Description             : HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DOOM!

                          Yes, today marks the day, 17 years ago, when the
                          shareware version of DOOM was first uploaded by id
                          Software to the University of Wisconsin's FTP server!

                          This map is a little something that I threw together
                          back in 1998, and even still today cannot be uploaded
                          to the idGames Internet archives (due to it being
                          simply a "copy and paste" job of some of the original
                          id Software DOOM and DOOM 2 maps).

                          The map is a "copy and paste" of the first map of
                          DOOM 2 (MAP01: "Entryway"), the first map of Ultimate
                          DOOM (D_E1M1: "Hangar"), and the first secret map of
                          DOOM 2 (MAP31: "Wolfenstein")... which of course, is
                          identical to the first map of Wolfenstein 3D.

                          Note that the DOOM 2 version of the "Wolfenstein" map
                          has been edited: The secret area, and the exit to the
                          second secret map (MAP32) has been removed
                          (Wolfenstein 3D didn't have those anyway).

                          Other than the parts removed (mentioned above), the
                          maps have been logically and carefully spliced
                          together in verbatim... play the map for a short
                          time, and you will easily figure out where (and where
                          not) to go to get to the next section.

Sounds                  : None

Music                   : DOOM 2's "D_EVIL" (which is the ending song played
                          during DOOM 2's "BOSSBACK" endgame screen) has been
                          replaced with Wolfenstein 3D's "WONDERIN" "Wondering
                          About My Loved Ones".

                          DOOM 2's "D_DM2INT (which is played during the
                          in-between map status screens) has been replaced with
                          DOOM's "D_VICTOR" "Victory".

                          DOOM 2's "D_OPENIN" (which is the in-game music for
                          Map 30) has been replaced with a medley of: DOOM 2's
                          "D_RUNNIN" "Running From Evil", DOOM's "D_E1M1" "At
                          Doom's Gate", and Wolfenstein 3D's "GETTHEM" - "Get
                          Them Before They Get You".

                          Also, Reverb and Chorus (MIDI controllers 91 and 93)
                          have been added to the music... something that Bobby
                          Prince ommited in the original DOOM and DOOM 2 music!

Graphics                : DOOM 2's "RSKY3" sky texture has been replaced with
                          DOOM's Episode 1: "Knee Deep in the Dead" "SKY1".

                          Cool trivia tidbit: The original picture that id
                          Software used for the "SKY1" texture of the original
                          DOOM is a photograph of "Yangshuo Cavern" in China
                          (photographed by Tom Atwood back in 1992)!

                          DOOM 2's "BOSSBACK" endgame screen has been replaced
                          with a photograph of all of the id Software guys!
