---Notes---
If you like\dislike this modification, please....feedback!  I'd really like to know.

This changes the coloring in the demos to black and white, like an old movie about WWII, or a WWII newsreel, but I decided to make some "artistic decisions" and left the blood (using the original bloodpatch), weapons fire, and explosions in their original color.  I think it makes for a fairly interesting experience.  (It's a similar effect to the candles and little girl's dress being left in color in Shindler's List.)
For those of you who don't like that, and would prefer the "authentic newsreel experience", you can install the User-XC-Newsreel.pk3 along with the others to leave everything greyed out.
I also opted to leave the menus and the HUD in full color, as well.  If enough people complain, I might consider taking a few minutes and tossing together a hud b&w patch.

This mod is only intended for the MP and SP demos.  The missions those were taken from in the full version of the game will probably be black and white if you use these patches, but alot of the rest of the game will be in regular color, or partially in regular color.
I know that the full version is already released, so I'm probably a day late and dollar short with this, but I figured I'd drop it off anyway.  Perhaps there's SOMEONE still out there playing the demo.  I doubt I'd do anything like this for the full version.  It'd just be too much work, since I don't have a program that'll do it as a batch conversion...and doing it this way would make for a MASSIVE download.
