UAC Ultra

UAC Ultra is a WAD originally released on March 28, 2010 by Jamie Bainbridge (Super Jamie) and Jon Vail (40oz) which requires a Boom-compatible source port. It makes exclusive use of a set of custom textures created by Vail, and features two new monsters. It consists of 11 levels, and an inescapable "credits" level which prevents the player from progressing into the standard Doom II level set.

UAC Ultra won a Doomworld Cacoward in 2010.

-The ancient Martian civilization was a civilization depicted in Doom 3 which was discovered by the UAC beginning in the year 2115 with the discovery of subterranean ruins at Site 1, Site 2, and Site 3 during construction of the company's first Martian underground bases. Implied to be millions if not billions of years old, these ruins contained important cultural records in the form of stone tablets as well as technological artifacts.
