designed for ZDoom and GZDoom

[About ZOMBIES: Extreme Epidemic Edition]

This is a modification of ZOMBIES TC, a pretty much ancient and outdated total conversion for Doom II.
Aside from packaging this mod up nicely for use with ZDoom, this also adds a few new features and fixs
not in the original mod, such as:

- New realistic looking sky textures! (Looks best in GZDoom)
- HORDES of zombies!  Where there was one zombie before, there are now up to ten!  Fight your way through swarms of the undead!
- Speaking of zombies, zombie enemies now act like zombies!  Good ol' slow lumbering rotting Romero-style zombies!
- Cops and unarmed civilians are now friendly!  Cops attack enemies!  Civilians....well, are pretty much zombie chow!
- Weapons redone in DECORATE!  No more choppy frames, the TE-22 shoots bullets instead of invisible plasma balls, and on top of that, a new weapon; Grenades!
- New weapon sprites by ZikShadow!
- High quality music from both the American and European cuts of Dawn of the Dead!
- When humans (friendlies, rockers) die, they now rise and join the rotting ranks of the undead!
- You can now choose to play as a cop, biker, or thug!  (Really the only differences are what you start with)
- A new inventory system!
- 8 player starts for co-op multiplayer!
- Various fixes and tweaks

Homepage                : http://members.aol.com/alving888/private/zombie.htm

Misc. Author Info       : I could tell you, but then I'd have 

                          to kill you.



Description             : The levels follows George A. Romero's great movies 

                          "Dawn of the Dead" & "Day of the Dead",

                          known to as "ZOMBIE 1 & 2"





========================================================================

Good news :             Zombies will NOT corrupt your Doom2 files in any way,

                        you will still be able to play "normal" DOOM2

                        by entering "DOOM2" and Zombie by entering

                        "ZOMBIE" from the same directory.



Bad news :              you need 3 megs of additional disk space.

========================================================================

========================================================================



HINT :          Don`t look for keycards or skullkeys they are replaced 

                by  mainkey, crowbar and the ec-card.



                if you here the helicopter engine, get into the 

                helicopter and finish this level.



                elevator`s can transport you to a new level of a building.

                

                Some DOOM tactics will not work in ZOMBIES

                Never stay at the same place for a long time,

                keep in motion. The Zombies will smell your blood

                and will find YOU.
