I also downloaded 9 extra wad files, which I guess are like extra game episodes. The Doom95 program will only run the original wad file which came with the game. When I try to run the game with any one of the optional wad files, the game refuses to run stating "you cannot -file shareware version. register". There is nothing here to tell me how to upgrade to the registered version. There is absolutely no information about this in the game or in the help files. > Can someone here help me with an upgrade please? > dale@tdisp.com You can get the registered version of Doom from ID Software: http://www.idsoftware.com/games/doom/doom-ultimate/ Or you can probably use the freeware Prboom: http://prboom.sourceforge.net/
