-------------------------------------------------------------------------         
Note- this replaces kaboom.zip that didn't work very well.  It seems that
increasing the number of rockets you pick up each time would hang some
deathmatches (wierd - I think it has to do with to many objects) Anyway,
this one works and is still a "blast" to play.(groan) 
      I also include dehacked and the fix patches in this one      
      Have fun!

             DEHACKED.EXE - THE tool that makes it all possible

Discription: Land-mines for DEATHMATCH, well for any DOOM game,
             but best in DEATHMATCH

I basically used Greg Lewis' excellent DOOM.EXE hacker
             ( DEHACKED 1.3 ) to make the rockets motionless and partially 
             invisible (like spectres). I also made them vulnerable to attack 
             so that you can clear them if you find them.

There are three other cool things. 
             
             I'm listing these features seperately because I did not plan
             on them they just happened.
             
             1. If you lay the mine, it won't hurt you in that life. 
             However,if you die, come back, and then run in to it, you 
             will die again.

2. You will get a FRAG credit if someone hits a mine you laid,
             but you must stay alive until then or no credit.

3. If you shoot a mine once with the pistol, it will float off
             slowly in the direction of the shot (carefull, twice and it blows).
             We have not yet discovered the full benefits of this, but it's
             still pretty cool to do).

Background:  Author- me (name and E-mail adrss above) Thanks to DOOM I am 
             a download junkie. My computer spends more time connected to 
             infant2 than it does doing work.  I have used everything
             everyone else has contributed, it's time I gave something
             back to the community.
buildtime:   Maybe an hour
testing:     A LOT!!! (I have officially crossed the "get a life" line)
Tool used:   DEHACKED Greg Lewis's executable hacker/patch maker Vers.1.3
             (very nice job, by the way, Greg)

copyrights - UH... WHAT?  do what ever you want with this, if you change
it, though, please make sure you take the blame.

Where to find this: infant2.sphs.indiana.edu   (THE doom site)

Instructions- 1. Download
              2. unzip in your doom directory
