I've always wanted to contribute to the Star Wars total conversion and to the
Star Wars theme. I worked VERY hard to find the components necessary to make
this wad. If you know how I did it keep the secret to yourself (And don't
ask me, it'll only make me wonder if you're some kind of government spy). I
wanted to add sounds but they would have made the wad titanically humungous.
If you know what a .wax file is for Dark Forces write and tell me where to
find some. Included is: the wad itself, DeUSF, and a dehacked patch I made
for my own usage to switch some graphics and sounds around from my wad and
other Star Wars wads because things didn't seem right where they were.

To install place all files in your DOOM 2 directory and type:

DEUSF -append stwargfx.wad

Replaced enemies are:
         Pink Demon with Jawas (Gamorrean pig guards with patch)
         SS Nazi with Gamorrean pig guards (Jawas with patch)
         Mancubus with Snowtroopers (From Empire Strikes Back)
         Hell Knights with Tusken Raiders (Sand people)
         Arachnotron with Phase 1 dark trooper from Dark Forces
         Pain Elemental with Phase 2 dark trooper from Dark Forces
         Spider Demon with Phase 3 dark trooper from Dark Forces

As far as I know, now all that's left is the player, status bar, the player's
face, and the Arch Vile (ugh! congratulations if you can replace him). Let
me know what else must be changed as well as if you have any thing listed
above.

Authors MAY use this level as a base to build additional
levels. In fact, I'd love to see some new Star Wars themed levels. Maybe
I'll even make some sprites and textures to get you started.

Please write and tell me what you thought. I love critism whether it's good
or bad. Just ask my friends. Please let me know of any Bugs. If you've seen
any enemies from Dark Forces you'd like to see in DOOM, make your requests.
