Title: Abalyon 7: Resurrection! 2-8-98 V-E-R-T-I-G-O !!!!!!! Author: Cameron "Stryker" Fultz Seattle (Bothell), WA Editors Used: Descent Mission Builder 2.6, Paint Shop Pro 3.0, Description: VERTIGO bots! AND JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT THEY WERE DONE! One a remote planet the Vertigo virus still thrives. An ancient ship of unknown origin was discovered by a PTMC recon patrol. Concerned they called you in to see if there is an "alien" infestation. They may never know how right they are! How to build a Vertigo Level: Start with modifiying one - put all the Vertigo bots you want to use into one cube - do it with this level if you wish. Save as "your new file *.hog") Get rid of the rest of the cubes since they are mine. Now build your level. You'll notice that all the Vertigo bots are "illegal objects" - that's OK. Now when you want to play the level and see the Vertigo bots, you need to modify your .hog file. I use the HAMM 1.12. Extract the aba6.ham file from my aba6.hog. add the aba6.ham file to your hog. Rename the aba6.ham file to your hog file name. Then go into a text editor and modify your mission file *.ms2. You must add "z" as the first letter of the first line (zname = ****) then you must add at the bottom without spaces between words name=**** (**** is the name of your ham file - but don't add the ".ham" part) - look at the aba4.ms2 or aba6.ms2 file for the example. Now when you play, you will have a Vertigo level - however, if you modify the level you must repeat this process to see the Vertigo bots again. I'm sure it will be fixed some day so that we can all use Vertigo bots a little easier. DMB 2.6 lets you start a Vertigo level which include one more robot that the ham file I'm using and a different boss. But the BIG drawback is that you have to play Descent2:Vertigo for a few seconds, close it and then start the vertigo level. I made a Dr. Moreau Level this way called "Dr. Moreau's Vertigo Lab" but a few months ago I revised it to include the ham file so that you don't have to go through the trouble of playing one level to play another. I also added a whole new section that you'll enjoy! Look for all the other levels in the Abalyon and Dr. Moreau Series. They are linked together. ---Level Info--- Single Player: yes CO-OP: yes FLAG: yes ANARCHY & ROBO: yes Bugs: None ---Construction Info--- Build Time: Basically 60 hrs Extra Credit: My wife and four kids who have put up with my obsession. ---Other--- You may distribute this level as long as every thing is INTACT and UNMODIFIED.
