Title                   : Mir

Story Line              : You have taken the starship Pleiades
                         from deadly aliens in the far reaches
                         of instellar space and have managed
                         to bring her home. You sit in the
                         crow's nest of the Pleiades admiring
                         the view of the beautiful Earth-Moon
                         system as the Pleiades approaches the
                         space station Mir. The Mir, named in
                         honor of the original Russian space
                         station of antiquity, is a large
                         orbital complex in high Earth orbit.
                         However, no one answers your hailing
                         calls. You decide to board the Mir to
                         find out why, but with a sense of
                         dread...
Description             : Single level with lots of new
                         graphics. This is a sequel to
                         the Pleiades level where you
                         captured the starship pleiades.
                         (you may wish to download
                         Pleiades, which can be found at the
                         same sites as this level under the
                         names Pleiade2.zip and Pleiade3.zip;
                         Pleiade2.zip is for Doom2 versions
                         before 1.9 while Pleiade3.zip is for
                         Doom2 versions 1.9 and later.) Mir
                         will run under all versions of Doom2.
                         Note: Pleiades and Mir are not
                         compatible for combination into a
                         single multilevel PWAD nor for
                         play under the same loading of Doom2.
                         They have different sky and wall
                         textures assigned to the same names.
                         Play action features random monster
                         placement which gives the action a
                         different twist each time it is
                         played. Finally, this level is a
                         standard patch wad that does not alter
                         the main Doom wad and is playable
                         with the standard -file parameter.
Additional Credits      : Doug Ryerson, I borrowed a few of his
                         textures from his ANTARES.WAD. Dave
                         Swift, I borrowed his idea of shiny gold
                         surfaces for a door textures from
                         his H2HMUD01.WAD level. Michael Coyne/
                         Steve McCrea, et al (Trinity),
                         source of Toccata, the organ music
                         selection. ID Software, I redefined
                         their COMPSTA1 and COMPTALL textures
                         as animated textures to produce
                         "living" instrument panels.
