Substitutions? : NA
System used : P2 266MHz, SB16
Controls used : Default keyboard controls
Free interpretation : E3M8 on ultraviolence with -fast (no difference
from it being on Nightmare, though.) I let ONE caco
do most of the work before I finished the spider off
by emptying my plasma gun. I then fired the very last
round as a victory shot at the baron (who was fighting
the other caco lol)
Comments : E1M3 - I practiced using a count-down stopclock
on the normal game before recording it. Not really
easy if you try to rush, but not too hard once you
got the game down. (Grab that soulsphere!)
Basically I tried not to lose too much health at
the starting. The count-down stopclock was helpful
too.
E3M9 - Not too difficult either since I can just
run through the level once I get the invulns lol =)
The only hard part (but not very) is the part that
duplicates E3M1 i guess - you have to be very
prudent with time. Shooting down the demons in the
passage and the imps in the room before the fake
exit takes up valuable time.
E2M7 - Invuln? Thanks! That allowed me to basically
punch away all opposition (mostly demons, imps and
spectres) while blazing through the level. I
finished the level in 2:37...
Watch the ending part, when I distracted the caco
so as to dash for the exit =)
Note that the dance is not required here since it
is an _Instant Carnage_ level (see the latest DHT5
rules -- DHT6 rules are not out yet lol)
Author info : Student who deathmatched in school until they banned
computer games =( Now plays Doom in his spare time.
