SARGE.EXE
v 1.1 (6-12-95)

INTRO: This program is a DOOM and DOOM II utility that randomly changes most
items in any WAD file to Sergeants, Chaingunners, or Wolfenstein SS troops.
It was made with my own personal tastes in mind and due the lack of such a
program for DOOM II as far as I know. I prefer a rough game on Ultra-Violence
that is as realistic as possible and I do not find demons or aliens to be very
realistic. You will now have neat effects such as bad guys in the secret rooms
where there weren't any before.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW: This program does not make backups! Copy your WAD file
to another name or a different directory first. I think id Software would be
a little pissed if you changed your main DOOM2.WAD and then called them for
tech support. The program is designed to create fairly hard levels. They 
should only be bad initially because you don't have any weapons and may be
surrounded. If they are too much for you-run the program TWICE on the same
WAD and it will replace more bad guys with medical supplies. It works on any
PWAD or IWAD except the Shareware version. Remember, The Wolf SS guys do not
drop a weapon when they die, just ammo, so they are a little harder. This
program will run from WINDOWS.

BUGS: I cannot be sure that it will work properly on PWADs with new music or
graphics. You will also notice guys standing on top of each other or pre-
venting lifts from working properly, etc. This is a normal side effect of a
program such as this and it would not be worth the effort to prevent all such
occurences. Besides, what's the big deal? They will still die when you shoot
them. Version 1.1 fixes the early discovered "12th floor" bug-other WADs may
have this same problem, but most will not.
