Description : New Quake2 Mod

	Welcome to BraZen.

See included HTML for more indepth descriptions.

Quick run down is:

DO NOT MODIFY KEYS USING QUAKE 2 SETUP.
Just edit the "autoexec.cfg".

Then there is this:
        When you get shot, you will get wounded.  Head wounds concus,
        body wounds just hurt and leg wounds will slow you down.

        Explosive weapons also cause concussion every time. Concussion
        will wears off more quickly if you remain still.

        To pickup up items, hold down the INS key (KP_INS) with your
        little finger, and walk over them.  If moving fast, you must
        face the item.  If slow or stopped, just hold it down.

        To heal, pick up health to increase your healing rate and
        get a little bit of health (A little bit!).

        To reload, just click one extra time when out of bullets.
        To reload manually, just hit END.  If you reload manually,
        you will leave behind ammo in the clip.

        To get medikits, pick them up when on max_health (Usually 100).

        Some weapons have a second fire mode.  Click MOUSE2 (+use) to shoot
        in this way.

        You cannot fire underwater with bullet/pellet weapons.

        To play CTF, add use this command line:
                quake2 +set game brazen +set deathmatch 1 +set ctf 1
	You will also need the CTF pak0.pak

================================================================

* Construction *

Base                    : Quake2 DLL 3.14 Source
Editor(s) used          : LCC, PSP, Edit, Sound Forge 3.0, ModLer 0.8.
Known Bugs              : Biggest and baddest bug would have to be:
					  NO DEDICATED SEVER!

			No dedicated server - Hows that for a bug.
                             Everytime i've tried to run one, then try
                             to go to a map, the damn thing crashes me
                             out with the message:
                             "Error getting # of console events".
                             Any ideas then please contact me.  

                        Lift Bug - Sometime you will be unable to travel
                             lifts, simply falling through them.
                             It doesn't happen often, but...
                             Used to be worse lift bugs, but I ad-libbed
                             and fixed them.

                        Non-pickupable items - Just when I thought I had
                             fixed it, it comes back! Seems to be rare now.  

                        Incorrect death messages - Should be fixed.
                             Sometimes says you bled to death when in
                             fact you should have been shot dead, blown up
                             or what ever. Listed as bug because it is
                             annoying and keeps coming back.  

Build Time              : It Took Me Ages So...
Source Included		: Not yet.

* Install Instructions and usage *

Server:
        UNZIP, RUN "+set game brazen +set dedicated 1"
         AND COMPLAIN WHEN IT CRASHES (IF IT DOES??)

Client:
        UNZIP IT. Run usiing +set game brazen

        Set up your keys MANUALLY!
        If you use the set up in Quake2 you are likely to stuff the config
        up.  Remember, +use = second attack button.
