About This File
* mega.deh * In mega.deh is the MegaViolence mode. If you use plain vanilla doom, you can load it with dehacked (it's stored at utils/exe_edit/dhe31.zip in the /idgames -archives, see list of mirrors at the end of this file) into your doom.exe. If you use an advanced source-port, you can load it with the -deh -parameter. [Please read MEGADETH.TXT in megad24a.zip for detailed description of the MegaViolence Mode.]
* laser.wad * Laser-sight graphics for weapons. Newer source ports shouldn't have problems with loading this graphics-replacement in combination with the level-wads in this release. But if you use plain vanilla doom, you should get the latest version of DEUSF ( /utils/graphics_edit/deutex/deutex44.zip in the /idgames -archives) and join them. If you do it with MEGADETH.WAD, the command is: DEUSF -join MEGADETH.WAD laser.wad (MEGADETH.WAD now contains both wads). Typing: -append MEGADETH.WAD will append the sprites & flats of Doom to that WAD. This will work also with the other level-wads in this package. Again: Most newer source-ports don't require this procedure.

* MEGADETH.WAD * The ultimate DeathMatch level. This level is specifically designed for DEATHMATCH play. It comprises 4 zones: the ATRIUM (centre); JSH ZONE (East); ARENA (West); and the WARP ZONE (North). There are also two SECRET ROOMS. Each zone has its own theme, strategy and secrets. Note that the skill levels (1-5) also have a major effect on the strategies. MEGADETH is designed to be played with monsters present. MEGADETH incorporates the use of enhanced weapons. Laser sights and MegaViolence mode are independently switchable (see mega.deh and laser.wad). [Please read MEGADETH.TXT in megad24a.zip for detailed background story and gameplay hints.]
