Description             : Ragnarok: The final fight between Good 
                          and Evil in the Nordic mythology
                          (didn't want to write a long story...).

                          I wanted to create some special architecture
                          with this level - I really hate those WOLF3D
                          like level "designs" (and ROTT, too...).
                          But this is my very first level, so have mercy!
                          Please send me an E-mail for any comments to this
                          WAD.

                          The level works with DOOM ][ only, but the sound
                          extension "RAGNASND.WAD" should run under DOOM I,
                          too.
                          This level was specially created for use with
                          my sound WAD "RAGNASND.WAD" (including some 
                          industrial and ritual sound). However, this one is
                          separately available (ragnasnd.zip), for those
                          with slower connections. But downloading it
                          is strongly recommended!

                          For maximum effect, don't use any cheats, especially
                          the light cheat (and too much gamma correction
                          as well).

Thanx to                : * Sonja - for being so patient with my DOOMania!
                          * The creators of DeeP, the first (IMO)
                            *useable* Editor...

Time to build           : Far too much - the years stumble away...
Known Bugs              : NADA!
                          I worked hard to avoid these texture misalignments -
                          I hate them if I see them in
                          bad designed (especially DM) levels...
                          I had to fix the "no more visplanes" error in 
                          the starting room, which is probably a limitation
                          of the DOOM engine (2 many 2 sided linedefs?).

* Where to get this WAD *

Where did *you* get it???


* Hints *
(For those lucky folks who read these *.txt files...)

Some important items are hidden in secret areas; but *no* BFG! (except DM - 
but *very* hard to get...) - and no keycards, to be fair.
All secrets are indicated somehow - so watch out!
Be *very* careful in the starting room (for silence is golden...)
But What Ends When The Symbols Shatter...
