Review : Two deathmatch only levels. I tried them with
zcajun bots and they kept me entertained much
longer than other deathmatch levels, played in
that way. Although the total areas are deathmatch
-typical rather small, they offer a huge location
variety: windowed corridors, stairs and so on.

published as COMPACT.WAD), IDETH03.WAD,

Description : Here's some more DOOM DEATHMATCH levels!
They contain new maps & new music for E1M1 E1M2
E1M3. All the music is contained in DMATCH.WAD so
it will always have to be added if you want the
music for any of the PWADS.
...
More to come later!
Note by the uploader : About the legalisation:
Originally was included in this package
DMATCH2.WAD (E1M2). It has been a modified
version of TNPLHOME.WAD ('There's no place like
home.') by Steven L. Bareman. Since Bareman did
say in his textfile to TNPLHOME.WAD, that he does
not allow to distribute modified versions of his
level, i have left it out of this package. You
can find the original in the /idgames -archives
(see list of mirrors below) at this location:
levels/doom/s-u/tnplhome.zip
To mark this change of the original zip-
package DMATCH2.ZIP by Dendy, i have renamed it
to dmatch2l.zip.
About the deh-patch: The included DMATCH.DEH was
originally for DeHackEd 2.0 and DooM v. 1.666.
I converted it into the modern text-based format,
to make it playable not only with vanilla DooM v.
1.9 and dehacked 3.1, but also with source ports,
that can use dehacked patches via the -deh
parameter.
I have renamed the original, but outdated binary
version of the deh-patch into
dmatch_deh.original.
DMATCH.WAD was previously published by Dendy
separately without the other WAD and deh-patch
as DETH.WAD in DETH.ZIP. He converted it later to
DooMII as IDETH01.WAD in ideth01.zip unter the
title: 'It's a Small World'. You can get it here:
levels/doom2/deathmatch/g-i/ideth01.zip .
DMATCH3.WAD had some HOMs, when i tested it with
GZDOOM 1.0.16. Using the automated bug fixing
feature of DooMBuilder 1.67 (i know, i should
update my toolbox! :/) solved those problems
apparently. Just for the case, that my n00bish
bug fixing action messed more up, than it helped,
i have included the unchanged original as
DMATCH3_WAD.original in this package.
