Thank you! Description : Why the name "Italian DooM"?! Because it was made by three Italian Doomers, grouped in the so-called "Italian Team". But there's more: in the .WAD there are some new nice features too, such as messages in Italian... with the literal translation in English below, of course! This .WAD is ZDoom-oriented, so it works just with ZDoom, particularly with versions higher than 2.0.63a, since the .WAD contains new features, like DECORATE and DECALDEF lumps, which are supported only by the last versions of this source port. The .WAD contains 8 maps, one of which is a secret map (see "Levels Information" below for further info about the sequence of levels, its authors and more). Other features of this .WAD are: - two new monsters: a strengthened "CyberMasterMind" and the "Arachnophyte"! - new graphics (textures, flats, sprites, pictures, etc.); - new background musics. "Italian DooM" is a .WAD for Single Player mode (SP), although there are Cooperative and Deathmatch starts in some maps. Levels can be beated in sequence or from scratch. Playing the levels in sequence means following the story, of course. Play it and discover the new "Italian DooM": the first episode, of course! Story : Demons on Hell have nearly been defeated: there are just some interdimensional pockets of resistance. The Terrestrial Government decides to send a Cargo StarShip towards a far colony, that we lost contact with since the monsters' invasion. Unfortunately monster suddenly attack the Space Center and the Cargo Spaceship at the same time! Now you need to clear out the Space Center ("UAC Rocket Base"), the Spacecraft ("Cargo StarShip") and pilot the latter to the colony, where you find an invaded UAC facility ("They Reign Again"), after being attacked from enemy artillery and a disastrous landing. Monsters came out from the bowels of the planet and attacked the base from inside! You need to cover the monster's route in the opposite direction, to find other infested UAC bases ("Dictorobitary" and "Tech Temple"), where marines were making awful experiments of interdimensional trips and whence the monster started their attack, exploiting the big central gate! Then you use it too, in order to stop the invasion from the other dimension, but the alien outpost you reach is possessed by hellish deities ("Infernal Deities"), who want to stop your journey. After defeating last guardians, you get the MegaSphere, whose mysterious powers lead you to the last rampart of monsters ("Arachnophobia")... but is it really the last one?

I tried to make a non-linear map, although you must do some things in a certain order; but you are quite free to explore the map, apart from some limits. I warn you that there are some tricks and traps: don't be greedy and beware of doors, that are not totally open and need more power... since you could be stuck in a room, if you unluckily tried to open totally a door, that you can pass through easily, without having restored power! Having said this, don't complain with me with this "problem"! The map is quite detailed and this may slow down old computers a little, especially while loading the .WAD, in the main corridors and near the Rocket Compound. The map was originally designed for vanilla Doom... although I don't know if it would have worked with it. Then it was converted for ZDoom and ZDoom features and ACS Scripts has been added, to make the gameplay more interesting and funnier! Level : map02 Title : Cargo StarShip Author : Toranaga Music : got_ds08 Game Mode Supported : Single Player Comments : The UAC wanted to use this Starship to help the Lost Colony. Unluckily the demons invaded it. You must free the Ship and conquest the Bridge. Level : map03 Title : They reign again Author : Buzzbomer Music : imus1 ("Chant") Game Mode Supported : SP, Coop and DM Comments : This is my first attempt to create a level with hellish theme. Level : map04 Title : Dictorobitary Author : Buzzbomber Music : imus2 ("Suck this!") Game Mode Supported : SP and Coop Comments : - Level : map05 Title : Tech Temple Author : Toranaga Music : mm2ds08 Game Mode Supported : SP Comments : In this lab the UAC built an Interdimensional Gate; as usual, the demons used the Gate to invade the lost colony. The lab is now converted in a Temple. Level : map06 Title : Infernal Deities Author : Ismaele Music : mus_e1m6 (from "Heretic") Game Mode Supported : SP Comments : It is set in a mysterious place, inhabited by monsters, who daily offer sacrifices to strange hellish deities. Gothic and Medieval styles are dominant... with touches of hellish themes. Gameplay is enlivened by a lot of traps... so be careful and keep your eyes open! Most traps are "marked" with different signs, whereas other ones are quite intuitive. So, if you fall in them and die, it is just because you haven't been cautious! Sometimes you must face traps to go forth (for instance, trap related to keys), whereas other traps protect interesting things...! The map is non-linear and you can navigate it freely, apart from the limits imposed by keys. The level can be divided into six areas: the first three form the "upper" part of the map; the others form the "lower" part of the map. 1) The Great Halls, in the North: the start area and the last challenge are here; you need all six keys to enter the Dome; 2) Torture Chambers and Execution Place, which are in the West: you must look for the Red Key Card here; 3) The Courtyard, in the East: the Blue Key Card is hidden here; 4) The Gargoyle's Altar (and Jail), in the West: here the Gargoyle deity protects his Red Skull Key and detain prisoners; 5) The Lion's Realm, in the South: don't think that the Lion deity will allow you to take his Yellow Skull Key without asking for your blood in exchange for it; 6) The Satyr's Hell, in the East: a warm place, where to die, while looking for the Satyr's Blue Skull Key. Actually another area can be locate in the centre of the map: it is made up of three little courtyards: the middle one contains the Yellow Key Card (there's a nice trick here!) and you can enter it with the Blue Key Card or the Red one. The Southern courtyard links the three deities' realms and the rest of the level; whereas the Northern one links the 2nd area, the 3rd one and the "lower" part of the map. This is a hard level, because of traps and placement of monsters, and requires experience, ability (in both manoeuvring and fighting) and strategy. Level : map07 Title : Arachnophobia Author : Ismaele, Toranaga, Buzzbomber Music : mus_e3m2, mus_e2m8, mus_e1m8 (from "Heretic") Game Mode Supported : SP Comments : This level was done by 3 different authors: all the members of the "Italian Team". The first part was made by Ismaele, the second one by Toranaga, the third one by Buzzbomber. Will you recognize the 3 different styles?! The title of this map is due to the last part of map, populated by Arachontrons, Arachnophytes and the CyberMasterMind... if you had fear of spiders, then you'd better worry when you have to face the final challenge! Level : map08 Title : DooM MuseuM Author : Toranaga Music : mm2ds02b Game Mode Supported : SP Comments : This is not a normal Doom level. This is a Museum. Please visit it and do not make any damage! ============================================================================== * Revision History * ============================================================================== * Copyright / Permissions * This .WAD is Copyright @ 2005 by "The Italian Team": Ismaele, Toranaga, BuzzBomber.
