**Dehacked Patch for v3.0**
The Whip patch
By PhaetonX(phaetonx@bluefin.net)

This is a neat new patch for Dehacked. It changes some of the weapons in Doom 
2. I have put a whole bunch of effort into this, so please respond to me about 
it at the aformentioned Email address. Here are discriptions:

Chainsaw: Plasma Whip
This is a unique weapon. It now loos like a pistol, but acts in a totally new
way... When you select it, a stream of harmless green plasma balls will 
continue to fall out onto the ground from your weapon. Hitting the firing 
button(I use alt!), you will yank up the whip and can flail it around, 
damaging anything it hits. This is nifty indeed, but someone please tell me 
what it's like in multiplayer games, as I haven't yet gotten my friends to 
register their copies yet.

Plasma Gun: Slicer
This is aptly named. The plasma gun now slices through monsters, as it rapidly
shoots a shotgun-like swath of shells.

BFG9000: Field Disrupter
This is best used at long range. When you fire into an area full of enemies,
this will create a field of death and destruction, created by firing several
super-shotgun blasts. This is powerful, and eats only six cells per shot. 
*Hint: tap the fire button to continue the field's effect.

This is a neat patch. I hope it's good for deathmatch, but as I said before,
my friends aren't registered yet. A note about this patch: First, most of 
these effects are created by using Code Pointers. A list of useful code
pointers can be found on the DeHackEd Grab bag on the Doom Editing site on the
web. Go to webcrawler (http://webcrawler.com) and search for dehacked grabbag.
Also, Be on the lookout for The Imp Patch, which turns the player completely 
into an imp! With fireballs and all! This one is for deathmatch, so I'm 
waiting for my friends so we can test it. 
Have a nice day!
