***************************************************************************** ARSENAL.DEH 2.1 patch for DEHACKED 2.0 Requires DEHACKED 2.0 and registered DOOM 1.666 Thanks to Greg Lewis for DEHACKED and Id for DOOM! ***************************************************************************** *** Remember to backup your DOOM.EXE before applying the patch! *** Here is version 2.1 of my ARSENAL patch updated for DOOM 1.666 Remember to load ARSENAL.WAD using the '-file' option or or the grenades won't sound right. Included is a quick and dirty batch file that applies the patch and runs doom with the PWAD. It works for me, use at your own risk! This patch modifies the graphics, sound and behavior of the weapons: Punch -> Fast punch Chainsaw -> QuickSaw - 4 times more damage Pistol -> Pocket Blunderbuss - perfect for riot control Shotgun -> Automatic Assult Shotgun Chaingun -> 2x Speed Chaingun like Arnold uses Rocket -> Hand grenades! (whole new strategy!) Plasma -> BFG750 Energy Cannon BFG9000 -> BFR-27 What does BFR stand for? *** Notes *** The BFG750 blast can hurt you, and if a mis-thrown grenade lands near you, don't hang around! Picking up the rocket launcher will give you the ability to throw grenades. (ammo = rockets) Picking up the BFG will actually give you the rocket launcher. (ammo = cells) The Pocket Blunderbuss runs on shells. This means when you start a fresh game, you can't use it until you collect some shells! *** Side effects *** The Cyberdemon now throws grenades! Grenades don't fall to the floor, they just 'hang' there. Sorry! Tell me what you think! Thanks to those who gave suggestions about ARSENAL versions 1.0 & 2.0!
