-SOMETHINGAWFUL.COM presents... -A Frankie Burke Production -A level by Jed Kirchner *===================================* + + + CRANKY STEVE'S HAUNTED WHOREHOUSE + + + *===================================* Mission Briefing +++ CLASSIFIED INFORMATION +++ After a thorough investigation regarding the reported deaths of several homeless people and Dairy Queen employees in the State of New Jersey it has been confirmed that the Strogg have in fact established a secret underground base beneath a brothel in the downtown Hoboken area in which they have constructed a huge, powerful supercomputer. Intel reports show, among other things, that this computer emits strange noises and is located in a really large room. We, unfortunately, know precious little about this room but it is entirely within the realm of possibility that the aforementioned computer is being used to hack into our military defense systems. Now, you should know as well as I do that should control of our nuclear warheads fall into the hands of the Strogg it could bring about the end of western civilization as we know it, moderately wounding Dick Clark in the process. You have been selected for this mission because your previous combat experience shows that you possess a certain talent for hitting switches and firing projectiles in the general direction of aliens. You should consider it your priority to shut down the Strogg supercomputer at all costs, even if it involves blowing up the computer core, destroying the entire base, or a restored garden wheel horse tractor of some sort. We don't know very much about the highly advanced computer technology you're going to encounter but fortunately we were able to enlist the help of a highly regarded computer systems expert who will be in contact with you throughout the mission. With his assistance you should be able to render the Strogg supercomputer inoperative and maybe even find my car missing keys... -General Woodsey Mcmoses +++ END TRANSMISSION +++ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * HOW TO RUN THIS LEVEL * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Create a folder in your Quake2 directory called 'cranky' and put the .pak file in there. Then create a shortcut to Quake2 and add to the command line: +set game cranky +map cranky +set skill x (where x=0,1,2, or 3) Or, instead of making a shortcut, you could just bring up the Quake2 console and type game cranky skill x map cranky which I find to be a lot easier. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * ADDITIONAL LEVEL INFORMATION * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TITLE : Cranky Steve's Haunted Whorehouse FILENAME : cranky.zip .zip CONTENTS : pak0.pak cranky.txt AUTHOR : Jed Kirchner e-Mail : jed@gamedesign.net HOMEPAGE : http://www.angelfire.com/nh/rdp Cranky Steve and Jeff K also have their own respective webpages at http://www.somethingawful.com/cranky and http://www.somethingawful.com/jeffk DATE : 05/05/2000 SINGLE PLAYER : Yes CO-OPERATIVE : no DEATHMATCH : no DIFFICULTY SETTINGS ? : Yes NEW TEXTURES ? : Yes NEW SOUNDS ? : Yes CD TRACK # : 0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * CONSTRUCTION * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PREFABS USED : Wheelswitch prefab by EutecTic EDITORS USED : Worldcraft 1.6 UTILITIES USED : ArghRad 2.01 Wally 1.39H Beta Qped 2.0 Mapspy 0.7 KNOWN BUGS : None COMPILE MACHINE : PENTIRUM 3 5000 132 K RAM NUMBAR 9 VIDEO CARD JOYSTICK MOUSE KEYBOARED 33 INCH MONITAR QBSP3 : ?
