Description             : TOM is a boom compatible wad that uses only doom2
                          format line actions (except some boom light
                          transfers) and sector effects. -complevel 9 in
                          PrBoom-Plus is required for some rising stairs
                          and "floor lower to 8 above highest floor"
                          behaviour. Some maps don't work properly in
                          ZDoom.

                          This isn't intended to be a traditional map set.
                          Instead, it's a compilation of random maps and
                          mapping experiments (for me) with random themes
                          that are sorted by date (mostly), rather than
                          difficulty. Each map is intended to be learned
                          and memorized from a pistol start and recorded
                          on for max runs (not all maps also have an
                          intended speed route). I imagine playing most of
                          these maps without learning them would probably
                          be pretty annoying. The point of the maps is to
                          learn them, plan a route, and record a demo as
                          fast as you can. Most of the maps are
                          bfg-oriented or rocket/plasma-oriented and most
                          people probably won't like the gameplay.

                          Most of the maps are remakes of levels from other
                          games. All of the remakes were built by looking
                          around in-game in the original levels, counting
                          floor and wall tiles to figure out heights and
                          lengths, standing in corners and seeing where
                          other corners line up, using a ruler and the
                          in-game map to figure out general room sizes,
                          etc. The Quake remakes were also built that way
                          (I didn't look in a Quake editor). Though, there
                          are still differences in appearance between the
                          originals and remakes. If you're a fan of any of
                          the games I did remakes of, I think it could be
                          cool to check out these maps even if you don't
                          like the gameplay (play on skill 3 - hurt me
                          plenty - to play the maps without monsters).

                          Intended to be played with these options, if you
                          want:

                                  not having played/seen the original map
                                  in about 1 year, with doom2 monsters. It

                                  Originally released as seaburt.wad in
                                  March 2009

                          MAP14 - released July 30, 2009
                                  Doom2 format version of map27 from

                                  Chip's Challenge. Also turned out to be
                                  a 1024-style map.

                          MAP15 - released July 16, 2009
                                  Doom2 format version of my first five
                                  maps put into one map. The original maps
                                  are from dib28a.wad and were made in 2005

                          MAP16 - released September 1, 2009
                                  My attempt at making an Oblige-like map
                                  from scratch.

                          MAP29 - demo map
                                  Map28 from dib28a.wad. My unfinished
                                  attempt at making cave architecture from
                                  2006.

                          MAP30 - released September 20, 2009
                                  A map with 2 sectors that will certainly
                                  be hated by most, if not all.

                          MAP31 - released July 30, 2009
                                  Map11 with the cybers facing you.

                          MAP32 - released July 30, 2009
                                  Doom2 format version of two of the last
                                  rooms from flanagan.wad. Also shows a
                                  Doom "bug" (?) where you can walk through
                                  certain impassible walls if your map
                                  takes up 32768 units or more, either
                                  south-north or west-east. Doesn't work in
                                  ZDoom.

* Play Information *

Game                    : Doom 2
Map #                   : MAP01-16, 30-32
Single Player           : Designed for

Cooperative 2-4 Player  : Yes (except map29 and map30) but untested

                          If it was me, for casual coop games online I'd
                          play with infinite ammo, respawn items, respawn
                          mega items, no friendly fire, save the bfg for
                          emergencies or if there's enough room for
                          everyone to use it without knocking people
                          around, and have everybody try to get the same
                          number of kills. Nothing extra was added for
                          coop.

Deathmatch 2-4 Player   : No

Difficulty Settings     : No - Intended for skill 4 - Ultra Violence

                          There are no monsters on skill 3 - Hurt Me Plenty
                          except monsters that are required to appear in
                          order to progress through the map. That was done
                          because some maps can't be completed with
                          -nomonsters. If playing on skill 3, shoot your
                          gun every once in a while to wake up those
                          monsters so that you don't get stuck.

Known Bugs              : You can get stuck in MAP14, just like in Chip's
                          Challenge. Some maps won't work with
                          -complevel 2. Some maps won't work with ZDoom.
