     [1] INTRODUCTION
     ----------------

      Hello all Doom fans of the world, here is the latest release of
      Doom LEGACY project by Team Legacy.

      Well, if you are reading this you probably know by now that the
      gods at IdSoftware have released the sources of the greatest game
      on earth : Doom !!

      Of course a lot of projects have started around the sources since
      about January 1998, and Doom LEGACY is competing to be the best of
      the choices!

      We have always dreamed of Doom sources being released, and all the
      features that we'd like to add. Since Doom1 was out we are fans
      of deathmatching. Don't ask us why we like it more than Duke Nukem
      or other clones, we like the atmosphere of Doom and its like that!

      This new version of Doom is not commercial anymore, but you should
      have the original Doom data (either doom.wad, doom2.wad, tnt.wad or
      plutonia.wad), that comes with the original Doom, Doom2, Final Doom,
      Ultimate Doom software.

      If you have problems running this version or want more informations,
      first: READ THE FAQ. If the FAQ doesn't help, mail us at:
      doomlegacy@newdoom.com

      We hope that this new version brings you a lot of enjoyment,
      especially for the deathmatch fans out there.

      Have much fun!!

     [1-1]: What's new
     =================

         See whatsnew.txt for the latest changes.

     [1-2]: What's coming
     ====================

         We have planned other features. See our site:
         http://legacy.newdoom.com

     -------------------------------
     [2] INSTALLATION OF DOOM LEGACY
     -------------------------------

      Doom Legacy is a addon of one of the idSofware games : Doom,
      Doom II, Ultimate Doom, Final Doom or Doom Sharware.
      So it should be installed in the directory where you have
      one of the previous version of Doom.

      It won't replace any existing file from the original Doom.

      Doom Legacy will run in the mode of the original Doom version
      where it is installed. That is, if you have installed Legacy in
      Ultimate Doom directory, it will act like Ultimate Doom, pro-
      viding 4 episodes, and no super shotgun.

      Under Windows, you have a additionnal launcher, to configure
      Doom Legacy. In game mode menu you can configure the game between
      Doom, Doom2, Ultimate Doom, ... Just put the corresponding wad.

      See "-iwad" option for more.

     [2-1]: Setting up the game
     ==========================

         Legacy doesn't use SETUP.EXE anymore, it uses 'config.cfg' now.
         There won't be anymore problems with the original Doom config
         file 'default.cfg' : it will never be changed.

         To configure your original Doom, use SETUP.EXE.

         Under windows you can use the launcher to configure and launch
         more easely Doom Legacy.

     [2-2]: Setting up the controls
     ==============================

         Setting up the controls, mouse and joystick, video mode is done
         while in the game, using the main game menus : Setup Controls,
         Video Options, Game Options. You can change all game settings
         at any time during the game, forget about SETUP.EXE !!

         The mouse will be activated as default, to disable it, change
         the 'use_mouse' variable in the console (see console.txt)

         The joystick will not be used as default, set the 'use_joystick'
         variable at the console, to one of the joystick types supported
         by Legacy (up to 10button joysticks + hat, see console.txt)

     [2-3]: Setting up the sound
     ===========================

         WINDOWS: The sound is autodetected using DirectX so make sure
         -------  you card wortk well with DirectX and it legacy will
                  us it.

                  Additionally the Legacy could utilize the hardware 3D sound
                  for making more realistic sound environment.

                  Specify -ds3d command line parameter to use generic
                  3D sound driver (DirectSound 3D). This driver are suitable
                  for most 3D sound chips.

         DOS:
         ---

         The sound and music card is auto-detected at the game startup.

         If you don't get any sound in Legacy, check that the BLASTER
         variable is set. Type 'set' at the dos prompt (or dosbox under
         Windows) : do you see a line like 'BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 ...' ?
         If not, run the installation of your soundcard for Dos mode,
         it will usually modify your autoexec.bat so that the BLASTER
         variable will be set. See the FAQ.TXT for more.

         If the BLASTER variable is set, but you still don't hear any
         sounds, or the sounds are not right, then edit the SOUND.CFG
         file, and manually set your type of soundcard, see there for
         more.

     [2-4]: Tuning up the mouse speed
     ================================

         The main Options menu still limit the mouse sensitivity value
         to a 'normal range', but you can now increase this value even
         more using the console variables 'mousesens' and 'mlooksens'.

         If you used to edit default.cfg for the mouse sensitivity,
         forget about it and use the console!

     [2-5]: the Setup Controls menu
     ==============================

         You don't need to use the SETUP.EXE now, there's that cool
         'Setup Controls' menu.

         Using this menu is pretty straight forward, you can bind actions
         to one or two keys, like in all decent Game.

         When controleperkey cvar is "On", a single key can be set to
         multiple actions, eg: go backward and 'use' at the same time.

         To CLEAR the keys attached to a control, use the BACKSPACE key.

         To setup the DOUBLE CLICK for mouse/joystick buttons : enter the
         click one time, so that it displays, eg: 'MOUSEBUTTON1'. Then
         re-enter the click a second time, and it will transform into a
         dbl-click, eg: 'MOUSEBUTTON1' will become 'DOUBLEMOUSE1'.

         You can use double-clicks for any joystick/mouse button, and you
         can even attach any action to it, eg: strafe left/right with mouse
         buttons, it works. Just enter the button two times like said before.

     [2-6]: Using a Second mouse
     ===========================

         Doom Legacy supports a second mouse on the SERIAL port, to allow
         both players in split-screen mode to play with a mouse.
         This mouse should be MS-Compatible or Logithech.
         The menu related to the secondary mouse is in the player two
         configuration menu (from the mutliplayer menu).
         Plug the mouse in one of your serial ports (COM1/COM2/COM3/COM4)
         then go to the menu and set FIRST mouse2port to the port you have
         plugged the mouse in, then switch "use secondary mouse" to On.
         It should work :).

         Problems :
         ----------
          - Under Windows, the secondary mouse MUST NOT be detected by windows.
            Make sure it is not connected to your computer until Windows
            has finished to startup, then connect it. If you let the secondary
            mouse connected during the boot, WIndows will detect it and will
            want to install drivers for it, which is what you DON'T want! :)
            Doom Legacy handles itself the secondary mouse, without
            the need of an additional mouse driver.
          - If the secondary mouse is not detected by Doom Legacy, and you
            are sure the mouse is well connected to the serial port, toggle
            "use secondary mouse" to 'force' in the game menu. This will
            skip the detection and assume the mouse is there.

         Note:
         -----
         - Here we considere you have already one mouse, your abitualy mouse
           and then you add one other mouse in the serial port. Your normal
           mouse is used with there driver. Therefore you can use wathever
           mouse you whan (USB, PS/2, ....) for your first mouse. But use a
           serial mouse for the second mouse.

     -----------------------------
     [3] ADDITIONS TO DEATHMATCHES
     -----------------------------

     [3-1]: Shooting up and down
     ===========================

         There's nothing changed, except of course a totally new
         deathmatch experience.

         About the BFG : the bfg ball can be fired up or down, but
         the invisible rays that spray from you are totally independent of
         your aiming. The invisible BFG rays have always 'autoaim', they're
         not dependent of your aim. Let's be clear: apart from being able
         to shoot the BIG BFG BALL up or down, the side-effect of the BFG
         is like before.

     [3-2]: Auto aim toggle
     ======================

         We wanted to keep the compatibility with the older Doom gameplay,
         but we needed also to go forward and bring some more depth to the
         deathmatches. On of these steps, is going for the manual-aiming.

         You may feel like it's unbalanced if some people use the autoaim,
         as they don't have to do the effort of aiming right, and others
         don't use it and do their best to aim up and down right...

         NEW since Legacy v1.2 : with allowautoaim (see console.txt) , you can
             disable autoaiming, that is, impose manual aim to all players
             in a network game, use with caution!!

     [3-3]: Weapon changes
     =====================

         We didn't dare of course change the existing weapons functionality!

         You may appreciate however, the fact that you can remap every
         weapon to any key, in the Setup Controls menu. Since you can map two
         keys per 'control', you can keep the original keys '1'-'8' for the
         weapons, and add a shortcut to your preferred ones. eg: '5' and 'r'
         for rockets...

         New weapons are planned in the future releases: probably a grenade
         nearly like Quake1 ones. Maybe an addon for the rocket launcher to
         transform it into a 'guided rockets' launcher... like the Revenant's
         fireballs.

     [3-4]: New cheats
     =================

         'idcd##' : Will work only if MSCDEX driver is loaded.
                    Similar to the 'idcmus##', but for CD Audio tracks.
                    Example : idcd02 start cd track 2.

         'idfly'  : Fly around levels, using 'jump' key to get altitude.

    |[3-5] Heretic support
    |=====================
    |
    |    Yes! Legacy now can handle heretic.wad as a main wad file, so stating
    |    legacy with heretic.wad in same directory or launching it with "-iwad
    |    heretic.wad" this set legacy in 'heretic state'.
    |
    |    What we have do is added heretic support to doom engine so the result
    |    isn't exactely heretic engine, so we hope there is no mush trouble
    |    running heretic wad and modifications. For this reason old demo
    |    playback cannot be suppoted.
    |
    |    Anyway now heretic as inherited from legacy new feature : better
    |    network support, opengl, boom support, ... We have also get some
    |    stuff from heretic and that can used by doom was like ambient
    |    sounds, we can now switch 'weapons switch' with missile, legacy
    |    can use "fontbxxx" lumps for the big font graphics....

     [3-6] Opengl compatibility
     ==========================

     Card             Driver     Observations
      ATI RageFury     ?????      Work fine
      S3 ProSavage     4.12.01    Work fine
      Voodoo Banshee   1.04.01    Work only in 16 bit mode
      Voodoo 5500      1.04.00    work fine

     [4] THE CONSOLE
     ---------------

      Check 'console.txt' documentation for more about the console.

     ------------------------------
     [5] NETWORK GAME (MULTIPLAYER)
     ------------------------------

     IMPORTANT NOTE!

      NEW, since Legacy v1.2, the network part of Doom has been totally
           rewritten. It now uses a better transfer method for the packets,
           (which is usually faster), and also implements a basic
           Client/Server model, where some critical game options are
           changeable only by the server in multiplayer games.

           Since the network communication is faster, we have upped
           the number of players to 32 !!

     [5-0]: Network under Windows and Linux
     ======================================

         The win32/Linux version of legacy no more work with external
         program like sersetup, ipxsetup, dm, doomatic, hx8, .... This
         version use directely winsock/socket api. So the only way to
         play in network is to use the -server and -connect parameter.
         Or use the launcher who has beautiful interfase that will
         translate your wishes in command line.
         You can also use the build in multiplayer menu that allow you
         to connect to server and create server.

         The follow is ONLY for dos version.

     [5-1]: Quick-start of a 5-32 players network game (DOS only)
     ============================================================

         To start a game with more than 4 players, we recommend using
         Doomatic. Doomatic is a utility written by us before the source
         release, we wanted to create a deathmatch launcher with all the
         features that we always needed.

         It replaces IPXSETUP and DM. Just read the 'QUICK START' sec-
         tion of DOOMATIC.TXT file to get started with Doomatic.

         Since we've added more than 4 players support into Doom LEGACY,
         we have modified DOOMATIC to allow starting games with up to
         32 players.

         Make sure that the map you use has enough deathmatch starts!

         Search on internet Doom sites, there has been a number of wads
         specifically made for the new Doom ports with more than 4 players.

         Cooperative play with more than 4 players should work with map
         using the JDS cooperative player starts.

     [5-2]: the new Client/Server model
     ==================================

         The network code has been totally rewritten, here are the
         main changes:

         - Doom Legacy allow player to join while in game. No need to
           restart the game to add a new player ! For Dos user this is not
           allowed with old drivers it work only with doomatic and with
           -server and -connect parameters.

         - Doom Legacy version 1.2 and higer supports up to 32 players.

         - The speed is now dependent from the Server. if the server looses
           frames, that is: if it runs too slow, all the other players will
           experience the slow down, or 'choppyness'.

           Thus, make sure that the server's machine runs smooth, example:

           a P100 running the game at 320X200 may be very smooth. while
           a PII 300 at 1024x768 will slow down the network. Why? simply
           because while the server is occupied drawing his screen, he can't
           send or receive any packets, and thus the other players are slowed
           down at the speed of the server (well, now it is possible that
           a PII 300 is very smooth at 1024x768.. but you get the idea).

         - The memory is very important so 16 Mb is a MINIMUM for a server.
           Why? Because a server with not enough memory will often load
           data from the disk, and this will probably slow down the game.

         - Don't forget to put a very good disk cache, like 4 Mb or more.
           A good disk cache will reduce the loading from the server, thus
           reduce possible slow downs.

         - The server can kick any player ouf of the game. The player will
           be returned to the title screen.

         - Consistancy failure now kicks only the player who was not
           'up-to-date', but not the others.

         - Parameters -left -right came back (using 3 screens for left,right
           and front views).

         - Most critical game variables are send to all the players when they
           are changed by the server, and only the server can change them.

           Examples are 'allowjump', 'respawnitemtime', 'deathmatch', ...

         - The new possibilities are barely demonstrated in Legacy v1.2 :
           we can now make any console command work on the network, so there
           are very good things ahead!

         For MS-DOS, the new system is still compatible with IPXSETUP and
         SERSETUP, so you can use these to play games up to 4 players.

         To play with up to 32 players, use DOOMATIC.

         Note that DOOMATIC was created by us long before the release of the
         Doom sources, and it works with the orginal Doom, and with most
         other ports, too. We didn't create DOOMATIC specifically for Legacy,
         but we updated it so that it could start games with more than 4
         players for Legacy.

     [5-3]: Setting up the SERVER (DOS ONLY)
     =======================================

         There is no interface for now.

         The server is the player 0, which is the GREEN player in DOOMATIC.

         Note that the GREEN player in Doomatic, is not necessarily Green
         later in the game : the server can choose any color in the
         Multiplayer menu. Legacy doesn't use the colors from Doomatic,
         but will recognise the Green player of Doomatic as the server.

         In other words, you can't choose who is the server using IPXSETUP.

         We reassure you: this is a hack, and we will add a '-server'
         parameter as soon as possible to determine explicitly the server.

         The color you choose in Doomatic is useful for the original Doom
         game only : it was a key feature of Doomatic, to choose the colour
         you wanted to be instead of getting always the same color from
         IPXSETUP. It became obsolete with Legacy, as you can choose your
         color in the game itself.

         The SERVER has more rights in the game, and no, it can't cheat.
         It can change the game parameters like 'repspawnitem','respawn-
         monsters', ect. and can Kick players. Therefore, choose the server
         with attention.

         NOTE that there is no 'dedicated' server for now, everybody in
         a multiplayer game and even single player, is always a server
         and a client at the same time. That is: in single player, you
         can slow down yourself, when you loose frames, usually in the
         higher resolutions, you will experience a small 'lag' like on
         a 'choppy' multiplayer game.

         See CONSOLE.TXT for more about the server & multiplayer commands.

     [5-4]: the return of -left/-right
     =================================

         We have restored the -left and -right command-line parameters,
         that allowed in the earlier versions of Doom, to play using
         3 monitors: one for the front view, one for the left, and one
         for the right.

         Here is how it works:

         Use DOOMATIC and create a game on the machine that will display
         the 'front view'. Make sure it has the GREEN player color
         (in Doomatic, not in Legacy). Set '-left' and '-right' in the
         local parameters of Doomatic, for the other two machines.
         That is : the 'left view' machine has '-left' in the local
         parameters of Doomatic, the 'right view' machine has '-right'.

         Join the game with the other two computers, and start the game.

         This will work only for SINGLE player, but the player will have
         a very wide view!

     [5-5]: How to play with TCP/IP
     ==============================

    |    You can use The launcher to start such game. or use the build in
    |    multiplayer menu that have 'create server' and 'connect server'
    |    option.

      BY HAND
      -------

         Someone will be the server, it is usually the fastest computer.

         A client NEVER slows down the server, but a slow server
         SLOWS DOWN ALL THE CLIENTS!

       * The server types:

         > legacy -server <# of computers>

    |    The server will wait until #computer are connected and then
    |    start the game. This is like the old way to start a game. But
    |    is better fair fight since all player start at the same time
    |    and same weapons. Of course other computers can also join latter.
    |
    |    or
    |
    |    > legacy -server
    |    This start server and don't wait any computers. And Start
    |    directely the game. Other player can join latter.
    |
    |

       * Clients are the other players who join in the server:

         > legacy -connect

         or

         > legacy -connect
           This will auto-detect a server on a LAN. This only works when
           computers are directly connected. If you play through internet,
           the server can NOT be auto-detected, and you must specify it's
           IP address.

         Example A, 3 players on a LAN:

           player 1 (the server)
           > legacy -server 3

           player 2 (client)
           > legacy -connect

           player 3 (client)
           > legacy -connect

         Example B, 2 players, through internet:

           player 1 (the server)
           > legacy -server 2

           player 2 (client)
           > legacy -connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

         Example C, a 3 player game, with _TWO_ computers, one is split-screen:

           player 1 (the server)
           > legacy -server 3

           player 2 and 3 (2 clients on the same computer)
           > legacy -splitscreen -connect

         You don't need to put all parameters on the client side like :
         -deathmatch, -warp xx, -respawn, -fast, etc because the server
         automatically sends those to all clients upon connection.

    |    Also the -file parameter is no needed anymore. The server will send
    |    all file needed by the client, let's say rather the client will
    |    download it from the server. But of course client will first check if
    |    file is not in the directory or subdirectory.

         Use '-notime' to disable file date check on clients. Normally
         the game will warn you if a client has a file loaded by the
         server, but with a different date. Clients should have the exact
         same version of the files added by the server.

         You want to know some things : you need a good ping value, perfect
         is less than 30, more than this will be very unplayable, because
         there is not, for the moment, code to reduce the latency between
         command entered at keyboard and command execution.

         In other words, Doom Legacy doesn't use 'interpolation' to make
         you believe like the game is 'smooth' when it is not in reality.

     [5-6]: Playing Legacy over modem
     ================================

     WIN32
     -----

         You must emulate a tcp/ip network using your modem. You can do
         this using DUN form Microsoft. Read the faq for more.

     MS-DOS ONLY
     -----------

         DOOMATIC, doesn't support modem play as today.

         There are several problems with the original SERSETUP. And with most
         of their equivalents like SER7-5 and others.

         We no more support the original SERSETUP and recommend using 'HX8'.

         We have currenlty only received positive feedback with 'HX8' :
         people have succesfully played Doom Legacy in serial, even with
         8 players using 'daisy-chain'. It was told to us that using more
         than 2 players and modem is feasible too with 'HX8', but it is
         a little more difficult to set up.

         We will appreciate more feedback to be sure it works fine. Send
         us your positive or negatve experiences with this.

         HX8 works also with Hexen and other Id games, you'll find it here:

         ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/idgames/utils/serial/hx8.zip

     [5-7]: Network parameters
     =========================

         The following game parameters are changeable only by the SERVER,
         using the console and menu:

         (they also work in single player since in single player you are
          the server AND the client)

          allowjump, allowautoaim,
          respawnitem, respawnitemtime,
          respawnmonsters, respawnmonstertime,
          gravity, bloodtime, solidecorps,
          fraglimit, deathmatch
    |     since 1.29 there is mush more parameter so it is not listed here.

         Of course all the player parameters works in network :
           name, color, autoaim, weaponpref, originalweaponswitch.

         See CONSOLE.TXT for more about multiplayer commands.

     [5-8]: HOW DOES LEGACY HANDLE THE MULTIPLAYER STARTS ?
     ======================================================

        Doom LEGACY supports the extended player starts defined by
        the JDS group : 4001 to 4060 for player 5 to player 64.

        Those player starts are for cooperative, looks like JDS
        wanna have 64 players cooperative games !

        Doom LEGACY supports up to 64 deathmatch starts, but the
        original Doom games used up to 10 dm starts.

        Thus, for compatibility with the existing maps, Legacy
        will use the player starts if all the deathmatch starts
        in a map are occupied. If all the player starts are
        occupied (including extended ones), then a dm start
        chosen randomly will be used.. and players might get
        stuck together, but this will happen normally only
        at the beginning of games with maps with few dm starts.

     [5-9]: The new intermision screen
     =================================

        FRAGS  : the usual frags rankings

        BUCHOLZ: a chess scoring system: you earn more points,
           when you frag a good player. That is, a player that
           has a lot of frags at the end of the game. This is
           more balanced that the original frags system, because
           you can do less frags, but on good players, while
           in the original system, 'newbies' players could
           score as much frags between them. Also a good player
           won't earn a lot of points if he goes for easy targets,
           so he'll better choose an challenging enough target.
           Chess players will know this system (Boris is a very
           good chess player :)

           Seriously if F is the frag table like player i have fraged
           player j F[i][j] times. The total frags of a player i is
           F[i][1]+F[i][2]+ ... + F[i][32] we can call this Total[i]
             there bucholz of a player i is
             F[i][1]*Total[1] + F[i][2]*Total[2] + ... + F[i][32]*Total[32]

        INDIVIDUAL: the players are all compared 1 to 1, when a
           player wins he earns 3 points, if they draw they each
           get 1 point, then all the points are added and the
           winner is the one with the more points. This was
           suggested by Cristian Romero (romero-c@usa.net).
           Is is not perfect, but is already interesting enough:
           think of it more 'individual'. You have to make more frags
           compared to each other player to earn points. So you will
           want to go on players that you can make more frags, and
           forget about the ones which have already too much frags
           compared to you. Go for the victories, more than the frags.

        DEATHS: this ranking shows the players who have died the
           most!!

     [5-10]: Firewall handling
     =========================

        Legacy use udp port 5029 only and can except message from any
        port so it work perfectely with NAT (Network Address Translation)
        and such (like IPmaskareding of linux).

    |   Since the ip of the computer behind the firwall isn't routable
    |   the server cannot be join by any player. (Except if you are
    |   familiar with IpAutoforward funtionalityu of linux).

     ------------------------
     [6] COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS
     ------------------------

      There's a new environment variable 'DOOMWADDIR' that you can set
      to the path where the original Doom and LEGACY Doom wad files are.
      This enable to run LEGACY from any place on your harddrive, by
      default, LEGACY searches its wad files in "." dir (the current dir).

      Here's the new parameters that you can use from the command prompt.

      In DOOMATIC, you can add command-line options as a server in the
      Server menu's Add Parameters, or in the Prefs menu 'Local parms'.
      (the Local parms will be used only on your side, while the server
       parms are sent to everybody)

      Additional parameters info:
      ---------------------------

      +

          You can put all console command at command line, Legacy will
          execute it first.

      -file  ** DEHACKED SUPPORT **

          Has been enhanced to load dehacked files too! It makes
          it much more easy to use deahcked patches in multiplayer,
          for example:

          -file gfx.wad snd.wad patch.deh

      -teamplay
      -teamskin

          Similar to the good old '-deathmatch', this activates team
          play by either color (teamplay) or skin (teamskin).

      -nocd

          Disable checking for the cd driver. In case you have a faulty
          cd driver, this will prevent troubles. The functionality is
          equivalent to -nomusic and -nosound.

      -dehacked  [dehfile.deh] [ect...]
      -deh

          DooM LEGACY supports the dehacked patches... of course its
          now done a more subtle way : you just specify the dehacked
          patch file at the command prompt, no need to patch the exe!

          You can specify multiple .deh files, and they will all be
          executed, on the order you have put them on the command line.

    |     Since 1.25 dehacked file can be loaded using -file option.
    |     Also since the 1.30, legacy can load dehacked lump in a wad file.

      -mb

          If you run out of memory, or want more memory, this sets the
          number of megabytes of mem to allocate at Doom startup.

    |     If no parameter is set the memory is autodetected and get
    |     from 6 to 20 Mb.

      -width  -height

          If you like the pain, you can set the screen size at the
          command line instead of using the new 'Video Mode' menu.

          Doom LEGACY will switch to 320x200 if it can't find a
          corresponding mode. So remember to load your Univbe or
          equivalent for extra video modes.

      -ds3d

          Tell legacy to use Direct 3D Sound for the sound, you will
          get mush better sound position in 3d and better sound effects.

      -opengl
      -3dfx

          Tell legacy to switch to use hardware accelerated 3d card to
          draw the game, this is quite big differance in the rendering
          engine.

          opengl use the opengl driver povided by the operating system
          3dfx use glide api work only on voodoo shipset of 3dfx this
          is highly optimized to use voodoo function (only 16bit).

      The rest is like Doom2 original, all the standard parameters
      are still functional.

     [7-5] Dehacked patch note
     =========================

         We don't check for the dehacked patch version, we added support for the
         patches version 6, it should run ok with (not too) old patches.

         If you have a problem with the version of the patch, try to convert it.
         Just load the .deh file into a recent version of Dehacked (3.0),
         and then save it again. It will then be saved as a text-file, that
         Legacy will be able to use.

         All text changes are supported, you can edit the .deh manually and
         replace strings by larger strings than the original Doom, it works.
         Sprite renaming works too, well, pretty anything :)

         If you can't run your dehacked patch with Legacy, please mail us!
