* LEVEL DESCRIPTION *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Uhmm... lets try to think up a good storyline.

Err....

Ummm...

Well, ETC originally started out meaning 'Earthquake Test Centre', but that kind means nothing now...

Ahhh...

Look, just go play it, OK?

--

BTW, there are a lot of things I dont like about this release. I only released it since I REALLY WANT to get a decent SP map out. I've been mapping for some time, and had no major releases, this is the first.

And for those of you wondering, "Why not make this better if you dont like it?", the answer is because I want to get it out of the way so I can work on what could be ETC2. Look out ;)

Also, fat barney is in this, but it ain't great. I wanted to replace the normal barney, so a fat model would walk around instead... unfortunately, MilkShape3D's decompile feature still has a few bugs in it (or mabe limitations it cant avoid), which means data from the original .qcs are missing. To get my fat barney to walk would require me getting the ProSDK...

Anyway, play ETC, if you like it, that's great! My job is done! If you don't... then err... look out for a sequel which will be better ;)

NOTE: You need at least Half-Life 1.0.0.9 to run ETC.

NEW SOUNDS              : Yes
CD TRACK #              : Just make sure you have the HL CD in the drive when

			  a different CD once the game has started) the level 
			  makes use of the cd tracks quite frequently... Sorry 
			  to those who pirated the game, but... GO BUY THE DAMN 
			  GAME LEGALLY! Only that way do you get the kicking 
			  music.

			  -cough- worthy cause, I'd be very welcome! You'll get 
			  to play-test (not a chore, believe me ;) my next 
			  release before anyone else... and any releases after 
			  that.

			  If anyone would be so amazingly kind, I'd be very very 
   			  very very grateful. And I mean it.
