Other Files by Author : stvcage.wad - a great DOOM2 level
Additional Credits : My family and girlfriend for their patience.
: Al Howe and Billy "Blaze" Price for helping me
playtest these and all my other levels.
: All the authors for all the editors and other
utilities I used for creation.
: Everyone at Id Software for allowing people like
me to create my own world! Not to mention a great
game!
Description of Level 1 : A square layout, with high corners and 4 side rooms.
You will love this level if you like specters and
invulnerability. When playing deathmatch, watch
out for players who like to stakeout.
Its appearance ranks a 6.
Try starting with just the pistol and see how far
you can get. On Ultraviolence, it ranks a 4 for
hardness.
A fun level for 1-player or co-op, lots of fun for
deathmatch.
Description of Level 2 : A 3-tiered level with many criss-crossing hallways.
Plenty of running and everyone keeps falling into
the center room. Can you get the Megasphere?
Its appearance ranks a 7.
Try starting with just the pistol and see how far
you can get. On Ultraviolence, it ranks a 5 for
hardness. I can do it with 3 100%'s and 200%-200%
health and armor in about 15 minutes.
A fun level for 1-player or co-op, lots of fun for
deathmatch.
Description of Level 3 : A long walkway with weapons on ledges at the ends.
Once you walk off the ledge, you can't go back or
hide. A simple level with the most effective,
frag filled deathmatch action I've ever seen. It's
easy to rack up 400 frags in an hour. And expect
lots of negative frags - once you fall off the
walkway, you're a gonner - but don't worry,
everyone's falling off. This level is guaranteed
to teach you how to use and dodge the BFG.
Its appearance ranks a 3, but it's one of the best
deathmatch levels I've ever played.
Unfortunately, this level is not a playable one
player level - you just get to look, and then hit
the end switch.
An interesting level for co-op, one of the best
deathmatch levels of all time!!!
Description of Level 4 : A small square room with lava in the center. You
get to use the Chaingun and BFG, which do you think
is better? You'll be surprised!
Its appearance ranks a 5.
This is a playable 1-player level, but it's very
short and simple. Can you find the exit?
A short level for 1-player or co-op, lots of fun
for deathmatch.
Instructions : Put STVDM.WAD in your DOOM 2 directory, type
"doom2 -file stvdm.wad -warp 1 -skill <#>"
Yes, it really is that easy!
If you want to go straight to the Labrynth,
Fragathon, or Volcano, type "-warp 2", "-warp 3",
or "warp 4" respectively instead of "warp 1".
Disclaimer : I'm sorry if these levels cause you any problems,
but I'm not responsible for any problems you might
experience related to the use of these levels.
