 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
                       PROBLEMS  FIXED IN THIS VERSION:

 - Problems with mercs getting stuck on dead bodies in doorways.

 - "Miss splat" was being used generically for several weapons creating an
   impression of mercs using the wrong weapons.  Machine gun style miss
   would be displayed for flame guns, rocket launchers, etc - this has
   been changed to appropriate weapon misses.

 - Commands being ignored due to stored up previous commands has been
   improved. 

                                ALSO INCLUDED:

- Updated sound drivers to fix problems with Creative Labs' drivers not  
  working with newer Creative Labs' Sound Blaster cards.  This fixes the
  "Sound Blaster not working" message that was occuring.

- ICD.EXE and ICE.EXE to disable and reenable the internal cache on 486 
  machines that may have conflicts with sound drivers due to machine cache 
  speed.  Instructions for use of ICD and ICE are listed below.
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     - Special Note for 486/50 Mhz machines and Sound Blaster soundcards -

    Problems may occur with Sound Blaster soundcards when attempting 
    to play music on a 486 machine running at 50 Mhz speed.  Included are 
    2 files: ICD.EXE and ICE.EXE - the former to disable the internal cache on 
    the 486 and the latter to reenable the cache. 

Usage:   icd - disables the internal cache 
         ice - enables the internal cache

** WARNING:  IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A 486 COMPUTER, DO NOT RUN THESE PROGRAMS!! **
