=========================================================================== Review : Two deathmatch only levels. I tried them with zcajun bots and they kept me entertained much longer than other deathmatch levels, played in that way. Although the total areas are deathmatch -typical rather small, they offer a huge location variety: windowed corridors, stairs and so on. =========================================================================== Primary purpose : Deathmatch =========================================================================== Title : Here's some more DOOM DEATHMATCH levels! (Legalized package) Filename : DMATCH.WAD DMATCH3.WAD DMATCH.DEH Release date : 10/23/94 MM/DD/YY (Timestamp of textfile) Author : Ian Dendy Email Address : idendy@island.net or ian.dendy@source.island.net Other Files By Author : IDETH01.WAD, IDETH03.WAD (an earlier version was published as COMPACT.WAD), IDETH03.WAD, IDETH04.WAD, IDETH05.WAD, IDETH06.WAD. Ian Dendy was also credited together with Clint Bowick for building the level of STEVEN01.WAD by Steven Harris. Description : Here's some more DOOM DEATHMATCH levels! They contain new maps & new music for E1M1 E1M2 E1M3. All the music is contained in DMATCH.WAD so it will always have to be added if you want the music for any of the PWADS. ... More to come later! Note by the uploader : About the legalisation: Originally was included in this package DMATCH2.WAD (E1M2). It has been a modified version of TNPLHOME.WAD ('There's no place like home.') by Steven L. Bareman. Since Bareman did say in his textfile to TNPLHOME.WAD, that he does not allow to distribute modified versions of his level, i have left it out of this package. You can find the original in the /idgames -archives (see list of mirrors below) at this location: levels/doom/s-u/tnplhome.zip To mark this change of the original zip- package DMATCH2.ZIP by Dendy, i have renamed it to dmatch2l.zip. About the deh-patch: The included DMATCH.DEH was originally for DeHackEd 2.0 and DooM v. 1.666. I converted it into the modern text-based format, to make it playable not only with vanilla DooM v. 1.9 and dehacked 3.1, but also with source ports, that can use dehacked patches via the -deh parameter. I have renamed the original, but outdated binary version of the deh-patch into dmatch_deh.original. DMATCH.WAD was previously published by Dendy separately without the other WAD and deh-patch as DETH.WAD in DETH.ZIP. He converted it later to DooMII as IDETH01.WAD in ideth01.zip unter the title: 'It's a Small World'. You can get it here: levels/doom2/deathmatch/g-i/ideth01.zip . DMATCH3.WAD had some HOMs, when i tested it with GZDOOM 1.0.16. Using the automated bug fixing feature of DooMBuilder 1.67 (i know, i should update my toolbox! :/) solved those problems apparently. Just for the case, that my n00bish bug fixing action messed more up, than it helped, i have included the unchanged original as DMATCH3_WAD.original in this package. =========================================================================== * What is included * New levels : 2 Sounds : No Music : Yes Graphics : No Dehacked/BEX Patch : Yes Demos : No Other : No Files Included : No Other files required : No * Play Information * Game : DOOM Map # : E1M1 (DMATCH.WAD); E1M3 (DMATCH3.WAD) Single Player : Player starts only (No monsters) Cooperative 2-4 Player : Player starts only (No monsters, DMATCH3.WAD has even no player starts) Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Designed for Other game styles : No Difficulty Settings : Not implemented See [filename]_wadwhatoutput.txt for more information. * Construction * Base : New from scratch Known Bugs : Hopefully fixed (see uploader's comment above about DMATCH3.WAD) * Where to get the file that this text file describes * The mirrors of the /idgames -ftp-archives: ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/pc/msdos/games/idgames/ http://public.ftp.planetmirror.com/pub/idgames/ http://www.gamers.org/pub/idgames/ ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/vendors/idgames/ http://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/vendors/idgames/ ftp://ftp.chg.ru/pub/games/idgames/ http://ftp.chg.ru/pub/games/idgames/ ftp://ftp.mancubus.net/pub/idgames/ http://ftp.mancubus.net/pub/idgames/ http://youfailit.net/pub/idgames/ http://ftp.fdn.fr/games/idgames/ ftp://ftp.clinet.fi/pub/mirrors/archives.3dgamers.com/idgames/ ftp://ftp.task.gda.pl/pub/games/idgames/ ftp://ftp.netc.pt/pub/idgames/ http://ftp.netc.pt/pub/idgames/ http://crydee.sai.msu.ru/ftproot/pub/rec/games/idgames/ The upload-server of the /idgames-archives is: ftp://archives.3dgamers.com/pub/idgames/ But please use the above listed mirrors for your downloads. =========================================================================== Submitted to the /idgames-ftp-archives by FunDuke --> funduke@hotmail.com The review at the beginning of this template has been written by FunDuke.
