It is acceptable to distribute this map ONLY over the Internet and BBS systems for free and ONLY if this ENTIRE accompanying textfile accompanies it. By installing, decompressing, playing, and/or using this MAP/BSP, you acknowledge and accept ALL restrictions and requirements as listed in this accompanying textfile in addition to other legal regulations under federal and state law.

Failure to follow the provisions of this textfile in reference to ownership rights, use, and distribution of this MAP/BSP level may result in litigation and/or other penalties. Comments as to the design and construction of this MAP/BSP are welcome, although I make no claims as to when, or if, you will receive a reply. Future re-releases and/or fixed versions, or updates, to this MAP/BSP may be released (provided I deem them necessary); they will become available on Walnut Creek's FTP site ('ftp.cdrom.com') and will follow this "naming convention": HALLOW??.ZIP, whereas "??" represents a Build Version Number--in all cases a higher Build Version Number is a more recent release. Get the biggest number available. Should the Build Version Number exceed two digits (i.e.: greater than 99), the incremental ordinance shall follow a hexadecimal incrementation pattern (i.e.: the decimal "255" would be replaced with "FF"). When on the Net, I stay at the Quake Command's high-tech, ultra-plush, space-needle-like repository of luxurious add-ons and patches. You should too!
