Description             : This was the first level of the Freedoom project
                          from around 2006 to 2017.  It has recently been
                          replaced and so I decided to make some edits and
                          fixes, to create a "definitive cut" version and
                          release it stand alone. I chose the name "The Cursed
                          Hangar" for this final re-issue.

                          The map is intended to be a play on Doom's E1M1
                          "The Hangar". It follows the rough layout of that
                          classic map, but is slightly more complex and
                          slightly more difficult.

                          The map is intended to use Boom features and so has
                          moving floors, modified COLORMAPs, transparent
                          textures, etc.

                          This PWAD is designed to work with Boom compatible
                          source ports and Ultimate Doom v1.9. There's a
                          DEHACKED lump that spices things up a little bit if
                          your port supports MBF code pointers (most do).

                          I've also included two SFX that my brother and I
                          contributed to Freedoom in the early days and which
                          were subsequently replaced.

Additional Credits to   : TheGreenHerring and NickZ who made minor fixes and
                          changes to the map in Freedoom.

                          Joseph Dowland (dsclaw).

                          RjY, Voros and Catoptromancy for play-testing and fix
                          suggestions.

                          I've imported some textures from FreeDoom that I used
                          for the map and aren't in base Doom (they're mostly
                          recreations of Doom 2 patches). Thanks to the authors:

                           * RW22_1 - Nick Baker (NiGHTMARE)
                           * RW28_4 - Colin Phipps (cph)
                           * RW18_1 - Simon Howard (Fraggle)

Special Mentions        : Giancarlo Laso (Shadow1013) who "vanillafied" the map
                          in his "Invasion Of The Damned" PWAD:

                          Wesley Johnson who made some suggested modifications
                          to the map which didn't get included in Freedoom (or
                          here).

                          Simon Howard, Mike Swanson, Voros and all other
                          Freedoom contributors for their continued efforts.

Bugs                    : Plenty.
                          QZDoom (at least version 1.2.2) doesn't render the
                          "muggy" underground area with the custom COLORMAP.
