=========================================================================== Archive Maintainer : This file is quite useful for DM games using the original EXEs and may be found here or there on some DM-oriented DOOM sites but I thought it would be more easily available if on the Archive so here it is. Uploaded by Miguel Folatelli (aka myk helnyte, myk@helnyte.zzn.com.) July 8th: I'm reuploading this to fix the file name inconsistencies (in the text file) and to give the utility a more attractive and sensible name. Update to : /utils/network/ctfipxsu.zip Primary purpose : Cooperative and DeathMatch play =========================================================================== Title : CTFDoom's IPXSETUP utility Filename : IPXDOOM.EXE Release date : June 22nd, 2003 (uploaded) July 8th, 2003 (renamed) Author : John Cole Email Address : jcole@eisa.net.au (might not work) Other Files By Author : The CTFDdoom source mod Misc. Author Info : John Cole coded the early CTFDoom DOOM source mod based on DOSDoom. Description : A source modification of id Software's IPXSETUP that allows you to select the name of the game EXE the utility will run as well as what machine will use what player color. The first feature is quite useful for using DeHackEd modified EXEs on multi-player mode without having to rename the EXE to a standard name (either doom or doom2) and the second is useful for switching Player colors during DM or Coop, given the fact that the different Players "lag" differently. This utility was originally part of one of the CTFDoom distribution packages. Additional Credits to : id Software, Laura "Bahdko" Hermann for making me aware of this IPXSETUP mod.
