- Description : Hell has taken over the Earth and you are the
- only hope. You must journey to the underworld
- and fight Satan's spawn with deadly force. You
- start in a courtyard and work your way to the
- darkest pits of hell. Intense deathmatch action.
- Has unique original deathmatch starts which
- completely eliminate cheap frags gained from
- killing someone the second they start.
- You'll see...
-
- Included in the MAWGFX.WAD are new graphics
- that replace the death scenes for a few of the
- monsters and a few of the gore sprites. Watch
- the blood fly! You'll need to have DEUSF for
- this or NwT or something along those lines.
-
- In MAWSND.WAD I've collected sounds and music
- and put the best of the best together. Credit
- has to go the makers of the WADs that I borrowed
- the sound and music from.
-
- Additional Credits to : ID, Ben Morris, Colin Reed, Andy Badorek for
- sounds and music from TWISFX.WAD, Bill Neisius,
- Bjorn Hermans for music from ETERMUS.WAD
- Olivier Montanuay, Ian Springer for music
- from GOREGSND.WAD, Gary Atkinson for playtesting

-
- E-MAIL ME ABOUT THIS WAD! Do you like the graphics, the design, anything?
- Do you hate the whole damn thing? Tell me this stuff. I want to know.
- Also send me any comments towards any other WAD I have made. And
- if you have any ideas for my next WAD send 'em to me. I can make just
- about anything (I've made burning overturned cars, helicopters, street
- lights....) I'm on CSERVE at 103220,3302.
-
- What's next you say? Well I'm thinking maybe a sequel to SENTRY.WAD (a great
- level I made which can be found on cserve in the doom2 deathmatch forum) but
- this time put in even more detail. Yea, I know what you're thinking. After
- having cars in a level how do you top that? Well, actually, I don't know.
- But this level is gonna defy all that you thought was impossible with the
- DOOM 2 engine. It's gonna be huge, it's gonna look just like a real city,
- right down to the last detail. This may not be final, but I'm thinking of
- possibly having citizens in the streets or on the sidewalk. I already
- know how to do it, it's just a matter of if it's worth it. You'd need to use
- a dehacked patch and I really don't like messing with the .exe so I'll prob.
- skip that idea. But, it's still a possibilty, I could change the graphics
- of a certain sprite, like the pillar for example. The only problem with that
- is if you don't use the graphics patch then the level looks stupid with a
- bunch of pillars in the street. Plus, without a dehacked patch you cant
- shoot the innocent citizens which wouldve been very cool. Maybe I'll turn
- commander keen into citizens, but then they'd have to be hanging from the
- ceiling. I don't know what I'll do, but believe you me, this is gonna be
- better than Perdition's Maw, and it's gonna be the next best thing to Quake.
- And if you're looking for something like this that challenges all that
- DOOM 2 limits crap, download D2PRISON.ZIP. I made birds chirping by the
- trees, a helicopter, etc. And you don't even have to use a patch to get
- all the cool effects.

- * TECHNICAL QUESTIONS *
-
-
- Here are some, ummm, commonly asked questions relating to this WAD.
-
- Q: Sometimes, when I play this WAD I get the urge to kill and then I
- slash my wrists and run through the streets yelling, "The end is nigh!"
-
- A: Obviously you have some psychological problem. This could be related
- to the WAD (yeah right) or perhaps some childhood incident. Were you
- at any time, subjected to military drug experiments, have you ever eaten
- a whole container of glue, or have you ever hung out with Michael Jackson?
- If you answered yes to any of these questions you should probably seek
- help at your nearest shelter for the mentally ill.
-
-
- Q: Why is the sky blue?
-
- A: Perhaps you didn't read above. This is SUPPOSED to be a area for questions
- about this WAD. But noooooooooo, thanks to people like you valuable space
- is wasted. Just for that, I'm not gonna answer that question.
-
-
- Q: I hate you and your WADS! Go to hell!
-
- A: Well that's not really a question, so we'll skip to the next one.
-
-
- Q: Is there a point to this section?
-
- A: Congratulations! You finally caught on! The answer is NO.
-
- And if you didn't know by now, these were jokes, and are not meant to be
- taken seriously. And remember, that coffee at the drive-thru is hot!
