And do you realise that none of those levels is *any* use *at* *all*,
without the commercial game data?
The code simply won't load levels, as it stands, unless it has loaded
the game data. Even if that protection feature was disabled (trivial,
certainly) it still wouldn't work: all such free levels require some
stuff from the commercial data, the weapons, the models, the textures,
etc.
