Author Info : Description : fenexam provides two areas using the instant lift trick to effect a 3D appearance. The first area provides a solid looking floor/ceiling over an underground passageway. Only the passageway can be walked through. The second area provides a simple 'car park' effect using similar techniques. Both areas will work in source ports using software rendering. Gallows.wad is an example of How the effects can be used. A simple gallows over a sunken passage with corpses suspended from it (which are invisible when in the passageway). Note how the sectors are joined to avoid 'cracks' in the ceilng. M_exam is the same passageway using Boom's transfer sector heights property, you can shoot over this version (the other version blocks shots). Works in openGl/D3D ports. Z_exam works in all versions of zdoom from beta 33 onwards and provides two solid floors which can be walked over. (the same technique gives HOM in Boom ect) Additional Credits to : Thanks to Mordeth for inventing the Boom example. Map08 of Vex-Doom by Toke inspired the 'view over' passage. id for DOOM. =========================================================================== * What is included * New levels : 4 Sounds : No Music : No Graphics : No Dehacked/BEX Patch : No Demos : No Other : No Other files required : N/A * Play Information * Game : DOOM2 Map # : Map01 Single Player : Player start only Cooperative 2-4 Player : No Deathmatch 2-4 Player : No Other game styles : N/A Difficulty Settings : No * Construction * Base : New from scratch Build Time : unknown Editor(s) used : DeepSea 11.66 Known Bugs : A minor HOM in the start area of fenexam, occurs if you view both ceilings together.
