================================================================

TITLE: 		the "SILHOUETTE OF DARKNESS"    



================================================================

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: * Visit all crucified zombies in the game. Some have

	            important messages for you. 



================================================================

Setting/story: "Silhouette" starts with you coming upon a Roadhouse.

There a zombie will tell you of a funeral going on whereas they are

burying gold instead of a body. What else?...find that gold.



(Please don't flood me with email asking how I come up with to these 

 marvelous storylines, it's really just a gift :)... & I am joking.

Known Bugs/nonbugs	* You may see the ram icon momentarily in the

			  sound effects temporarily but that never 

			  happened to me nor to my testers. even with

			  only 8 megs allocated to Quake. 



Distribution  		: This level may be electronically distributed 

			  only if siluette.txt & silhints.txt are 

included and at no charge to the recipient, and may not be used or 

modified in any way without written permission from the author. I would 

also like to request anyone who reviews and/or lists "the Silhouette of 

Darkness" at their site to kindly inform me that they have done so. 

================================================================



*** HOW TO RUN SILUETTE *** (with the registered version of Quake)

	- you 'may' have to allocate 12 megs (I didn't) to Quake & 16 

          is even better. 

	  Info on changing that is in your Quake>techinfo.txt 

	- copy siluette.bsp to quake\id1\maps (create the "maps" 

	  subdirectory under your "id1" directory if you don't 

	  already have one). Then to play....



START Quake...

THEN...pull down the console	(by using the ~ tilde key)

**To all those who this applies: As a courtesy to the author (textures

are a lot of work) consider getting WinQuake or Scitech Display Doctor 

and play Quake in a higher resolution. These textures are designed for 

med-high res and are not as appreciable otherwise. With either of those 

progs you do not need a super machine.

================================================================



* Other Info *

This is my 4th SP level. Please let me know what you think of it and
