                          Duke3D Dukematch.  Judas24 is my first Quake level.

Description             : Judas24 is based on my judas23.wad (for DOOM2 
                          deathmatch) and represents the last level in 
                          the Judas Series for either DOOM2 OR Quake.
                          I have designed this level to be used with 
                          Avatar's deathmatch 3 QuakeC patch (included).

* Pleasant Notes *

        Judas24 is intended for use with a DEATHMATCH 3 QuakeC patch!
I've included Avatar's deathmatch 3 patch, but any other similar patch
will suffice.  If you don't have a deathmatch 3 patch (how could you
not if you have the judas24.zip file?), the deathmatch 2 setting that's
built into Quake is the next best thing.

        In creating Judas24 I learned that Quake DOES have limitations;
please forgive any choppiness on slower computers.  However, Quake also has
many more capabilities than DOOM did, and it's those capabilities that have
allowed me to transform judas23.wad into the level I originally wanted it
to be.  Hopefully you'll not only recognize Judas23's basic form in Judas24,
but also appreciate the full third dimension that Judas23 lacked.  I've
really attempted to remain faithful to Judas23's original look - hence the
dark, claustrophobic atmosphere & the wide open sky above.  In any case,
Judas24 should promote intense matches for 4-8 players.
        
        I've tried to create a level that will play decently in both LAN
and TCP/IP games, but I would say that LAN games will probably be a more
enjoyable experience in Judas24 compared to TCP/IP games.  Also, due to
Quake's flexibility through the console, I've followed id's example in their
DM series of levels and left an exit out of Judas24.  Finally, sixteen 
info_player_deathmatch starts are present in Judas24, so even in 16-player
carnage few unfair telefrags should occur.  

        To use the included deathmatch 3 QuakeC patch, do the following:

        1) make a directory called \DMATCH3 in your \QUAKE directory (it 
           must be parallel to the \ID1 directory)

        2) unzip the contents of DMATCH3.ZIP into the \DMATCH3 directory

        3) to use deathmatch 3 mode, start Quake like this:

           quake.exe +deathmatch 3 -game DMATCH3 -listen -<other commands> 

    Note:  You can also type DEATHMATCH 3 from the Quake console before
           you start Judas24 (or you can restart Judas24 after you've 
           initiated the deathmatch 3 mode from the console). 

        Thanks for playing Judas24 - enjoy!
