Description            : Single Player Level for Quake I, inspired so far from a small bunker
                          close to the village I spent almost all of my adolescence. 
                          This bunker has been erected just before 1870 war against Germany...
                          I also had some "good" time during my army period there as well..

                          This map needs Quoth2. 
                          You need either aguirRe's GLQuake or FitzQuake0.85 to play this map

                         OTOH, due to some HOms issues on fullvis, the map is only fastvised: it may
                           generates some frame rate drop down in some area.

Despite Humanity efforts, Quake evil forces has landed on Earth...  War is there... 
And Chton is about to come... Where ? In a hidden mountain secret base, near a volcano... 
As per Marine Corps HeadQuarter informations, the base extracts its power from the volcano,
refining lava to use it in a new generation nuclear reactor... Endless energy is provided 
to the base through this brand new technology... Marine Corps HeadQuarter think that 
Quake forces plan to use the nuclear reactor in order to activate an interdimensional portal, 
and then starts a massive Earth invasion... The end is near.. Chton's Legions 
of Death are ready... Marine, You have to stop them...

Your mission is to enter the base, disable the reactor, and come back.. alive as far as 
possible... and if any of these bastards try to prevent you to achieve the mission: feel 
free to send it back to Hell...

Good luck Marine

You have to:

1. Unzip this zip file in ../quake/Quoth directory, preserving the folder hierarchy of the 
     zip archive.. I assume Quoth folder is Quoth2 ;)
2. Run Quake. [FitzQuake0.85 is preferred, and don't forget to add "-hipnotic -game quoth -heapsize 64000" 
     options in the command line]
3. Then load the map by typing "map fort_driant".
4. Play the map.
5. Enjoy it or hate it.
6. Exit the game.
7. Launch your mail program.
8. Please give a feedback mail to lambert_jph@yahoo.fr for mapping improvement... 

Good luck... and have fun !!!
