DOOM GOLD 1.0 - Alternate sounds and music for commercial DOOM 1.2
NOTE:
DOOM GOLD IS FREE! SHAME ON THOSE GREEDY ASSHOLES THAT CREATE ALTERNATE
SOUND, PWAD OR GRAPHICS LIBRARIES FOR DOOM, THEN TRY TO SELL THEM! IF YOU
WANT TO MAKE MONEY OFF OF DOOM, GO GET A JOB WITH Id SOFTWARE! EITHER THAT,
OR GET OFF YOUR DEAD BUTT AND WRITE YOUR OWN YIPPY-SKIP GAME AND CHARGE $$
FOR YOUR OWN WORK! To those of you who write DOOM editors and charge money
for your work, why not? What you're doing is original programming and more
power to you! Keep up the good work!!!

Welcome to DOOM GOLD! I know you'd rather play than read, so let's get to
it! Here's the skinny, short & sweet!
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
To use DOOM GOLD, you'll need a computer capable of playing DOOM. You'll
also need a Sound Blaster sound card (SB, SBPro, SB16) or compatible. Lastly
you'll require about 11 megabytes of room on your DOOM hard drive, since the
DOOM GOLD program makes a copy of your DOOM.WAD then modifies the copy so
you original WAD is not subject to damage in any way. You MUST have a copy
of ANSI.SYS running at bootup. Your DOS manual will tell you how to do this.
One more thing: If you're running a cheap VGA adapter with a weird chipset,
like an OAK for instance, don't even bother trying to run DOOM GOLD. The
DG loader will malfunction with unpredictable results.
HOW TO INSTALL:
Just unpack this archive (DMGOLD10.*) in your DOOM directory, type GINSTALL
and follow the program prompts. DOOM GOLD is a big program and may take
some time to install, depending on your machine speed. After you install
the program, it may be a good idea to de-fragment your drive in order to
speed up game play!
WARNING***WARNING: READ THIS OR DON'T BLAME ME IF THINGS GO WRONG!
Before installing DOOM GOLD, make sure your DOOM.WAD file is clean...that
is, free of all user installed PWADS, GRAPHICS or MUSIC. If you don't you
will need to reload DOOM from scratch in order to get back to game defaults.
Once installed, you can modify the DOOM GOLD .WAD if you wish with new maps
and levels, so long as said additions don't change graphics, sounds or the
music tracks (I don't know what'll happen if you ignore this last bit, but
I wouldn't try to find out if I were you!).
RUNNING DOOM GOLD:
After install, merely type DOOMGOLD to play. You'll be presented with a
menu and you should select the "Read about this program" option first.
After this is done, follow other options to load, unload or de-install
DOOM GOLD.
I think you'll find DOOM GOLD sound effects to be a great addition to the
game! If the music bugs you, simply turn it down or off - but I really
suggest you try with the music enabled at least once, we have some pretty
nice tracks!
Lastly, be sure to give a copy of DOOM GOLD (in the original archive only,
please) to every DOOM player you know! Upload it to any BBS that'll take it
and put it all over the Internet too! BLANKET THE WORLD!
DISCLAIMER: Whatever happens, I DIDN'T DO IT! :)
ENJOY! E-13, 1994
