Description:	The Original Lost WAD floppy disc was dusty. It had inches of dust on it. So, I decided to re-vamp the original, and make it up to date. Well, nevertheless, this is NOT The Lost WAD #1! This level's is based on the first. This is about three times bigger with better traps. I'd ask anyone who plays this to download the original and check out the two side by side.

Anonymous	This is from ten years ago, although it's presumably slightly older. Starts poorly, and I dock a point for using the Aliens door sound, and another point for the silenced pistol sound, and the other sounds. We don't need to hear the zombiemen scream OOAAH! when they die, over and over again. I'm in a bad mood now. To be fair the level isn't awful, it's just very square, mazey, and forgettable. I stumbled on the exit by accident and felt no desire to backtrack.	x
Anonymous	Pretty good.	x
Anonymous	This short map is very avarage, both in gameplay and layout. It's not ugly but not beautiful either, just the common mixture of bricks, wood and some metal. Gameplay is ok, but not hard. Well, avarage, you know... (Oh, and you should take the yellow door before you enter the teleporter, because there's no way back to it.) 2/5 -Milian	x

Description             : The Original Lost WAD floppy disc was dusty.
                          It had inches of dust on it. So, I decided to
                          re-vamp the original, and make it up to date.
                          Well, nevertheless, this is NOT The Lost WAD #1!
                          This level's is based on the first. This is about
                          three times bigger with better traps. I'd ask
                          anyone who plays this to download the original
                          and check out the two side by side.

Story                   : Time has passed. Even though you must stop the
                          spawn from ruling the earth again, you notice
                          a change. Many buildings seem rebuilt with
                          stronger materials. They must be getting 
                          stronger because they are setting more
                          and better traps. This won't hinder you, you'll
                          show them bastards who's boss again. Even
                          if you die trying! (-Same Story!)

Note                    : I suggest playing this WAD under MS-DOS. It plays
                          fine under Doom 95, but I added a new Title
                          Screen, New Help (F1) and the batch file displays
                          this text before the game starts!

* Copyright / Permissions *

Authors MAY NOT use this level as a base to build additional levels due
to the fact of the time that went into the creation of this WAD! Previous
Lost WADs allow this right.

You MAY distribute this WAD, provided you include all parts included in 
this file (this text, as well) with NO modifications! Actually, I wish
you would. 
 
You MAY distribute this file in any electronic format (BBS, Diskette, CD,
online service, etc) as long as you include this file intact as stated. If
chosen for inclusion on a CD-ROM, it would be nice to be e-mailed with
instructions on how to obtain a copy of the completed project (except for
ftp.cdrom.com and it's mirrors)!

Due to past theft of my efforts this is the third WAD to bear a
copyright by me:

* Where to get this WAD *

AOL: AOL does NOT carry game add-ons anymore! If they did, DPS would
have never been created. However, a big thanks to ftp.aol.com for 
mirroring this and past work!

FTP: ftp.cdrom.com and its mirrors world-wide!

WEB: This, and past WADs, are all over the World-Wide-Wait, look for it!
and our home page at http://pages.prodigy.net/manaquake/Home..htm

Various: This WAD is available from your hard-drive or dusty floppies!
From your best friend, your spouse or by e-mail!
