=========================================================================== Archive Maintainer : I'm assuming this goes in /historic Uploaded by : Miguel Folatelli (aka myk) Primary purpose : No levels included =========================================================================== Title : DOOM for Windows --> WinDoom April 13 Build Filename : WINDOOM.EXE Release date : 1995 Author : id Software, Inc. and Microsoft Corporation Email Address : myk@fibertel.com.ar (uploader) Description : It is an old Beta version of Microsoft's Doom port. It's made for DOOM II v1.8 (though the latest IWADs will work as well), but will also run DOOM. One convenient feature it provides is that if when executed it doesn't find an IWAD it'll let you browse for one (so you don't have to necessarily run it from the Doom2 directory.) Additional credits to: : funduke for uploading the earlier build, Thrasher for posting a copy of this one. =========================================================================== * What is included * Files Included : 04.08.1995 14:59 1.872 DEISLOG.1 17.03.1995 07:51 36.864 DOOMSER.DLL 11.04.1995 16:24 89.600 NETDOOM.EXE 13.02.1995 20:00 165.888 UNIST.EXE 13.04.1995 11:39 617.472 WINDOOM.EXE Other files required : DOOM II: Hell on Earth . * Play Information * Game : DOOM II Known Bugs : Maybe (it's a development beta after all.) For example, using DOOM's IWAD it can terminate early on as it looks for HELP2; it's a resource for the shareware, but the registered version, will work otherwise, as will the ultimate version (sans the last episode.) * Additional notes * The officially reased version of WinDOOM can be downloaded from this location of the /idgames archive (see below:) idstuff/doom/win95/doom95.zip It comes with the shareware IWAD, but works also with Registered DOOM, The Ultimate DOOM, DOOM2 and Final DOOM. * Copyright / Permissions * DOOM II for Windows Copyright (c) 1995 id Software.
