Additional Credit*

* I have to give the bulk of the credit to the makers of TREAD, its an 
           absolutely great program due to its accessibility and ease of use.
* ID Software, of course, for Quake 2.
* RUST- for the plethora of info provided :  http://www.gamedesign.net 
* Thnx to J who lets me test every map on him =) oh yeah and my nephew "Mox"
  and my pals in clan Goth clan, LowRayder in particular and then Cyberghost of course.
* Huge thanx go to these guys whos map "JumpBeach" and freely shared info about how to make the 
   jump pads work and made their use for me possible : Monsto Brukes, MrHyde, Scampie :
   http://tarot.telefragged.com/ryo i can't thank them enough.
* There are no new textures or custom anything in this 1 

*GAMEPLAY INFO*

 Single Player :  nah
 Deathmatch :  well, thats what i made it for
 Cooperative :  nope, unless you gang up on some lpb in dm.
 Difficulty Settings: nope
 Base System:  Celeron 333-not oc'd /128 RAM /Voodoo2 Blackmajic
 Player load : ARGH-COUGH-BLEHHH !!! (i hate this catagory) 
               i think 4-8 ffa seems to be about right
               i do believe that 1 on 1 though a tad slow is fun in this too
               it boils down to personal opinion and thats why i usually don't
                bother with recommending a number.
 * i am no good at makin bot routes, the Erasers i use don't like the jump pads anyway
    but if you (read whoever) can make and send me a good one i'd be indebted =) *

        folder and let 'er rip
 
 
*NOTES*
   Ok then, this the first map i have made with all the goodies being native to Q2 paks.
   Had to fight the urge to add custom this and that, i prevailed over the urge and i think
   the thing turned out alright. There is one veiw angle where r_speeds get above reasonable
   (they are about 700) but beyond that the speeds are in the good range and the map plays
   very well with no noticable slowdown that i could find.
 
 
 OH YEAH please let me know what you think good or bad, i'm not overly 
  sensitive either just go easy with the harsh language, remember we live in a "society".
 
 If ya get this far, i run a very private (shh don't tell anyone) server that is generally
  run as Rail-gun only with loads of custom maps. If ya want to join us there drop a line
  and i'll send you the password.

    A few are at one of my clans WoD server at 24.113.104.178 You will need to install 
     the WoD mod to benefit the most in there. Say "hey" to all the LOF peops you see there.
    Give a "hey" to all the [GoTH] folks you see also. 
 Please drop by and look for either Maric or Havok
