Description:	I started mapping back in 2012, and during that early period of excitedly screwing around with DB2 I made a half dozen maps for a couple different projects that all amounted to nothing. They were sitting in a random folder gathering dust until I found them and thought they were charming enough to warrant sharing. The first two maps were made when I had no idea whatsoever how map formats or engine specifications worked, so I just made them in UDMF becuse that's what I was told to do. Then I found vanilla/limit removing, and things get a lot more straightforward from there.
Credits:	Bobby Prince for the music tracks. SomethingAwful's Classic FPS thread for getting me into this hobby in the first place. Tarnsman & Alfonzo for actually teaching me how to map after I made these, and pulling me from whatever the hell I was doing in 2013 during my Doom II in Name Only phase. Yikes.

Description             : I started mapping back in 2012, and during that early period of excitedly screwing around with DB2 I made a half dozen maps for a couple different projects that all amounted to nothing. They were sitting in a random folder gathering dust until I found them and thought they were charming enough to warrant sharing. The first two maps were made when I had no idea whatsoever how map formats or engine specifications worked, so I just made them in UDMF becuse that's what I was told to do. Then I found vanilla/limit removing, and things get a lot more straightforward from there.

These maps are - as far as I'm aware - wholly unedited from their finished state from 2012, aside from some minor retexturing done in Map 03. I stupidly tried to map with the resources of both Doom IWADS loaded, and have subsequently swapped out the Doom 1-only textures. I've also included some classic Doom 1 music being added for this release.
