- DOOMSAFE(TM) Version 1.02 - (C)Copyright 1993,1994 Ramco van de Woestijne
-
- DOOMSAFE version 1.02 is a safe DOOM save file editor.
- Supports keyboard and mouse, DOOM v0.99, v1.1 and v1.2 savefiles
- and provides easy access to options not available in the normal
- game and/or other editors.
-
- WHAT?! Yet Another Doom Savegame Editor?
- Nowadays everyone seems to write a savegame editor, it's not that
- hard, I know, DOOMSAFE was one of the first, and now with the
- arrival of the 1.2 DOOM version, and its NIGHTMARE mode, a new
- version is completely justified. Because the built-in DOOM cheat
- keys, are no longer sufficient, we need ammo and we need it quick!
-
-
- =========
- CONTROLS:
- =========
-
- DOOMSAFE supports 2 modes of control: Interactive and Commandline
-
- INTERACTIVE:
- ------------
-
- KEYBOARD:
-
- TAB : Go to next window
- SHIFT+TAB : Go to previous window
- SPACE,ENTER : Toggle checkboxes
- ARROW UP : Go to previous item in window
- ARROW DOWN : Go to next item in window
- ARROW LEFT : Decrease value of current item
- ARROW RIGHT : Increase value of current item
- ALT+A : AutoMAX (quickly maximizes scores)
- ALT+S : Save savefiles.
- ALT+X : eXit DOOMSAFE
-
- MOUSE:
-
- Just click on the area of interest to highlight item.
- Checkboxes will be toggled with the left mouse button.
- Values can be lowered with left button and increased
- with right button. Note that Timers have wrap around.
-
-
- COMMANDLINE:
- ------------
-
- DOOMSAFE [/H] [/Q] /#[OPTIONS...]
-
- /H : show DOOMSAFE help screen.
- /Q : quiet mode, do not show system messages.
-
- /# : where # is savegame 0..6: /0 = savegame 0, /1 = savegame 1
- /6 means all available savegames.
-
- /D : default values, eg: just pistol, normal ammo, no keys.
- /A : AutoMAX, quickly maximize all important values.
- /N : No Clipping Mode, walk through walls.
- /G : God Mode, become invincible.
- /C : Crawl Mode, previous known as Crawling King Snake Mode.
- /F : Freak Mode, for those that like DOOM to be more colourful.
- /S : Silver God Mode, invincible but only temporary.
- /B : Berserk Mode, with battle rage, your blows are more powerful.
- /I : Invisible, makes you harder to see!
- /R : Radiation Suit, no more problems with the green ooze.
- /V : Vision Intensifier, an alternative for Gamma Correction.
-
- Multiple Arguments are possible:
-
- DOOMSAFE /6D /2G /35A :
-
- - resets all savegames to default values.
- - sets God Mode on savegame 2.
- - savegames 3 and 5 will be AutoMAXed.
-
- ==================================
- WHAT ABOUT THE DOOMDATA DIRECTORY?
- ==================================
- In the 1.2 version of DOOM, the C:\DOOMDATA requirement is gone.
- This is the order where DOOMSAFE tries to locate the savegames.
-
- 1. The current working directory.
- 2. The directory where the DOOMDATA enviroment variable points to.
- 3. C:\DOOMDATA
-
- If you want DOOMSAFE to use savegames in another directory, just
- set the DOOMDATA environment variable.
-
- eg: SET DOOMDATA=D:\GAMES\DOOM\
-
- NOTE: if you have set the DOOMDATA variable, but the current working
- directory contains any savegames, the DOOMDATA variable will be ignored.
-
- ========================
- WHAT ABOUT THIS AUTOMAX?
- ========================
- AutoMAX, this little feature will quickly maximize scores,
- you have all weapons, maximized ammunition. Timers that
- are not below 1 minute are also maximized to 90 minutes.
- Probably the option most people use...
-
- ===================
- WHAT CAN BE EDITED?
- ===================
-
- Just take a look at the screendump below, you can see that almost
- everything can be edited...

- selected.

- » The 3rd window will let you change Health, Armour and Ammo values.
-
- Currently the Ammo values have a upper limit of 100000, Armour 1000 and
- Health can not be pumped higher than 199, more did more harm than good.

-
- - Silver God means Invulnerability, screen turns white/silverish.
- - Berserk, you can actually fist through your enemies!

- - Image Intensifier, better vision in those dark corners.
-
- » The 5th window sets various Game Modes.
-
- - No Clipping Mode lets you walk through walls.
- - God Mode makes you totally invulnerable (unlike Silver God not time based)
- - Crawl Mode lets you slither across the room very, very slowly...
- - Freak Mode play DOOM with total weird changing colours!
-
- » The 6th window enables you to have those hard-needed keys.
-
- » The 7th window shows DOOMSAFE release version, and has 3 buttons in it.
-
- - AUTO means AutoMAX current selected savegame. ALT+A
- - SAVE will update the savegames on disk. ALT+S
