Author:	Glen Payne, Marshal Bostwick
Description:	This set of wads contains new monsters, textures, graphics, and sounds. Loosely based on the movie "STARGATE" (which had a decent premise, anyway... the wads are better). Designed to be DIFFICULT, with serious thought given to gameplay, lighting, architecture, and theme. Gameplay will be best on ULTRAVIOLENT in single-player or co-op modes, though provision for deathmatch is included (4 starts). Designed NOT to be cheesy, NOT to be so huge as to slow your machine to a crawl. These are big bad wads, though. Not for the faint of heart. A connoisseur's wadset. Requires doom2 1.9 or a deft hand with dehacked...

Anonymous	^ Osiris TC readme says it's a sequel to this though. Anyway, this is absolewdly legendary for the new gfx/sounds alone. Gameplay leans more towards exploration, while being spot on with the mysterious egyptian theme, and there are some nice secrets. Playing with pistolstarts/fastmon sters does provide an ok challenge. 5*	x
Anonymous	Just a demo (not a prequel!) of legendary OSIRIS TC	x
Anonymous	It doesn't get much more legendary than this. Inspirational. 5 stars.	x
Anonymous	The excellent prequel to OSIRIS, cool flamethrower and great ambience, but the gameplay is a little too easy on UV to merit the full 5 stars -- Steve Duff	x

                The install batch will make all necessary modifications,
                provided it doesn't find something amiss.  Your existing
