The Marathon Vidmaster Challenge is cool.  But there are some levels you
can't play, because you need to use a grenade or fusion blast to flip
switches.  To get around this problem, I just created a physics model that
implements only one change: pistol bullets are given the ability to toggle
switches.  This should not affect game balance in any way, shape, or form,
so all Vidmasters out there will now be able to test their skills on any
level at all.

I have attached a binhexed Stuffit file containing the physics model and a
film of how far I got on Cool Fusion (anybody who's played Cool Fusion can
guess just where I got greased).  Just remember to put the Physics Model
into the same folder as Marathon, or I'll never be able leave the first
room.

I'd really like to see somebody post a film of getting past Cool Fusion
with the Vidmaster rules.  Anyone up for it?
