-=[ Description ]=-

This is a Deathmatch/Domination map I cooked up in my spare time. It started out
as an adaption of an old Doom 2 DM map that I made for the mega-WAD "Memento Mori",
hence the name (not much of the original Doom layout remains, though).
This level is using a few new textures that DE made, but that were never used in
Unreal/UT. Thanks for Epic and DE for letting me use them! :)
The map has some areas with pretty heavy nodecounts and you'll want a good
machine to enjoy it to its full extend. I made sure that it is not slower than
any of the "slow" UT maps, though. If you can play DM-KGalleon or DM-Liandri
(as two examples) you should be able to play this map, as well. And I think you
get some nice visuals in return, too :)

Memento Mori can be played in two modes:

Deathmatch: This is best played with 4 or more people. The map is pretty open, so 
you should always look for players shooting or sniping you from far away.
Try to run a pattern that leads you to the armor/tighpads that are placed in the map,
and don't try to get caught up in any skirmishes - stop in the entry of the room
and pick out the other players one by one. You should also try to time the invisibility
and damage amplifier together.
If you're wondering what the button in the RL hall does: it opens the sniper plat-
forms up above and drops snipers into the lava. You don't have to press it, you can
shoot it, too.

Domination: The level you got with this readme file is already ready for 
Domination, there's no extra download required! Simply make a copy of the .unr fil
and rename it to DOM-MementoMori. That's it, you're ready to go!

One more hint: There's a secret room in this map (it won't help you to win the map, 
though) :)
If you're a server admin and are running DM-MementoMori on your server drop me a
line, I'll be glad to play it :)
