We have no Problems playing WAD┤s as network games. We use up
to 4 PC┤s with NE2000 compatible Network Cards.
You have to start IPXSETUP.EXE instead of DOOM.EXE, parameters
are the same, that means for 3 Players with MYWAD.WAD try :
IPXSETUP -nodes 3 -port x -file MYWAD.WAD
With the "-devparm -warp a b" where a means Episode and b means
level you can get to the designated episode of the WAD.
x means the Port number. It should be higher than 1, we always
got troubles on ports 0 and 1 !!
Hope it helps, feel free to contact me, Wolfgang
