Brutal Monsters addon

DESCRIPTION
___________
Brutal Monsters, mod based by "bd21monstersonly".
The original release had some issues like the Revenant using ugly rockets, Sergeant and Trooper missing some sounds, missing/broken sprites and item sprites that could conflict with other mods that use them as well.

I've fixed all these and more, check the Changelog (see below) for full changes.

All credits go to their respective owners, this obviously includes Sgt_Mark_IV if you don't know.

___________
INSTALLATION
___________

Simply extract the "brutalv21_monstersonly.pk3" into your Doom Source Port directory.
I recommend the use of lcferrum's ZDL: Github.com

___________
ADDONS
___________
Information about addons:
"brutalv21_monstersonly_zandronum" made for compatibility with Zandronum. USE ONLY THIS ONE, NO OTHER.
"brutalv21_monstersonly_zombievoices" changes zombie voices to the ones heard in BrutalV21 itself, which are from Doom 3. Load below the main file.
"brutalv21_monstersonly_lights" adds dynamic light to Brutal Monsters' sprites, objects and decorates. Recommended to use with GZDoom's "lights.pk3". NOTE: Just like the default lights.pk3, this mod might cause excessive FPS drop, especially on older machines.

___________
COMPATIBILITY
___________

I recommend putting this mod at the bottom of the load order (Using ZDL can help) when playing with it.
Compatible with Zandronum, just use the "_zandronum" version, no other.

===========CHANGELOG===========

_______________
UPDATE 7
_______________

- Bosses in The Ultimate Doom were being replaced with clones with much higher stats. They were way too unbalanced with Vanilla Doom weaponry, so this feature has been removed. (In turn, the Mastermind in E3M8 isn't broken anymore)
- Added a sound that was accidentally removed from the original, the Bruiser Punch.
- Removed more leftovers; redundant code that conflicted with some mods, conflicting sprite names.
- Removed some SNDINFO data, this should make better compatibility, especially for gameplay wads like Treasuretech where DOOMGUY gets new voicelines for when he "Humpf!"
- Made it so the heads can take "Fire" damage, this will make fire weapons (such as from Final Doomer's Whitemare and Combined Arms' Blastmaster MKII) effective, although there is no bonus damage.

_______________
UPDATE 6
_______________

- VANILLA MONSTERS: The sprites for the Shotgunner and Chaingunner have been redone and fixed to be more fit to the vanilla experience.
- Brightmaps for the Baron of Hell have been restored.
- Fixed sprite incompatibility with gore. (This makes it so the Gurumaster is not a maggot in Russian Overkill)
- Removed more leftovers.
- DYNAMIC LIGHTS: Added more light parameters for the Archvile.
- DYNAMIC LIGHTS: The Vanilla Zombies were missing their attributes, that's fixed now.

_______________
UPDATE 5
_______________

- VANILLA MONSTERS: Fixed the Zombieman dropping a pistol instead of an ammoclip.
- Remade the options menu so it's only one menu with significant options.
- Fixed one of the Minigunner's death animation where the sound didn't work.
- Minor fix on the Arachnotron; previously when he looked at you ready to fire, he'd be fullbright, not anymore.
- Fixes for "Last Stand" zombies, this includes tracers getting in the way, monsters not being passable when they should be (they are a 'living corpse' after all, shootable but passable)
- Some coding changes that makes the mod more compatible with particles. (For example, High-Noon Drifter casings and smoke)
- Changed some coding on the explosive barrels. Previously, they were considered part of the "Monster" class for some reason, not anymore. (This also makes it so they spawn even with -nomonsters enabled)
- Readjusted the Dynamic Lights a bit as well as fixed an issue with Cacodemon and Arachnotron colours.
- Removed more leftovers.

_______________
UPDATE 4
_______________

- Fixed the Arachnotron. Previously, his plasma was from the original Doom, green. This caused less damage than usual and was inconsistent with the other Brutal Monsters. Now he has it back and is as dangerous as in Brutal Doom itself. "No luck, all glorious guts." to ya'll.
- Removed "Decorate.Plasma", this was a leftover from Brutal Doom that caused balance and compatibility issues.
- Fixed the vanilla doom Rocket Launcher, it now shoots default vanilla rockets as it should.
- Fixed sound for "Last Stand" zombies (previously it used Brutal Doom's "Rifle", now it's original Doom's "Pistol")
- Added addon "brutalv21_monstersonly_light".
Check readme for more details.

_______________
UPDATE 3
_______________

- Redid the code for the "Cruelty Bonuses", this should give better compatibility (For example, Trailblazer's Cruelty pickups won't flash between sprites anymore)
- Fixed a minor bug in Zandronum (Something about jumping, swimming...And imps)
- Added "Monster Fatality", this is a Brutal Doom feature that was missing in the original "Monsters Only".
Monsters are now able to brutalize other monsters (For example, Demon can swallow a Zombieman, Baron of Hell can rip a Demon apart, etc), the code for this was in the mod but the sprites were missing.

_______________
UPDATE 2
_______________
- Better compatibility with barrels. Depending on load order, you can use BD's or another mod's barrels without issues. (As an example, Trailblazer)
- Reverted barrel's brightmaps. They're back, now you can see the green glow in the darkness.
- Removed more leftovers from the Level Enhancer, should fix some compatibility issues. (For example, Insanity's Requiem)
- Removed some redundant script errors/warnings (Such as script 177)
- Removed some more redundant junk I forgot about. Was it a banana peel or the fruit?

______________
UPDATE 1
______________
- Added addons "brutalv21_monstersonly_zandronum" and "brutalv21_monstersonly_zombievoices".
Check readme for more details.

______________
INITIAL RELEASE
______________
- Removed a lot of leftovers, including deprecate Skulltag Monsters, Stealth monsters and the Impfish (Dopefish ate it up, still hungry).
- "Brutal Doom Options" is now in the Options menu, this gives much better mod compatibility.

- Fixed coding bugs referencing wrong actors/items (DoomStrengthRune, BodyRemovalThing, WeaponSpawner, etc)
- Arachnotron Firing Sprites fixed. (Previously, it was blue, now it's green)
- Mancubus's missing "Fire" sound fixed.
- Cyberdemon's missing "Fire" sound fixed.
- Zombieman (Rifle & Pistol), Shotgunner and Chaingunner have their missing sounds fixed. This includes...Reload, shotgun pump and chaingun spin.
- Revenant's Rockets have better visual quality. (The rocket is no longer half-visible, for example)

- Lost Soul can be damaged by fire, but only 50%. This should help with mods that use fire-based weaponry (Like Final Doomer's Whitemare)

- Removed 'Decoration' (brightmap) leftovers. Use separate mods for those.

- Removed brightmaps/barrelweapon, BFG10k, doom/textures, parts of "doom".
- Removed MODELS/Decoration. These are for the Level Enhancer.
- Removed GRAPHICS/TUT. These are just tutorials for how to use the Tank, unnecessary.
- Removed SPRITES/VEHICLES, ITEMS, CRITTERS, JUNK. A lot of these are unused, wasting space. "ITEMS" also made incompatibility issues.
- Removed Textures/LIQUIDS and "ANIMDEFS". Should help with compatibility.
- Removed SOUNDS/ITEMS. This restores the original sound for "Secret Found!" and Revenant's attack.
