                        Cacodemon Super Growth Hormone
                        ------------------------------

        This patch for DOOM registered version 1.666 replaces the cacodemon
with a Super Cacodemon:  TWICE the size of the original!  To keep them
proportional, they have eight times the mass and therefore are eight times
more difficult to kill than the original cacodemons.  Their fireballs can
do up to four times the damage. 
        Two new sound files relative to the cacodemon are included, along
with the 36 .gif files that replace all of the original cacodemon sprites
in DOOM.WAD.  Please make a backup copy of your DOOM.WAD and DOOM.EXE
files, as this patch permanently alters them.
        Also, you need dmgraph, dmaud, and dehacked in your DOOM directory
to install this patch.
        Copy bigcaco.deh to your \patches directory if you have one.
To use this patch, unzip it into your DOOM directory and type 'install'.
To see the Super Cacodemons in action, type 'e2m9'.

                                the original DOOM.WAD where this patch
                                can be used without getting cacodemons
                                stuck in the walls.

36 'head' .gifs                 Sprite replacements for DOOM.WAD
caconear.wav                    Replacement sound for an engaged cacodemon
cacodie.wav                     Replacement sound for a dying cacodemon


This patch is not intended for use with already existing pwads and the
DOOM.WAD because of the increased size of the cacodemons (they will all
be stuck in the walls or ceilings!).  It is designed for use with 
new pWADs specially made to account for the enormous size of the
monster.

Tools used:  dmgraph, dmaud, dehacked, ImProcess, LView 1.8, PicLab 1.91,
                DOOM v1.666
Thanks to:   Ajimon Mathai (for help with ImProcess and PicLab), and
                iD software, for the best shoot-'em up game on Earth!
