Description : This map was included in my huge project
'TGRDM3'(Morgenstern) that originally started
back in 2007, but I finally decided to kill the
project on the 26 October 2014. The development
time was going to take several more years to
complete, and making maps that uses 3D Objects -
heavily - on a 2.5 game engine is overly
complicated along with its limitations.
Abandoned Misery was originally half-way designed
back in 2010, but later completely redesigned in
2013 (which is the version released). I honestly
believe that this is the first - real successful
Deathmatch map I have ever created in my entire
history of Doom modding. Call me bias, but I
have rejected approximately 37 maps that I have
created for the TGRDM3 project, but this map is
one of the survivors in the new stock set. I
hope others enjoy this map and possibly use it
for other projects.
Revision Update (31 December. 2014):
This is a revision update from the last known release.
Updates:
Added Fog using resources within the Realm667 site.
Added Sector Fog
Added Rain using resources within the Realm667 site.
Added splashes using Enjay's "Splashes" resource mod file.
Added one ogg music file from 'Shane Strife'. (see \Documents\Credits.txt for more details)
General map fixes and updates
For example; the glass ceilings where not set properly with the currently used sky.
Some instant death sectors where not set properly.
Texture alignment
Performance Notes:
This map might be rather resource and rendering
intensive on various systems abroad. Here is a
few Console Variables that could help a bit by
disabling some special features based on the
GZDoom engine:
Line Mirrors --> R_DrawMirrors
Sector Reflections --> GL_Plane_Reflection
Dynamic Lights --> GL_Lights
Additional Credits to : Affliction - Created a python script which helped
to identify duplicated images.

Mazter - Assisted and shared a tool that
compresses images using 'Image Catalyst'
Qent - Helping me with testing on the Zandronum
engine.
Tribeam - For being Tribeam
Edward850 - Helped me fix a really odd bug in the
map, and ideas on presentation.
Eruanna - Giving me a forum section from the DRD Team
site for the TGRDM3 project.
project.
MaxED - Making Doom Builder 2 even better with
GZDoom Builder editor. If it wasn't for GZDoom
Builder, editing would feel like a horror'ish
nightmare with managing over 600 3D Objects in
one map and having to deal with (G)ZDoom specific
features at the same time.
CodeImp - Making Doom Builder 2 and what started
it all (at least for me) Doom Builder.
Graf Zahl - Continuing work on the GZDoom engine.
Zandronum Dev. Team - Continuing work on making
SkullTag better and with a new vision.
DeathZ0r - Made a tutorial back in 2004 in
regards to making Deathmatch maps; a copy of the
tutorial can be found in the provided link:

Enjay - Updated and yet made publicly available for everyone
to use, Splashes.

Tormentor667 (and Realm667 contributors) - Created
and made publicly available for everyone to use,

Shane Strife - Created and made publicly available for
everyone to use, Doom 2 'High Definition' (NOT REMIXED) music.

ID Software - Do I need to add a description for
the obvious? ;)
And all the authors of the textures I used for
making this map; though, since I had a huge
texture database, I placed all the documentation
in the /documents/ section within the .pk3 archive.
Please view that directory for more information.

* Play Information *
Game : Doom 2
Map # : MAP01
Single Player : Player starts only
Cooperative 2-4 Player : No
Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Designed for
Other game styles : None
Difficulty Settings : Not implemented
* Construction *
Base : New from scratch
Editor(s) used : GZDoom Builder, Notepad++, and various other
tools
Known Bugs : One of the mirrors does produce a HOM due to not
having a larger rendering void, this effect
probably wont be easily noticeable.
If using the Zandronum engine, there is going to
be a lot of rendering issues and UDMF conflicts:
Geometry intermittently vanishes, textures are
not scaled, textures are misaligned, and the old
GZDoom OpenGL engine that Zandronum uses - will
lag intensively on a lot of areas on this map.
Hopefully later versions of Zandronum will
correct this [current Zandronum Official Build as
of today: 1.3]
In addition, Zandronum does not yet support ZMAPINFO.
the next release should meet the bare minimum support.
May Not Run With... : ZDoom's software rendering engine, this is due to
the sloped 3D Objects. But, this is only a
visual issue, the map will still work as expected
regardless.
