Misc. Author Info : I've built many WADs and hope to come

on the Internet.

Gorilla Gore
Water Flood
Get Your Gun!
Wicked Barons & Spectres
107 sounds from my mic
Deathmatch by Mike
Another Heretic Cathedral (Shareware)
DF Rifle Patch.
Heretic Textures for DOOM II.
UAC's Last Hope
The Abandoned Base of Hellspawn
The Lost Training Base.
...Again, I wrote a lot more, but a
few were compilations and updates of
other ones (i.e. Houses 1.3).
Upcoming WADs by Author : An entire episode for DOOM one. There
are three of them out at the moment.
* WAD Description *
Brief Description : A ten-level collection of houses. I
have fixed everything enough to
please myself, the perfectionist.
Cool Stuff : + 10 new house levels ready for
deathmatch.
+ LOTS of new sounds. There is no
stupid pistol sound that sounds
like someone hit a drum and then
whistled, like in HALLS1-9.
+ Cool new status bar that I made
myself. It shows how far a crappy
paint program can go. It's too bad
I can't make a picture from scratch
do that.
+ Levels 3-6 are self-playable.
+ Includes Beavis & Butt-Head's house.
+ ...and more...!
WAD Info in More Detail : A year ago, I downloaded some 32 level
deathmatch collections. They had a few
houses in them, so I thought I would
take most of them and fix them up.
After more fixing and adding stuff,
this is the latest result. It sure is
a lot better than the first version.

Story Line : Have you ever been told, as a kid,
"Don't fire rockets in the house!"
Or how about, "Quit sawing your
brother in half! He's already got
negative frags."
It probably hasn't happened to you,
but now you can run and play in the
house now. The double-barreled
shotguns await you.
Might Not Run With : A turd log in the microprocessor.

* Construction *
Base : Modified WADs
Main Editor(s) used : DMapEdit 4.0.11, Deutex 3.6
Other Editor(s) used : EnDOOMer 1.0.1, DEU 5.21, ADE2 5.25,
NeoPaint 2.2, UnGOB.
Build Time : There has been many updates of this,
so I wouldn't know. Estimating from
the looks of the WAD, it looks like it
would take a maximum of 2 solid
months.
Known Bugs : None.
Other Problems : None, unless you have a different
version of DOOM II and it crashes with
a demo problem.
Future Improvements : Houses 1.5, maybe.
* Installation *
Put the WAD in your DOOM2 directory, bla bla bla!
Required to Have in Dir : Just the WAD.
* Troubleshooting *
Problem: The game kicks me out and says, "Demo is from a
different game version!"
Solution: Those internal demos were rocorded with 1.9. Why not
upgrade to that?
* Copyright / Permissions *
Authors MAY use this WAD as a base to build additional
WADs.
You may do whatever you want with this file, as long as you give
