-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have the old DOS version of doom with the full wad file, under ubuntu there is a free version of this, and a copy of the shareware wad file that came with the original doom how would i go about extracting the main doom wad file from the doom cdrom, so i can play the full doom on ubuntu ? i am guessing i would have to install dosbox, instlal doom from that,
No need - if you've installed doom under ubuntu then you're all set...
then perhaps copy the files over to where I want, is this correct, or is there a way to insert the dos doom cdrom and get at the wad file so I can use it on ubuntu,
apt-get install prboomthen search the cd-rom for the WAD file - it's not hidden in any way at all - just mount it and find it.
Then play doom using prboom --file=doom.wad Not that I've done this myself, but ... Enjoy Gordon -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
