Program: DOOMSAVER Author: Dave Nix DOOMSAVER is freeware that animates id Software's Doom characters across your screen. It works only with the registered mail-order version of Doom. DOOMSAVER contains no bitmapped graphics data from Doom. It loads all graphics from the DOOM.WAD file already on your hard-drive. Although DOOMSAVER is not a terminate-stay-resident (TSR) program, you can run it manually to act as a "screen saver". WARNING: DOOMSAVER displays all the Doom beasts and static background art. This spoils the surprise if you haven't played through all the levels yet. DOOMSAVER requires 3 parameters. 1. full path to your DOOM.WAD file 2. delay per frame (milliseconds) 3. frames before loading new graphics Example: doomsavr c:\doom\doom.wad 80 110 You can disable the beasts or the background art by adding "nobeasts" or "nobackground" as an optional last parameter. There is a pause each time new graphics are loaded from the WAD file. Hit any key to exit from DOOMSAVER. Tip: Write a one line batch file called SS.BAT (SS=screen saver, use another name if you want). The one line should look like the example above. Copy DOOMSAVR.EXE and SS.BAT somewhere in your path. Then simply enter "ss" at any command line to run DOOMSAVER. Use it when you want to leave your computer but don't want to turn it off.
