Title : DEHACKED Revenants
Filename : dehrevs.zip
Release date : January 14th, 2017
Author : scifista42
Email Address : [redacted]
Description : Three small, vanilla-compatible,
not-entirely-serious DEHACKED mods I've made.
Revivant: Archvile resurrects everything as
Revenants. (including other Archviles, Cyberdemons,
Spiderdemons, Nazis and Keens) In addition, Pain
Elemental spits Revenants. In addition, Revenants
are slightly more aggressive. Side effect:
Revenants leap towards you while being resurrected,
and they may infight if they bump into each other
in that moment. Another side effect: Revenants
appear translucent in source ports than allow
translucency (technically, they replace Lost
Souls).
Skel_op: Makes Revenants overpowered, but still
reasonable to be seriously (?) used in maps: Double
health, double aggressivity, quadruple speed,
instant melee attack, shoots 5 missiles in a row,
shorter pain animation.
Op_reviv: Anybody wanted to use the abovementioned
2 patches together? Sorry, they're not compatible
if you simply load them together. But this patch
was specially made to act just like that. Revenants
have all of the traits from both Revivant and
Skel_op.

Known Bugs : Even though the DEHACKED is vanilla compatible, you
should play it in a port that disables Lost Soul
maximum number limit, because otherwise it stops
working after a while (revenant corpses don't
disappear, so their number only keeps increasing
and never decreases).
