THE DOOM PAGE 


Here are four new Doom WADS for this month. As always, just copy these
files into your Doom directory. 

All of these files can be found off of the \DOOM directory on our CD.

7_10SPLT.WAD - Take a demon bowling at the Dumerica Bowling Arena!
             Not your usual setting for Doom.

MK3.WAD^T12 - The Lost Mines: The CyberDemon and his minions have taken  
             the mines. They've been doing a little redecorating  
             but that shouldn't deter you from ending the madness.

FIRESTM2.WAD - Fire Storm: Prepare to enter the Fire Storm. This WAd
             was designed with deathmatch in mind, but that's not 
             the only way it can be played.

MKHALLS.WAD - The Halls of Death: One simple strategy for this 
             WAD -- survive!

A few folks have written and asked "once we copy them into
our Doom directory, how do you load 'em?". Well, this can 
be pretty arbitrary depending what each WAD's author created. 
There's always a TXT file for you to read, and some even 
include a batch file for loading the WAD. If you're left 
clueless, the standard procedure is to type:  doomx -file wadname.wad

where doomx = your Doom executable command, either DOOM or DOOM2
where -file = would appear just as it is
where wadname.wad = is the name of the WAD file you wish to load

i.e. If the game is Doom 2 and the WAD name is CLIFFS.WAD, you'd
type:  DOOM2 -FILE CLIFFS.WAD.

This doesn't always work, they're just general guidelines. As
with all WADS, updates, add-ons or patches make sure your original 
files are backed up. PC Gamer will not accept any responsibility 
for problems caused by these files.
