Other Files by Author : UNHOLY01.WAD
: 30 levels left to come in this Series (hopefully).
Misc Author Info : DOOM fanatic...
SPC in the US Army (92y) Unit Supply Specialist
Additional Credits : My wife for her patience.
: Paul Sterud for putting up with my anoying calls:
"Dude, check out the wad now, I added another
texture!!!"
: A guy nicknamed ||BARON|| who I met on IRC (my
first playtester who was a complete stranger).
The next one will be out soon, I promise!
: All the authors for all the editors and other
utilities I used for creation.
: Mark Riel for the "Unholy was here" patch. And for
being patient with me while I tried to import it
in the level.
: Everyone at Id Software for allowing people like
me to create my own world! Not to mention a great
game! Hip Hip ...
Description : Uh, I'm still working on that. Maybe a storyline
will give me a reason to actually release a v1.1.
For now, though, use the same story id gave you.
I'm going to PLDC (an army school) in two days as
of this writing. If it looks like I cheesed a
little just to get this level out, your right. I
made it as best I could and I am still happy with
it. I have a really good idea for the next level,
The Gauntlet, but I'm afraid you'll have to wait
about 2 months for it, sorry.
Instructions : Put UNHOLY02.WAD in your DOOM 2 directory, type

Disclaimer : I assume no responsibility for anything of any sort
in any way, shape, or form--now, then, henceforeward

congressional representatives, nor any other person--
living, dead, or undead -- that you have or will ever
have any contact with in even the slightest form.
This PWAD has been tested and tested ad infinitum, so
it shouldn't mess with your computer or anything else

too damn bad. Don't come cryin' to me.

* Other WADs recommended by the Author *
- The Church of Doom II (CHURCH.WAD)
by Virgil Itliong (

I'm not quite sure why this was called church.wad and not grave.wad,
it's more of a cemetary than anything else. Great construction in this
wad, including features such as a musoleum <?> with a chaingunner...some-
where, people burning at the stake, a church (small), and the most
awesome exit I've ever seen. This wad is simply great. Oh, BTW, as soon
as I contact the author, don't be surprised if you see that same sky
texture in one of my future levels.

* Important Notes on Gameplay *
DO NOT use gamma correction! I do not make my levels at all dark, and if
there is a dark area, it is meant to be that way. The best think to do is
when you first start the level, turn gamma correction off and adjust the
brightness on you monitor until you get that "rustic" feel. Trust me, this
will make the level look _so much_ better. Have fun!
