Satellite probes have obtained images of a Strog reactor built into the rock, and we have reason to believe that this facility is a new arms manufacturing plant. We suspect the Strog have developed a new technique for production of fussion based weapons. If we don't discover their plans and disable the facility, we may soon be facing hordes of BFG10k wielding infantry. We're pressed hard on the front lines, so we're sending you back in. You've got to destroy the reactor and if possible get the data on the fussion reactor. Phase one of the mission requires you to infiltrate the main lab through a maintenance tunnel we've located. This tunnel is little-used, and should lead you through the upper security station, where you'll be able to take out the sentries, hopefully before they alert the entire base guard. It's going to be hairy soldier, so stay on your toes. We wish you luck. USMC Command out. --------------------------------------------------------------- * Loading information * To load this Q2 map: - Put the "awf1.bsp" in the /quake2/baseq2/maps/ directory. - Start Quake2 as you usually would do. - Pull down console, type "skill 2" (or "skill 1" or "skill 0").

Don't put this level on any sort of commercial product please. That would be uncool. If you want to pay me alot of money, feel free to drop me a line :) You MAY distribute this BSP through any electronic network , provided you include this file and leave the level in it's original form. You MAY use this map as a base for additional levels, if you want to, just give me credit and let me know what you're using it for so I can check it out :) *Archive info* Archive filename: awf1.zip * Where to get this archive * ftp.cdrom.com and mirror sites * Other levels by JHP * None *background of this map* This is the first map I've actually released. I learned alot from it, as it basically started out as an exercise in Q2 entities. There are some speed issues, but my system is fairly powerful, so it may be slower on your PC. If so, sorry about that. I've done as much as I can with the map to optimize it, but the truth is that I never envisioned the map actually being released; I had to force alot of the optimization, so it's less than perfect. The second map in the series will be much quicker, I promise! Other issues: I run 3dFX GL so I have absolutely no idea what the map looks like without colored lighting... sorry about that, software guys... Also, the exit is set to send you to the map "awf2". This isn't out yet, but when it comes out I want the maps to link together. This is the first of a 3-level unit, so look for the other two levels in the coming months. I'll release the entire unit in a pack file when it's 100% complete. Have fun, and drop me an email if you want to comment/praise/curse my foul map :) JHP aka "gloom" ---------
