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

After many and many tries, and many sleepless nights, this is, finally, 
my first 'official' release for the Online DooM community.

I was trying to make maps with ambience, and a game flow different from the classic
maps that people always plays online. If you see the maps, you will see that each map
was designed for be played different.

I never liked the pistol, so the default weapon here is mostly the shotgun.



This wad, shinffa.wad, makes obsolete all the following releases:
shinnobiffacl   shinobi-ffa-cl   shinobi-ffa-cl_rX   shinobi-ffa-cl   shinobidmcl   shinffa-betaX

If you happen to have any of these wads in your hard drive, you may delete them safely, as they are 
deprecated.
