			  This is the homepage of the 20 level DOOM II wad I
                          made, and my other Quake and Quake II
			  levels, visit it!

Description             : A unique Quake II level that sometimes
			  resembles the Palace levels.  However, as
			  you will discover, that this is more like
			  a luxurious hotel. 

			  This level also features a swimming pool, bar and even a 
			  disco, complete with music and disco lighting!	
			  The level is quite colourful, but I dont think 
			  that I overdid it.  There is a BIG difference
			  in the visuals of the level between the 3D accelerated
			  mode and Software mode. 

Story			: Some important intergalactic ambassadors have
			  crash landed and taken refuge in a hotel.  They
			  are trapped in a bomb shelter, and unable to leave because
			  the Strogg will kill them.  You have to clear the hotel
			  to allow the ambassadors to escape before the air strike comes
			  and exterminates everyone.

			  Well there is a possibility of getting an Index Overflow
			  error if you cheat, so dont cheat!  You may
			  also get it playing co-op.  If you do, try changing
			  all the models to MALE.  This reduces the number of
			  sounds loaded, which causes this error.

*Additional Information *

	I love getting e-mail from people who tell 
	me what they thought of my levels, especially if they liked
	them.

	You might notice that some of the columns really look curved!
	This is thanks to ArghRAD v2.0, which allows you to use
	a special lighting technique to simulate curved surfaces.
	
	If you like my level, try my web site (address at top of text file)
	for more levels by me.

	If you wan't advice or help with making Quake or Doom level,
	I will be glad to help.  Just e-mail me, my address is at the
	top of the text file.
