Description:

You are sent to Paris. Mission: find the way out! Your first two
missions will allow you to gain ammos and weapons. The third 
mission will be way tougher though, try not to get lost!!! :)
Includes new sounds, a few textures, new music tracks (made to
play best with a GUS or an AWE32).

The first two levels are not that large, but take your time, and
make sure you get as many weapons as possible. These are great for
DeathMatch too. I hope you'll enjoy them!

WARNING: level 3 is Biiiiiiiiiiiiig!

Very special thanks to the wonderful crew that helped me get
Lost to where it now is, by giving me very convincing arguments on how
to improve the level. Namely:

Olivier.Langlois@Electron.Fr, Emmanuel.Viollet@Electron.Fr, and all the
other helpful people I cannot think of right now. Thank you guys. 

I hope our next Episode will rock! (of this I am almost sure, you're
so talented! Hint, hint: will be based on Robert Jordan's "The Wheel
of Time series". Have ideas, wanna help? BTW We're still looking for
some graphicians and beta-testers. If you wanna help, drop me a note,
I'd be so happy.)

And of course, nothing would have been possible without the 
devotion of scores of people like those at iD, the authors of
Deu, BSP, MIDI2MUS, MUS2PWAD, ... Sicere congratulations to all
of them.

My deepest thoughts to those MIDI composers that made the MIDI
files I used as a base for the music, and to Jean-Michel Jarre,
whose albums I recommend to you all!!! You should find an unmodified
version of them included in this package.
