Description              :                                  "Wyvern Heights"
                                   
                                  This well designed level has quite a few areas to discover, it takes
                                  me (the author) about 18 minutes to complete the entire level with
                                  100% kills and all secrets found in skill 4 mode.

                                    Please note that you must be alert in locatating certain switches
                                  and doors that might not look like the ones you're used to - this is
                                   by design for reasons of creativity. Different, but well done.
                                                              
                                    The texture alignment is outstanding (nice wall switches) and to
                                  top it off, there are a ton of new graphics contained in this file...
                                   
                                   Don't be surprised if you discover some familiar bitmaps along
                                   the way...There are some textures in this file from "Rise of the
                                   Triad" by Apogee Software, as well as Doom 1 and 2 from id 
                                   Software.
                                   I thought it would be wonderful to see all my favorite textures in
                                   one level...well, here it is and I'm sure you'll agree that they all
                                   look great together.

                                   I would recommend at least a 486DX2/66 with 8 Megs of RAM to
                                   enjoy the level fully. This is the system I used to write Wyvern
                                   Heights - it runs great on my computer, no slowing down (thanks
                                   again RMB!). I wish every author would use it...

                                     Oh, one more thing...Please, no codes! There is ample ammo
                                   and if you're semi-experienced at Heretic then it will be a good
                                   WAD for you to practice your combat stategies...just don't cheat.

                            To play this file with your registered Heretic, simply unzip the Hwyvern.zip
                             into your Heretic directory, then go to that DIR. and type the letters (in small
                             case print):
                                                                                                 
                                                                   C:HERETIC>hwh

                                Then hit Enter and you're off to Wyvern Heights in Skill 4. If that's too hard
                              for you then you can simply manually type the line below and select your
                              own difficulty setting.

                                                      C:HERETIC>heretic -file hwh.wad

Cooperative 2-4 Player  : Yes - Please feel free to enjoy the sights after your battles' end.
Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Yes - Of course, the Modem Minions aren't forgotten.
Difficulty Settings         : Yes - I highly advise you to use skill 4, though...lots of action.

Base                    : New level from scratch (with my bare hands!). This file took the better
                              part of two weeks to complete. Again, the texture alignment took the
                              longest time (it has to be right!).

Editor(s) used       : DeeP/HeeP - Excellent Heretic/Doom editors - I have conquered the beast!
                              WinTex/DeuTex - Excellent WAD compiler. The best freeware $ can buy!

                                PaintShop v.3 - Great shareware graphics program. Heretic perfect.


Known Bugs         : Absolutely, positively NO problems with this file. W.H. checks out 100%
                             in the HeeP checks (try that some time for kicks).
