Replaces Doom 2 actors to TC ones so you can play Doom 2 maps with Total Chaos's items/enemies. You'll still need Total Chaos to play with this.
Had a random idea one day after I was done going through TC's campaign. Why not try a couple of Doom 2 custom maps with TC's stuff? Went by somewhat alright so I'd figure why not put this here for others to try.
Notes:
1. Not all Doom pickups are replaced, mostly done due to the lack of equivalents. Blurspheres, computer maps, invulspheres, and radsuits are untouched. I did try replacing the radsuit with TC's one, but you can't take it off and it fails to function on all damagefloors, so it's right out.
2. Doom 2 maps are not meant to be played with TC, obviously. Balance is out of whack between enemies and pickups, Icon of Sin is literally unkillable without an explosive launcher, and this isn't counting the Cyberdemon replacer that cannot be fought with any normal means (you know the one). Keep it in mind when you're stuck on low health in a tight corridor between 16 long legs/brutes with high levels of radiation, hunger, bloodloss, a measly scissor, and some wooden handles.
3. Due to the original scripts, you'll always be moved over to TC's Decay everytime you exit Map01. Changemaps on multi-map wads will also usually result in enemies being broken, turning invisible at the start only to completely disappear later. Best played with single map wads unless you want to manually type map mapname in the console for every multi-map wads.
4. Combination of other mods might improve ambience to fit TC's. I usually play with this set up:
Yours might be different.
I would link to every one of them here, but I fear they might get outdated or obsolete. I'm sure ya'll can find them one way or another.
Changelog:
1.1
- Added Director's Cut Beta (1.15.5) entities, load in TCDC-Replacer instead.

You know you could've just linked them anyway. 😐
Good point.

Do you happen to posses "SidDoyle's Mutators" from your list? All the links are dead on that thread :(

"Had a random idea one day after finishing TC." ... So TC is done? :)
How do you use this? Loading totalchaos.pk3 and TC-REPLACER into GZDOOM just adds some pixelated stuff..
