                     Welcome to Stadium III

The theme continues! This time we find ourselves ringside for a taste of
D2 Wrestlemania! Say what?? ok call it a boxing ring, either way, the 
rules are the same... 

There are none!!

Some things to note:

As you enter the ring, fly down towards the center of the canvas. This will
trigger the cage walls to appear.

Once they're on, you and anyone unlucky enough to be caught inside with you 
will find a new meaning to the word INTENSE. There are several ways to 
turn it off but I'll leave that up to you to discover. However you can only
switch it on from inside the ring.

There are several "fly through" triggers so experiment, and rest assured,
there is more than meets the eye.

Also included is a new midi song. I was saving this for the Stadium Pro series,
but what the heck, enjoy! (all eight minutes of it) 

Also, the framerate should be better than either of the previous 2 stadium
levels. I made a concious effort to please everyone, and multiplayer 
testing included CPU's from P90's through P200's.

Coming next will be a three level mission containg pro versions of all 
three stadium levels. New custom textures and improved framerate will be 
my main concern. In any case don't look for these to come out any time soon,
perhaps by Jan/Feb... then again maybe two weeks :)

Special Thanks to Mike "Volition" Kulas, Peter "OverKill" Han and Joe "Karash" Brown
for helping me playtest. (And beating me senseless!!) 

To use Stadium3, copy/extract the files Stadium3.MN2 and Stadium3.HOG into
the MISSIONS subdirectory of your Descent II directory.  "Stadium III" will 
now show up as an option when you start a netgame in Descent II.  Note that
everyone joining in your game also needs to have Stadium3 installed in
his/her MISSIONS directory.
