Description             :Deathmatch in a rural setting
========================================================

Out in the countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, enforcement agents work with tournament champions to practice their assault tactics.  The farmhouse allows them to hone infiltration skills in privacy, safety and in a somewhat realistic environment.

 Author's Notes
================
This is my first map and more or less a learning experience.  The map consists of, well, a barnyard.  There's a house, a barn and a few other outbuildings.  The house is still under construction, hence the missing doors, windows and building materials on the site.  Support for multiple play types was thought through, watch for snipers and be careful poking your head around corners.

The map can be fast as there are routes everywhere.  I recommend 2 to 4 players, any more is ridiculous - unless you like that sort of thing.  Constructive feedback is most welcome.

The map is fairly true to life in many aspects but for total realism I'd use the No Powerup mutator to remove the keg of health and so on.  It plays pretty well with Infiltration.


==============
 Installation
==============
Put DM-BARNYARD in unrealtournament/maps.  Put the Byard.utx file in unrealtournament/textures.

Also to the many editing sites out there for the tutorials (unrealized, dukeed.com, -unrealed.org- and unrealed.net) and of course Epic and the talented folks who brought us UT.  Some of the textures used came from RealMaps at PU so credit goes to them for ModernTextures and Urban.  Thanks to CoffeeCan from Real Maps for the beta feedback.

-- Testing Information ---
The map was tested with bots in single-player, in a Lan and on-line.  Mutators tested include Slay Alarm, the bonus pack 1 relics, add-on models, the Revenge mutator and Infiltration, including Dark Match.

I've tested it on a PIII-667, PII 450 and PII-400 with GeForce and Voodoo2 cards and it seems to run fine with a max of 4 players.  

--- Known bugs ---
 Mirrors - shoot them and they leave gray squares, could be a DX bug(?)
 Bot paths - if anyone has a tutorial on bot pathing Jumps, send it my way!
 Architecture - some odd spots inside, but they don't affect gameplay
 Bounding area - the Invisible collision hall is a bit lame, I want to block players but not weapons fire.

	Suggestions for how to fix these and any other bugs you find are welcome.
