Showdown is basically a large part of my life I will never get back! LOL! Besides that Showdown is an add-on for the game No One Lives Forever. This all started as a little hobby on the side. I have been editing game levels for years and started on Showdown only to learn a new game level editing software, Nolf's Dedit. I was immediately hooked and Showdown began to grow and grow and grow and….. well you get the picture.

Q: How do I install SHOWDOWN?
A: It's really very simple. All you need to do is place the SHOWDOWN.rez file into your No One Lives Forever/Custom folder. If you do not have a custom folder within your main No One Lives Forever folder simply create one. Then start up NOLF. From the launcher select Cusom load the rez by moving it from the left pane to the right and also check always load rez. Then simply back out and launch the game and hopefully you'll have a great time playing!
Q: I really like a certain mission ... would you convert it to multi-player ?
A: If there seemed to be a demand or interest in a certain map as multi-player I might would consider it. I'll admit the idea interests me but I don't know if it would be worth the time. Regardless if you have such a request email me at dodsond@surry.net and I'll see what I can do.
Q: What are the requirements to install Showdown?
A: Those are the same as for Nolf, and of course Nolf should be installed for you to play Showdown. Please note however that on the slower machines, some missions may be more jerked than the ones provided with the game - these where designed to run very smooth.
Showdown is compatible with all released versions of Nolf, from version 1.00 to version 1.04, in English, Spanish, French, and German. The full game is required, Showdown can't work with just the demo versions of Nolf.
If you have a Spanish, French, or German copy of Nolf which you upgraded to version 1.04, you will probably be pleased to know that Showdown can run it with all the game's dialogs in the original language (rather than in English).
Q: How much space does Showdown take?
A: Once installed, Showdown take about 95 MB (less if your Nolf Custom folder is a compressed folder).
Q: Strangely, some things which worked in Showdown seems to have ceased to work. How can I fix that?
A: Make sure you have not added in the launcher's advanced options a custom file that alters the game. You may check that by starting Showdown's launcher, clicking "Advanced", "Customize", making sure that the "Always load these files" option is unchecked and launching the game to see if that solves the problem.
Otherwise, the best way to repair Showdown is also the simplest: just re-install it!
Q: Why is this page looking weird?
A: This page was designed to be looked at with a recent version of Internet Explorer. If you are using another browser that does not support the OpenType font technology, the texts will appear with basic fonts instead of the ones it was designed for. In addition, it seems at the date of this writing that the latest release of Navigator (aka Mozilla) have a tendency to place various elements incorrectly.

Q: What is a map? A skin? A mod? A mission?
A: A map is a terrain in the game. Most of the new maps are for multiplayer games, either in DeathMatch mode or in H.A.R.M. vs UNITY mode.
A skin is new look for a character of the game. It may include new clothes as well as new haircut and even new skin.
A mod is a new element of the game, as a new skin or a new map, but it can also be something that changes the game program (to add a new kind of network game for instance) or some of its definitions (to change the properties of some weapons, for instance).
A Nolf 1 mission is a new single player game.
You can find all of these for free on Nolf's community site, http://www.nolfgirl.com/.

Showdown is delivered as is, without support. However I'll try to do my best to provide support for it, but on a voluntary base - don't expect a 7/7 24/24 toll free phone line!
Here are the answers to some questions you may have. If none of them allows you to solve your problem and you are still having trouble, thanks for first posting a message in www.NolfGirl.com's forums, and if that still doesn't help, then send an email at dodsond@surry.net for problems regarding the game, or to Deunid@ifrance.com for problems regarding the installer.
- Known bugs
Several people have reported a bug in level six "Land of Evil" that prevents you from completing the mission. At the end of the level the player approaches the outside of the estate. At the entrance of the estate a cutscene triggers which ends the level and begins level seven "Lair of the Beast". Unfortuantely for some, triggering the cutscene does not work correctly (note: user's reported this is rare and when going back to the same spot gameplay operated accordingly). For now there is no patch just be advised to save your game before approaching the estate in cause you encounter this problem. If after reloading the game you are still experiencing the problem contact me and I will get it resolved.
Q: I found a bug in one of your levels what do I do?
A: SHOWDOWN should be virtually error free. It was deeply tested by a hand full of very thorough players. Of course different systems and configurations will work differently. If you do experience what you feel is an error in SHOWDOWN please contact me at dodsond@surry.net ... if the problem is widespread and there are several reports I will release an updated version of SHOWDOWN to correct it.
Q: I'm experiencing a bug in one of your levels that prevents me from advancing in the mission ... now what?
A: If for some reason you have a technical problem that prevents you from being able to play the game, send a description of your problem to dodsond@surry.net. The problem will be corrected ASAP and you will be contacted via email as to the location of the new version. Again I don't see this as a problem (I hope) but just in case ;)
Q: I have noticed something that is infringing my copyrights. What should I do?
A: Email me at dodsond@surry.net with your findings and claims and once verified, the infringing element will be immediately removed.
Q: Can I use some of your resources for my own project ... textures, prefabs, etc. ?
A: It would depend entirely on the request and if your project was of a morally decent nature ... such as ... is there a limit on the number of whore per level etc. If you have such a request, again please direct your inquiries to dodsond@surry.net.
A big thanks goes to NolfGirl.com for supporting the community!
Have fun and be careful, I've heard there were sometimes armed people in those levels... ; )
