Why would one play doom with a mouse? Much better with keyboard or at least joystick

[gufu1992]

I just love our Russian download sites :w00t:
Though-parents don't allow me to play games with gore.... :eeeeeh:
But I'm ok with that!

DOOM (DOS version) runs with USB Mouse if you have Win9x, or in DOS USB Mouse support added to your DOS OS. Google for dos usb mouse... mby will work with win95 version? haven't tried. why would i? dos version is better anyway (except the network part).

and what makes doom so good? well with correct sound drivers etc. THE MUSIC.
Bobby Prince really knew how to make good ingame music
and looking that some bands even mimic those songs..

and the other thing is a no doubt the multiplayer. deathmatch is so fun and it even has the holy co-operative option -- not many games has it anymore these days.

co-op with nightmare or ultra violence with 4 players is much fun.
3 is underrated too imo.. shows only the lack of experience in this game.. but hey - how all newschoolers would love all oldschool games anyway? CS-players.

If any of you are interested...:

I'm sorry if this question has already been asnwered, but i'm very sohrt on time and can't read the topic.

I got my copy of D2 from a friend who made a data CD for me of it, I installed the game and it works perfectly and all, but it didn't come with the launcher and I want to be able to run WADs.

Is there any way I can find the launcher online, or is there another way to open WADs?

DOOM2 -FILE WHATEVER.WAD

Ugh, i'm very slow today...sorry. Are you implying that I open the WAD with the Doom 2 application? Because I already tried that, and it just launched a regular game...

yes, you run it from a command line "doom2 -file your.wad"

there is usually a text file with a wad to explain what the wad does and how you run it.

some wads just replace sounds and graphics, most replace levels - but not necesseraly the first one(s). (you jump through levels with idclevXX, where XX is level number 01-32).

when doom starts up it writes what it does (loading etc.), see if it writes something like "unable to load wad your.wad"

also make sure it's doom2 wad and not doom1 wad.
