	- Comments -

  In this map I wanted to create a "real world" feel. Something I think
is missing in most of the Q2 maps out there today, with the exception of
AQ2 maps. Bear in mind, because of the level of detail the poly counts are
rather high. I would not recommend this map for slower machines. I've made
extensive use of the Kingpin texture set for that "warm-n-fuzzy" feel as ya
get a rocket up yer butt. 

	- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS -

  Extract the whole mess to x:\ where "x" is the drive you have Quake2
installed. In most cases this, this would be your "C" drive. Don't worry,
it'll unzip all the files to their proper locations. When you're done and
return to your desktop, you'll notice the file holo.zip sitting there. That
is the sky for the map. If you already have this sky installed, then just
delete that file and get onto fraggin'. Otherwise, unzip the file into the
x:\Quake2\baseq2\env directory. Again, "x" is the same drive letter where
you have your Quake2 installed. If you want, you could delete the .bmp
files as they are for use in Half-Life.
