Description:	Three (3) seperate patches, which replace certain DooM 2 weapons with Lucas Arts' Dark Forces weapons. Also, these are "new" , not the old crappy recycled DF graphics that everyone's used to. PATCH #1 DT-AUTO.WAD, DT-AUTO.DEH Replaces Chaingun and Plasma Gun with AutoCannon. Can be fired in two ways: Bullet, and Plasma. (doesn't even remotely resemble Dark Forces) PATCH #2 DT-BLSTR.WAD DT-BLSTR.DEH Replaces Pistol and Plasma Gun with Blaster pistol and Blaster rifle. I tried, but this one isn't too hot. PATCH #3 DT-MINE.WAD DT-MINE.DEH The best looking of the three. Replaces Fists, Rockets, and Plasma with Fists, Thermal Detonators, and Land Mines. I strongly reccommend you use DoomLegacy for this one if you want to get the maximum effectiveness. Unfortunately, the land mines only work in 'timer' mode. I couldn't get the proximity detonation to work properly.
Credits:	id Software Lucas Arts
Base:	An e-mail request, DF sprites, and a lot of time.
Build time:	A few DAYS (also built dt-ssg in that time)
Editor(s) used:	Ungob, Fme2bmp, deutex, PSP3.0, dehacked.
Bugs:	The laser in dt-blstr is kinda campy, Plus, you may notice that I could have used a lot more DF sprites, but I was having a real tough time with all the shitty DF editors. Now I know how a DooM newbie feels.

Other Releases          : Yes
Misc. Developer Info    : Not a huge DF fan, so don't complain if
                          these patches aren't totally accurate.

Description             : Three (3) seperate patches, which replace
                          certain DooM 2 weapons with Lucas Arts'
                          Dark Forces weapons.
                          Also, these are "new" , not the old crappy
                          recycled DF graphics that everyone's used to.

PATCH #1        : DT-AUTO.WAD, DT-AUTO.DEH
                          Replaces Chaingun and Plasma Gun with AutoCannon.
                          Can be fired in two ways: Bullet, and Plasma.

        PATCH #2        : DT-BLSTR.WAD DT-BLSTR.DEH
                          Replaces Pistol and Plasma Gun with Blaster
                          pistol and Blaster rifle. I tried, but this
                          one isn't too hot.
        
        PATCH #3        : DT-MINE.WAD DT-MINE.DEH
                          The best looking of the three. Replaces Fists,
                          Rockets, and Plasma with Fists, Thermal Detonators,
                          and Land Mines.
                          I strongly reccommend you use DoomLegacy for this 
                          one if you want to get the maximum effectiveness.
                          Unfortunately, the land mines only work in 'timer'
                          mode. I couldn't get the proximity detonation to
                          work properly.

Even though this isn't my cup of tea (i.e. I prefer 'real' weapons over
  fantasy ones), I try to accomodate my fans as much as possible. I hope
  people find these to be better than the existing Dark Forces Weapons
  mods currently available. If not.... well... I don't know what to tell ya.
