Description:	This patch will replace the sergeants in Doom2 (should work with Doom1 but I haven't tested it) with a Stormtrooper from Star Wars. I decided to do this thing when I saw the original STROOPER stormtrooper replacement. I knew it could be done better so I just had to try. I commend the author of that one for drawing a completely new set of graphics (a pretty good set too), but it just didn't seem to melt into the game. The graphics were modeled after the ones in Dark Forces--tweaked a bit to fit in with Doom. They blend quite nicely, I think. Besides the graphics, some sounds were also replaced. The sounds were also from Dark Forces and seem to work okay too--but occasionally the former humans will yell Stormtrooper exclamations because they use the same sounds as the sergeants.

        This patch will replace the sergeants in Doom2 (should work with Doom1
but I haven't tested it) with a Stormtrooper from Star Wars.
        I decided to do this thing when I saw the original STROOPER stormtrooper
replacement.  I knew it could be done better so I just had to try.  I commend
the author of that one for drawing a completely new set of graphics (a pretty
good set too), but it just didn't seem to melt into the game.
        The graphics were modeled after the ones in Dark Forces--tweaked a bit
to fit in with Doom.  They blend quite nicely, I think.  Besides the graphics,
some sounds were also replaced.  The sounds were also from Dark Forces and 
seem to work okay too--but occasionally the former humans will yell Stormtrooper
exclamations because they use the same sounds as the sergeants.

GETTING THIS THING TO WORK

-Put all the files from the zip into your Doom or Doom2 directory  
-If you can, try and use the version of Deusf included (to avoid any problems)
-Run STORM.BAT --it will create the useable wad file out of STORM.WAD
-Run DOOM2.EXE with the -file storm.wad command to play Doom2 with the 
 sergeants replaced by the Stormtrooper
-If you want to try this thing with Doom 1, go ahead--It SHOULD work

STUFF BEFORE YOU GO

If you liked this patch, or if you hated it, you can email me at 
EISS9@aol.com --I can always use feedback.
        Oh, and please don't use the graphics without asking me. (this is 
partly because any project that would need a stormtrooper I'd be interested
in.)
