Beeing busy...
Ok, I have school days from 7:00am to 4:00pm... Then I have to work in DooM 2000 project, update my webpages, go to gym, have fun... It's not amazing that I'm updating a bit slow...

Some chages...
Yeah, I changed My levels -section a bit... And added Reclamation DM there also, because I have made levels for it too, and that section will now also list bigger projects where I have made some levels... Also I updated Tranquil Lament Software's link at links-section.

Da Reviews
I recommend "A Hell Day" to everyone who likes big, detailed, open feeling and challenging levels. I think it was quite great!
Then again I also recommend UAC for all those who like mixture of DooM, DooM 2 and something new... Great pack of levels!

Looking for a coder...
The following message is not by me... A friend asked me to place it here:

Help wanted for a new TC - Die Hard Doom

This TC is based on the movie "Die Hard", and has been translated with perfect accuracy; levels have gone through many stages of design so that they look like the movie. It also contains the best looking, most realistic guns in any Doom TC that we've seen - many hours have been spent touching up specially taken digitised photos, and studying videos so that the gun flares are correct.
This TC has been in production since 1997, and, with the advent of source ports such as ZDoom and Doom Legacy, we need someone who can modify a source port for us.
Most of the coding is fairly simple stuff; stuff that should have been in previous source ports but wasn't, but we would also like some more trivial things, such as MOD music in a DOS version, and a slightly different multiplayer setup.
So, if you're a coder and would like to be a part of a so far very impressive Doom 2 TC, or you just want to become part of the team, email me at:

ZDooM with 56K modem... OK!
Just recently I bought myself a new 56K modem (it cost me 71.8 euros, which I think is something like 68.2$ or so...) and on thursday I had a deathmatch with a friend through internet and without any -dup commands or anything we had a very playable game! So 56K modem seems to be enough for playing ZDooM with good speed... There is a screenshot of our game on "Screenshot Of Update"... The level was BaseDM #1 by me :)

Reviewing stuff...
