well
If I remember correctly, there were tons of level packs, and occasionally color edits and/or minor graphical changes. Like "I added a line of black to the top of the pogo sprite so it doesn't look weird anymore," etc. :-) KeenRush, on the other hand, totally reinvented Keen.
Yeah, it was the first total mod; meaning new tiles and sprites, levels, and some changed text. I should've looked at ck1patch more, but I just didn't realize it back then -- you know like first you can't figure something out but then someday you just get it and so on. That happened to me. The graphic tweaks with level packs, I have seen none that could be called mod.. Best I've seen was some mess of random colours. (That obviously wasn't new graphics, but making the file corrupted or something to get the effect.)
That was because I had modded Duke 3D before that (and with same attitude than Keen modding; never managed to release anything because projects always stopped or restarted). Duke mods were called 'total conversions' instead of 'mods'. Back then I for some reason loathed the word 'mod' and wanted Keen mods to be called TCs.. ::crazy:: Luckily that changed really soon all by itself, and turned that I would never use word TC anymore. :p It changed really fast..It was amusing that it was called a "total conversion".
