* Story *

Story is simple : You are a scienist called Gordon Freeman, following
a convey with some high-tech weapons to a secret base "Black Mesa Research
Facility". But at middle of way, your convey got ambuse by a group of revolutionist.
The way of return is blocked, You must fight a way for your survival....

* Comments *

"Road of Destiny" is four part single player map.  this is my first
half-life map so I really hope you can enjoy this, and give me some
advice, Please let me know. :) First rod01.bsp is a huge outside map
with many deatil suff. I know, it will eat many r_speed,
maybe a little slow. but I already control it at a acceptable range. 
At this last version(3/23), I modified some placement of monsters, weapons and
remove some health kits, let gameflow become more challenge, and more realistic.
Please update it.

* Known Bug*

I had notice some texture errors at rod01.bsp, but please forgive me not to correct them,
because vis this bsp at my machine(AMD K6-400) must cost 82 hours, it was like hell!!
If anyone have a really fast machine and want help to vis this bsp again, I will like to 
correct it, too. Please contact me. :)
Some player tell me there have other errors at other bsp, at this last version(3/23), I
already correct them all. If still any bugs, please contact me.


=======================================================

* Installation *

Extract 4 bsp files  to Half-Life\valve\maps, and extract unit4*.* files
to Half-Life\valve\gfx\env (you must to creat it by yourself.) Run the
game from a shortcut on your desktop (or wherever) that has the following
command line:

C:\Half-Life\hl.exe -console +map rod01

If C:\SIERRA\Half-Life\ is not the path to your hl.exe file you
will have to make changes accordingly. You can also leave off the
'+map rod01' command but you will have to type map Inf at the
console.The skill is set at 2, but you can edit it if you want more\less of a challenge.
Or....start Half-Life with the -console command and type map revenge1 to start the game.

* Hint *

ROD01.BSP:
	Dependent the peroformence of guards, If they die too soon, you maybe fall into a difficult
	situation. But, remember you are with a convey with some "high-tech weapon"? Go to find some 
	weapons to kick their ass.

ROD02.BSP:
	Leaking Gas is hot and dangerous. find other way to go and close the gas first.


ROD03.BSP:
	Don't waste your ammo at alien slaves, turrets are your cruel friends.


ROD04.BSP:
	What a big guy!! Try relex and watch a action movie show!! 


ROD05.BSP:
	Don't worry about it. Just a short end.
