                       DooMII Backpack V2.0
                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                 Scott Langstaff  (psycho@sol.co.uk)

This wad was originally inspired by Mark Klem's excellent
Markinc wad. The idea of including things you would always 
want when you play DooMII :)

What's "DooMII Backpack" all about? Well, basically I have taken 
a whole bunch of cool DooM stuff, stuck it all together, and
added some of my own touches..In short, this is everything
you could possibly want for DooM2 (almost).

For a full listing of everyone who has contributed to this wad,
see THANKS.DOC as soon as possible.
Apart from the files required to play backpack.wad, I have also
included:

LEV30N.ZIP }   
            LEV30N.LMP
            LEV30N.TXT

This file is purely for interest and you may remove it if you wish.

*************************INSTALLATION****************************************

Unfortunately, to play this, you must modify your DOOM2.WAD. 
This procedure, however, is reversible and the installation is quite simple:

BACKPACK 
        -this will merge DooMII Backpack into DOOM2.WAD

RESTORE
        -this will return DOOM2.WAD to its normal state

*****************************************************************************

I would greatly appreciate people's opinion on this wad. Good? Bad?
Of course, you can e-mail me about anything related to DooM if you like.
Or black metal, or ferrets (Ferrets TC?) or whatever.
Also, if you discover any bugs, please let me know.

If you wish to use any part of this wad elsewhere, check out THANKS.DOC
to see if the part you wish to use is listed with the author and e-mail
address..If something you wish to use is not listed in THANKS.DOC, then
I am the author. However, if an author or contact address is not known 
for some reason, then I'm afraid I cannot help..
If you wish to distribute "DooM II Backpack" as a full package, then 
you can do so, but please e-mail me first.
