Misc. Author Info : Hurf.
Description : This add-on enhances Doom, Doom 2 and Final Doom,
evolving various features of it into something
more interactive and visually interesting, via
features from the games it inspired, without
altering the core gameplay too much.
For details, see the bottom of this file.

===========================================================================
* Actual Enhancements *
- Quake-style gibbing.
- Nashgore blood and Corwin's splash mod.
- Alternate death sequences for the Zombieman, Shotgunner, Imp, Marine and
Pinky that are sometimes played instead of the normal one, for variety.
- Player now has an actual "standing still" frame, instead of balancing on
one foot.
- Footsteps and body thud sounds, both for players and monsters.
- Most of the props can be broken, gibbed or otherwise affected.
- Sound enhancements - Imp Pain, Caco Pain, Lost Soul Pain, Chainguns and
some monster weapons now have their own sounds instead of reusing the
same old one.
- Projectiles use teleporter lines and make sounds as they whiz past you.
- Some little slightly-hidden things that will put a smile on your face.
I also included a optional extra wad, Doom Enhanced Items, which should be
loaded after doomenh.wad. It adds on...
- Shell casings.
- Unique pickup/raise sounds for all weapons and items.
- Invuln uses the Heretic effect instead of the nauseatingly ugly Doom one.
- Fist is silent.

Single Player : Designed for
Cooperative : Designed for
Deathmatch : Designed for
Other game styles : Not recommended for Skulltag - I may make a

Will never work with Zdaemon ever ever ever
because they're too stubborn to upgrade from
a, what, eight year old version of Zdoom?
Difficulty Settings : Not applicable.
* Construction *
Base : From scratch.
Build Time : Why is this field even HERE?
Editor(s) used : XWE, Goldwave, PSP8, Notepad.
Known Bugs : - May flatten your framerate in rare
circumstances. You're an adult and can adjust
your settings as neccesary, no?
- May cause lag in multiplayer. This is out of my
control, sorry.
- WILL cause havoc with DEHACKED stuff that alters
the monsters. Since DEHACKED is obsolete in
ZDoom this is about as concerning as the grass
being green. However, this might ruin your day
if you want to play older wads like Decade, but
I'm sure you'll live.
May Not Run With... : Source ports not based off Zdoom 2.1.8 or later.
