Mostly the graphics are rips from the Aliens TC and its spinoffs, it contains the shitty gory deaths from Eric Harris' and other "gory" wads, but it does have an interesting status bar. Mainly the only things good about this wad are the sounds which are from everywhere, but mostly seeming from MST3K and other movies like Cheech and Chong and tv shows like star trek TNG and ren & stimpy. The weapon sounds are cool, though.

* FX Information *

Game Type       : Doom (Maybe Doom II, I haven't tried it yet.)
New Sounds      : Most.  (BTW, that's me grunting when you try to push a wall!)
New Music       : None.  (They make the .wad WAY too big!)
New Graphics    : Yes.  None of these graphics were created by me.  Tanx to
those who did.  You know who you are.  One weapon icon edited by me.

The Deal:

O.k. here it is.  This wad, after you install it (just unzip everything into
your Doom directory and type ZAPPER.  Have no fear, only my wadfile changes),
replaces the pistol with a better looking pistol from Orin Flaharty's Aliens
T.C. add-on; the chaingun with the pulse rifle from Justin Fisher's Aliens
T.C.; the rocket launcher goes up on you shoulder where it belongs by way of
SMRL V1.2 by Tony Collen; the plasma gun with a gun from Dark Forces and the
BFG with the original plasma gun, but with a twist.  Those last two came from
White Tiger.  All of this stuff is top quality and you should hunt down the
original works by these guys and play them... a lot!!!

Also changed are the soldier, sargeant, demon and imp death graphics.  Thanks
to Greg Grimsby for the imps and Dryerson for the others.  Love the brains,
Greg!

The sounds came from about a zillion different wads and I couldn't begin to
tell you where and who they came from (actually, if I sat down and listened
to each one I probably could tell ya where it came from but I just don't feel
like it!). I edited many to make them better fit the game and become less
annoying (I HATE when sounds get cut off due to laziness on the part of the
author).  I play with wad this all the time and I still laugh at some of the
MST3K lines!  I came up with a few myself...my fav being the X-Files theme
that plays when soldiers are nearby.

I may add some more or change some around.  I hope ya'll enjoy this stuff.
Let me know what ya think.
