		9	WHAT THIS IS ABOUT:
		10	-------------------
		11	This file contains updated data for the Duke3D High-Resolution Pack (HRP).
		12	It features a modified Polymost HRP for use with the Megaton Polymost renderer
		13	on top of the default Polymer HRP.
		14
		15	Basically, this means: First get the full HRP 5.3 (r5.3.565), the latest update
		16	pack (if available), then this file.
		17
		18	It is possible to run the Megaton HRP without this pack, using the Megaton
		19	command line option -hduke3d_hrp_megaton.def. But this won't work correctly in
		20	conjunction with certain mods, as well as addons like
		21	DukeDC, NWinter, and Vacation.
		22
		23
		24	HOW TO USE IT:
		25	--------------
		26
		27	[ For single player games I highly recommend using the EDuke32 executable and
		28	the normal HRP instead of Megaton. ]
		29
		30	Drop the HRP Override Pack into the gameroot folder within your Megaton
		31	installation like the HRP zipfile itself.
		32	Add
		33	-gduke3d_hrp.zip -gduke3d_megaton_hrp_override-5.3.565.zip
		34	to your command line or use the included batch file to play with the HRP
		35
		36
		37	KNOWN PROBLEMS:
		38	---------------
		39	The Megaton executable (1.3.2 stable) is based on a rather old JFDuke version
		40	and therefore doesn't support all Polymost HRP features correctly:
		41
656	leod	42	- "animtilerange" and "setuptilerange" are unsupported
639	leod	43	- the maphack system is unsupported and has been disabled in this pack
		44	- frozen models don't work correctly and have been disabled in this pack
		45	- skyboxes don't work correctly and have been disabled in this pack
656	leod	46	- pickup models and first person weapon models may (partiallly) disappear
		47	at certain viewing angles or sector boundaries.
639	leod	48
		49	There is nothing that can be done about these issues other than updating the
		50	Megaton executable's Polymost renderer code.
		51
656	leod	52	Except: The DN3DF version of this pack replaces the first person weapon models
		53	with 2D sprites from "Duke Nukem 3D: Forever" made by Wesker500 aka
		54	xMobilemux. (Golden skin for pistol pickup by Daniel262b.)
639	leod	55
656	leod	56
639	leod	57	IMPORTANT:
		58	----------
		59	This override pack is meant for the HRP v5.3 (=r5.3.565)!
		60
		61
656	leod	62	Duke in D.C. HRP (v1.62):
639	leod	63	-------------------------
		64	To avoid a messed up level stat screen, make sure that this override pack gets
		65	loaded after the DC HRP pack or use the included DC-HRP batch file.
