Description:	Note: TO BE PLAYED ONLY ON HURT ME PLENTY!!!This wad is harder than it looks, but its a good challenge. Save often if your a novice. I made this short map for Doomers. Began initially as a holiday map for the NewDoom Community. It was re-titled when real life got in the way of the original release-I also added more content because of this. Most textures in the wad are new and original, the ones(some sprites too) borrowed will be obvious. I wanted to put in a "guest star" sort of feeling.
Credits:	.(looks neat) Additional Credits to id software, Armadillo Aerospace(images), 3d Realms(images/content). All media is presented to celebrate doomy things-all in good humor. ===========================================================================
Base:	From Scratch, everything homemade except id software(images), Armadillo Aerospace(images), 3d Realms(images/content).
Build time:	6 months?? on and off.
Editor(s) used:	Doom Builder. calculator. Photoshop. Wintex.
Bugs:	/Issues I wouldn't trust playing the wad on a diff. port. Everything from the lighting, to the way legacy handles doom2 was considered in making this wad. Its an open map, I wouldn't run into any heavily armed areas without being "prepared" first. This map is rigged, lol. Map02---I like the ice the way it is. Due to the way the map is rendered I wouldn't go beyond and 8 player Deathmatch/Botmatch. * Copyright / Permissions *

Anonymous	Absolute vomit. If I could give negative stars, I would.	x
Anonymous	5 stars - lengendary	x
Anonymous	It's pretty buggy, I played it with the latest version of Doom Legacy (1.42birthday version) and all the vehicles got Z-clipping issues between a vehicle texture and Shawn2. Aside from 3d floors and whatever you got, the wad feels pretty old. Something you could have found on one of those 1000 DOOM WADS cd's in 1995. 2/5 Kristus	x
Anonymous	heh, seems hard at first, but once you understand how it works, its fun.	x
Anonymous	The textures are clever and it reminds me of Redneck Rampage, although it's a snowy level. But it's awful really. A novelty, no fun to play, and indeed the fact it resembles Redneck Rampage or one of the Build engine games makes it seem older and less accomplished than good old Doom.	x
Anonymous	Hmmmm i can't say too much about this wad but i do think it's cool 5 stars.	x

This wad contains a DEATHMATCH map.

NOTE NOTE NOTE!!!!!!!   : To run the wad you may need to type the paremeter -mb 128.
                          Close all windows/other programs besides the ones you need for Legacy Open GL.

STORY                   : The story is pretty much in the wad. Its listed on the options/title screen.

Map info                : A wadset containing 2 levels. Map01 is a single player "linear" map containing "scripted" functions.
                          You should not be able to complete the map without atleast exploring a little. Watch for messages
                          with hints. Map02 is a Deathmatch map only. Great for 4 players, 8 is prolly pushing it. 
                          Lots of neat Legacy GL tricks added. New guns, monsters, items.
                          Added credits screen.(looks neat)
