Description:	An arena style deathmatch for two players. The centrepiece is a "fake 3D" double bridge. The map has a Quake-esque look and atmosphere. It is an updated design from the original catwalk.wad, and has a few new graphics. The map contains: Tons of snipe spots, plenty of telefrag action, many opportunities for mid-air frags and bloody deaths. There are no spots where someone can "camp" in complete safety.

Base:
Build time:	Too damn long getting the bridge to work...
Editor(s) used:	DCK 3.0, Zennode 0.98a, Dshrink
Bugs:	The 3D Bridge isn't perfect. Projectile weapons don't always work properly when fired from and/or laterally across the bridges. Sometimes the projectile will disappear, other times it will explode in your face. This is obviously only an issue with the rocket launcher. Bullet weapons can be fired across, over and through the 3D sections of the bridges without a problem.

Known Bugs              : The 3D Bridge isn't perfect. Projectile weapons
                          don't always work properly when fired from and/or
                          laterally across the bridges. Sometimes the 
                          projectile will disappear, other times it will
                          explode in your face. This is obviously only an 
                          issue with the rocket launcher. Bullet weapons 
                          can be fired across, over and through the 3D 
                          sections of the bridges without a problem.

Weapons:		: Single shotgun, chaingun, double shotgun and
                          rocket launcher.

Playing Tips		: The structure of the map means that the best 
                          weapons (double shotgun, rocket launcher) are on 
                          the second tier of the bridge. You'll want to
                          get up and down as quickly as possible, as you
                          are very vulnerable and exposed when standing on 
                          the top of the bridge.

The best weapons on this map are probably the 
                          shotguns. Use the rocket launcher with caution.

I hate those people who get all snooty about intellectual property. It's not
as if making Doom wads is an incredibly profitable business, is it? 
Use this map in any way you see fit - for good, for bad and for ugly...

If you can make something better using CATWALK2 as a base, then please go 
ahead.
