Title                   : Grok-It.wad (for Heretic)

Description             :
                        Grok-It is designed to look and feel
                        different from a standard ID wad. It includes a
                        number of traps and puzzles. Many parts of Grok-It
                        have epic scenery.  Some parts are better
                        survived by running, other parts are designed for
                        maximum gratuitous carnage. Mostly designed for single
                        combat, the last level, however will make an excellent
                        deathmatch arena. This is a PWAD only and requires
                        no changes to the Doom exe.

Additional Credits to   : To Matt Tagliaferri for making the easiest to use Doom
                         editor, Doomcad 6.0. To Olivier Montanuy for making
                         Deutex,and Wintex:the coolest wad-exploding,
                         rebuilding utilities ever. To Renaud Paquay and the DEU
                         team for making an extremely powerful editor that's easy
                         to use (WinDeu 5.24). To Colin Reed and Robert Fenske Jr.
                         for making some bitch'in node builders. To the guys who
                         made Trinity.wad for showing us all how to
                         stretch the Doom engine. To Warren Rice for
                         midi sequencing of "Hurt" and "Closer" from
                         Nine Inch Nails. To Christopher Roy for midi sequencing
                         of "A Warm Place" and "Ruiner" by Nine Inch Nails.
                         Oh yeah! and of course thanks to the bitch'n dudes
                         at ID for producing Doom, Doom2, and Heretic
                         and for being so cool as to allow users to make
                         their own levels!

* Construction *

Base                    : New level from scratch.
Build Time              : about 5 months off and on

Editor(s) used          : Doomcad 6.0 beta - basic build, error checking

                         WinDeu 5.24      - advanced sector tweaking,
                                            pro-active bug fixing

                         Doomcad 4.3      - seductively easy, buggy copy
                                            and paste

                         Wintex 3.4       - Texture, Sound, and music addition

                         Warm 1.4         - very good node, reject builder

Other Apps              : Adobe Photoshop for Windows, Kai Power Tools for
                         Windows, Windows 95, ATI Video basic card and software

Known Bugs              : Get the 1.0 to 1.2 patch for Heretic or you will
                         see flashes of sky when crossing some sectors in
                         E2M2. E2M1 and E2M3 may run slow on 486's due
                         to the number of gas bags. I set up difficulty
                         Levels 1-2 to have fewer gas bags for these levels.
                         On the very outsides of E1M4 you may see a couple
                         of slight HOM's
