Uploaded by RL (super_shotgun35@yahoo.com) =========================================================================== Title : " PHOBOSPHERE " Filename : Sphere.wad & Seeker.mid Release date : April 1995 Author : David J. Reid a.k.a. MoonLust Email Address : 75451,3430 on Compuserve Other Files By Author : Wyvern Heights and Palace of Malice for Heretic. Misc. Author Info : Description : Well,...you arrive at a pre-determined point in the level...and you find some weapons and ammo...and you take a look around...and you see some really scary bit-maps come at you...and you shoot them with your 8-bit "Digi-Blaster"...and they groan and fall over. No mystery here...just common sense. : ) Seriously, folks, this WAD has a ton of high quality samples that I felt the need to have. The size of this file is huge because of it. The base level is around 270kb ! The sounds and MIDI equal around 310kb! And this .TXT file alone is bigger than most peoples' complete WAD's. The MIDI file that I included was written exclusively for an SB16 or compatible - that means FM Synthesis. I felt that writing for this platform would be about the best way to convey the music to a general audience. If you have one of those wave-table synthesis jobs...Well, good for you and your good taste (again!). I, unfortunately, just have the wonderful FM synthesis to work with (and so do millions of other users). I just figured that the needs of the many outweighed the needs of the few (where have I heard that before?). Now, if you want to talk about 16 bit 44.1khz digital audio samples... That's opening another can of Imps...GOTHIC MIDI mostly deals with "CD quality" samples for use with synths and samplers...Be on the lookout for GOTHIC files on C-Serve... If you find this file to be too big in size...Maybe your Nintendo is calling for you! If you find that it needs to be bigger, drop me a line and we'll Co-Author a Mother.WAD. Originally, this level was intended to be E2M1 but I wanted the sky texture in the first Episode. From here on in, it's E2M1 (to conform to id Software's request). Another worthy note: If you open this file in an Editor program you will lose the music and the sound effects. Always make a backup before you hack it up! Again, GOTHIC MIDI is Multimedia...and yes, that includes text!! (I don't do shabby work...If it's worth doing...it's worth doing right).

Authors AND Players MAY enjoy this GOTHIC MIDI WAD immensely and I wish you luck against the squeeling CacoDummies (Isn't that a cereal?). You MAY distribute this WAD, PROVIDED you include this file, with no modifications, AND you write the Author First to notify him. (I just want to keep track of my files...Is that so wrong? : ) You may distribute this file in any electronic format (BBS, Diskette, CD, etc) as long as you include this file intact.

Let's just keep this simple... 1.) If you NEED this file for your project...Please drop me a line and perhaps we can work something out. 2.) You can pass this file around as a WHOLE...not in segments. This is for Doom fans and authors only. If I hear this music in the background of a Tampax commercial..."Dere's gonna twouble, Boy!" 3.) If you MUST pass this on to the good people of the Internet...I would appreciate it if you would write me first. The only real rules in life are those of good judgement and common courtesy. * Where to get the file that this text file describes * The Usual: ftp://archives.3dgamers.com/pub/idgames/ and mirrors Web sites: FTP sites:
