GET READY TO FACE ALL OF KENSHIRO'S FANS IN EPIC FIGHTS !!! KENSHIRO : "Wow, sounds great, I wanna play, but what do I require to do in order to play online ?..."
SHIN : "Simply install Zdaemon on your PC :
http://lupus.keystone.gr/zdaemon10803-setup.exe (or see
http://www.Zdaemon.org for the latest version)."
KENSHIRO : "Do I require the previous pack release ?..."
SHIN : "No needs, Zdaemon servers manage their own resources automatically."
KENSHIRO : "Ok installation done, what is the next step ?"
SHIN : "Launch the program 'Zdaemon game launcher' and create a new account with your username and password."
KENSHIRO : "Ok done, there are a lot of servers in the list, which one is the right one ?"
SHIN : "See our partners' names <sl> - <noob> - <db> or look for servers using IWAD ‘Doom1' and a PWAD ‘Hokuto', you can filter them by clicking on PWAD, that will list levels alphabetically, then save them in your favorites."
KENSHIRO : "Anything else ?"
SHIN : "Nothing, just double-click a server that you want to join"
KENSHIRO : "Are there any special commands to use during the game ?"
SHIN : "Join a game by pressing the spacebar; while gaming you can communicate with players by typing 'T' and then write your text that you'll validate with the 'Enter' key."
KENSHIRO : "Owh man, sounds amazing, I found a server with some buddies and want to join right now !!"
SHIN : "Let's fight, for any other questions, refer to the HELP FAQ in the solo pack version."
KENSHIRO : "A last question, what about the September version, is it still valid ?"
SHIN : "The solo version previously released has been updated and is available at this URL :
