=========================================================================== Archive Maintainer : Combos Directory, please! Advanced engine needed : Zdoom Primary purpose : Anything. Use at your own risk. :P =========================================================================== Title : Pyr0M4N1AC!!! Filename : pyro_x.wad Release date : 3/13/04 (I think. :) Author : Xaser Email Address : xaser_88@hotmail.com Other Files By Author : Look for anything that ends in _X. Misc. Author Info : I am a huge fan of Weapon Replacements and SHiT WADS. Description : YES! Another gosh-dang weapon conversion by me! This time, you get mostly fire-themed weapons. This weapon replacement is more advanced than all my other ones. I sort of did a huge blowout on these guns, because this is gonna be my last weapon conversion using DEHACKED, now that Custom Decorate weapons in Zdoom is right around the corner. The weapons are much more powerful, but I didn't make the mistake that I (we, I guess, since I didn't make it alone) made in P0wer Weapons. The monsters' difficulty has been increased, so be on the lookout. Anyway, I hope you get a little enjoyment out of this. Try playing it with your favorite MEGAWAD or something... :P Additional Credits to : Randy Heit, for the godly Zdoom! Numerous others that I can't seem to think of right now. =========================================================================== * What is included * New levels : None Sounds : Yes Music : No Graphics : Yes Dehacked/BEX Patch : Yes, it's in the wad file itself.

Since when did Doomguy smoke? 1-Auto Rifle- This is the perfect weapon for ammo conserving nuts. It uses HellShells, the ammo used for the shredder and Vengeance Cannnon, but it only uses 1 shell per shot. However, it isn't quite as powerful as either of those two weapons, so don't attempt to use in a crowd of Arch-Viles. :P 2-Hand Cannon- Like a pistol, only with 4 barrels. It's pretty destructive for a first weapon. 3-Shredder- A Rifle that shoots out a shotgun-like spread of pellets and a strong plasma pellet. Uses 4 HellShells per shot. 3-Vengeance Cannnon- The Strangest weapon. It shoots 3 shotgum blasts, followed by two pistol shots, and finally a Railgun blast. Experienced users can even use the seperate attacks on seperate enemies. Uses 10 HellShells per shot. 4-Minigun- It's like a Chaingun, only on a triple overdose of Steroids. Has Awesome GFX. 5-Fireball Chaingun- Shoots out high-explosive fireballs at a moderately fast rate. Think of a rapid-fire rocket launcher. You'll get the idea. 6-Phaser- Shoots out a Yellow Laser beam that can be freely moved from place to place. This is the perfect weapon for huge groups of demons. Be careful though, It uses up ammo faster than a Mad Dog can rip up a bloody corpse. [/lame comparison] 7-Napalm Cannon- Anything that gets even remotely close to one of these shots ends up like fried chicken put in the deep-fryer too long (ie, burnt to a crisp). This gun is also the easiest way in the game to kill yourself. Don't say I didn't warn you. =========================================================================== * Enemy Modifications * Pistol trooper : Now a Fast Midget Chaingunner that shoots pistol shots. :P Shotgun trooper : Evil Marine. Explodes when dies. Chaingun guy : Equipped with Brand-new Miniguns. Imp : Walks through Walls. Cacodemon : Shoots Super-fast bullets at you at a fast rate. Explodes on death. Lost soul : Turns into flames when it dies. Its charge does stupidly high damage. Pain Elemental : No change, except that it shoots out the super-souls. Hell Knight : Chucks Napalm. Revenant : Its fireball Explodes into Flames and Lost Souls as it flies. Arachnotron : Shoots a Railgun. Baron of Hell : Chucks Napalm. Cyberdemon : Equipped with a Super Fireball Gatling Gun! SpiderMind : Has a Very Fast-shooting Railgun. Arch-vile : Reflects projectiles and is invulnerable, except while attacking. Demon/spectre : Transforms into an Eye for about a second, during which he is invulnerable. Mancubus : Shoots his Fireballs Rapid-Fire Nazi guy : You'll have to see it to believe it... :P Commander Keen : Near-Dead Marine. :P =========================================================================== * Copyright / Permissions * Authors MAY use the contents of this file as a base for modification or reuse.
