Known Bugs              : I'd love to say none, but there seems to be a
				problem when going from E1M4 to E1M5.
				Occasionally, some computers will freeze
				up and display some funky junk on the
				screen (actually this problem only exists
				on my machine that I know of, it doesn't
				happen on others I've played on). I'm
				not sure why this problem exists, and I'm
				trying very hard to correct it... Once this
				problem happens, you must reboot your machine
				to get it out.  So before you exit E1M4, save
				the game, quit Doom, reload Doom, and then
				load your saved game.

=============================================================================
* TECHNIQUES TO USE DURING PLAY *
	If you aren't VERY good, then DON'T play on Ultra-Violence.  UV is
	designed to have a smegload of monsters.  It's tough even for me, and
	I'm the designer!  I know you will get frustrated if you keep dying
	on UV, but don't say it's my fault.
	
	Read the story. It makes everything fall into place.

	Most of the time, teleport senders are red and teleport recievers 
	are white.  This is not always the case, occasionaly telports will
	both send and recieve.

	You don't have to kill all the enemies yourself, let them kill
	each other.

	Doors that require keys are well marked.  But remember which doors
	require which keys.  This will keep you from spending too much time
	backtracking.

	Most secrets are either obvious, or in a place which would be a
	logical place for a secret.  You'll get the hang of it.

	Be perceptive and look at the AutoMap.  It can show details you
	wouldn't normally notice.

	Water doesn't hurt you.  Which makes sense.  However, in E1M9 there
	is a secret water processing room, in which you will get hurt, not
	because of the water, but because of the radiation to process the
	water in that room (if you go in, you better get out in a hurry...).
	For the same reasons, blood usually won't hurt you either.

=============================================================================
* THE STORY *
	As you numbly awaken to the hiss of incoming air your mind fills with 
the memories, and the expectations.  You, an ex-Space Marine, transferred 
out several years ago to obtain a more scientific position--one with a 
quickly rising company known as Industrial Techware, a company developing 
software and hardware used in ongoing space exploration.  Having teamed 
with UAC in a joint venture, it now had the funding to bring its focus on 
its prime pinnacle--manned exploration of the Stars.
	And so was born Jump Station Alpha, a desolate planetoid manufactured 
from asteroids, space debris, and bio-environments shipped from Earth.  
Inhabited by scientists with one purpose--to build and launch the manned 
vessel that would soon begin exploring the galaxy.
	Your destination.
	Finally.
	You'd wondered when your transfer would be granted--to be one of the 
builders of the great vessel.  Meanwhile your co-workers, one after another, 
got here before you, while you were left behind hearing and seeing the news 
vids and ads proclaiming "Industrial Techware and UAC--Helping Humanity 
Reach Tomorrow's Stars--Today!!"
	And then it came--the roster for the first crew to ship to Alpha for 
the sole purpose of manning mankind's first ship to hit the stars.  Congrat-
ulations--you win!  And the last thing you recall, among the flurry of 
vid-cameras and microphones, was the glass casing sealing you into suspended
animation for your two-year flight to Alpha.
	And by now the medics should have come, awakened hours ahead of you
and the rest of the crew for monitored awakening and help from the freeze-
tubes. But nothing's happening.
	You place your fingers against the plasti-glass hood, press up gently.  
Nothing.  Feeling a panic rise up within you, you stab at the manual-open 
button--no response.  Grasping for the emergency crowbar crowded in beside 
you, you pound gently on the glass until a small crack appears, growing, 
breaking the seal.
	As the hood snaps up with a whoosh you sit up to find the ship
deserted. One quick look confirms it all:  All other monitors show negative
vital signs.  No one left up here...except you.
	You glance out the port to see your destination floating peacefully
out there, getting slowly closer with each second.
	Bzzzzaap!!  You start around suddenly, the main screen coming alive 
with an incoming message...
	On the screen you see a mass-confusion of flickering lights, your
former co-workers covered in blood and smashing machines and lab equipment.
A face appears, taking up the entire screen--it's Amos, eyes wide in sheer
terror, with one warning:  "Go back.  The teleporters have been going
berserk...  Don't let the ship take off, go back, goback, goBA--"
	The message is cut off as a fist appears out of nowhere, knocking the 
man to the ground.  A twisted, ugly face appears for a moment, wearing a 
sinister, gnarly grin.  "See ya soon," it says, then knocks the camera 
off-line with a mighty CRACK!
	Adrenaline rushing through your veins, you start on the ship's 
navigation system...You need to establish an orbit, need time to think...
	Words begin appearing, generated all by themselves, on your computer 
screen...
	"NO CHOICE..."
	None of the manual helm instruments are functioning.
	"...WE CONTROL THE HORIZONTAL..."
	Your altitude indicator becomes active, the numbers descending...
	Rapidly...
	"...AND THE VERTICAL..."
	One quick look out the port tells it all...The rock known as Jump 
Station Alpha is coming at you fast.
	With one quick rush, no time to rethink, you grab for the nearest 
service revolver and head toward the emergency teleporter.  In the midst of 
the red battle-lighting and the hideous sound of emergency alarms it looks 
sinister.
	Swallowing hard you thrust yourself in...

E1M1-You hear an all-too-near explosion as the shuddering Entryway to Jump 
Station Alpha appears, and an all-too-ready welcoming committee.  Your 
mission here:  Obvious.  Stay alive.  And while your here, you might notice 
some of the nice work Industrial Techware has put into this place to make it 
more livable. Watch for signs leading to unexpected places.

E1M2-As you drop in from the aboveground exit you find yourself in a large 
hall cut directly out of the floating rock.  You quickly notice others are 
here as well...

E1M3-Out of the frying pan into the fire...No, really.  Welcome to Alpha's 
Bio-Lab Complex.  Meant for different animal experiments in a deep-space 
environment--come see what's growing down here now, like, say, the planetoid
itself?  You might also notice the temperature meets the action down here...

E1M9-If you've jumped into the right 'porter, you'll find yourself in a 
regular armory.  There are lots of challenges awaiting you here, so look 
alive, Marine, and trust your instincts.  You'll notice you've ended up 
down-river from the water recycling center, with many places to see and 
people (and other things) to do in...

E1M4-Next stop, the Command/Data Collection Complex.  Large places to store 
much data as it is to come in from the Starship.  Only, other-lings from the 
teleporters seem to have taken over the whole place--wonder if that explains 
the turning of the giant reception-transmission dish turned directly toward 
Earth, instead of the great beyond...(You'll also notice a small Water 
Recycling plant behind the place...No drinking, and swim with caution...)
	
E1M5-Next stop, the Asteroid Mining/Fuel Refinery Center. Much nukeage.  
High Technology.  Stay alive...

E1M6-From there we'll forage into the Nuclear Reactor Complex.  There's lots 
to see in the Front Entrance to the facility, and a real reactor with real 
signs and everything.  Just don't take too long to look, until, you know, 
after you've made the place a little safer to breathe in.  And use your suits 
wisely...

		also designing it with an open architecture.  And for
		making the SUPPORT3 texture, you'll be seeing a lot of it.
	Thanks to Antony Burden & Simon Oke for making DETH 3.92.  It is by
		far the BEST editor.  Period.
	Thanks to Autodesk 3D-Studio for allowing me to make some of the new
		wall textures (fans, etc.)
	Thanks to my friend Brett for getting me in to making these levels 
		and out of the dark ages of Wolfenstein.
	Thanks to Rob Crawford for some very bizarre and creative ideas for
		some of the special effects.  And also for writing the ITD
		story that tells you what you need to know, and is
		entertaining also.
	Thanks to IBM for starting personal computing in the first place. And
		also for that nifty motherboard in the background of the
		end screen (let the demos play at the beginning to see it).
	Thanks to whoever I got the pictures from in the E1M7 picture
		gallery.
	To Alan Wilder (Depeche Mode, Recoil) for giving me something to
		listen to while making these infernal levels.

* ABOUT INDUSTRIAL TECHWARE *          
Industrial Techware means many things to many people.  To some, it's a local 
industrial/grunge band.  To others, it's a computer assembly/repair shop.  
And a 3D animation studio.  And a techno group.  And a bunch of guys that 
sit around and make Doom levels. Well, it's all of the above.  
	Here are the members...

If my levels crash your system, it's not my fault. Play at your own risk!
