Hello, i'm ethan. i enjoy playing deathmatch so much that i had a second line and modem installed in the computer so i can play 3-way doom without the expense of a network. "How does he do that?", One may ask. "And will he be the next great mind of the 21st century?" Possibly, but not for those reasons. i just downloaded JServe.
What is JServe? It's a program that allows the user to play id software's games with more than 2 players without a network.
It can be used with Doom, Doom2, Final Doom, Hexxen, and Heretic.
Three and four player games are conducted through use of combinations of either serial links or modems or both.
It is just as useful and fast as id's SerSetup in normal 2-player games if not moreso.
It has very nifty chat function that allows players
to get psyched before the action and exchange commentary after the battle.
Though i am not responsible for the brute technology of the setup, i have made interface with it much more convinient, appealing, even powerful, with the development of sit!, my first executable program (the others were batch files).
What Is sit!? It's an excellent front end program for JServe. Ok, it's probably the only front end for JServe. But it's still great.
sit!'s Features Include:
It supports every command-line parameter that affects game play in doom that i know of.
It also supports all the options in the 'jserve.cfg' file and writes a new one for you automatically every time you play to fit your current preferences.
It has a cool opening screen made of ansi graphics and sounds that really aren't that annoying.
It will tell you how many minutes you have been playing after the game is over.
A random level generator will pick a level for you when you just can't decide.
It is interchangeably compatible with both Doom2 and Final Doom.
Also try situp, an earlier Doom modem application of mine. Yes, it is a batch file, but it's good.
Trust me. A
further description of sit and situp are available at the History Of sit! Page.
