APCiDOOM is a full front-end for id Software's DOOM and DOOM II.
APCiDOOM supports the following DOOM/DOOM II gaming modes:
1 - MultiPlayer Modem DOOM/DOOM II via the APCi MultiPlayer Game Server.
Yes, up to FOUR PLAYERS can now play together anytime, from
anywhere, with their high-speed modem. A special chat utility
enables players to chat and to change WAD files and settings
before and between games.
2 - Two-player modem DOOM/DOOM II including chat support.
3 - Two-player serial link DOOM/DOOM II including chat support.
4 - MultiPlayer IPX DOOM/DOOM II including chat support.
5 - MultiPlayer IPX DOOM/DOOM II in VGC mode via the APCiMPGS. This
mode allows local IPX players to play with dialed-in players via
the APCi MultiPlayer Game Server.
APCiDOOM allows you to keep your DOOM and DOOM II add-in WAD files sorted
into separate directories. It also allows you to create APCi WAD description
files. APCiDOOM comes with the following sample add-in WADs, complete with
description files:
WAD Filename Description Filename
~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For DOOM v1.666 APCIE1M1.WAD APCIE1M1.AWD
For DOOM II v1.7a APCID2M1.WAD APCID2M1.AWD
Once you have chosen a location for your DOOM and DOOM II level WAD files,
move these files and their descriptions to their appropriate locations.
========== Before attempting to play DOOM using APCiDOOM, please read the
IMPORTANT! online help. It might take you a whole twenty minutes. Many
========== users have wasted hours of long distance time trying to play
multiplayer DOOM when just five minutes in the help system would
have done just as well. If you still have problems, read the
file named LOCKUPS!.WHY that is included with this archive.
APCiDOOM is merely client software. It is NOT the software that provides
support for multiplayer modem DOOM. Support is provided by the APCi
MultiPlayer Game Server. The APCiMPGS currently supports id Software's DOOM
and DOOM II. For additional information regarding the APCiMPGS, please call
the APCi BBS at (618) 632-7664.
