This includes the previous barney patch, follow the instructions in the text file you got with it. Copy all of the gif and snd files and the bat files into your doom directory along with dmgraph.exe. Type "barneym2" This should install barney in place of the Barons of Hell. Use idclev18 to check, or idclev29 if you really want to. The old Baron of Hell sprites are saved in the Baron directory along with the sounds. To remove barney again, type "unbarnm2". You can then delete the contents of the Baron directory, once you have satisfied yourself that unbarney worked Where it came from: This barney patch was designed by Alden Bates (abates@comp.vuw.ac.nz) The original ray traced patch was by: David Lobser (But don't complain to him) Thanks go also to: Aaron Blackwell (Who updated David's graphics), Laurie Kennedy, Scott McKenzie, Steve Piner and Darren Bottin. How it came: Barney was drawn using xpaint. He was not rendered using any ray tracing tools, also the author was working off a front only shot of the dino's mug, so he looks a little odd from the sides. He also looks slightly cartoonish. Other bugs: For some reason, the full shades of colour I rendered Barney in didn't turn out right in DooM. The other gif viewer I have shows them perfectly. Because of the was ID recycles the sounds, some of the monsters eg Demons and Lost Souls, have been subverted by the evil B'harne... What you can do with this patch: You can distribute it, (please upload to as may BBSs/ftp sites as will let you. You can change the graphics to make Barney look more like Barney, tattoo your name on his forehead, paint a target on his stomach, anythin you like under the following conditions: 1) You distrubute this text file with it. 2) You note what changes you made so I don't get blamed for them... Having said this, no-one's likely to take a blind bit of notice anyway. Alden Bates --- Never use respawn on a level with a lot of sergents. Not if you don't want your games to crash through too many objects: The numerous shotguns from the regenerated sergents.... Found that out on E3M9
