Base:	New from scratch E3M8 is a bigger version of Wheelers earlier CITYLIFE.WAD. The author has also anonymously released a series of separate WADs, called PLANET**.WAD's, that became later the Episode 2 of PTWRATH.WAD: PTWRATH.WAD E2M7 --> PLANET-A.WAD E1M1 / PLANET_A.WAD E2M7 PTWRATH.WAD E2M3 --> PLANET-B.WAD E2M3 PTWRATH.WAD E2M4 --> PLANET-C.WAD E2M4 PTWRATH.WAD E2M9 --> PLANET-D.WAD E2M9 PTWRATH.WAD E2M6 --> PLANET-E.WAD E2M6 PTWRATH.WAD E2M5 --> PLANET-F.WAD E2M5 PTWRATH.WAD E2M1 --> PLANET-G.WAD E1M1 PTWRATH.WAD E2M8 --> PLANET-H.WAD E2M8 PTWRATH.WAD E2M2 --> PLANET-I.WAD E2M2
Build time:
Editor(s) used:	deutex and xwe for pwadisation.
Bugs:	[Note by the uploader:] I found some HOM effects in E2M9 and was able to fix this by using the automatic fixing features of Codeimps DooMBuilder. The result is stored in e2m9fix.wad and used by the batch-files.

Anonymous	For late 1994 these maps are frankly incredible, compared to most of the crap that was being churned out then (they even have an early form of transparent deep water) However the monster placement and balance is nonexistent, for intsnance E2M1 expects you to battle hordes of imps and two (flying and fast) barons with a pistol and 12 shells.	x
Anonymous	For some odd reason I find these ridiculously unbalanced maps to be lots of fun. 4/5 - Belial	x

Title                   : PTDOOM (PWAD-version)
Filename                : ptwrath.wad, flybaron.wad, flybaron.deh,
                          cocohead.wad, possguy.wad, sposguy.wad,
                          ptaliens.wad, e2m9fix.wad
Note by the uploader    : This has been originally released as a bundle of
                          the level wad and the enemy graphics, that had to
                          be separately installed via dmgraph. Also the
                          dehacked patch was created with a nowadays
                          outdated version of dehacked and an outdated
                          version of DooM. Because of that, this has been
                          converted into a modern source-port-friendly
                          format by the uploader. It's also still playable
                          with plain vanilla DooM (see installation
                          instructions below). The name of the creator of
                          this stuff has been found out via searching the
                          web and reading the textfiles of his other stuff.

Playing
with source ports       : To run this stuff with any common advanced
                          source-port, the most simple way might be to just
                          place the files from ptdoomp.zip into the
                          directory, where your DooM-IWAD and source-port-
                          executable is, and modify the file edit_me.bat,
                          so that it calls your executable.
                          You might also want to peek into bla.bat (the
                          general concept works
                          not only with zdoom, but also with prboom,
                          gzdoom, legacy, you-name-it ...), that i used to
                          test this stuff without having to mix up my holy
                          DooM- and source-port-folders with a bunch of
                          add-on files. Edit one of those batch files to
                          your needs, and everything will go fine.

Playing
with plain vanilla DooM : Short instructions:
                          - You need deusf and deutex in your directory.
                          - Install with vaninst.bat .
                          - Play with vanplay.bat .
                          - Enjoy!

Long instructions:
                          To run this add-on with plain vanilla DooM, you
                          will want to put all the data of the separate
                          pwads into one single pwad and to add some
                          necessary stuff from the IWAD to that file.
                          You will also have to modify your doom.exe with
                          the included dehacked patch.
                          In order to do this, you have to get the latest
                          version of DEUSF, that comes together with DEUTEX
                          (stored in the directory
                          /utils/graphics_edit/deutex/ of the /idgames -ftp
                          -archives, see list of mirrors below).
                          You also have to have dehacked from either
                          dhe30a.zip or dhe31.zip. They are stored in
                          utils/exe_edit/ of the /idgames -ftp-archives.
                          Now place deusf.exe and dehacked.exe
                          in DooM-Installation and the new pwads.
                          Run the batch-file vaninst.bat. You can then play
                          the game by running the batch-file vanplay.bat.
                          The modified executable, that is intended to be
                          used with this add-on will be doomhack.exe. You
                          can delete it with the other add-on files, when
                          you no longer want to play with PTDOOM.

Base                    : New from scratch
                          E3M8 is a bigger version of Wheelers earlier
                          CITYLIFE.WAD.
                          The author has also anonymously released a series
                          of separate WADs, called PLANET**.WAD's,
                          that became later the Episode 2 of PTWRATH.WAD:
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M7 --> PLANET-A.WAD E1M1 
                                               / PLANET_A.WAD E2M7
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M3 --> PLANET-B.WAD E2M3
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M4 --> PLANET-C.WAD E2M4
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M9 --> PLANET-D.WAD E2M9
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M6 --> PLANET-E.WAD E2M6
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M5 --> PLANET-F.WAD E2M5
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M1 --> PLANET-G.WAD E1M1
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M8 --> PLANET-H.WAD E2M8
                          PTWRATH.WAD E2M2 --> PLANET-I.WAD E2M2
Editor(s) used          : deutex and xwe for pwadisation.
Known Bugs              : [Note by the uploader:] I found some HOM effects
                          in E2M9 and was able to fix this by using the
                          automatic fixing features of Codeimps
                          DooMBuilder. The result is stored in e2m9fix.wad
                          and used by the batch-files.

Please note             : The original dehacked patch, created with dehacked
                          1.3 and DooM v. 1.2 is together with the
                          original File_id.diz stored in the zip
                          origdizanddeh.zip.
