			  Don't look for my phone number in this file,
			  You'll find it in the MAP (have a look at the
			  gallery with DUKE's face above its entrance).
		
Description             : THE POOL is my first MAP for DUKE NUKEM 3D. I
			  didn't mean to build a huge level (though it
			  is !), but especially to take care over de-
			  tails such as sounds, scale and realism. I
			  think the map is OK now, and I hope you'll
			  like it. Please let me know ! 

			  THE POOL was originally designed for Single
			  Player, but it fits Co-op well, too. Sorry
			  for Dukematch addicts, I tried to adapt THE
			  POOL, but there was really no way to (players
			  would spend too much time to find each other
			  in the map).

			  Please don't use cheatcodes to get a jetpack,
			  cheating is no fun !		

Story                   : Though aliens forces seem to have disappeared
			  from the earth after the fall of the CYCLOID
			  EMPEROR, you've heard that a group of survi-
			  vors had managed to escape.

			  Searching the city for a suitable area where
			  to build a new headquarter, remaining aliens
			  have chosen a swipping-pool where to settle
			  back and power up before the final assault.

			  You must now get rid of these last opponents
			  before they reach their goal: spreading the
			  terror around the earth again.

	If you love to search and find secret places yourself, please

	find them yourself, see below.

(*)	visible or easy to find
(**)	quite easy to find
(***)	hard to find
(****)	very hard to find or requiring a specific method

1. Find red footsteps and a blood trace on an outside wall. Press on it
   and a door will open on your left(***).

2. Press on the lit HELP SCREEN in men's toilets(*).

3. Still checking men's toilets, search for a passage in the room where
   a dead priest hangs(***).

4. Look for a dancing woman in the women's toilets, and search her room
   for a door(***).

5-6. Walk through the wall right behind you when you're facing women's
     showers(***). At the end of the hidden hall, a secret door opens
     on the right side(**). 

7. In the bar, explore the back of the scene behind the two dancers(*). 

8. Get down on your knees to enter a small passage in the right wall
   under the piston in the "SUB" level(****).

9. Have a look at the pavement on your left when you are facing the le-
   vel end symbol(*).

10. While you're falling down to the minibosses' room at the end of the
    level, try to stay as close as possible to the right wall. You will
    land on a hidden platform(****).
