DMMUI v1.0 DooMMusic User Interface Written By Pooka What It Is : DMMUI is a front end for DMMUSIC.EXE, a program which allows you insert your own musical scores into DOOM. I've included DMMUSIC v1.0 and MIDI2MUS in the Zipfile, so you don't have to go looking for them. Hopefully their authors won't mind :) Installation : 1. UnZIP the files into the directory which contains your .MUS files. 2. Make sure that DMMUSIC.EXE is ALSO in that same directory (the one you just put DMMUI into). It should be included in the Zipfile, but if it's not (or you have a better version of DMMUSIC you wish to use), copy your DMMUSIC.EXE into the directory with DMMUI. Whether or not DMMUI will be compatible with future versions of DMMUSIC I don't know. I tested DMMUI with DMMUSIC v1.0, so anything later than that is not guaranteed to work. 3. Edit the DMMUI.INI file and change the directory to where your DOOM.WAD file is located. 4. Run DMMUI! Execution : When you run DMMUI, the first screen will give you a list of the .MUS files in the directory. Highlight one and press Enter. If there are "More", press F1 for the next page. Next, you will be given a list of missions. Pick one. After that, you will be asked to confirm your choices. If you messed up, you can select 'N' and start over. If you are pleased with your choices, press 'Y'. DMMUI will then ask you for the name of the PWAD file you wish to create. If you enter a filename (whatever.wad), DMMUSIC will create a PWAD of the mission you selected, but with new music. If you enter '*', DMMUSIC will CHANGE THE MUSIC IN YOUR DOOM.WAD FILE. If you don't want this, make sure to enter a filename. That's it! The PWAD file will be in you DMMUI directory, ready for play! Or if you didn't enter a PWAD filename, your DOOM.WAD file will have new music. To play the PWAD, go to your DOOM directory and type 'DOOM -FILE \NEWMUSIC.WAD'. Limitations : If you want to make lots of PWADs, you'll have to run DMMUI again. I don't know how to make BorlandC++ return from an EXECL call. If you know how, please send me some email and I'll update DMMUI (and give proper credit! yay!). Epilogue : This program was coded very quickly without much attention paid to efficiency or style. Actually, if you need this program, then you're really lazy, because DMMUSIC really isn't very hard to use. I could only see this program being handy if you have LOTS of PWADs to make, or have LOTS of .MUS files you want to wade through. But, if you like it and have a use for it, I'm glad. If not, DEL DMMUI.EXE. Credits : Coding - Pooka (pooka@netcom.com) Thanks to Chris Lambertus for revealing the Arg0 mystery.
