INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO RUN DOOM
ON A SIMPLY LANTASTIC NETWORK
Files Included: LSL.COM
NRODI.COM
IPXODI.COM
NETDOOM.BAT
NETDOOM.DOC
YOU MUST HAVE THE REGISTERED VERSION (1.2 or better)
OF DOOM TO UTILIZE THIS PACKAGE
This archive contains everything you need to run DOOM on a
SIMPLY LANTASTIC network. Change to the directory which contains
DOOM and then execute this self extracting archive. ie.,
cd games\doom
\download\lntstcdm
Then execute the NETDOOM batch file to install the drivers
and run DOOM SETUP to access network gameplay. It's best NOT to
have the normal Lantastic drivers and network in place when doing
this. You might consider booting clean from floppy also, so as to
get the maximum amount of memory available for gameplay.
To set up a boot disk, format a disk with the /S parameter,
then create a basic CONFIG.SYS file. Maybe, something like this:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\himem.sys
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS
BUFFERS=5
FILES=20
DOS=HIGH,UMB
STACKS=0,0
Then create an AUTOEXEC.BAT file that changes to your DOOM
directory and starts NETDOOM.BAT. Maybe, something like this:
@ECHO OFF
SET SOUND=D:\SB
SET TEMP=C:\TEMP
SET BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 T4
LH c:\MOUSE\MOUSE
CD GAMES\DOOM
NETDOOM
That SHOULD do it. Your configuration may vary from mine, but
you get the gist of this rambling, eh?
I put this package together for those of you who can't get
your hands on LSL.COM, NRODI.COM and IPXODI.COM. Together these
COM files allow up to 4 players to play DOOM over a SIMPLY
LANTASTIC network. Also included is a sample batch file for
loading them into upper memory and then removing them upon exit
from the game.
Good Luck, & good shooting.
