Thie file describes how to set up a PPP connection to play MULTIPLAYER
QUAKE over the internet.


INSTALLATION:
-------------

Steps:

1.  Edit your config.sys file and add these lines:

    DEVICE=C:\QUAKEPPP\ETHDEV.SYS
    DEVICE=C:\QUAKEPPP\TCPIP.SYS 2048

    - You need to replace C:\QUAKEPPP above with whatever directory
      you unzipped QUAKEPPP.ZIP into.


(If you are connecting through Digital Magic Online, you can skip STEP 2)

2.  Run BWCUSTOM.EXE, go to SITE CONFIGURATION and enter in these values:
    
    IP address   : 0
    Domain Server: The address of your DNS
    Name Server  : The address of your DNS
    Gateway      : 32 Bits, gateway 0.0.0.0

    The rest of the values you can leave as is.

3.  Edit your NET.CFG file. Make sure the COM PORT and BAUD RATE are set.

4.  Reboot your system to load these drivers.



PLAYING A QUAKE GAME:
---------------------

Steps:

1. Run CONNECT.BAT
2. When you get to the PPPMENU main menu:

    - Select TERMINAL MODE
    - Type these commands:
        
        Try an INIT STRING which disables EC/DC (A DOOM init)
        (AT&F&D2&C1&M0&K0 is a good one)
        ATZ may also work, try both, find out what works best.
        ATDTxxx-xxxx (The number of your provider goes here)
                     (For DMO members it is 986-8558)
        
    - Now log in using your PPP name and Password.
      (For DMO members this is your username/ppp and regular password)

    - Now hit ALT-S to begin PPP negotiation.

3. Now you should get back to another menu, select the last option: EXIT
   and answer YES.

4. Now go run QUAKE

5. Once in QUAKE, type CONNECT xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 
   (Where xxx is replaced by the QUAKE SERVER IP ADDRESS)
   (For DMO Members this is 206.84.72.5)

6. FRAG ON!


PROBLEMS? SUPPORT? IS THIS SHIT PIRATED?
----------------------------------------

I am not providing support for this. However you can try emailing 
winter@tpf.com and maybe I'll respond. 

I downloaded all of the included drivers off of public sites, the 
kloss drivers are shareware, if you use quakeppp alot register them! 
Why not? I downloaded the B&W drivers off of B&W's public FTP site, 
therefore I assume they are PD, I downloaded the kloss drivers out 
of some other public distrubution, and some of the other .exes
included in quakeppp.zip are little things I wrote that tie the 
sucker together and make it all work. But what do I know? Any of 
this COULD be non-public domain. In that case, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE, 
don't even ask. I didn't make this stuff public, I ain't even 
distributing it. All I did was write this text file and a few of the 
exe's in here. You use it at your own risk, you distribute it at 
your own risk. Enjoy.



CONTRIBUTIONS
-------------

Nah, I don't need any money. Just say "hi" if ya see me in #quake 
and that'll make my day.
