About the Archive
----------------
This map originally started out as an add-on map. Whenever I had time, I would just add on polys here or there. Eventually after 5 months, the marathon editor I was using told me that I couldn't add any more polys, as I was pretty much maxed out. Well, since then I have uploaded a few versions of "Shoot 'Em Up", but this is the FINAL release. The reason you can tell is because there should be two maps in the original archive, "Shoot 'Em Up 1", "Shoot 'Em Up 2", "Shoot 'Em Up Cheater Map" and this "README".

If you are using the original sound and shapes file, then use "Shoot 'Em Up 1"

If you have installed the Ultimate Hack .02+, which gives you things like a shotgun instead of the alien gun and exploding barrels, then use the enhanced map file 
"Shoot 'Em Up 2"

If you use "Shoot 'Em Up 2" with the original shapes and sound files, nothing bad will happen to your machine. You'll just have alien guns all over the place, and mad bobs that run after you and blow you into the future when they hit you. =)

You can get Ultimate Hack .02 (or greater) off the net. If you don't have net access then you can check around, maybe some local Bulliten Board might have it.


How to Use "Shoot 'Em Up"
-----------------------
Which ever map file applies to your current preferences, just rename the one you 
want to use to MAP. The map file *MUST* be called MAP.


Miscellaneous info about "Shoot "Em Up"
------------------------------------
I have also included a file called "Shoot 'Em Up Cheater Map". There are some secret areas in "Shoot 'Em Up". So if you REALLY want to know where they are, open this file with a graphics program. This file was saved in the PICT format.

Believe it or not this map is loaded with surprises! Find them first and you'll be the god of the net field! 

Enjoy. I don't plan on adding anything additional to this map, as according to the map editor I used (not naming for just legal reasons) I can't add anymore polys.

You can reach me via email at: spacedude@tmsbbs.com. I would love to hear from you regarding this map file. I have worked on a couple other maps, but decided not to release them. My plan is to work on maps for Mara2 when it's out! Watch for more maps from SpaceDude!

You can also see me on IRC at channel #marathon every now and then. 

You may freely distribute this map file as long as you FIRST Email me so I can authroize you to do so; And as long as the original archive is not tampered with or edited and this README file is included in the archive.
