Description of the Modification
-------------------------------
     This modifies the super shotgun so that it spews forth
poisonous clouds of green gas.  The clouds fly slowly and vanish
after four seconds, so its range is short.  Each cloud can inflict
over 150 points of damage.  The cloud can partially penetrate
walls and damage targets who hide behind them.  It is easy to
damage yourself with this weapon so be careful.  A bio-suit
provides immunity to the cloud.  Each cloud costs two shells.


How to Install the Modification
-------------------------------
A new progs.src is included.

qc files included are:
  * breath.qc     * weapons.qc

How to Use:
* If you don't have a QuakeC compiler, get one now!
   QC106PAC.ZIP is a great QuakeC package.

* Create a subdirectory called BREATH inside the QUAKE directory.

* Create a PROGS subdirectory inside the BREATH directory.

* Place all the qc and src files and the compiler in the PROGS
   subdirectory.  Overwrite the original weapons.qc with the new
   one in this zip if necessary.

* Compile a new progs.dat.

* Change to the QUAKE directory and type 'Quake -game breath'.
