Hi Mike

Makes pleasure to reread.

I think to know this level, but I don't remember the title anymore.
I am not on, D2 or D3. Are you certain that that is D2?
Currently, I replay some big D2 missions, if I find, I warn you.

Cordially.

Jacques

PS : My English is always as bad

Thanks, thought I did that a few months ago, but just checked to make
sure and I guess it was my imagination!

I'll try it.

I can't help you with the name of this level (sorry), but, if you like
really large levels, you might want to check out an old D1 level
of mine, called The Cycloid.  It's got an enormous "open" area,
and... well, if I do say, I think it's a rather rewarding challenge
(particularly if you like "white knuckle" endings <g>).

Thanks Jeff, downloaded it and will have to reload D1 to play it
sometime.

Cool.  If/when you do (I actually did start to convert it to D2, but...
don't remember what happened there... maybe it just wasn't right
without some of the same textures, or something)... yeah, where
was I... oh yeah, if/when you do get around to it, drop me a line
and lemme know how you liked it (pay no attentin to the email addy
in the archive text file, as it's *long* invalid).  Folks who've played it
were quite surprised.
