It's a shame this wasn't a single-player level - the textures are fairly simple, but the layout is clever, with a real multi-storey feel. It's actually a little bit creepy just exploring the map.

			  Look for me on IRC EffNet: #DeathMatch,
			  #Quake, and #Unreal.  Nick: _Xanrek_

Misc. Author Info       : Completely addicted to computers (my first
			  computer was a VIC20,) I have little time for
			  anything else.. I need to mow the grass, take
			  out the trash (phew,) clean out the gutters..
			  Naaa.. let's do some DeathMatch!

Description             : Game play takes place underground in a large,
			  rundown reactor complex.  The level contains
			  some secret areas of great use, so be watchful.
			  A lot of the computer panels textures are switches.
			  
Additional Info.        : Most of the sound replacement was taken from
			  Quake shareware & QTEST1 (earlier Quake release.)
			  Some of the sounds were edited.  If for some
			  reason you don't want to hear the computer sounds,
			  put in the command line -nomonsters.  One of my
			  concerns in designing this level was frame rate.
			  I tried not to go overboard on the detail, but
			  it's hard to judge sometimes using a faster
			  system, so certain areas can be somewhat demanding
			  on slower CPU's (486 or lower,) 3 or 4-way DM
			  with one of these systems present can slow
			  down frame rate.  Please E-mail me with any
			  comments, suggestions, and challenges!  Thanks
			  and enjoy!
