* Play Information *

Level #                 : This is v1.1 effecting MAP01 thru MAP03.
                          If you have v1.0 for some reason, get rid
                          of it, it is unplayable.

                          This PWAD should run on DOOM ][ versions
                          1.2 thru 1.9.

Play notes:               486/66 or better is recommended,
                          these levels are LARGE.
                          
                          To play, unzip this archive in your DOOM ][
                          directory.  You should notice ABATTOIR.WAD
                          and ABATTOIR.TXT in there afterwards.
                          ABATTOIR.WAD should be around 1.4 megs unzipped.
                          Now, enter: DOOM2 -FILE ABATTOIR.WAD

                          this download would have been a guarenteed
                          waste of time.  Might still be, but at least
                          now it won't crash your DOOM engine or leave
                          you stuck with no possible way thru.

                          Also, the folks at ftp.cdrom.com who graciously
                          permitted my to correct the oversights uncovered
