Update to               : idgames/utils/exe_edit/doomhack.zip
Advanced engine needed  : Doom or Doom2 v1.9 (709905 bytes)
Primary purpose         : Patching DOOM's binary executable
============================================================================
Title                   : Doom-plus and Doom v1.91 hacks
Filename                : PLUS\PATCH.DAT, LONGTICS\PATCH.DAT
Release date            : December 20th, 2006
Author                  : Miguel Folatelli (aka myk)
Email Address           : myk@fibertel.com.ar (subject title: DOOM)
Misc. Author Info       : I merely prepared these particular patches
                          
Description             : The patch in PLUS incorporates e6y's hacks to
                          raise Doom's limits so that it can load large or
                          complex levels, the one in LONGTICS loads the
                          changes discovered by cph to enable v1.91 demos.
                          Visit the Doom-plus and v1.91 sites for more info:

                          e6y (http://www.geocities.com/e6y/doom.html)
                          v1.91 (http://www.doom2.net/doom2/doomp191/)

                          To install a hack place PATCH.COM and DOOM.EXE in
                          the corresponding subdirectory and read text file
                          contained therein.

                          Note that these patches are cumulative (you can
                          apply them both to a single copy of Doom), and may
                          in turn be combined with DeHackEd patches.

Additional Credits to   : Andrey Budko (aka e6y) for raising Doom's limits,
                          and Colin Phipps for engineering the v1.91 tweak,
                          as well as the rest of the v1.91 team.
