================================================================ Title : Armageddon Secure Filename : armS.zip Author : PahPah_DR Email Address : PahPah@deathriders.org Known errors corrected: 1. Framerates are much better. 2. Fort crates don't disappear anymore. 3. Mirror images off of cliff are better but still there. Since the map is so big I had to build walls in the center to cut down on the mirror images. 4. Sound bug has been fixed. (Sound would bounce on and off) Note for new map builders... be careful using long sloped sectors. Also, as hard as it is to believe.... the regenerating knives cut framerates waaaaaaay down. ================================================================== NEW MESSAGES: I edited the LOCAL.MSG file and ADDED new pickup weapon messages and ammo messages. You'll have to put the LOCAL.MSG file into your Outlaws directory to see the messages or else you won't see anything OR you might see "Joystick Off" since I ADDED them. When you copy it to the directory and you have any of my older maps or Launchpad by Flopur don't be afraid of overwrite the file that exists, it will work fine. The same file from anything else could alter the messages but will not affect how the game functions. Map Info Like the original Armageddon, it has 2 forts backed by a cliff. The fort gates open and close using switch on fort side of wall. There are 2 bunker and trendch complexes guarding the center arenas. 4 sniper towers and I kept the killer river (evil grin). There is an underground cave arena, and an outside run to help connect with cliffs and towers. All in all, it is still a BIG map. * Play Information * The Buffalo Rifle uses slot #1 and is found throughout the map. You will hear a cash register ching when you pick this weapon up. The BRAC pistol uses slot #4 and is found at cliff ends and in underground cave arena. You will hear a sharp snap when you pick this weapon up. The Bazooka uses slot #6 and is found in the outside runs at the bunker complex entrances. When picked up it says you have picked up an Assault Cannon. Special Dynamite uses slot #7 and is found on the cliff near the middle cave front opening. When picked up, it is called an IM Mine. Sanchez character TNT defaults to this TNT in this map. The Cannon uses slot #9 and is found on top of the forts. You cannot move when you use this weapon and you hear "OH YEAH" when you pick it up. Slots 2, 3, 5, and 8 are the conventional Outlaw weapons and defaults. 3DFX Compatible : Yes Mission type : Multiplayer Difficulty Settings : Not implemented New PCXs : Not the normal but not New (see credits) New NWXs : Not the normal but not New (see credits) New WAVs : Not the normal but not New (see credits) New 3DOs : No New ITMs : Not the normal but not New (see credits) New Cutscenes : No * Multiplayer Modes* Kill fool with chicken : Yes DeathMatch : Yes Capture the Flag : Yes Team Play : Yes Secret Document : No Tag n/u ? : No * Multiplayer Security Files * CHK : Yes ITM : Yes Note: For the level to be considered secure for tournament use in multiplayer it must contain .CHK and .ITM files in the Lab.The name of the file should contain a "S" as the last character to denote a secure level and this level meets all requirements to be secure. * Copyright / Permissions Authors (MAY) use this level as a base to build additional levels.

Krummwaffe@Bigfoot.com gets credit for creating the Bazooka and the Cannon. Not sure who to credit the Bracetta pistol too. I extracted it from the Huckleberry's Revenge map and the author of that map couldn't find who to credit. FPS INFORMATION: FPS dips when running through Reeds or downhill. Running through Reeds are the lowests spots on the map. Forts, Tunnels and outside runs are best.

Editor(s) used : LawMaker ver 1.0 beta3_v10 Known Bugs : The only "bug" I can find this round is the mirror images off the cliffs. I think I fixed the rest of them. =======================================================================
