Lucas Arts for their excellent "DooM clone" Dark Forces id Software for DooM, DooM2 3DRealms for Duke Nukem3D, from which I extracted the moonscape sky patches, which I then modified to create 2 tall sky textures. Also the space suit, satellite dish, and numerous other graphics. Randy Heit (zdoom.notgod.com) for his incredible source port Neil Bowman (www.geocities.com/area51/lair/1800/stardoom.html) for the Rogue Jedi, miscellaneous sprites, graphics, sounds, and music.
