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?
Instructions : Just unzip the .WAD into your ZDoom directory and launch it
with the DooM 2 IWAD: zdoom -file itdoom1.WAD

* Levels Information *
Level: map01
Title: UAC Rocket Base
Author: Ismaele
Music: ada-ds02
Game Mode Supported: SP and DM (just in the "Rocket Arena")
Comments: The map can be divided into six sections:
1) Warehouse, that is the main floor (1st floor);
2) Power Plant, that is the lowest floor;
3) Control Tower, that is the highest floor (3rd floor);
4) Refueling Area, that is the second floor;
5) Rocket Compound;
6) Teleport Area, that is northern part of the base.
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: ("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!
