Filename:	levels/doom2/Ports/a-c/bgates.zip
Size:	116.49 KB
Date:	04/02/01
Author:	Garth "Drat" Dunn
Description:	Replaces the Icon of Sin with Bill Gates' severed head. Also changes several graphics used in Map 30. In addition there are three new alternate alert sounds for the Icon. This is version 1.1, as I have now added the dehacked patch into bgates.wad, so ZDoom users can just load the wad and ZDoom will load the patch automatically.
Credits:
Base:	Images from www.ihatebillgates.com, modified Id graphics, some original stuff (the disk drive).
Build time:
Editor(s) used:	Paint Shop Pro 5, Goldwave, Wintex 4.3 and Dehacked 3.0a.
Bugs:	There are some graphical problems in Map30 with the new graphics, but that is a symptom of the original level design.

Anonymous	The Borg Bill Gates in MARSWAR was much better.	x
Anonymous	Yeah, it was stupid crap I made when I was younger and dumber. So sue me. And I can't help it if some third-party website disappears a few years after I uploaded this.	x
Anonymous	Meh. Another map ranting windows...Next one!	x
Anonymous	Lame. Just like above rants.	x
Anonymous	Gates is a greedy dickhead just trying to monopolize the entire computer industry. Windows was nice at first, but ever since windows98, it has been utter crap. And now all this stupid XP shit, and Bill, even after a lawsuit, still trying to monopolize the entire computer industry. Anyways, this rules.	x
Anonymous	Did not like it. 0 stars. Not to mention the fact that ihatebillgates.com doesn't work. Oh, and Bill Gates isn't a cheap skate like Britney Spears and those other music cheap heads. Gates DESERVES to be rich because he invented (or created to be more specific) Windows to enhance society and to help people live their daily lives. Britney Spears just sings some stupid music that some dumb people (called fanatics) give tons of their money to.	x

Thanks to               : Bill Gates for being such a downright git
                          Id Software for creating DooM
                          www.ihatebillgates.com for the pics of the evil geek lord himself
                          Serge Smirnov for Cleanwad
                          Olivier Montanuy for Wintex
                          Star Wars and Star Trek for inspiration for two of the voice samples.

Map #                   : Designed for original DooM II's Map 30

Cooperative 2-4 Player  : Yes, untested
Deathmatch 2-4 Player   : Yes, untested
Difficulty Settings     : N/A
New Sounds              : Yes
New Graphics            : Yes
Dehacked/BEX Patch      : Yes. Replaces story text at end of game. A tiny bit of it is taken
                          from the DooM I end story.
New Music               : No
Demos Replaced          : None
Usage                   : Load bgates.wad and ONE of the three other wad files (640k.wad,
                          futile.wad and dorkside.wad), and bgates.deh. Then play Map 30.
                          There is a copy of the dehacked patch in bgates.wad, so if you are
                          using a source port that can load dehacked patches from wads
                          (such as ZDooM) you don't need to load the DEH file.

Known Bugs              : There are some graphical problems in Map30 with the new graphics,
                          but that is a symptom of the original level design.

Notes                   : The voice samples are by me. They have also been distorted.
                          They are somewhat crap, but hey, I'm no voice actor, and I only
                          had one recording of Bill Gates to base my impressions on.

Oh and don't get me wrong, I like Microsoft software, but
                          I hate Bill Gates, and I am very annoyed about some features
                          that aren't in Windows.
