· (Compilation of fixes)

A compilation of fixes for Painkiller: Battle out of Hell (version 1.64) or Black Edition. Based on Cumulative Patch, also some fixes were taken from patches 1.65, 1.66 and Randomguy7s Painkiller Fix Compilation.

List of fixes:

            Orphanage: Fixed a fix to prevent weapons from resetting to just Painkiller when re-entering a level during progress.
