You just COPY the dat files, and PASTE them into the right directory. Another way would be by using the good old DOS-prompt... copy *.dat to the right folder, and presto... you're done...

Both the new_wads0110.zip and the angkor.zip contain revised script.dat & english.dat files; the revised_wads0110.zip doesn't, but then again, these don't need new scripts, since they are the old levels you already had...

Always backup, backup, backup! Best of luck, Striffelbuur. IP: Logged
