: First of all, let me say that I do appreciate the effort being made to
: give Doom a star wars feel. I'm using starwar2.wad (the death star game)
: and I like it overall.
: However, I think that I would prefer to have a graphic file that was more
: complete than the one I now have. In the one I'm using, none of the weapons
: have been changed. Thus, if you hit '1', you get a light saber sound with
: the chain saw pulled out, etc. Some of the monsters from the old game
: are still present, which tends to take away from the star wars feel. The
: fireball throwing brown one seems to be a Wookie, or something, and the
: wimpy, gun-wielding one is also there. Is it possible to replace these with
: Imperial officers or something?
: The sound effects file was nice, but a bit excessive when pulling random
: quotes out from the movies. Han Solo's voice got annoying after a while.
: Anyway, can someone tell me what the latest patches are that are available,
: and whether or not the graphics have been improved?
I would appreciate it if someone could post the whereabouts of the
Star Wars module to the Doom game. I can't wait long enough for DF to come out
to check it out...
