This was just something fun and easy to do.
It won't impress other D1T-ers, but it might
score a few points with those who haven't
mastered punching and jousting with Imps.
It's kinda fun to watch in map mode.
Comments : E1M2 - authenticated after securing position
E1M4 - authenticated at start
E1M8 - authenticated at start
These three make up the required part
of the exam. None were very difficult.
A year ago, I would not have said that.
But, after years of DOOMing and DHTing,
some things just aren't as hard as they
used to be. I finished all three of
these in one sitting. The block came
when I got to the out-of-base level.
E2M1 - authenticated as the start
This one took me quite a while to do.
Actually, I did on the second day I tried.
But, the first and second days were
separated by a few months.
Brute force (shooting things) did not work
because the ammo runs out before you get to
the final rooms. So, I had to get the
first Caco to polish off most of the Imps.
I found that if I could get to the Pinkies
on the wall with over 100 bullets, I could
win the game without much problem.
It was rather cool when my last bullet
killed the last monster (the imp in
the exit chamber). I couldn't have wished
for a better ending. Of course, I planned
it that way...
Author info : This titles puts me up to 5. So, now I can
have my picture added to the DHT5 Hall of fame.
My email address changed in August 1995.
But, all of my challenges were issued before that
date. So, you'll see me listed in the log
as:
[email protected]
but my new address is:
[email protected]
I also maintain the lmps section of idgames
on ftp.cdrom.com. So, when I'm overworked,
the rest of you suffer the delays. My goal
is to lose the overworked status and get back
to doing fun things at least every other day.
So far, I have not been very successful at
achieving this objective.
