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

This add-on just adds a few tweaks to the original SdS movie to cover
some of the things we wished we'd done a little differently. The list
below contains some spoilers if you haven't already watched the movie.

 - Almost every reviewer disliked the "signature sounds" we used to
   indicate various tricks (especially the "Engage!" sound for rjumps,
   and also "Prepare to make the jump" when placing a grenade to jump
   off of, and "Thankyou!" when exploding a grenade off a monster.)
   They are too repetitive throughout the movie. So, we silenced these
   three sounds.

 - We added some extra discharge lightning to the Armagon's Lair II demo
   to make it more obvious that it is the marine discharging his lightning
   gun in the liquid riftgate that kills Armagon.

 - We removed some stray white pixels from the skin on the model used for
   the marine when he is carrying no weapons. (They were visible sometimes
   during the start and end scenes.)

 - In the original movie, after the marine is gibbed, the camera pans in on
   the usual Quake player head. This seemed like a silly continuity mistake
   so we replaced the standard id player head with a model of the SdS
   marine's head instead.

 - We added some alternative music by Muse Kastanovich for the Q2dQ2
   teaser.

 - We changed the timing of the start of the music accompanying the
   scene near the start in Armagon's Lair to match the original
   intentions of sound and music supremo Tony Oetzmann.

 - We updated two of the secret runs with the current faster versions.
   (You didn't find the secrets? What are you doing patching the release?
    Get back and look at it properly, already!)

 - We added an extra surprise to the "supersecret".
   (Nothing major, but if you are a Quake and QdQ fan, you may enjoy
    the inside joke.)

 - We changed the credit sound for Joachim Feske.
   (OK, that one is for trainspotters only!)

Enjoy your new improved "Scourge done Slick"!
