RISEN3D QUICK LAUNCH
README
R3DQlaunch has been created by Willem
Sitters ...
For the quick and hassle free use of the Risen3D Doom port.
THE IWAD LISTBOX
On initial run the launcher searches for
Iwads in the
Environment Variables
If the launcher cannot locate any
Iwads you are prompted to add an Iwad.
The IWAD listbox contains all available Iwads located on your PC.
If the Pwad was created with for
example, the Iwad Plutonia - select Plutonia.
THE GAME FOLDER LISTBOX
Here you can select the game folder that contains the Pwad.
The launcher automatically shows the wad file(s) with their associated maps.
Now you can select the wad and the map you wish to play.
Click the play button to play your level.
RISEN3D PARAMETERS
Here are some R3D
switches which can be placed in R3d parameters.
For more switches read the
R3D_Docs\Help\R3D_Cmdline.txt
-jdrp
This enables the jDoom alpha replacement pack models if installed.
-xa
Play without models but retain
Risen3D's core effects.
-fx
Enable extra particle effects (
smoking flames ).
-amwds
Allow models with duplicate sprites (
can't be used on dehacked sprites ).
-sky240
This can be used to give a zdoom type sky, reducing the overhead " sky hole ".
May look better on some maps, worse on others.
-mfo
Doom2.exe tag 667 function ( rarely
used, don't use with Boom maps ).
GL AND NORMAL NODES
If a pwad refuses to build the GL nodes, such as giving an Input/Output
error,
select the ' Normal and GL nodes '
option and restart your map.
This very rarely needs to be done
however, the cchest2.wad is one exception.
Note:
This is a temporary option and is deselected after each launch.
ENVIRONMENT
VARIABLES
Use DOOMWADDIR to set your Iwads path as an
Environment Variable.
For Win2K, XP or other NT platforms
Open My Computer/Properties/Advanced/Environment Variables and add the
following
- Variable
DOOMWADDIR Value
C:\IWADS
For Win98 and ME edit your autoexec.bat -
SET
DOOMWADDIR=C:\IWADS
The above examples assume your Iwads were
located in the C:\IWADS
Directory.
