How to run EDoomS60

Please note: explaining how to install files to your phone is not the purpose of this document. There are plenty of places on the net which describe the procedure. Also, please don't ask me how to do that.

- First copy and install EDooms60.sis to your S60 phone. Please note that the application is installed on the MMC.
- Copy the "Legacy.dat" file in the E:\Doom\ folder.
- Then copy, on your MMC, the Doom or Heretic wad file you want to use, in the E:\Doom\ folder.
- Click on the newly installed EDoomS60 application and select "Play" from the main menu to launch the game.
By using the "command line" menu item, you can add command line parameters (like "-file " to launch external PWADs). This command line will be saved in the "edoomcmdline.ini" file. So next time you will launch EDoomS60 this command line will still be active. To remove parameters, simply delete the file, or enter an empty command line.
Also note that all external files need to be in the E:\Doom\ folder.

You can change screen display modes by using the ingame menu. There are 3 choices : rotated left landscape, rotated right landscape and portrait mode. In "portrait" mode, you can use the phone "shift" key + the phone joystick to scroll the view.
