Misc. Author Info       : Someone who likes DOOM as much as you.
Description             : A new version of the Icon of Sin.  I get bored of
			  face that wall at the end of almost any megawad.
			  Now, while it's still a static monster, it looks
			  and plays diferent (it isn't a wall anymore), 
		          but retains the clasic DOOM feel.  
			  I designed this patch for authors who want
			  something new that still look doomish
			  to use in their own projects, specially for these
			  who don't like to replace any monster (I mean,
			  Revenants, Barons, Imps, Cacodemons, you know..),
		          or monster projectiles, but still want a new boss, 
		          and are not familiar (like me) with Zdoom 1.63

Files included		: Icon_p.txt - this file.
		          Icon_p.wad - the wad with the new monster.
			  Icon_p.deh - the dehacked file required.
			  Sample.wad - a basic map designed to demonstrate
			  the new monster.
	 		  For these few unexperienced doomers, when you
	                  play you must type: 
			  yourexe -deh icon_p.deh -file icon_p.wad sample.wad

================================================================
* Play Information *

Game                    : DOOM 2 with a port that can handle a wad with 
			  sprites inside, and Dehacked patches.  
			  For sample.wad you'll need a port that allow Z 
			  coordinates (I only tested it with Zdoom).
	
Levels #                : MAP01
Single Player           : Yes
Cooperative 2-4 Player  : Yes
Deathmatch 2-4 Player   : Yes 
Difficulty Settings     : About sample.wad
			  
			  Skill 1-2: you'll face the monster in the default 
			  way, here it look better than in the other skills 
			  but it isn't really a challange (this is supposed 
		          to be played first if you want to test the basic 
			  monster behavior).
			  
			  Skill 3: The monster appears in a medium dificult 
			  level.
			 			  
			  Skill 4-5: The monster is a more of challange,
			  but not excesive.
			  This is the way the map is designed to be played.  

New Sounds              : No
New Graphics            : Yes, I replaced BBRNA0 with a cuted an resized 
			  version of Edmundo's Icon of Sin Sketch, and 
			  BBRNA1 with a modified version of that sprite.  
New Music               : No
Demos Replaced          : No 
Play notes              : Since the sample is just a boss arena, don't ruin
			  the surprise by opening the wad with the sprites
			  before playing it.  And don't forget to use the 
			  deh patch.  Once playing the map. just have fun, 
			  I know that the architecture is basic, the map is 
			  just there to demonstrate the monster with a 
			  playable (not ugly), scenario. 
			  Oh and watch out with the cubes, it's easier
			  than you think to get telefraged.
		
* Construction *

Base                    : Cut and resize Edmundo's sketch, and make it fit
