I've tried to gear the level towards the mouser's out there, and I think I did a fairly decent job. The level has a fair amount of weapons/ammo placement, and has been limited to just a couple of special powerups...just the quad damage and ring of invisibility. Add’tl Credits to : *The guys at id for creating such incredibly expansive games such as Quake *Worldcraft, for such an awesome editor *Eternity Game Design - being apart of this group has inspired my creativity in so many ways that I can't pull myself away from the computer ;) *And most of all, my wife, for putting up with my very annoying habit of saying "In a minute..." ============================================================ * Play Information * Single Player : Yes (For looking around) Cooperative : No Deathmatch : Yes (Ideally for matches of 4-6 people) Difficulty Settings : Not in DM without a QC patch ;) New Sounds : No New Graphics : No New Music : Hell no, go get your own damn cd ;) Demos Replaced : None * Construction * Base : built from scratch Build time : a couple of weeks, on and off QBSP : 363 seconds Light (extra) : 480 seconds Vis (level 4) : 694 seconds Yet another level that I mapped out while I was at work...
