Misc. Author Info : Makes maps for Doom
Description : Resources from the Ancient Aliens megawad.
aa-tex.wad contains textures and flats.
aa-mons.wad includes the custom monsters and
custom decorations used in Ancient Aliens.
playpal-aatex.png is the Ancient Aliens palette.
You can use it as a base to create your own
palettes with additional ranges: it should be
clear which ranges are not native to Doom and
can be changed to whatever you want.
phu_big.bmp is a bitmap font to be used with
Bitmap Font Writer.
alnarch1.xcf is a GIMP image file for the arch
textures. You can use it to make variants of
the arches with alternate background textures
(a different set of bricks, for instance).
See aa-tex-info.txt for some additional
instructions if you're unfamiliar with working
with custom palettes. You'll need to follow the
included steps to import and reindex some IWAD
resources into your project.
