================================================================== ================================================================== The Ancient City of KEDRON ================================================================== FILENAME: kedron.map (version 1.1) AUTHOR: Jeff Butler (a.k.a. jOOk) E-MAIL: jOOk@ten.net ================================================================== At the foothills of the Tuskarora Mountain Range lies the ancient city of Kedron. Once a thriving last chance before the moutains, Kedron was a city given over to much sport. The Water-Knights & Sea-stallions doing battle in the watery arena before the crowds, the bards entertaining thousands from the outdoor theatre, Kedron appealled to many. No one knows what happened to Kedron. It lies in ruins, slowly giving in to the wind. ================================================================== Well over 300 revisions have gone into Kedron! Extreme dukematch testing with 4 people over local area network shows Kedron to be a tightly designed map. It's got great variety in play. Sometimes crowded with 2, but roomy with 4, Kedron is not for the weak in heart, or in processor power. The intricate detail and shading of many! sectors slows the framerate down at one spot in the map. But dang it, this space is a cool space. I just couldn't cut back on the number of sectors and get the effect I was looking for. This level requires hairy & manly pentiums. I wouldn't want to play it on less than a P66. I certainly won't be getting any awards for considering framerate, but if you want to play in some really cool space, then this map is for you. There is a story to be found by anyone with a half decent imagination just by running around Kedron. It is well spent framerate. ================================================================== SINGLE PLAYER? : Why? DUKEMATCH? : That's the point. CO-OP PLAY? : Nah. DIFFICULTY SETTINGS? : How good are you? BASE : Without a doubt, this level was inspired by Anslem X. Do yerself a favor. It's worth the trip. He's good. http://home.earthlink.net/~rtravis1/ EDITOR USED : Build KNOWN BUGS : Roaches, a few boweevils, & lots of mosquitos (that water arena, you know). Make sure you blow open the wall and get the chain gun. (?) FOR NEW USERS : To play this level, copy the file kedron.map into your Duke Nukem 3D directory.

Nestled away in the mountains above Kedron lies the sister city of KEDAR. A city of ice and snow, the trader village of Kedar is 50 miles from the nearest glacier. This level will freeze you in your tracks! ================================================================== ==================================================================
