Description:  This full set contains three levels which start at the house sitting in
	    the middle of no where.  Your goal is simply eliminate the threat completely
	    in order to escape through the pit in the garage.  The pit would become
            accessible once all the baddies are eliminated.  The level would end
	    once entering the pit---it is designated to go to the next level which take
            place near the back alley from the entrance of the skyscraper.  Your first 
	    goal is to make it inside the skyscraper carefully and find the elevator.
	    Once inside the elevator, the level changes to the final escape.  Your goal
            here is to try to find the missing technician who holds the security key for 
            the top floor access.  A ship is awaiting for you on the top roof.  Your
            final goal is to reach it in order to escape from the demons' stronghold.
	    Good Luck!

Cooperative mode was always on my mind for this map set since the day I created the 
first version for Quake 2.  Therefore, I like to dedicated this work for all the 
mod makers for cooperative, specifically for Doom 3, Last Man Standing (of course),
Mars City Security, and Open Coop.  Thank you all for your hard work and dedications.

* What is included *

New levels:  3 (d32sky1, d32sky2, d32sky3)
Sounds:  No
Graphics:  Yes 
Models:  No
Scripts:  No

* How to launch *

Unzip the mcs_skyscraper2_1.pk4 file into your doom3\mcs folder.  Host creates a dedicated
cooperative server under MCS by choosing any other sample map included in the MCS. Once the
dedicated server is up and running, go under console and type "si_map d32sky1" (without
quotes) and press enter.  Then type "serverMapRestart" (again, without quotes) and press 
enter.

Clients can now join the game.

***IMPORTANT***

There is an issue upon entering map "d32sky3" whereas the frame rates go extremely high.
If this happens, the Clients need to disconnect the server and reconnect again while 
within the game.  This apparently clears it up for some reason.  My apology that I do not
know what causes this but it seems to be one work-around with it.  The other option is that
it may help by turning off some graphic settings (options-system-advanced options):  HDR, 
Vignetting, Film Grain, Depth of Field, and Motion Blur set to "Off".
