Hippieman found some higher resolution renders from the XBLA game on his hard drive. This plugin combines the scraps to give you mostly complete compiler, cyborg, fighter, green trooper, hunter, tick, and f'lickta replacements.

• There is no purple trooper, it will be low res. Sorry, Vidmasters.
• One frame of the brown hunter is missing, and will appear low-res
• The orange compiler was generated from the purple one using the hald clut that was used for the original plugin. All the compilers were squished vertically to fit the original XBLA aspect ratio.
• Not (yet?) included: the "Marine" sprites
• Not included: the Classic Marathon-style red compiler

Notes for version 0.2:

• Fixes black outlines in DDS conversion
