WARNING!!!!!!
LEM4.ZIP WILL EXTRACT A FEW LEM4*.* FILES INTO YOUR
DUKE3D DIRECTORY. ALTHOUGH IS NOT STRICTLY NECESSARY,
BEFORE UNZIPPING AND PLAYING LEM IV, BACKUP ALL YOUR
.CON AND .ART FILES. LEM IV HAS ITS OWN TILES014.ART
FILE AND USER.CON.I HAVE RENAMED THESE FILES LEM4.*.
ONCE YOU HAVE UNZIPPED LEM4.ZIP DON'T USE
THE DUKE SETUP FOR PLAYING, SIMPLY TYPE LEM4,THAT WAY
NEW TEXTURES WILL BE LOADED AND YOU'LL BE ABLE TO CHOICE
BETWEEN SINGLE OR MULTIPLAYER GAME, KEEP IN MIND LEM4 HAS
BEEN PRIMARILY DESIGNED AS A DUKEMATCH LEVEL BUT
IMPLEMENTS AN INTERESTING SINGLE PLAY FEATURING LEVELS
OF DIFFICULTY. THE LEM4.BAT FILE WILL RESTORE ALL YOUR
ORIGINAL CON AND ART FILES AFTER PLAYING. IF YOU VIEW
OR EDIT LEM IV WITH "BUILD" BE CAREFUL, THE MAP WORKS
PERFECTLY BUT AFTER EDITING WITH "BUILD" YOU WILL REALIZE
THERE ARE SOME UNSTABLE THINGS, I DON'T KNOW
WHY.. YOU BETTER DON'T TOUCH THE FILE LEM4.MAP, AND IF YOU
WANT TO EDIT IT MAKE COPIES OF THE FILE.
IF, FOR ANY REASON, THE PROGRAM CRASH WHEN LOADING
THE TEXTURES FILE OR WHEN PLAYING, YOU SHOULD RESTORE
SOME CRITICAL FILES MANUALLY. WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THE
LEM4.BAT FILE CAN RESTORE AUTOMATICALLY WHEN EXITING
THE ORIGINAL USER.CON AND TILES014.ART -THE LAST ONE
ONLY IF YOU ALREADY GOT IT WITH YOUR OWN TEXTURES-.
THE ORIGINAL PLUTONIUM FILES ARE RENAMED WITH THE
EXTENSION "BIS", SO LOOK FOR THEM AND RENAME THEM
USER.CON AND TILES014.ART. DO THAT ONLY IF THE LEM4.BAT
WAS UNABLE TO RESTORE THESE FILES!!!
TITLE : L E M IV THIS MAP IS ONLY FOR PLUTONIUM PAK

DESCRIPTION : THIS IS THE LAST LEM MAP FOR DUKE 3D. I HOPE YOU
LIKE THE LEM SERIES, I DID MY BEST.. LEM WAS MY VERY
FIRST MAP AND I LEARNED "BUILD" WHEN EDITING; LEM2
WAS A TRY TO BUILD A DIFFERENT MAP FROM ALL THE REST
PAYING AN SPECIAL ATTENTION TO AMBIENCE, DETAIL AND
IMPLEMENTING DIVERSE FEATURES NO OFTEN SEEN IN A
DUKE MAP; LEM3 IS AN EXTREME MAP IN ALL ASPECTS:
DESIGN, DETAIL, SHADOWING, PLAYABILITY.. VERY EXTREME,
SOMEONE HAVE DESCRIBED LEM3 "AS A HAMMER IN THE TEETH
OF ANYONE WHO DARES TO BUILD MAPS"-I'm agree :-) :-)
AND FINALLY LEM4 IS MY FIRST DUKEMATCH MAP, VERY
DETAILED AND PROVIDED WITH AN INTERESTING SINGLE PLAY.
ALL THESE MAPS HAVE A COMMON FACTOR, THEY ARE
VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE LEVELS OF THE ORIGINAL GAME.
WHY? BECAUSE I PREFER TO DIRECT MY EFFORTS TOWARDS
CREATING SOMETHING NEW AND SURPRISING; I LOVE CLASSIC
DUKE LEVELS AND I COULD BUILD A LEVEL LIKE THAT, BUT
I'M NOT VERY INTERESTED IN EXISTING IDEAS, I PREFER
THOUSAND TIMES USE MY IMAGINATION FROM THE BEGINNING
TO THE END. I'M A HARD DIE GAMER AND I KNOW PERFECTLY
WHEN A CONCEPT HAS BEEN USED IN A 3D GAME I LIKE,
NORMALLY I KEEP UP THAT IDEA BUT I DON'T USE IT, AND
IF I FIND ANY OTHER IDEA AS GOOD AS THE FIRST ONE BUT
MORE ORIGINAL, I USE IT IMMEDIATELY. THE MOST IMPORTANT
FOR ME IS CONTRIBUTE WITH GOOD LEVELS TO THE GAMERS
COMMUNITY. I LOVE BUILDING 3D LEVELS, I'LL KEEP BUILDING
LEVELS FOR OTHER 3D GAMES AND I HOPE YOU'LL KEEP
PLAYING LEM MAPS. THANKS FOR DOWNLOADING LEM4,
SURE IT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT YOU.

ATENCION!!!!
LEM4.ZIP COPIARA UNOS CUANTOS ARCHIVOS EN
TU DIRECTORIO DUKE3D. SON ARCHIVOS NECESARIOS
PARA JUGAR. TODOS SE LLAMARAN LEM4*.* ASI QUE
LOS PODRAS BORRAR LIMPIAMENTE SI TE INTERESA
-ESPERO QUE NO- NO USES EL SETUP DEL DUKE3D
PARA JUGAR A LEM4, SIMPLEMENTE TECLEA LEM4 Y
YA ESTA. EL ARCHIVO LEM4.BAT SUSTITUIRA TUS ARCHIVOS
USER.CON Y TILES014.ART -SI LO TIENES- TEMPORALMENTE,
CUANDO TERMINES DE JUGAR TALES ARCHIVOS SERAN
RESTITUIDOS, PERO POR SI ACASO, ANTES DE HACER NADA
HAZ COPIAS DE SEGURIDAD.
SI POR ALGUNA RAZON EL PROGRAMA SE CUELGA
ANTES DE QUE EL ARCHIVO LEM4.BAT PUEDA RESTITUIR
LOS ARCHIVOS ORIGINALES QUE FUERON SUSTITUIDOS AL
PRINCIPIO, DEBERAS RESTITUIRLOS TU MANUALMENTE. SE
TRATA DE USER.BIS Y TILES014.BIS -ESTE ULTIMO SOLO
SI YA TENIAS TU PROPIO ARCHIVO DE TEXTURAS- COMPRUEBA
ANTES DE NADA QUE REALMENTE LOS ARCHIVOS NO FUERON
RESTITUIDOS, HAZLO CARGANDO DUKE 3D CON EL COMANDO
"DUKE3D" Y FIJATE SI EL PRIMER EPISODIO SE SIGUE
LLAMANDO LEM EN LUGAR DE HOLLYWOOD HOLOCAUST, SI ES ASI, SAL DEL PROGRAMA Y
RENOMBRA USER.BIS COMO USER.CON Y TILES014.BIS COMO
TILES014.ART SOLO SI EXISTE. NO TOQUES NINGUN ARCHIVO
QUE SE LLAME LEM4*.*
TEN CUIDADO SI PIENSAS EDITAR LEM4 CON BUILD,
HAZLO SOBRE UNA COPIA DE SEGURIDAD DEL MAPA, NO
MANIPULES EL ARCHIVO LEM4.MAP PUES POR ALGUNA RAZON,
HAY ALGUNAS COSAS INESTABLES; EL MAPA FUNCIONA
PERFECTAMENTE PERO TRAS EDITARLO CON BUILD, ES
POSIBLE QUE ALGUNAS COSAS NO VAYAN BIEN.
TITULO : L E M IV ESTE MAPA ES SOLO PARA PLUTONIUM PAK.
ARCHIVO : LEM4.MAP, LEM4.ART, LEM4.CON Y LEM4.BAT

DESCRIPCION : ESTE ES MI ULTIMO MAPA PARA DUKE NUKEM. CREO QUE
YA VA SIENDO HORA DE CAMBIAR DE AIRES, PUES PARECE
QUE EL FANTASTICO BUILD YA HA DICHO TODO LO QUE
TENIA QUE DECIR Y OTROS MOTORES MAS POTENTES, AUNQUE
NO MAS AGRADABLES DE USAR, EMPIEZAN A DESTACAR.
ESPERO DE VERDAD QUE LOS MAPAS LEM TE HAYAN GUSTADO,
YO HE DISFRUTADO COMO UN ENANO CREANDOLOS, HE
APRENDIDO UN MONTON DE COSAS E INCLUSO HA HABIDO
TIEMPO PARA RECIBIR ALGUNA QUE OTRA OFERTA DE
TRABAJO COMO DISE•ADOR DE NIVELES. POR SUPUESTO
PIENSO SEGUIR CREANDO NIVELES PARA OTROS JUEGOS:
QUAKE,HEXEN2, PREY, Y DESDE LUEGO DUKE NUKEM FOREVER.
LES SEGUIRE LLAMANDO LEM, ASI QUE LOS PODRAS RECONOCER
FACILMENTE ENTRE LA MARA•A DE INTERNET.
LEM4 ES UN DUKEMATCH ATIPICO POR MUCHAS
RAZONES, PERO HA SIDO ESPECIALMENTE DISE•ADO PARA
EL JUEGO EN ESA MODALIDAD, A PESAR DE ELLO PUEDE
SER JUGADO EN SINGLE PLAYER E INCORPORA NIVELES DE
DIFICULTAD. NECESITARAS PLUTONIUM PAK PARA JUGARLO.
ESPERO SINCERAMENTE QUE TE GUSTE.
==================================================================
* INFORMACION DEL NIVEL *
1 JUGADOR : SI
NIVEL COOPERATIVO : SI
NIVEL DUKEMATCH : SIIIIIIIIII.
NIVELES DE DIFICULTAD : POR SUPUESTO.
* CONSTRUCCION

BASE : UN POCO DE AQUI.., UN POCO DE ALLA..

HOSTIA EN PATINETE!! HABRA ENGINES MAS POTENTES, PERO
NO MAS AGRADABLES DE USAR NI MAS TRANSPARENTES.
NOS VEMOS PROXIMAMENTE.. Y GRACIAS POR TODO.
