker are in the restrooms there. Be sure to notice the handicapped acessable toilets =) See the WWW temple of the great beetle at http://funnelweb.utcc.utk.edu/~ebd/beetle.html you'll be glad you did. Additional Credits to : VW of America for providing us with those wonderful little cars for so many years, and those great guys at 3DRealms for bringing us DUKE3D. And my parents for buying me a pentium PC. =) ================================================================ * Play Information * Episode and Level # : E1M1 I guess. I spliced it into my user.con file at E1M11, but you can put it wherever you want. Single Player : Yes, but not well on a 486 unless it's FAST! DukeMatch Level : Yes, definitely. Hours of fun. Not too big, not to small. Difficulty Settings : Yes. It is really, really hard on hard, just from the numbers of troopers. My P100 with 16Mb RAM slows down. * Construction * Base : New level from scratch Editor(s) used : Run of the mill BUILD editor that came with DUKE3D. Known Bugs : You can get crushed by the doors in some places, especially the start up room. * Where to get this MAP file * FTP sites: BBS numbers: Other: When I wrote this the only place to get it was at my web site at http://funnelweb.utcc.utk.edu/~ebd/ or my friend Aaron's at http://www.people.memphis.edu/~uacgwin/ If you got it someplace else, please e-mail me at ebd@utk.edu I'd just like to know where my little level has gotten to.
