Fairfight V3.0 - Identical to FairFight V2.0 but Version moved to 3.0 to show
                 compatability with Registered Full Version of Duke Nukem 3D.

Why Fair Fight?
---------------
I started making changes to the original files as I was becoming bored with
all my Dukematches simply being an exchange of 50 RPG'S every time the
opponents met. Let's face it, most encounters in Dukematch end in one player
dying quickly, and simply a race to get to 200 health and 100 armour (not
forgetting your trusty 50pack of RPG'S). There is a lot more to Dukematch
than this.....Just Wait Till You Try FairFight!!!

These updated GAME.CON and USER.CON files are designed for use in 2-player,
DUKEMATCH, games. The files alter the firepower of various weapons and the
amount of ammo able to be carried for them. Changes are also made to the
amount of health given by ORBS.......More details below.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
   COPY YOUR ORIGINAL GAME.CON & USER.CON FILES TO A SAFE PLACE NOW!!!!!!
                        ...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remember --- Both players in a modem game MUST be using the SAME user.con
             and game.con files...or you will get "out of sync" errors.

INSTALLING FAIRFIGHT
1) Copy your existing GAME.CON and USER.CON files from your Duke3d directory
   to a SAFE place..(You will need them when you play an opponent NOT using
   the "FairFightV3.0" files!)
2) Copy the new GAME.CON and USER.CON files in this directory to your Duke3d
   directory. These files will overwrite your original ones...hence the NEED
   to copy the original ones FIRST!
3) MAKE SURE YOUR OPPONENT HAS ALSO DONE STEPS 1 & 2 !!
4) Connect to your opponent in the normal way.

To remove FairFight, and return your Duke3d back to normal, just copy your
original GAME.CON and USER.CON files from the "SAFE" place you put them in,
back to your Duke3d directory, overwriting the FairFight files.
(Unless you didn't read this before starting...Serves U Right!!)

What to expect in FairFight.
----------------------------
Basically, limitations to the amount of ammo that can be carried for
certain weapons, reduced BLASTRADIUS for RPG'S and PIPEBOMBS, reductions
in amount of damage caused by certain weapons, changes to amounts of HEALTH
given by icons, and an increase to JETPAC time.
The most obvious change is the severe limitation now put on RPG'S. You can
now only carry 2 at a time....."WHAT,ONLY TWO!!"...Yup, thats right, gotta
use 'em wisely now!!!

These changes, (in my opinion), make DUKEMATCH much more exciting, as the 
"RPG Junkies" among us now need some serious hardware, (and GUTS), to 
back-up their attack!! 

I know some Dukers will take a bit of convincing to even try FairFight, but
at least give it a go!!.......REMEMBER..If you don't like it, just go back
to playing with the original files.....No harm done.....But PLEASE.........
...............................TRY IT!!....................................

HAVE FUN!!!
