About This File

Issue 1 Although this is my second release, its the first wad that I completed to my satisfaction. Went back to it recently and added a few lighting effects. I also pinched the sky from "plutonia" to give a 'bright & breezy' feel.

This level is 214kb when unzipped.

(Issue 2) Many thanks to those who e-mailed me ref Issue 1. This issue has removed that terrible bug at the start (how annoying). I have also changed the sky - less garish than before.

The second map in the dickie series is a pretty standard 90s map, starting with a dark, E4-esque maze before continuing on to some basic fights. Nothing really stands out as exceptional, though I will say that it's annoying you have to leap for the SSG and then backtrack all the way to the teleporter for the blue key card. Was that really necessary?

This is from 1998. I haven't played any of the others in the series. This one gets off to a poor start, with a dark cavern maze that sickens me. It improves considerable when you get outdoors, and continues to get better as it goes along. It's done in a Doom II style, which is unusual, as most levels seem to be inspired by Doom I. Nice balance of health, ammo, and monsters, bit too many "chaingunner balconies". Becomes very good by the end.

Although technically not as good as later entries in the series, dickie2 has a special kind of atmosphere, which makes it one of my favorites. This map was released in 1998, but it has that old-school 1995 feel, without having the shortcomings of those old maps.

Probably two levels here, which are mechanically linked together with blue door as border. In both are too blended texture selection on my taste - cave, metal, wood, redbrick etc. Don't look as wad by famous mapper either (but little better than dickie01). Early ssg grab is quite annoyingly tricky, because you shall need to skip twice two barons on a narrow ledge. *** /hth

      Lots of traps and monster closets. Some switches are activated by shooting but there's nothing to really tell you about this because they look the same as other switches.   Texturing is good and enemy placement proved rather difficult at times. There aren't may health pickups on UV so it was a fight to get through.

      It's pretty good for 1994. If you don't mind having no health items at all (except in a few maps) and the outrageous amounts of cyberdemons per map, you should give it a try. It's pretty challenging and I like it. E2M3 is a bit 'eh...' though.

      What the actual f*ck is this map. I love having 4 rockets, a shit ton of bullets and like 10 shotgun shells to take out a revenant, and whatever was in that cage. Doesn't look too bad, maybe this negativity is cus im no expert, also rather unskilled at the game?

      thank god Underhalls was the map that followed this mod as that level was able to remind me what actually competent level design looks like.

      Not that bad, even kind of interesting find the secrets in the map! But yeah, that switches jungle is a awful choice really.
