how do i get a custom wad to play using doom 95
do i have to select a particular game WAD file or should that selection read NONE ?

Go into the directory at the MSDOS prompt that has the .EXE that
you are planning on using. Type in name of the .EXE file that
you are using, such as Doom2, Legacy, MBF, and then type -file
and the name of the .WAD file.

EXAMPLE:

doom2 -file name.wad
legacy -file name.wad
jdoomd3d -file name.wad

or if the wad file is not in the same directory include path

doom2 -file c:\doom\wads\name.wad
legacy -file c:\doom2\wads\name.wad
jdoomd3d -file c:\doom\doomwads\name.wad

No, he's talking about Doom '95, which uses a windows launcher.

Yes, you have to select the relevant IWAD (doom2.wad for Doom 2, plutonia.wad for The Plutonia Experiment, etc). This means you can have all the main .wads in one directory if you like.

Then you select any add-on .wads you want to use, although I have a feeling you may be limited to one at a time? I'm not sure, I haven't used it for a couple of years.
