Misc. Author Info : Sticks to using the old "Copyright/Permissions" clause in his textfiles. Description : You might've heard of MDK, a wacky third-person shooter, released by Shiny Entertainment about 20 years ago. It was a cross between the action of Doom and humour of Earthworm Jim (made by the same folks). To my knowledge, MDK isn't moddable at all. However, Csabo, the author of the infamous XWE, added MDK support to his editor. It can't open all of its data files, but it can cope with the ones that contain the skies (.DTI format). MDK's skies are stored as BMP files in 1804x360 or 904x360 resolution, but they can be converted to the resolution and palette used by Doom and/or its ports without too much distortion. So... ever thought your map could use a new sky? Additional Credits to : the guy who created the official tutorials for Doom Builder 2 (AlysiumX on Youtube). id Software for [one of] the best games ever. Shiny for [one of] the best games ever. Everyone who made the editors I used. Mnich from the HecticHQ forums for assuring me that doing this for non-commercial purposes is legal. =========================================================================== * What is included * New levels : 1x Sounds : No Music : No Graphics : Yes, skies both 256 and 128 tall (the demo map shows only the 256 tall ones), MDK's credits Dehacked/BEX Patch : No Demos : No Other : No Other files required : DOOM2.WAD * Play Information * Game : DOOM 2 in an MBF-compatible port Map # : MAP01 Single Player : Designed for Cooperative 2-4 Player : No Deathmatch 2-4 Player : No Difficulty Settings : No * Construction * Base : MDK's skies Build Time : An hour or so Editor(s) used : XWE 1.16, Doom Builder 2, SLADE 3 Known Bugs : They might look a bit crappy, 256 colours, you know.
