UPDATE Patch-- Fixed a weapon spawn issue. This is a Total Conversion of weapons and monsters for Doom 1 and Doom 2. It's inspired by Legend of Zelda. No Nintendo resources were used in this production. Friendly to most maps. Link to the Doom is an overhaul of Medieval Doom. Practically everything has been overhauled in one form or another, and custom monsters and weapons have been added from Realm 667 and tweaked by myself to give the best feel possible. The evil Ganohn has taken control of "insert whatever" and it is your task to fight off the army of evil full of Moblins and other strange magical enemies. You have 5 classes to choose from.

Link to the Doom
===========================================================================
This is a Total Conversion of weapons and monsters for Doom 1 and Doom 2. It's inspired by Legend of Zelda.
No Nintendo resources were used in this production. Friendly to most maps.
Link to the Doom is an overhaul of Medieval Doom. Practically everything has been overhauled in one form or another,
and custom monsters and weapons have been added from Realm 667 and tweaked by myself to give the best feel possible.
The evil Ganohn has taken control of "insert whatever" and it is your
task to fight off the army of evil full of Moblins and other strange magical enemies. You have 5 classes to choose from.
AUTHOR NOTE: Many comments have addressed the concept of classes in this mod sharing the same weapons. Each class has a unique starter set listed below.
CLASSES AND STARTING WEAPONS:
Linc- Magic Shield + Sword: A sword that swings in a wide arc. The altfire does a short charge up animation AND CAN BE HELD by holding Altfire before it releases a blistering sword combo followed by an explosion wave. No ammo needed. While SHIELD is showing you are INVINCIBLE.
Princess: Starts with Hylean Wand and Hylean Bow. Melee weapon is a Mace.
Thief- +25% MOVE SPEED. Twin Axe: Thief default weapon. No Alt Fire. Melee only.
Wizard- Starts with Magic Gauntlets: Primary fires a melee attack that also vampire Health back into you. . Altfire is triple burtst Magic Missile that uses Mana. Starts with 300 Mana.
Slayer- The cool guy. Doom ReBUVRO weapon animations. All Ammos are per LTTD amounts so Less AMMO! Starts with ALL of his weapons. Stupid dimension rifts brought it about. Can use only the KingSlayer, Hylean Bow and Bombs besides the vanilla Doom weapon set.

Edit it all you want because that is what I did. This is a labor of love that I built
