================================================================ Title : Palace of the Beast Filename : Palace.wad Author : Thrain Shadbolt Email Address : Care of Chris Hardy ([email protected]) Misc. Author Info : '...All shall end in a sea of fire & blood...' Description : It's been two long months since you sent the evil Spider Demon back to Hell where it belonged. Meanwhile the UAC is gearing up for the battle to reclaim Earth. Of course all you want to do is get some much needed R&R... It's been a long night with too much wine and women in the bars of the refurbished Mars Base, so as you stagger into your barracks you fall into deep sleep almost immediately, and dream... You're standing in a glowing red corridor, in the distance you hear an all too familiar growl. It couldn't be - could it? It's just a dream, right? Seems awfully real. You pinch yourself; yep, it's real all right! Looks like Hell isn't ready to let you go just yet... And it's not just any part of Hell you find yourself in; a hideous scrawl of blood upon the wall spells out the words 'Palace of the Beast'! With realisation comes anger; how dare the demons interrupt your hard earned rest! Whoever's responsible you're gonna make them pay! You grasp your shotgun and head into the gloom... Palace of the Beast is a large Wad that I've been working on since what seems like the beginning of time (actually since I first got a copy of DEU) and I've finally managed to finish it off, hopefully in time to beat the release of DOOM II, after which probably no one will want to play DOOM I wads anymore... It contains alot of different 'themed' areas and at least one fairly unique puzzle, although it's more of a 'roam around and fight things' kind of a level with interesting architectural features. This is the second Wad I've released, the first was 'Rollercoaster of Doom' (ROLLDOOM.ZIP), a comedy level I created while working on this. Additional Credits to : Chris for the tools, Lars & Thomas for playtesting, the Boys (you know who you are) for deathmatching! (Editors Notes - Why not I'm posting it!!!! ;-) Thrain is a professional animator for one of NZ's biggest computer animation company. All of the graphics that have been changed have been drawn by him using Fractal Design paint. (Check out the Sky and the Title page) Anyway, if you use any of these graphics,etc please credit him!!! Thanks Chris Hardy ([email protected]) ================================================================ * Play Information * Episode and Level # : E1M5 (Use -warp 1 5 or while playing type IDCLEV15, I chose this level 'cos it's got the best music) Single Player : Yes Cooperative 2-4 Player : Yes Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Yes (A little too big though!) Difficulty Settings : Yes New Sounds : No New Graphics : Yes (new intro pic and sky) Demos Replaced : 1 (I've also included a larger demo, PALACE.LMP which is a fun deathmatch demo by me and some of my friends; I would've made this a demo as well but DOOM doesn't let you change player views with F12 while on the title screen, oh well. Anyway, the demo is from DOOM v1.666 so if you don't have it you'll either have to be real quick on the button or use -warp 1 5). * Construction * Base : New level from scratch Build Time : Many moons... Editor(s) used : DEU 5.1, IDBSP 1.0, DMGRAPH Known Bugs : Possible HOM effect somewhere (!) * Copyright / Permissions * Authors (may NOT) use this level as a base to build additional levels. You MAY distribute this WAD, provided you include this file, with no modifications. You may distribute this file in any electronic format (BBS, Diskette, CD, etc) as long as you include this file intact. * Where to get this WAD * FTP sites: BBS numbers: Other:
