Description             : My latest Wad for HEXEN, complete w/scripts, This    
                          is a complete five level hub. (Plus a secret 6th 
                          level) I am kinda proud of the lighting effects 
                          and the work I did with the shadows. Believe it or 
                          not this started off as one level but got too slow, 
                          this forced me to turn it into a hub, and learn the 
                          scripting language. (AHHHHH! I still haven't figured
                          it all out).
                          
                          It was developed on a 486DX-40 (running at 50) with
                          a Trident 1 meg video card (ISA). And 20 meg of ram
                          The sound card was a Sound Blaster 2.0. It runs 
                          great on my AM5x86-133 w/ a Diamond Stealth 64 2meg 
                          vram, AWE32, and 20 meg of ram. 
                          
                          It still may run a little slow on slower machines.
                          At least until you kill off the geeks. IMHO, this 
                          wad kicks ass. I still don't consider it to be done,
                          but realise that I could twiddle with it forever.

                          addict on this planet and elsewhere, my kids
                          (the beta testers from hell) for deathmatch testing. 
                          (I died a thousand deaths.) The family that 
                          deathmatches together stays together.

Game                    : Hexen

Episode and Level #     : Maps 27, 28, 30, 31, 32, 33 This translates into 
                          levels 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 (use these with visit 
                          or -warp, or id's DM)
Single Player           : Yes
Cooperative 2-8 Player  : Yes, I put in 8 player support but haven't tested it 
                          I've only got 4 people in my family with a 4 node 
                          network at home, and haven't tried v1.1 w/8 players 
                          yet. (at work of course!)
Deathmatch 2-8 Player   : Yes - See above, The flow of this wad was primarily
                          designed with single, or co-op playing in mind. The
                          individual maps though were designed with DEATHMATCH 
                          in mind, though I can't say where you'll wind up at.
                          Anybody that knows how to modify the map lump info 
                          could probably help me out and make the dm flow like
                          the coop and single player modes. If you can help me
                          out with this please e-mail me and I'll revise the
                          wad package.

I could say that I'll see you on the shores of hell (I'm that big guy with the

yours. (Credit where credit is due...) Actually maybe you should just learn 
how to use an editor, and learn how to script, and use your own creativity 
instead of ripping off someone elses work. No?, well it was just a suggestion 
anyway.
