This is Quasar's updated AliensTC for Ultimate Doom and recent source ports (It won't work with Doom2). Note that I just stuck it in my webspace, I didn't actually do any work on it, and of course the bulk of the work (the original TC) is and always will be due to Justin Fisher. Grab the zipfile (1.7 megs) (Please don't link to the file directly, as I'll likely be moving it over to another server soon) |

AL|ENS TOTAL CONVERSION for Ultimate DOOM, Revision 2.0 ======================================================= This is an updated version of the classic Aliens Total Conversion designed to work with modern DOOM source ports. This version remedies texture problems including the hand rails and HOMs, critical bugs such as bad sidedefs and non-functional doors, addresses a few playability issues such the one-use switch in E2M7, fixes not being able to win the game in E2M8, includes a few minor balance tweaks such as amount of ammo/health in different difficulty levels, and a few minor aesthetic repairs have been made. I have NOT gone out of the way to change texture alignment or theme in any but a few minor cases. I feel the appearance of the levels is part of the true atmosphere of this total conversion and shouldn't be altered. The ATCUD19.DEH file is intact from the original version and includes no fixes except for changing the cyberdemon into an alien queen. The ATCUD19.BEX file is for use with BOOM-derived source ports, and includes fixes for various problems along with BEX-style text strings. You should use the BEX patch if your port supports it. ZDOOM is known to have issues with the original DEH patch, and has not been tested with the BEX patch. Functionality with the ZDOOM port is *NOT* guaranteed. This TC has been tested with BOOM, MBF, and SMMU. This TC *REQUIRES* the Ultimate DOOM v1.9 IWAD to play, it is NOT compatible with DOOM II. This TC does not make use of any extended port features in the wad files themselves. To play the TC, launch your favorite port with the following command-line options. A response file may be necessary, and if your port's dehacked command-line parameter is different, you should substitute it for -deh: -file alitcsf.wad alitcsnd.wad atclev.wad -deh [atcud19.deh | atcud19.bex] Where [atcud19.deh | atcud19.bex] means you should choose one or the other. Other options can be provided at your discretion. See your port's documentation for other things you can do. Information on this TC can be found in some ports by pressing the F1 key. In BOOM-derived ports you may cycle through multiple screens to see info on some other upcoming projects... :) Please do *NOT* attempt to email Justin Fisher or xeno@ovnet.com with questions about this version of Aliens TC.
