Game Palace bbs
Game Palace started on 04/07/94 as a small bbs for users to obtain the
latest patches and upgrades available for PC Games. I personally got
tired of calling long distance to get the latest patch or upgrade and
figured a bbs would help. I have never ran a bbs prior to this and I
just got my first modem in December of 1993. (Yes, I'm a newbie!)
As a DOOM addict, I figured why not cater to this awesome game. There
were alot files out and more coming! I started by adding one file area
for DOOM on the board, but that wasn't enough. I now have 30 file areas
devoted to DOOM and will probably have to add more in the future.
I gained users from all over the U.S., Canada, Japan, Europe, etc.
In 2 months! The demand for DOOM had increased so much, I had to delete
alot of other files to make room on my hard drive.
Unfortunately, I only have one computer so I don't get to play as much
as I would like to.
Right now as of this writing, I have over 1,300 WADS and 260+ megs of DOOM
files online. Since I get so many new DOOM files daily, I created a
"DOOMlist" which contains all the DOOM files on Game Palace bbs. This
is updated nightly! It is called "DOOMLIST.ZIP"
Game Palace is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (USA)
(305)587-4258

Long distance users are given immediate access to the bbs and files!
There are no upload/download ratios and the bbs is FREE! Users can
be upgraded by request to allow for more time and downloads per day.

Codes (Invincibility, Ammo, etc.)
There are certain keys you can use to gain access to some wonderful
things in DOOM2. Type these while playing the game. Here they are:
IDDQD Degreelessness mode (Invincible)
IDKFA Very Happy Ammo (Full stock of weapons &
ammo)
IDBEHOLD (follow it by S, V, I, R, A, L)
S----Strength (Beserk mode)
V----Invunerability
I----Partial Invicibility
R----Radiation Suit
A----Auto Map
L----Light Amplifiers
IDCHOPPERS Gives you the Chainsaw
IDCLEV Warp (followed by Episode and Level)
IDDT Map Mode (Enter it while viewing map)
IDMYPOS X, Y Coordinates
IDCLIP No clipping (Walk through walls)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Command Lines
There are command lines within DOOM2 that can be used when intially
running the game. For more information on exactly what all of
these lines mean, pick up "The 'Official' DOOM2 FAQ" by Hank Leukart.
At the DOOM2 directory type: "DOOM2 -devparm
These can be several followed by eachother for various effects such
as warping, recording a demo, respawning monsters, or taking .PCX
screenshots.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PWADS (Addon external levels)
PWADS are external levels made by people with level editors. These
PWADS ("Patch" WADS) are inserted with the command line "-file" and
allow you to play a new level! For complete information on PWADS,
check out "The 'official' DOOM2 FAQ" by Hank Leukart or "DOOMWAD"
by Steve Huskisson. "DOOMWAD" is available at Game Palace BBS.
Hank's FAQ is available on bbs's all over and on Internet ftp sites.
(See below)
To run a PWAD file, make sure the new level is in your DOOM2 directory
and from there type:
"DOOM2 -file "
Where the xxxx is, substitute with the name of the PWAD, and include
the .WAD extension.
An example would be: "DOOM2 -file cool.wad"
You can combine PWADS in one line.
There are also sound files on PWADS that are ran the same way.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LMP (Demos)
An .lmp file is a recording of a game of DOOM2, either single player or
a deathmatch game. You can even make a recording of your favorite
PWAD file. These are fun to sit back and watch, as your friends dueled
on Deathmatch, or if you need to know where secret rooms are!
To record a demo type at the DOOM2 directory:
DOOM2 -devparm -record
Do not include the .lmp.
To record your favorite PWAD type at the DOOM2 directory:
DOOM2 -file -devparm -record
To play back the demo type at the DOOM2 directory:
DOOM2 -devparm -playdemo
or
DOOM2 -file -devparm -playdemo
