**All levels available at ftp.cdrom.com except when noted (#). If you would
like a copy of one of these levels, email me and I'll send it to you. Be
warned tho, these are early projects that really aren't that great and I
only have them up to show a chronology of my work to date
Note 1: This level is an improved version of the level "Proem." There were several
architectural designs that I changed as well as a few other things that
warranted a second release.
Note 2: This is release version 1.1 of Idiodisruptia. This level had a *major* facelift
done over the course of about 4 to 5 days that greatly enhanced the overall
asthetics of the level.
Projects in the works:
=========================================
-several levels for the upcoming Quake's World
Total Conversion (http://members.aol.com/temporalq/)
-TechnoDisparity Partial DM Conversion
(http://members.aol.com/levelmaker/)
In my spare time I work for the US Navy as
an Avionics Technician 1st Class with heavy
amounts of computer and electronic experience
(I'm getting out after 11 years
in November, so I'm pouring on the 'Find a
Job' bits when I can ;) )
Description : This level is currently being reworked for use in the Quake's World
Total Conversion project, located at http://members.aol.com/temporalq/
...This level, along with Staging Point (sp.bsp) are the "regular"
quake varieties of the levels that
I plan on using in the TC...I feel that these levels will play just
fine as standard quake levels, and I plan on expanding them out for
use in the Quake's World TC....
As far as a description of the level itself, this level is a fairly
good sized base type level that'll keep you busy for most of the game.
You start out in a subway type vehicle and then start duking it out :)
When you get to the end, you'll notice that you didn't get all of the
monsters. This is due in part to a bug in the id code with regards to
fish. For some reason, it counts them twice in the total number of
monsters, but only once when you kill them...
Add’tl Credits to : *The guys at id for creating such
incredibly expansive games such as
Quake
*Worldcraft, for such an awesome
editor
*Eternity Game Design - being apart of this
group has inspired my creativity in so many
ways that I can't pull myself away from the
computer ;)
*And most of all, my wife, for
putting up with my very annoying
habit of saying "In a minute..."

one of those levels that turn out really nice :)

So you've read down this far, eh? Well, alright, I'll tell you what Ohzarm is....
If you've taken French, then you should recognize the sounds of the two words I used -
Aux Armes...I just used the phonetic spelling....and for all of you who didn't take French
and want to know what it means, it simply means, "To Arms."
