- INTRO :
- -------
- This is a shell program to make life easier when playing DOOM II. With it,
- you can select difficulty levels, wads (multiple), saved games, modem play
- options and other game modifiers in seconds with just the click of your
- mouse. If you're familiar with setup and command line options, then just
- jump right in and type ZAP at the dos prompt.
-
- SETTING UP:
- -----------
- To set this up just unzip it in your DOOM II directory. This program assumes
- that all of your wads and saved games are also in your DOOM II directory. If
- not, tough luck.
-
- STARTING ZAP:
- -------------
- Ok, this can get complicated....ready? Just type ZAP at the dos prompt. Ok?
-
- ZAP OPTIONS:
- ------------
- 1) Start Doom Game - when you click here, the shell program will load DOOM II
- with all the options you selected.
- 2) Quit - this will exit the shell program with out starting DOOM II.
- 3) Type of Game - this means 1 player, 2 player co-op or Deathmatch (version
- 1 or 2). Only 1 player games can be started with the limited
- version of ZAP (see the end of this file on how to get the
- full blown version!).
- 4) Difficulty level - this is how tough you want the game to be.
- 5) Modifiers - there are 5 available modifiers for DOOM II in ZAP :
- 1 - No monsters = there will be NO Monsters!
- 2 - Respawn = dead monsters rise again after 10 seconds!
- 3 - Fast = monsters mover at Nightmare speed no matter what
- difficulty level you select!
- 4 - Turbo = you can move in turbo mode (REAL fast running)
- 5 - Record = this will record your game until you die and
- then save it as a .LMP file for later playback. To see
- a saved demo type :
- DOOM2 -PLAYDEMO ??????? (do NOT include the .LMP)
- 6) Warp - you can jump to any level in the game, including the 2 secret ones!
- 7) Load Game - you can load any saved game by selecting the slot # of where
- that game was saved.
- 8) Wads - you can load whatever wads are available in the DOOM II directory.
- Just double-click your mouse on the one you wish. They must
- end in .WAD to show up on this list, and you can load as
- many as you want.
- 9) Selected Wads - this list shows which wads you selected to play with. If
- you want to remove one from this list just double-click on
- it in the "selected wads" list and its gone.
- 10) No Music - this will turn off the music in DOOM II.
- 11) No Sound FX - this will turn of all sound effects in DOOM II.
-
- QUICK START:
- ------------
- If you wish to run DOOM II a second time with the same settings as before,
- just type FLASH at the dos prompt. Zap saves your settings to this file
- each time you run zap. So the second time around, do not type zap, but
- instead type FLASH and you'll get the same setup as your previous game!
-
- LIMITED VERSION:
- ----------------
- This version is the beta version. With it you can NOT play modem or network
- games! This will be available in the full version, as well as anything else
- I can think up (like compatibility with the CD-Rom version). Want the full
- version? Then Read on!
-

- files I make, all for $10 !!!! To join, first call my BBS and start an
