Misc. Author Info       : Composing music for DOOM since early 1994. Member of
                          Team SUXX <LOL>, Team Eternal, and TeamTNT. Former
                          Assistant Sysop in the long-since gone Action Games
                          Forum on CompuServe (CIS: GO ACTION). Former
                          Associate Sysop in the long-since gone Gamers Forum
                          on CompuServe (CIS: GO GAMERS). Music, PC game, and
                          DOOM FANATIC!

Description             : A new original 360° nighttime sky that ROCKS for all
                          of id Software's games, and for Team Eternal's
                          "Eternal DOOM III". I figured that most "id-holics"
                          <G> have most (if not all) of id Software's games, so
                          I packaged them all in one ZIP file (rather than
                          separately). Also included as a bonus is one for
                          Rogue Entertainment's "Strife: Quest for the Sigil",
                          as well as the original "Space2.gif" night sky image
                          (makes for some great WinDoZe wallpaper!).

How to run these WADs   : for "The Ultimate DOOM":
                          DOOM -FILE NITESKY1.WAD

                          for "DOOM 2: Hell On Earth":
                          DOOM2 -FILE NITESKY2.WAD

                          for "Eternal DOOM III" (with the "Eternal Shell"):
                          Copy NITESKY3.WAD to your \ETERNAL\DATA directory,
                          the "Eternal Shell" will load the WAD automatically.

                          for "Eternal DOOM III" (without the "Eternal Shell"):
                          DOOM2 -FILE ETERNAL.WAD NITESKY3.WAD

                          for "Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders":
                          HERETIC -FILE NITESKYH.WAD

                          for "Hexen: Deatkings of the Dark Citadel":
                          HEXEN -FILE HEXDD.WAD NITESKYK.WAD

                          for "Final DOOM: The Plutonia Experiment":
                          DOOM2 -FILE NITESKYP.WAD

                          for "Strife: Quest for the Sigil"
                          STRIFE1 -FILE NITESKYS.WAD

                          for "Final DOOM: TNT - Evilution":
                          DOOM2 -FILE NITESKYT.WAD

                          for "Hexen: Beyond Heretic":
                          HEXEN -FILE NITESKYX.WAD

Additional Greets to    : All the people of Team Eternal and TeamTNT, a really
                          super bunch of folks -:), and of course, id Software,
                          the maker of one of the greatest PC games in history!

* Construction *

Base                    : New nighttime sky graphics from scratch, and a HIGHLY
                          modified "SKYFOG2" graphic (for "Hexen: Beyond
                          Heretic", and "Hexen: Deathkings of the Dark
                          Citadel").

Build Time              : Including the original "Space2.gif" night sky image
                          and the "SKYFOG2" editing, about six days.

Editors used            : Paint Shop Pro 3.12, Paint Shop Pro 6.02, NeoPaint
                          3.2d, NewWadTool 1.3, NewWadTool 1.4b1, WinTex 4.3,

                          Heretic", and "Hexen: Deathkings of the Dark
                          Citadel"), and the palette resources just right -:)
