Title:	AFRO2.WAD
Filename:	levels/doom2/a-c/afro2.zip
Size:	14.14 KB
Date:	03/01/96
Author:	(ID)ries "Afroman" Hamadi
Description:	Based on my first proper WAD (AFRO.WAD) this DOOM ][ WAD is pretty hard (I think). It's still pretty small but I think that it's challenging enough.
Credits:	/Thanks: Matt (see above) for writing Doomcad, and telling me about some patch file to stop the subscript out of range thing for v4.3. Those ID guys (for their obvious contribution). My mouse, for not jamming up! Manjeet Bawa, for trying it out, and for telling me how to make triggered doors.
Base:	AFRO.WAD
Build time:	Not, sure really. AFRO.WAD took me about a week, I had the first DOOM ][ test version ready about 2 days after that. I started to test it, then I got wrapped up in my next WAD for about 2 weeks. I finished it off this weeked.
Editor(s) used:	Doomcad v5.0 and v6.0 by Matt Tagliaferri
Bugs:	None. If you find one (or more) plese write and tell me. There was a finny line def thing in the first room, but I think that that was DOOM CAD (sorry Matt). I've fixed it, but tell me if you see it again. Also, there were no respawn points on AFRO.WAD, this has been fixed.

Anonymous	Playable, only once - 1/5. It looks bad, requires you to find a secret door, is short too. IC	x
Anonymous	For a 95-wad, this is not too bad. But it's very short and easy, mainly because of tons of ammo and goodies you have, in case you find the secrets. The main thing about this map is hordes of monsters in small, mostly dark and bare rooms.	x

			  tell me. There was a finny line def thing in the

			  you see it again. Also, there were no respawn 
			  points on AFRO.WAD, this has been fixed.

Additional Notes        : This level has been created with single play in mind 
			  (boring), although I have tried to make Deathmatch 
			  and Co-op as exciting as possible, I wouldn't recomend 
			  trying it.
				  
			  AFRO.WAD was only sent to a couple of local BBS's 
			  for me to get some feedback. I had none, as OOH! BBS 
			  never actually recieved the file that I sent &8-(
			  so this file is going onto the Internet. This will 
			  eventually be part of a multi level WAD (DOOM ][ 
			  MAP01 to MAP10, mabye further). Also, I plan to use 
			  This level as a base for a Heretic Deathmatch level
			  (as I don't want to start my first Heretic level 
			  from scratch). Finally, the multi WAD may contain 
			  some new textures.

Update:                 : I'm busy with my web page(s) at the moment 
			  (http://www.pncl.co.uk/~idries/index.html), so I don't 
			  know when my WAD buliling career will continue. My 
			  page has lots of WADs available, so take a look.

* Legal stuff *

I don't care, as long as you tell me, and you write my name in the 
credits bit! I don't see many people using bits of my level for other levels
anyway. But if you do, PLEASE don't try to pass it off as you own stuff. That
would PISS ME OFF.

Also, I have heard that there's another AFRO.WAD flying around, if 
you're the author, or you know who is, then write to me, I have been the 
AFROMAN for a long time now, and I'd like it to be the name of my first WAD, 
I don't think that there's any legal problem with that.
