General Description:
====================
As of this date, we have released a slew of different pak files, each covering a 
different set of lines from the game.  This includes all of the random lines
for both scientists and Barneys, and all of the scripted dialogue in Chapters
0 through 10 (skipping #9).  Our goal is to release more paks and eventually
replace all of the spoken dialogue in Half-Life.

This pak file is the combination of the pak files listed above.  It will be updated
each time we release a new pak, to contain the new lines.


*** WARNING! *** These pak files do contain some words (and phrases) 
                 that some people may find offensive.  


Installation:
=============
1) Unzip the downloaded (zip) file into your Half-Life directory.  The files "liblist.gam"
   and "rename_pak.bat" are okay to be replaced, in case you're asked that question.
   e.g. If your Half-Life directory is C:\Games\Half-Life then unzip the file into
        C:\Games\Half-Life
2) This should create the following directory structure:
	.\Half-Life
	.\Half-Life\MPHLS
	.\Half-Life\MPHLS\liblist.gam
	.\Half-Life\MPHLS\mphls_all.pak
	.\Half-Life\MPHLS\mphls_all.txt
	.\Half-Life\MPHLS\rename_pak.bat
   (If you don't know what the ".\" is for, don't worry about it.)
   Note:  if you have already installed our other pak files, then the directory structure
   has already been created.
3) Double-click on the "rename_pak.bat".  It should run and correctly rename your downloaded
   pak file.
   (It should get renamed to "pak0.pak", assuming this is a fresh install.)
4) That's it!


How to start Playing:
=====================
1) Start up Half-Life as normal
2) Go to "Custom Game".  You should see our stuff listed there as
	"Mike and Pete's Fun Half-Life Sound Pak"
3) Activate it and return to the main menu.  If this has been installed properly,
   you should now be looking at two cute dough boys.  (Mutated double-doughboys, really)
   Also, the words at the top of the screen should read "Mike & Pete's Fun HL Sound Pak"
4) Start a new game (any difficulty level) and enjoy!


** Please note: ** Many of the replacement sounds are much longer than
the original sounds that they replace.  Because of this, you will 
probably find that a lot of the replacement sounds get interrupted.
There is, unfortunately, no fix for this, but one thing that may help is
to avoid looking at the speaker, as that sometimes prompts him to say
something.

* Special note on the Llama gun:  if you overcharge it, it will keep saying Llama.
  Dunno why... just try not to overcharge it


Having Problems?
================
I'm not about to write up a troubleshooting section because I don't know what might go
wrong.  In the meantime, feel free to e-mail us at
