* How to set up *

The following files are included in this .zip:

dm15.zip       - Zipped copy of DM v1.5 with documentation.
    doom\dm.dat    - Configuration file for Ultimate Doom.
    doom2\dm.dat   - Configuration file for Doom II.
    strife\dm.dat  - Configuration file for Strife.
    chex\dm.dat    - Configuration file for Chex Quest.

Unzip dm15.zip into your Doom (or other game) directory, overwriting
your old DM.EXE if necessary; you can also rename it. Then copy the
appropriate configuration file into the same directory.

* Known Bugs *

Chex Quest doesn't include copies of IPXSETUP or SERSETUP, so this is of
limited use there. You can still use it to start single player games.

DM v1.5 removed support for classic deathmatch (not altdeath) mode. You
can achieve the same effect by running dm.exe with '-deathmatch' on the
command line and selecting 'Cooperative' mode in the interface.

For Strife there is no cooperative multiplayer mode: multiplayer games
are always deathmatch. In this case, 'Cooperative' mode functions as
'classic' deathmatch while 'DeathMatch' mode functions as deathmatch
2.0 (altdeath).

* Copyright / Permissions *

You can do anything you want with these configuration files. I release
them to the public domain.
