------------------------------- BERNIE'S SILLY MOD -----------------------------------
**************************************************************************************
---- FOR USE WITH BLOOD2 : THE CHOSEN BY MONOLITH PRODUCTIONS ------------------------
**************************************************************************************


This mod is made primarily for experimentational uses, and is not really meant
to make the game 'better' as such.

Here are the changes that have taken place..........

~ New skins for all weapons apart from assault rifle, minigun and deathray.
~ Weapon animations sped up/slowed down on various models.
~ Mac10 has had it's modes switched - LMB is now the slow/accurate fire, and 
RMB is the rapid fire (like the minigun in Unreal). When you only have one, it fires
slow/accurate.
~ Akimbo berettas are each held in a different position - the right is held up, 
while the left is held normally. When you only have 1, this is always held up.
~ Deathray beam is now red.
~ Assault rifle grenades have a new skin.
~ * NEW WEAPON *
 The howitzer model has been replaced with the BULLGUT from Shogo : MAD. I had to
modify a few animations, and reposition some things to make it look reasonable. It
looks a bit wierd, but it works. It fires howitzer shells in fast bursts of 4 - this
is great for crowd control! Don't use alt fire, because it freezes in mid-animation. 
~ Most ammo powerups have new novelty skins.
~ Almost all enemies have new skins.
~ Soul drudge has a new impact animation - they now do a backward somersault when
shot in the head. They also hit you faster, and get up faster.
~ Shikari is faster, and now has a new flying somersault attack.
~ New explosion skins for most explosions, including changed zeolot magic.
~ Got rid of that nasty black hole model - black holes now just give off purple light.
~ The orb now mutates into the disk of death when it is thrown. The disk spins like
a frisby, and the middle rotates.
~ All civilians have new, more stylish skins.
~ The hands now have "FUCK OFF" tatooed on them.
~ The Life leech has a lovely treble 6 on it's forehead.
~ New Loading screens, menu screens and chapter screens with gore and stuff.
~ New 'burnt' skin.
~ New crosshair.
~ I have the changed the PV_ image for the facesucker worms. When one of them sucks on
to your face, you are in for a surprise. You'll see what I mean. Adults only please!

NOTE : ALL WEAPON AND WEAPON SKIN ONLY APPLY WHEN PLAYING AS CALEB

WHAT I TRIED BUT ABANDONED.....

~ Changing "LH_" models, so that you could hold, for example, a pistol in one
hand and an uzi in the other etc. The would have kicked ass, but although B2 uses
different right-handed and left-handed models, both models use the same skin. Therefore, 
both weapons in the akimbo, regardless of the model being used, have to use the same
skin. Which looks shit basically. Maybe someone with decent C++ and B2SRC knowledge could
implement this into a mod. Never mind. Maybe next time.........

INSTALLATION

Put berntech.rez into your Blood 2 directory (eg. C:\Blood2), inside another folder called
custom (eg. C:\Blood2\custom\). Start up B2, and then click on 'Customize'. Highlight
'berntech.rez' in the lefthand pane, and click on 'add'. You should now see berntech.rez in the
right hand pane. Click OK, then load up B2. Enjoy. 

If you have any other mods installed aswell as berntech.rez, some things might get messed up.
Before playing this mod, I recommend that you temporarily unload any other rez files. 

By the way, this mod is fairly low quality compared to Darkact by Guzz or Tren's FXEnhancer. Be
sure that you have downloaded these mods, cos they kick @$$.
