BitSpit This is my third completed Descent 2 level. It's another anarchy level. This was inspired by some levels in Luke Scheider's EonX series. Originally, I planned on this level being like a temple, but it come out far from it. Special attention was given to the lighting. I had to go back and forth between DEVIL and DMB2 to get it the way I wanted it. I also had to light a lot of that water manually because neither editor takes into account that water reflects light. I hope you enjoy the way it's lit. I also designed this level with 2 things in mind: support for 8 players and having plenty of room. There are enough weapons in it so that no one will be stuck with level 1 lasers while 2 or 3 other people hoard all the weapons. The rooms are also on the large side to give you room to move. NOTE BEFORE PLAYING: There is a spheroid room with spikes in the level. I attempted to keep the frame rates as high as possible by using a radiating method to build it. In other words, there are some pie-shaped "cubes" in it. I got a frame rate around 8.5 FPS when firing the helix and flying like a mad man with a poorly calibrated joystick. This is on a Pentium 100 without 3D accelleration in 320x200. This is just a warning for those using really low-end machines. SPECIAL THANKS TO...
