- The first thing you should do is copy the zip file to the
- doom2 directory! Well and then unzip it of course and your ready
- to run WAD. Well I do not have that much error checking in this
- program so if the file WADD.OVL is not in the same directory as
- WAD.EXE than their will be an error and WAD will terminate!!!
- so please check your work!, Version 1.2 has a lot more error
- checking which will be out about Christmas Time 1994 I have alot
- of it done already but some extra stuff like Single player mode!
- Expert mode that is for people that are experts at dos and like
- command line swiches, and so they type WAD /E and all the popup
- windows and extra graphics are disabled!, and so it's faster,
- Notice that Expert mode does not have error checking in it!
- A better load pwad feature that does not prompt you for the path
- it is a WINDOWS still search directory and you select a .wad file
- to play in DOOM2. Maybe I'll put .ZIP support in WAD 1.2 so you can
- unzip a .wad file to play and then when doom2 quits it will delete
- it!!, well I need to now what people want!, and It's going to be the
- same price 5 dollors + 3 dollors shipping!, WELL LOOK FOR THE FILE
- WAD_12.ZIP all over BBS and maybe the internet I'm thinking about
- that too so just look for it!
-
- Here it is the ultimate Doom ][ shell for deathmatch games!
- and at this time the only one!! That I now of!! Well, one day
- I was sitting down with waded the most powerful Doom ][ level
- editior, and was makeing a map for Doom ][ and I finished it
- when I asked one of my many friends to help me try it out over
- deathmatch (modem of course) and well let's just say that this
- person is not as literite to computer as I am. And that is how
- I thought to make this program. I thought that many people can
- use a program that can do deathmatch games and load extra pwads
- into Doom ][ AND AT A SMALL PRICE!!!
-
- Okay now the legal stuff. This program is SHAREWARE.
- Shareware means that you can take a look and try a program
- before you buy it!!, and I fully believe in SHAREWARE so please
- support it.
-
- This program is copyrighted software and is NOT FREE! BUT
- IS AT A SMALL PRICE please read the share.doc to find out how
- much this program costs it's around 5 bucks!!
-
- okay when you type "WAD" at the command prompt you goto a
- screen that says UNREGISTERED DELAY and your probably thinking
- what the! Yep you are right I can't trust american people
- about buying this software so I have to put a delay on it NOT
- much just a 29 sec delay to be exact! And that delay will be
- gone once you register this program! okay after that delay
- thing it will come up to a lotus 1-2-3 style menu and I set it
- up so that it will be an ease to run it!!, okay the first thing
- you need to do is tell WAD what map you want to run E.G. map 01
- (the best deathmatch map) after you tell WAD THAT you need to
- tell WAD what comport you are runing E.G Com 4, and to answer
- or dial a phone number IF you dial you will be prompted for a
- phone number to dial. These are required to run WAD in
- deathmatch mode but there is some extra stuff to like:
- a load wad feature that LOADS PWADS INTO DOOM ][ so you can
- play doom ][ with extra pwads over modem! (notice that the
- select map feature is the same as if you are not loading a
- extra pwad SO MAKE SURE THAT YOU NOW WHAT THE MAP NUMBER IS FOR
- THE EXTRA PWAD BEFORE RUNING DOOM ][. And the last extra
- feature is the shell to dos that is very helpful do to , the fact
- you can shell to dos real quick and see were EXTRA PWADS ARE OR
- WHAT EVER and this feature is real good for unregistered users
- due to the fact that their is no delay when you shell to dos!
-
- OKAY OKAY OKAY!!!!, This .DOC is almost finished just one
- more thing about future updates. I plan to have a PHONEBOOK
- FEATURE, A SINGLE PLAYER MODE!, LOAD MULTIPLE PWADS!, HAVE A
- .CFG SO YOU CAN DEFINE IT FOR YOUR OWN COLORS, and stuff like
- that!! This may not seam like much, THAT'S why I need your
- help!! If you could mail, call or what ever about any BUG'S or
- future update that you think that I should include into my
- program. Thanks
