           DOOM Deathmatch Ver.2 .LMP Recorded Film Submissions
           ----------------------------------------------------


  Here's a bunch of Alt-DeathMatch Four and Three-Player (IPX) Net-DOOM
  .LMP recordings using "HALLSALL.WAD" Episode for you all to savour :-)

  >> RAL4HAL1.TXT  File For :-  RAL4HAL1.ZIP  - Part 1 of Three Parts <<

  Please Note that these .LMP files will ONLY work with (A Modified Copy
  of) The Registered DOOM.WAD Version 1.2 !! (More on this topic later.)

  Because of this, these .LMP files should IMHO be classified as Version
  1.2 .LMP files, rather than 1.5 Beta .LMP Files. They WON'T WORK with
  Just the 1.5 Beta "Free" Shareware Release of DOOM - You MUST HAVE the
  DOOM.WAD from the Registered Version of DOOM, Version 1.2 ONLY. Okay?

[ They should sit quite nicely next to RAL3MAN.ZIP. They're 1.2 .LMPS too! ]


  Deep Breath ...

  These .LMP file recordings were made with Jan Ignatius & Osku Salerma's
  HALLSALL.WAD DeathMatch!! Episode using the DOOM.EXE from the 1.5 Beta
  "ShareWare" Release of DOOM together with a Version of the Registered
  (10Mb Long) 1.2 DOOM.WAD that had been modified by Eric Leung's Patch
  Contained in his 15REGVR2.ZIP package to be 1.5 Beta compatible ...

  Don't Panic if this all sounds way too complicated ... I think, I've put
  it all together in a fairly simple to use set of .ZIP archives and also
  written a set of .BAT files to make it all flow without too much thought
  or intervention on the part of ... well, you lot I suppose.

  Bottom line - What do you need to be able to view these .LMP files?

  The LONG answer goes a bit like this. You need ...

  The SHORT answer - You need ...

  Three "RAL4HAL?.ZIP" Files ...

  RAL4HAL1.ZIP  Which Should be about  1,100,000  Bytes Long
  RAL4HAL2.ZIP  Which Should be about    700,000  Bytes Long
  RAL4HAL3.ZIP  Which Should be about    800,000  Bytes Long

  So, choose a drive with "plenty" of free space - PkUnZip'd, these
  files will take up about 2.6 Mb but the Required DOOM.WAD is over
  10.4 Mb and the following routines need another 3.6 Mb of space -

  Bottom line - you'll need just under 17 MegaBytes of Free Space !!!


  0) Boot-Up your (Faster-the-Better) PC in "Ready-to-Run-DOOM" Mode.

  1) Make a Separate DIRectory for all of the RAL4HALL files.

     eg. MD C:\HALLSALL

  2) PkUnZip each of the RAL4HAL?.ZIP into this DIRectory ...

     eg. PkUnZip [d:\pathname\]RAL4HAL1 C:\HALLSALL /N
         PkUnZip [d:\pathname\]RAL4HAL2 C:\HALLSALL /N
         PkUnZip [d:\pathname\]RAL4HAL3 C:\HALLSALL /N

     Where "d:\pathname\" is the drive and path to each RAL4HAL?.ZIP.
     If the RAL4HAL? .ZIP's are on your first floppy this is - "A:\"

     If you don't use an /N switch (for "newer files only") (or an /O
     switch for "overwrite existing files") then you will get some :-

       "... already exists.  Overwrite (y/n/a/r)?"  prompts.

     If so just answer these any way you like ;-) it doesn't really
     matter at all but All Y(es) or All N(o) responces is sensible.

  3) Now, I Suggest that you make All of the files in this DIRectory
     READ-Only - so that you can later issue a "Del *.*" in this DIR
     without losing any of these files (it will save a bit of space)

     eg. Attrib +R *.*  ( while in the "C:\HALLSALL>" DIR )

  4) Then Move or Copy or PkUnZip a Registered Version 1.2 DOOM.WAD
     to the DIRectory where you've just put all the RAL4HALL files.

       Exactly how you do this I'll leave entirely up to you ...
       But I'll just say that anyone that has multiple copies of a
       (Compressable ;-) Ten MegaByte file on their drive ... Well ??


  So You're Now Ready to run MY Very Own "SETHALL" .BAT Setup File !!
