============================================================================================
THE PLOTLINE for this unit is the following (please read to understand better what is
going on before playing, this text is highly relevant and should in fact be quite useful):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reports of Strogg colonists building up their new home at the side of a large
mountain-side has been worrying the USMC command central for quite a while. Intelligence
satelites have revealed the structure of this new settler's base: It consists of two main
parts, an upper and a lower base installation. 

The upper part is the main quarter of the colony, with a central hub only known as the
"Emerald Base", whereas the lower base consists mainly of the Strogg command centre for
the construction and development of this full Strogg mountain base. Together, these two 
bases constitute a new and serious threat, and most be stopped before the progress of 
building it goes too far. 

So you have been called for duty. Unfortunately, the intelligence division could not say
much about the defences installed in either of the two bases. It is expected that these
may be quite plentiful, and lethal. Extreme caution and a strategic approach is probably
needed to survive. Especially getting to the Colonist Leader for this two-piece base 
installation is expected to be against all odds, but it is needed to shut down the 
colonist development.

Now, you are landed by your command at the top part of the Emerald Mountain Base. This is
what you've been training for. Get ready for some horrifying action.

Welcome to the Tef Double Pack IV; enjoy!
============================================================================================


* Loading information *

To load "Tef Double Pack IV":
- Put the "tef2.bsp" and "tef3.bsp" in the /quake2/baseq2/maps/ directory.
- Start Quake2 as you usually would do.
- Pull down console, type "skill 2" (or "skill 3", "skill 1" or "skill 0"). Press enter.
- Then type: "map tef2" to begin.

(Do not type the quotation marks)

NB! Please start with "tef2.bsp" as the unit will not play properly otherwise!!! This is
important. Also, cheating will seriously screw up the line of events in this unit. DON'T
CHEAT. If things get too hard, lower the skill level. They are there for a reason. 		 


*Notes*

I have mainly tested and developed this pack using a Voodoo2 3dfx-based video card, and
a 3D accelerator card is heavily recommended for playing this pack! Software users may
experience serious slowdown on some occasions, depending on the skill level and how they
play the levels. On HARD skill, which is really hard, the action can get quite over
the top at times, and in the larger areas, this could slow down the game in software mode
pretty much, although things should go fairly OK.

I designed this for gaming with a 3dfx mode or any other compliant OpenGL 3D accelerated 
mode in mind. Nevertheless, I do hope that software users also will be able to enjoy this
pack, but bear this note in mind while playing if that shouldn't be the case. Besides, 
why are you still playing Quake II in software mode? I also thought I had played Quake II
until I bought a Voodoo2 card. Then I realized I had been playing something totally
different...;)

A note about the skill settings: HARD skill is really hard this time. No excuses. No fuzz.
It is just plain hard. It's supposed to be, so don't complain about it. I have tried to fine-
tune things quite a bit, so it is possible. But if it gets too wild for you, try "medium", 
or (god forbid) "easy". EASY is easy, and will probably only take out a few percent of the
true potential in the gameplay of this pack. So try HARD first, then adjust accordingly.
