Uploaded by : Graham Burgess Advanced engine needed : None required, though note the author's comments about VPOs (but these are rare in my experience). Primary purpose : Single play ================================================================ Title : City In Chaos Filename : CIC.WAD Author : Alex Busby Email Address : mbcx4ab1@stud.man.ac.uk Misc. Author Info. : Student with nothing better to do ================================================================ Crap Intro : Looking out of the door at the expansive city outside, you see a strange bloke with spikes protruding from his body. Funny, you were sure national bondage day was next week. Suddenly, an odd bloke obscured by a tree tries to blast you with his gun. Fortunately, you always carry a gun pointed directly in front of you, so you squeeze off a few rounds, and take him out. You decide to go and see what's going down. Grabbing your backpack, map, shotgun and shells you head out the door. Maybe you'll find a double- barreled shotgun lying about someplace, after all, this is Doom II. You feel a shell slam into your back. Ouch. You spin round, and blast the hell spawn. 40% health. Plenty. You run for cover followed by a hail of machine gun fire. As you run, you suddenly realise you've never seen your feet. Maybe I'll check 'em out some time, you think.... ==================================================================== Play notes : By my standards, and probably quite a few peoples standards, this is a difficult level. On the other hand, if you're the kind of person who can drink two bottles of vodka and then complete all the Doom II levels under par without saving a game then its probably quite easy. On my DX2 50, this level slows Doom up quite a bit at the beginning when there loads of demons trying to blast you (or each other). So its a good idea to crank down the screen size until you 've killed some of the monsters, especially outside. If you've got a Pentium then you don't need to, so instead, you can buy me one. =================================================================== ** PWad Information ** Level : MAP01 Single Player : Of course Cooperative 2-4 : Yep (Not tested) Deathmatch 2-4 : Yep (Not tested either) Difficulty Settings : Yes New Sounds : Nope New Graphics : Yes (A couple of animated fire textures) New Musics : Not really, I put a different soundtrack on level 1 'cos I was sick of hearing the same tune. Demos Replaced : None whatsoever ===================================================================== ** Construction ** A new level built from scratch using DETH 2.62. New patches and music integrated into level using DEUTEX 3.5. Those cool nodes were built using BSP 1.2x ===================================================================== ** Known Bugs ** If you look through some bars in a room overlooking most of the level, (quite a nice view I might add) and sort of move whilst looking, the game crashes giving the error : No more visplanes, or visplanes overflow. I'm afraid I have no idea what visplanes are, where you get them from, how you get rid of them, or what colour they might be, so I can't do anything about that. So, save the game before admiring any vistas :-) ====================================================================== ** Credits ** Thanks to : Antony Burden and Simon Oke for DETH.

My other wad is Castle Of Death (COD.WAD) also found in the Action games forum on Compuserve, but it's nothing special so only download it if you've got nothing better to do. Well, go and play it then. Al. (11th Sep. '95) What are you waiting for ? Armageddon ?
