Terminal Guidance Is Auto-Doom's

(DOOM is a trademark of id Software)
■ The Controls....
The operation of Auto-Doom is very simple......
Spacebar - Tags and Untags menu options
Arrowkeys - Move between options
Escape or "q" - exit Auto-Doom
In addition typing "d" at the main menu will execute a dos shell
(for those boring call waits)
■ What is Auto-Doom?
Auto-Doom is a add-on program for Doom that dramatically
simplifies running Doom locally or through serial/modem games.
Auto-Doom replaces and enhances all of the functionality of
DOOM's SETUP.EXE with the exception of the hardware configuration
portion.
■ Features:
■ Auto-Doom makes Doom command line parameters more accessible
than through SETUP.EXE.
■ Able to start on any level of any episode.
■ Select NO MONSTERS or Respawning for gruesome DEATHMATCH
games.
■ Select RESPAWN MONSTERS for everyone out there with a death
wish.
■ Select up to 10 external WAD files from a list of 150 so that
you can play modified levels of DOOM. (If you have more than 150
you're spending way to much time in cyber-space!)
■ Auto-Doom is very easy to use, you may use your arrow keys
to select the options of your choice, to select that option
press the space bar.
■ Extra Notes:
■ Auto-Doom must be placed in your main DOOM directory.
■ Auto-Doom requires the DOOM serial driver or third party replacement,
(provided its named SERSETUP.EXE), to be in your main DOOM directory
in order to play modem games.
■ Any External .Wad file you plan to use must be located in your
main DOOM directory.
■ Auto-Doom was created for Doom versions 1.4 and above. Attempting to
use it with versions earlier than 1.4 will get you nowhere fast.
Auto-Doom was created for local use and modem play only.
■ Auto-Doom generates many command line parameters
automatically for DOOM.EXE, and SERSETUP.EXE. The following is a
list of the command parameters that are supported:
DOOM.EXE: -skill selects the skill level for new
games
-devparm necessary to use -warp (see
below)
-warp selects starting episode and
level
-noblit speed up on some systems
-nodraw speed up on some systems
-nomonsters runs doom with no monsters
-respawn causes monsters to re-appear 8
seconds after you kill them
-altdoom negative frags incurred for
killing yourself
-deathmatch players have all the keys,
transport into levels at random
locations, and score is kept
based on how many times you
kill the other player(s)
-turbo ### speeds up doom for fast flying
fun (### - up to 250%)
-loadgame specifies which saved game to
load
-file specifies a list of .WAD files
to replace the original level
maps
SERSETUP.EXE: -com selects the com port that you
are using
-answer sets the modem to answer the
phone on modem games
-dial causes the modem to initiate
the call and dial the number
given
NOTE: For running modem games you still need to make sure
that MODEM.CFG contains the proper initialization strings for
your modem. The Extra Params options are strictly for driver
parameters, not modem initialization.
