- You've watched Rollerblade, you've played Mortal Kombat,
- and now: the most violent sport EVVVVEEERRRRR!!!!! (echo effect)
-
- DOOM HOCKEY!!!!!!!! by Seth Cohn (all right reserved!!!)
- (version 1.0)
-
- No whimpy old puck, we use genuine living people!!!! (properly
- armored as to avoid nasty corpses)
-
- No penalties at all!!! (Use that BFG slapshot on the opponent!!!)
-
- No scoring!! (well, you can keep track of it...)
-
-
- This game can be played with 1-4 players. 1 player is a practice game,
- 2 players is man on man, 3 players is 2 on 1, and 4 players is WAY COOL!
-
- You begin in your locker room. Grab your weapons (one of each type) and
- go to the closed entries. There are 2 doors: each door can only be opened
- from one team's side, so neither team can hit the ice before the other.
- From the moment the doors open, gameplay begins!
-
- The 'puck' (well we call him 'Puck' cause he's short and green...) is in the
- center. Blast the puck into the opposing team's goal using any weapon you
- want. Shotgun play him! Rocket him! Chaingun him! Plasma him! Even BFG him!
- The only thing that counts is getting him into the goal... If your
- opponent has the puck, steal it, blast him, anything, just don't let him
- score with it!!!!
-
- Whne the puck hits the goal, it vanishes to reappear back in center court.
- Depending on how you want to play, you can either all go back to the blue
- spots and from there, begin, OR play free for all, and anything goes!!!
-
- WARNING: Entering the goal _real_ close to where the puck has entered MAY
- teleport you as well into the SAME spot, causing a nasty space time flux
- which renders you both dead and causes the game to be forfeited to
- the opposing team...
-
- Each goal scores one point, and when all the ammo is gone, the game is over
- (or it's half over, depending on how you want to play...)
-
- Winner takes all!!!! Go for it!!!
-
- The teams tonight: The Radical Radiations!!! - They're DANGEROUS!!!
- vs.
- The Stomping Stopsigns!!! - Stop them before they kill again!
-
- Play instructions:
-
- 1 player: Run, and since you can get out of the locker room, type idspispopd
- to walk thru the wall, then type it again to turn that off.
- You can run this without patching the doom .exe if you also turn on iddqd
- and probably using idkfa as you run out of stuff...
-
- Multiplayer: You MUST MUST MUST run the patch included. Thanks to the
- author of this patch, we can play DOOM Hockey!!!! Make sure you back up
- the doom .exe BEFORE you run this patch, just in case. This patch gives you
- godmode and makes any ammo you pick up worth a lot more. Run a net or modem
- game, and go to it.
-
- Technotes: 1) You must apply the patch to all machines runnings. Failure to
- do so will cause inconsistancy failures. So you cannot use this
- patch to cheat on a net game.
- 2) The entire level was rewritten to avoid the infamous doom
- HOM bug. I had to remove a bunch of 2 sided lines to bring the
- Hall of Mirror effect under control. Thus things aren't as
- smooth as I'd like, but game play is unaffected.
- 3) I had plans for a penalty box, but decided there was no point
- to it, and had plans for the crowd to do the wave, but again the
- HOM effect made this difficult...
- 4) I discovered that you can't make multiple doors which open by
- opening the door nearest you. You can only trigger multidoors
- by setting up linedefs you walk over.
- 5) I made the teleport more complex, to avoid the deadly teleport
- effect more often, and added linedefs futher back, since I was
- able to shoot the puck once in while past the first set of lines.
- 6) Hope everything is bug free. Took forever to recode this thing.

- Doom is c. and trademarked by id software, and that should cover everything.
-
- Thanks to the folks on IRC, the many other folks who have made doing this
- possible (id, the authors of DEU, the other people who contributed to
- figuring out the wad file stuff), my brother Dale and others for betatesting,
- and most of all, whoever at id made the decision that multiple players of
- one number would show up and be moveable...
-
- Seth Cohn, email me at scohn@nyx.cs.du.edu with bugs, thanks, money, whatever.
