How To Play Doom I and Doom II Online

[Juan_Ambriz]

Ok so ive been in love with playing Doom online and stuff since i really really REALLY love doom so i decided to make a Guide on how to do it.

Step 1. Make sure you have the Doom Wads.

<find the WADs yourself -Magic>

Step 2. On your computer (Anywhere) Make a folder called "Doom" or anything that you will remember that holds your Doom wads

Step 3. Go on http://www.skulltag.com/download/

Step 4. Download your Os's Stable Version

Step 5. Install the Skulltag.exe. (Preferable in your Program Files)

Step 6. Now open the Play Skulltag (Online).exe it should be in the folder where you installed Skulltag
OPTIONAL STEP. Right-Click on the Playskulltag and hover over the "send to" and select Desktop
Step 7. On the top click options, then Configuration

Step 8. Click on >Wadseeker>General

Step 9. On the right you will have to put the directory of your wads which is the folder we created earler named "doom", if its on your desktop the filepath will be like this.
C:\Users\*YOUR COMPUTER USER NAME HERE*\Desktop\doom

Step 10. Finally Click Apply. Then Ok

Now you can play Online Doom Servers by opening "DoomSeeker"

OR if you want to play Singleplayer and re-live your nightmares

Open "Play Sulltag (Singleplayer)"

If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Jumping in before some asshole comes in and goes "HURDUR CANT WAREZ", the Doom 1/2 WAD's are shareware, directed towards modders.

He'll, OP doesn't have any links to the actual downloads.

Just wanted to point that out to prevent the inevitable.

Yeah.

//if I remember right, ID even has some downloads on their official website.

Rockstar has some too with the original GTA 1/2.

Uhh... No.

It is illegal. Doom WADs contain textures and other stuff, which are ID Software's content. AND before saying, "What about FreeDoom wahdjawdh??!?!?". ID Software released Doom engine's source code for free, not Doom content. So you can do anything what you like with the engine, but you cannot share these original WADs. You must buy the game in order to get the WAD. You could create your own like FreeDoom did...

Since that is really short tutorial, you should have some pictures maybe? Just to make it little bit more clear. Nice tut anyway.
