================================================================ Title : A New Force Date Finished : 5/31/1999 Filename : VOLTRN.ZIP (212K) Author : anonymous Email Address : anonymous Target Audience : Fans of VOLTR0N cartoon (Lions version) Description : The sounds of bombs and lasers jar you from your sleep! Perhaps yet another invasion force from Planet Doom! Where is Voltr0n to stop this menace? Take your lowly pistol and do what you can to save the people of Arus AND stay alive! May you bring honor upon your house and village.... Files in : 187K VOLT.MAP user map package 587K TILES014.ART new art, essential to level 0K VOLT.BAT runs VOLT.MAP - regular difficulty 0K VOLTHARD.BAT runs VOLT.MAP - hard difficulty 0K IGIVEUP.BAT runs VOLT.MAP - in easy (cheat) mode 4K VOLTRN.TXT (this text file) 18K SOUNDS.MAP cheap map for sampling all Duke sounds -"VOLTHARD" is winnable, but tough (for the author). It adds a few extra twists that make it cooler than the regular version. -The "IGIVEUP" option is for the player who is fed up and just wants to see the rest of the level, at the expense of the theme and game balance. -UnZIP the package of files into your Duke3d directory and make sure the tiles014.art overwrites any existing file by that name, or else the level will run with the wrong art. Hints: The viewscreens contribute to the plot so don't skip them unless you're familiar with them. To see them, you'll need the game display window to be fairly well sized. You'll want to use the 'run' function at least once. If the end seems odd, you probably blew up something without realizing it (sort of a bug). Be courteous to ladies. Additional Credits to : Thanks Gene D. and Mark W. for playtesting! Thx to S.Itterheim for compiling Buildfaq09 or I wouldn't have even been able to make a door that opens. ================================================================ New level MAP : Yes; not an add-on or patch Required To Have In Dir : tiles014.art in Duke3d dir (minimum) * Play Information * Episode and Level # : Lone level Single Player : Yes Cooperative 2-8 Player : Not recommended DukeMatch 2-8 Player : No New Graphics : Yes New Sounds : No New Music : No New/changed CONs : No Demos Replaced : None Playing Time : 12 minutes typical casual speed for author Difficulty Settings : Yes - 0,2 Regular 3 Hard 4 free ride (cheat) * Construction * Base : New level from scratch Build Time : ridiculous Editor(s) used : build.exe Known Bugs : minor things that shouldn't detract. May Not Run With... : might be laggish on non-upgraded 486's. * Copyright / Permissions * You MAY distribute this MAP, provided you keep the ZIP package of files intact. You may modify the level provided you cite the original as the primary source. You may use chunks of the level, or artwork, if you mention this package as a source. Personal, free use of the level should be fine; but because it contains material relating to Voltr0n, it would be unwise to try to sell it as part of a CD (though I don't personally mind). Exception: you may do anything you want with "SOUNDS.MAP".
