Misc. Author Info       : Is my alias not descriptive enough?

Description             : Just in case, this compilation of extra MIDIs is
                          neither official nor endorsed by any contributor to
                          Ultimate MIDI Pack. This is simply a small project
                          of mine to fill some gaps in the original which
                          have been heavily annoying me for years.
                          
                          ultimidi_fix.wad replaces the MIDIs from Ultimate
                          MIDI Pack which are remixes of songs from Doom
                          (D_E1M5 and D_E3M9) with original compositions. It
                          also replaces the title screen theme (D_INTRO),
                          which references several songs from Doom, with the
                          shorter and fully original variant (D_INTROA).
                          
                          e1m4b_fix.wad and e1m8b_fix.wad contain original
                          compositions for the maps e1m4b.wad and e1m8b.wad
                          by John Romero, as well as DeHackEd and WILVxx
                          lumps so that their proper names will show up on
                          the automap and intermission screen.
                          
                          e1m4b_fix.deh and e1m8b_fix.deh are included merely
                          for compatibility with the original Boom source
                          port, which lacks support for embedded DeHackEd
                          lumps.
                          
                          2024-12-02: I toned down the harshness of the
                          02:30-03:10 section of the MIDI for the map
                          e1m8b.wad. I also remade the WILVxx lumps, mainly
                          for the recent updates and tweaks of
                          https://c.eev.ee/doom-text-generator/.

Additional Credits to   : Bloo, for composing the MIDIs.
                          continuum.mid, for the original project and the
                          title screen theme.
                          All contributors of the original project,
                          obviously.

* Construction *

Base                    : New from scratch, but borrowing a MIDI from
                          ultimidi.wad.
Build Time              : Roughly two weeks for commissioning the MIDIs and
                          compiling them (back in July), plus an evening for
                          the update.
May Not Run With        : Vanilla, since I did not test if the brand-new
                          MIDIs can be converted successfully to MUS.
Tested With             : Woof!, using both Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth
                          and FluidSynth with the soundfont gm.sf2 by remus.
