=========================================================================== Archive Maintainer : Combos Directory, please! Update to : Nothing Advanced engine needed : ZDOOM .63a Primary purpose : Single/Coop/DM, whatever you prefer. =========================================================================== Title : ACTION Revolution! Filename : actrev_X.wad Release date : The day I uploaded it. Author : Xaser Email Address : xaser_88@hotmail.com Other Files By Author : Anything ending in _X and some other random crap Misc. Author Info : Death to Chainsaws is my current project. Yay! Description : I have always loved Action Doom's weapons. Unfortunately, due to all the other dehackiness of the wad, I was unable to use the weapons with any other wad. I finally got so sick and tired of that feeling that I started this: a port of all of Action Doom's weapons in a form that can be used on anything. Now, I finished the darn thing. Some of these guns are the same as the original ones, while others are modified a bit. Of course, I added a few new ones, as always, but they act quite a bit differently than Action Doom's guns. Sure, this may seem like a simple rip-off, but I had to painstakingly re- create each and every one of these weapons by hand. Anyway, I think that this weaponset is one of the coolest I've ever made. I hope you agree as well. :P Also look for an update to Warzone in the future. Additional Credits to : Scuba Steve!!! Almost all the weapons were based off his guns for Action Doom, and he did all the weapon graphics except for one weapon which uses ripped Dark Forces graphics. The sounds are from a variety of wads, mostly Daniel's Armas series and his 99weap.zip. Thanks alot!!! Special thanks to MasterOFDeath for Betatesting and stuff! Heh. :P =========================================================================== * What is included * New levels : None Sounds : Yes Music : Yes Graphics : Yes Dehacked/BEX Patch : Yes Demos : Not this time. :P Other : Yes (some misc. zdoom specific crap.)

Yay! 2: ACTION PISTOL A pistol that is actually powerful! It uses its own ammo type and can be a dependable weapon to fall back to. Taken from Action Doom. 3: SPREAD GUN A gun that shoots out a spread of 5 plasma shots that do a considerable amount of damage. Use this alot. Taken from Action Doom. 4: HEAVY ASSAULT RIFLE A fast weapon that rips through baddies quickly, but also does the same to ammo. Taken from Action Doom. 5: MISSILE LAUNCHER Ouch. This thing has an extremely wide explosion radius that can take out most baddies in a couple of shots. It loses most of its effectiveness on boss enemies, though. Taken from Action Doom. 6: FLAMETHROWER Burn, baby, burn! This thing is powerful as hell, but doesn't shoot very far. :P Taken from Action Doom. 7: BFG 8080 PROTOTYPE Hell yes! It shoots out a bunch of deadly blasts that fly around, ripping apart anything in its path. It uses its own ammo supply that is dropped by certain bio-mechanical monsters. Taken from Action Doom (although the original didn't do much of anything. :P). 8: PLASMA RAIN INDUCER Fires a slightly-homing projectile that calls forth a deadly plasma rain storm upon impact. Very useful indeed. Graphics from Dark Forces. 9: ENERGY GUN Shoots out a beam of energy that melts baddies up close. It's not an Action Doom weapon, but it still uses Scuba Steve's graphics. =========================================================================== * Copyright / Permissions * Authors MAY use the contents of this file as a base for modification or reuse.
