Misc. Author Info       : Everything I really needed to know I learned
                         on the Shores of Hell.

Description             This is the final revision to The Gathering.  I
                       put the starts in on each level for deathmatch
                       play.  I think E2M3 is probably your best bet.

                       The original file was a large one level mission.
                       added an entire mission E2M1 and added a lot more
                       rooms to the original, which I split into two separate
                       levels.  They're fun.

                       I think these levels are great.  Something
                       for everyone I hope.  I'm sure you've never seen
                       some of the things that are in my twisted head.

                       The moon base water treatment and recycling
                       center started reporting strange happenings
                       deep in there sewer system a few weeks ago.
                       Just days later a garbled transmission during
                       the sounds of battle made it through to the UAC
                       outpost on Deimos 4.

                       "Nuke us.......it's the only.....have to...
                       ....cant make this......sewers...cavern...
                       from hell"

                       was all that could be understood from the message.
                       Not much to go on, but that's what you're used to.
                       They don't give you any easy ones, and you don't get
                       to ask to many questions.

                       The UAC needs you to investigate and "rectify" any
                       potential hazards on the water treatment facility.

                       Good luck.

                       Dang! what the heck was that?  Just two tunnels and
                       an underpass from the UAC water treatment plant.  The
                       driver never saw the creature waiting in the tunnel.
                       In a flash it was over.  Nothing could have survived
                       that crash... you could be wrong ... you did.  I guess
                       your on foot now.  Be careful, the truck that was
                       escorting you was carrying emercency supplies for the
                       plant personnel and some toxic waste.  Watch it,  that
                       stuff is flammable.


Additional Credits to   : My wife.  She is absolutely the greatest gal
                         in the whole world.  A true DOOM widow at times
                         but alway delightful.

                       : Mike "All I want is a plasma gun" Hough;
                         the greatest space marine in UAC history.
                         Mike spent hours playtesting this level.
                         Thanks for the encouragement.

                       : ID Software - WOW!  Thank you so much.  This has
                         become a way of life.

                       : Collin Reed for the BSP Utility

                       : Raphael Quinet and Brendon Wyber for the awesome
                         DEU 5.21 editor.  You guys are brainiacs.

                       : My mother, the acadamy and all my grade school
                         friends..... ;)

Demos Replaced          : All - Watch the demos for a clue to the first
                         puzzle.  But I didn't want to spoil many secrets so
                         the good stuff is not in any of the demos.


* Construction *

Base                    : New level from scratch

Editor(s) used          : DEU, BSP

Build Time              : All my LIFE!!!!

Known Bugs              : Bugs?  You think I spend hundreds of hours on this
                         for bugs?.....Jeeez.  Seriously, I tested this to
                         death.  There's a bit of a flash when you enter or
                         exit one very tall room.  It doesn't always happen
                         and I don't think it takes away from the game.  I
                         thought about writing my own DOOM like engine to
                         get around the problem.  I could do it, yeah, and
                         monkeys might fly out of my butt.
