0.> Introduction

Ok so this started out as a little weapons mod and grew to this heap of insanity that you have before you.
Theres probably some bugs here and there (see known bugs section) and there was more slated for this.
But of course due to time constraints and other issues here's what you get......
basically 14 all new guns....
27 player characters to choose from....(technically 23 if yer just counting the new characters)
and a handful of new and revamped maps...
Took about 5 weeks for us to throw this together and quite frankly i've grown tired of it and I am ready to play lol.
Other features include ....
Players now move alot faster than the original fear..gives it more of a quake feel ;)
players can up their health to 250 and their armor to 250....
So without further prattling..... goto the installation section...install this heap...and get to playing !!!

BUT BEFORE YOU PLAY CHECK THE KNOWN BUGS SECTION
--------------------------

1.> INSTALLATION

Manual Instructions
--------------------
A.> open the contents of the Bastard_Mod.rar file (i'm assuming you already did if your reading this ;))

B.> Extract the contents of the Bastard_Mod.rar file into the following directory for F.E.A.R. Combat....
C:\Program Files\Sierra\FEARCombat
For F.E.A.R. Retail users........
C:\Program Files\Sierra\FEAR

c.> You will notice five files.....
An arch file called BM
A Batch File called BM
A Batch File called ServerBM
A Text Filt called Bastard_TDM
And a archcfg file called BM

D.> To run the mod double click the Batch File BM, I suggest you make a shortcut for it and place it on your desktop.

E.> Please have your cd key ready, this mod creates a new user profile and will ask for it before you can join
multiplayer games.

F.> To host a multiplayer game you may do so thru the host options in game or you may use the ServerBM.Bat to host a dedicated
server.
To host a dedicated server you will need to place the Text File Bastard_TDM in the following directory........

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Monolith Productions\FEARCombat\ServerOptions

This is basically a server options file you can select to run the maps found within this mod under TDM conditions.
Feel free to use this server option file as a base to setup your own maps lists etc.

PLEASE NOTE THIS MOD WILL MORE THAN LIKELY CRASH USING THE FEAR STAND ALONE SERVER,
use either the fear retail dedicated server or the fear combat dedicated server as these have been tested to work fine while
the stand alone crashes.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.> MAPS

Ok some of you will recognize these maps and some are new...
nothing spectacular here mostly updated stuff.

1.> Abomination - A revamp of Damnation, contains AI and other junk
you can now play Pac-Man in the arcade.
You can also activate "team helper" AI's by throwing the switches in the lower
portion of the map..then activateing the switch in your teams "prison" area.

2.> Ascension - A rework of the original Halo map complete with bastard guns.

3.> Bastard Arena - a rework of F.E.A.R. Arena, the COOP mode has returned with AI as well

4.> DOA - a very small.... 1vs1 maybe 2vs2 map

5.> invalidgameassets - this was a joke map made long ago....it took maybe 5 minutes to create
and should support a 3 on 3 match

6.> Mega_Polis - This is a big map.... but once you learn it it'll be a breeze

7.> Pain - An oldy but a goody..

8.> Tester - This is the map that contains all the weapons and is just what its named a Tester

9.> Q1DM4 - just a quake 1 map thrown in for fun

10.> FearBall - sigh.... again another map throw in, however now you can kill the players weee?

11.> Infested - a reworked version to include the new weapons...

12.> Island Wars - A Halo universe map

13.> Blood Gulch - nuff said

14.> ORBANUS - A Big wide open map with jump pads and weapons everywhere.

All the maps support all game types 'cept for FearBall,island wars,ORBANUS and Pain , they are TDM maps

As far as Additional Content Folder maps, they should work..However we all know and love invalidgameassets
and I dunno...just test em and see.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.> KNOWN BUGS

1.> when you select a character keep that character unless you die... DO NOT change characters while in game and alive.
causes weapon issues....and sometimes might even crash F.E.A.R.
