POVDOOM 2.0 Graphics patch for Doom and Doom2 - Doomworld /idgames database frontend

Title:	POVDOOM 2.0 Graphics patch for Doom and Doom2
Filename:	graphics/povdoom.zip
Size:	1.11 MB
Date:	09/02/96
Author:	Iikka "Fingers" Keränen
Description:	This is sort of half-TC for Doom and Doom2. It has new, ray-traced 3d graphics for all the monsters that exist in Doom, plus a dehacked patch that makes all the other monsters of Doom2. I did this a long time ago (last year), but then I didn't know how to make it work without merging it to main wad... Anyway, this started as plain graphics patch, so it doesn't make any exe hacking on Doom1, and there's no new guns and stuff like that. Also, I didn't make any new sounds. MONSTERS.ZIP (included) contains 640*480 GIF images of all the monsters. Unzip to your Doom directory and install by typing "POVDOOM" on command line.
Credits:	ID software.
Base:	New graphics from scratch :)
Build time:	12 months. During the first of them I made the graphics, but I didn't make them to a wad until today. :)
Editor(s) used:	Moray, POV-ray, DMgraph, Wintex3.4, Deusf, Dehacked.
Bugs:	No SS-man graphics. I don't like nazis. :)

Monster descriptions    : (who is who)
                          
              **** MONSTERS FOR BOTH DOOMS ****

Player       : How somebody can think of being cool without
                             sunglasses? Now I've fixed that.
              Pistol guy   : A green martian with a hair dryer-style gun. 
                             Explode him with berserk and laugh!
              Shotgunner   : Another greeney... He has a real gun, and
                             again cool exploding death. :)
              Imp          : Umm, this is just another imp, but somewhat         
                             different.
              Demon        : This toy monster has no small parts that can
                             be swallowed. He swallows children, though.
              Spectre      : Same as demon, but invisible...
              Lost Soul    : This one has a sharp tongue...
              Cacodemon    : The evil voodoo gurus are here. And they know how
                             to cast fireball spells.
              Baron of Hell: Who were the Barons of Jurassic Hell? Now they've
                             come here to eat you... Velociraptors!
              Cyberdemon   : This big thingy has a four-barrel bazooka, and 
                             he kicks you off your shoes with his cyberfoot.
              Spiderdemon  : This time she's less brains and more gunmetal...
                             Suits better her behaviour. :)

**** MONSTERS IN DOOM2 ONLY ****

These are made from the ones mentioned above, just by changing
              their colours... The Doom2-only monsters don't work without the
              patched POVDOOM.EXE (Installation program makes it). I have also
              made little changes on how they behave.

Chaingunner  : He's actually a Red player with a chaingun...
              Revenant     : This kind of Gray velociraptor is extremely fast 
                             and deadly... But fortunately somewhat weak.
              Arachnotron  : All the Green players who have died in Doom2, 
                             have risen from their graves, and this time they
                             have plasma rifles!
              Hell knight  : A Brown raptor from the Jurassic... Weaker than 
                             the green one (Baron).
              Archvile     : Same Gray raptor as Revenant. (Doesn't respawn
                             bodies)
              Mancubus     : The little brother of the Cyber Demon, this buddy
                             has a bazooka. Wears Brown armours.
