============================================================================ Archive Maintainer : Please place in /utils/exe_edit Update to : idgames/utils/exe_edit/doomhack.zip Advanced engine needed : Doom or Doom2 v1.9 (709905 bytes) Primary purpose : Patching DOOM's binary executable ============================================================================ Title : Essential Doom-plus and Doom v1.11 hacks Filename : PLUS\PATCH.DAT, LONGTICS\PATCH.DAT Release date : December 20th, 2006 This version : December 10th, 2007 (14th Doomsday!) Author : Miguel Folatelli (aka myk) Email Address : myk.helnyte@gmail.com Misc. Author Info : I merely prepared these particular patches Description : The patch in PLUS incorporates e6y's hacks to raise Doom's limits so that it can load large or complex levels, the one in LONGTICS loads the changes discovered by cph to enable v1.11 demos, misnamed v1.91, against what's specified by the demo version format; 100 (1) + minor version. Visit the Doom-plus and Longtics sites for more information: Plus (http://www.geocities.com/e6y/doom.html) Longtics (http://www.doom2.net/doom2/doomp191/) To install a hack place PATCH.COM and DOOM.EXE or DOOM2.EXE in the corresponding subdirectory and read text file contained therein. Note that these patches are cumulative (you can apply them both to a single copy of Doom), and may in turn be combined with DeHackEd patches. Additional Credits to : Andrey Budko (aka e6y) for extending Doom's limits, Colin Phipps (aka cph) for engineering the longtics tweak, and the rest of the longtics team. ============================================================================ * What is included * Dehacked/BEX Patch : No (but it's similar) Demos : No (but one hack is related to these) Other : Yes (patches to alter the binaries) Other files required : Doom v1.9 for DOS (709905 bytes) * Play Information * Game : DOOM v1.9 or DOOM II v1.9 * Construction * Base : Doom2.crk by e6y, and doomp191.c by vv.
