Castle of Evil. (previously released in beta form as ss27bet2.wad)
First of all let me say... This is bloody *HUGE* 8) I've been working on this for a long time since most of the earlier editors couldn't handle a large level like this one.
Made for sp, coop or dm (I aim to please.)
It's pretty open with only a few doors requiring keycards. Other doors may require a switch. There are peep holes and ambush spots almost everywhere for happy deathmatch. But open spaces are also provided for those all out battles.
Most heavy firepower is heavily guarded by monsters or hidden. The only easy weapon to get in single player mode is the shotgun. All the weapons are present.
This level is mostly hack, slash, ambush + puzzle type.
For more information consult the other .txt files in this archive.
There now go kill something... Send me some hate mail.

Base:
New level from scratch (small section (dejavu) reproduced to match a section of e1m4)).
Build time:
Long long, way too long. Started in April '94 Stopped many times because of memory restrictions of editors and coz I only had 4Mb b4.
Editor(s) used:
DEU (from 4.31 to 5.21gcc ... yes 4.31 was useful in debugging node errors of DEU 5.0, in early stages) BSP12x for nodes rebuilding. RMB 2.0 for reject table and special ambush effects.
Bugs:
You'll see HOM if you're using v 1.2 of doom so use v 1.666 or 1.7 ... or whichever is the latest one now. You can't save on this level. Its just too complex for doom. It will crash the savegame buffer if you try. Sorry but I tried ... :(
