Description             : This DOOM II deathmatch wad with a Stargate theme.   
                          It should be used with deathmatch 2.0 
                          Includes a new sky texture (Non-repeating) 
                          New Doors, and a Really cool animated Gate. 
                          All weapons, one time chance at the BFG. 
                          This is not a huge level the large file size comes  
                           from the new gfx's and music.      
                          All testing has gone great this level is a blast.

Subject: New Pallette in Heretic? 

- -> Does anybody out there know how to get any of the texture viewing 
- -> utilities to load the Heretic pallette so that the colors are mapped 
- -> correctly? 

Use DEUTEX to extract graphics. Load it into neopaint and save the 
pallette as heretic.pal.
