Description:	This is a compilation of doom pwads gathered from bbs around the country. Others, like myself, after finishing doom a few times - in a number of different ways - were not content to wait for the new release. They, with the help of some excellant editors now available - DEU 5.0 the editor of choice - have taken it upon themselves to build new levels from scratch!

Anonymous	Ugly and later levels very confusing. plenty of better maps here.	x
Never_Again	This ZIP contains GOODGOD.ZIP. That, in turn, contains GOODLORD.WAD, a compilation of the following WADs: E2M1-E2M3: FOREST.WAD v1.3 (incl. the sky) E2M4: MEGALAB.WAD E2M5: STRANGE.WAD E2M6: STRENGTH.WAD E2M7: WANTON12.WAD E2M8: UPLIFTNG.WAD	x
Anonymous	An old-school (and supposedly Christian-themed?) compilation episode that's not horrible, but not great, either. The first half is decent, with E2M4 being the best of the episode, while the second half is crappy. Still, I've played much worse from the era. 3/5	x

This is a compilation of doom pwads gathered from bbs around the country.
Others, like myself, after finishing doom a few times - in a number of
different ways - were not content to wait for the new release.
They, with the help of some excellant editors now available - DEU 5.0 the 
editor of choice - have taken it upon themselves to build new levels from
scratch! 
        This is no easy task. Days and days went into the testing and
creating of these new levels. Each level took a minumum of 36 hours.
They have been well crafted and are quite enjoyable. The problem, I found
is that they are only one level! I would spend an hour or so getting 
through an incredibly tough level and discover that the next level in line
was the Nuke plant...major let down. Loading the next cool level brought me
down to entry level excitment. This is a compilation of all of those
levels....surrvive one and head right into the next! I have added a few 
batch files to aid the installation of this new adventure!

lvltxts.zip
Many of the level creators in this group expressed the desire to be 
recognized, or made the condition that their levels could not be touched
without the documentation attached. I feel that this type of attitude
is counter productive and arrogant - after all no money is exchanging
hands over these levels, but I have considered their requests, and added
the .txt info that came with the level they created. If you are interested
simply unzip this file - it tells who did what to which level.

run4.batch
This batch file leaves your doom.wad alone....it assumes you have 10 meg
of free space on your hard drive. It unzips the new Goodlord.wad and starts 
the game at the appropriate level of skill.

Good.batch
After the run4.bat file has installed the game, this batch file
will load the game to be run each time you wish to play. This means you
won't have to reload the entire game each time!

Clear.batch
When you are all done playing - for good, this batch program will, 
erase the Goodlord.bat - run4.bat - pkunzip.exe - lvltxts.zip leaving only 
the clear3.bat file to be erased, and your directory as if this entire 
experience had never been.

I put all this together, for those of you who haven't had the time to 
figure out how to do all this stuff. I admit to many frustrations, just
trying to get these new levels to play! I hope this quick fix will hold
you until I can put the next one together!
