DOOM LAN Party Package

Welcome to the DOOM LAN experience!
This package includes Freedoom with Zandronum, a multiplayer-focused DOOM engine, plus Doomseeker for easy LAN/online connections. Jump into deathmatches, team battles, or cooperative missions with your friends.

------------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE GAME
------------------------------------------------
DOOM is a fast-paced first-person shooter where you fight against monsters and rival players across custom maps.
- Deathmatch (DM): Free-for-all battles
- Team Deathmatch (TDM): Work with your team to defeat the opposing team
- Cooperative (COOP): Work together to complete custom maps and campaigns

This LAN edition uses Freedoom, a free replacement for the original DOOM IWADs, and Zandronum for enhanced multiplayer support.

------------------------------------------------
HOW TO LAUNCH
------------------------------------------------
1. Double-click **startgame.bat** to launch the DOOM Launcher Menu.
2. Choose one of the following options:

[1] Play Local
- Starts Zandronum in single-player or offline mode.
- Use this to practice maps or play without a network connection.

[2] Play Online / LAN
- Launches **Doomseeker**, a server browser and launcher.
- Doomseeker automatically finds LAN and online servers for Zandronum.
- Easily join games, manage WAD/PWAD files, and view server information without manually entering IP addresses.

[3] Start DM Dedicated Server
- Starts a dedicated Deathmatch server.
- The server hostname and web URL are automatically set to the computer's name.
- Players on your LAN can now join this DM server via Doomseeker.

[4] Start TDM Dedicated Server
- Starts a dedicated Team Deathmatch server.
- Use this for team-based LAN battles.

[5] Start COOP Dedicated Server
- Starts a cooperative map server.
- Allows players to team up to complete maps together.

------------------------------------------------
FOLDER STRUCTURE
------------------------------------------------
- zandronum.exe -> Zandronum engine

TIPS
------------------------------------------------
- Ensure all PWADs or custom maps are in the same folder as the IWAD or referenced in the server batch.
- Always run dedicated servers via the launcher to set hostnames dynamically.
- Use Doomseeker to discover servers and join games without manually entering IPs.
- Maximum players for each server are set in the batch files (usually 64).

Enjoy the mayhem, and may your aim be true!
