ght get tired of beating the same old person time after time
because you don't know anyone else in your area with the same DOOM problem
that you have. With DWANGO, you get DeathMatch-On-Command! Just dial up and
challenge someone to a match -- even if it's 3:00 in the morning!
IMPORTANT NOTE: Since DWANGO is a very new service, you need to dial a
long-distance number to access it. The area code is 713, which is in
Houston, TX. If you can't afford the charges (or don't WANT to), please
don't run DWANGO. If you're under 18, please get your parent's permission
before you start racking up long-distance bills-from-hell. Otherwise, if
you're an avid MoDOOMer, you'll appreciate the convenience of DWANGO.
You will get a half-hour of FREE time on the server, but to continue using
DWANGO, you will need to enter your credit card information in the Billing
section and incur a $20 start-up fee. Then you will need to buy time,
which you can choose in the Billing section.
To get started, it's easy. Just type DWANGO in your DOOM, DOOM2 or HERETIC
directory. Make sure that you run DWANGO from the directory of the game
you want to play, or DWANGO won't have any idea which game you're using.
The best way of running DWANGO is to copy all DWANGO-related files into
the game directory -- there's DWANGO.EXE, DWANGO.STR and DWANGO.TXT. Then,
run DWANGO from there.
First off, DWANGO needs to know your configuration, so when you first run
DWANGO, the Create Configuration panel will come up. You need to enter
your Baud Rate, COM Port, Area Code and Current Modem.
For baud rate, start off with the fastest baud possible first, 38400.
Select the COM port to which your modem is connected. If your phone line
has call-waiting, you can disable it by selecting the Disable CallWaiting
option. If your disable code is not the default "*70", you can type the
correct one for your area. Next, you need to enter your area code. Finally,
you need to choose the type of modem you are using. Press F1 to choose
your modem from a list of popular modems. Finally, press the F10 key to
tell DWANGO that you're finished configuring.
Now, DWANGO is ready for you to log in. But you're not registered as a
New User yet, so you need to press F1 at the Login panel to create a New
User account.
The Username is your "handle" online; it doesn't need to be your real name.
So, you could call yourself "killer" if you think you're really good. Or,
call yourself "babyboy" if you're new to all this DeathMatch stuff. Press
ENTER after editing an item and you will be moved to the next item. If you
need to go back and edit your information, just use the cursor keys to move
back to the item. The Password field will be your permanent password, so
choose something you'll remember easily. Every time you log in to DWANGO
after this time, you'll need to enter both your Username and Password to
get into the system. Press F10 when you've filled all New User Account
fields to log onto DWANGO!
DWANGO will then Initialize your modem, then Dial DWANGO. When the DWANGO
Server answers, DWANGO will Attempt to connect to the server. If connection
doesn't happen within 20 seconds, something is wrong with either your
Baud Rate or your modem init string. First, try to change your baud rate
by re-running DWANGO with "-config". The -config p
