* LEVEL DESCRIPTION *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This small, tech-themed map is designed for pure and simple 1on1 deathmatch, 
although a 3-4 person free-for-all is in no way discouraged. A vaguely 
symmetrical map, consisting of two teleport-connected exterior rooms laying 
on opposite sides of a three-level center atrium, "Nothing At All" offers 
both fast and calculated gameplay. The health and ammo is sparse, forcing 
players to deal quick, repeated blows while remaining well aware of their own 
vulnerability.

	1 railgun
	1 lighting gun
	2 shotguns

* PLAY INSTRUCTIONS *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Open the lae3dm1.zip file with an unzipping program (such as "Winzip") and extract 
"LAE3DM1.pk3" into "C:\Quake3\baseq3\" (substitute "C:\Quake3\" for whatever 
your Quake3 directory is).

1. Load Quake3.
2. Click "Singleplayer"
3. Select "Skirmish"
4. Select the type of game you want to play (Free For All or Tournament) 
	from the Gameplay field.
5. Next, click the right arrow button on your screen until you see "LAE3DM1" 
	and a screenshot of a rather cool looking level. Click on it and hit the 
	"Next" button.
6. Select the bots you wish to play (if you are unsatisfied with the default bots) 
	and select a difficulty level. Select a timelimit or fraglimit if you want 
	one and once everything is to your liking, click on the "FIGHT" button. 
7. Enjoy!

MAP BASE                : Built from scratch
PREFABS USED            : None
EDITOR(S) USED          : Q3Radiant
CONSTRUCTION TIME	: Over two months.
BRUSH COUNT		: 3747
ENTITY COUNT		: 531
KNOWN BUGS              : Due to the funniness of the border pulse shader (border11c), 
			it does not pulse evenly in one place.
			
			R_speeds exceed 9000 in a few places.
			
			I tried to optimize the .aas file, but for some reason Q3 
			insisted on crashing everytime I loaded the map. That's why
			the pk3 is larger than it should be.

* ADDITIONAL INFORMATION *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If any of id's maps run slow on your system, this map will be no different. On my 
machine, the lowest framerate I've seen in q3tourney4 is aprox. 31fps, while the 
lowest framerate I've noted in lae3dm1 is 34fps. That was in Normal mode @ 640x480 
on a TNT. Yes, r_speeds are too high. When will I ever learn? Someday...

When I play Q3 I turn down all the graphics details anyway.
