This patch will replace the chainsaw in Id Software's Doom ][ with the 
lightning gauntlet (electric gloves) from Heretic, by the same company.  I put 
a fair amount of time into this patch and I hope you like it as much I do.

What you should get in this file:

WGNTA0.GIF      =Graphic file
GAUNB0.GIF      =Graphic file
GAUND0.GIF      =Another graphic file
GAUNF0.GIF      =That's right! Yet another graphic file!
GAUNTLET.TXT    =The file you're reading right now
GAUNTLET.BAT    =The batch file that installs/removes/plays the patch
GAUNTLET.WAD    =The wad file with the sounds for the lightning gauntlet
DMGRAPH.EXE     =Dmgraph v1.1-a creation of Bill Neisius

To install the gauntlet:

-Make a directory under DOOM2 (or wherever Doom 2 is 
 located) called "GAUNTLET".
-Put all the graphics files (*.gif) from this .zip file into the "GAUNTLET" 
 directory you just made.
-Put the rest of the files from the .zip into the directory where you run Doom
 2 from.
-Run the gauntlet batch file (gauntlet.bat)--it'll do the rest.  The batch file
 will prompt you with choices before installing, and it will also remove the
 gauntlet if you so choose (heaven forbid!)

Most of the credit for this patch goes to GFXArtisan.  His Laser Doom2
 patch provided me with the idea and understanding of the whole process (you 
 might want to d/l it and check it out--it's pretty cool; it can be found in 
 AOL's software library). 
	Thanks a lot for tryin' this thing out.  Feel free to e-mail me with
