Okay, I don't have my own web space anymore, so I figure I'll just post stuff here. Anyway, I've been fiddling with classic games lately and my latest toy is fiddling with automatically generated custom maps for Doom II.
I decided to see how crazy impossible a map I could make...and yes, I can...quite crazy and quite impossible, you can *NOT* beat it unless you cheat. Anyway, requirements include a Doom 2 wad, and ZDoom (an open source, free Doom) There is no requirement for dosbox, or any other form of doom.

Unzip that file to any directory, click and drag "customwad.wad" onto zdoom.exe. If that does *not* work, choose the right click, open with (sometimes you have to hold shift) browse to and select zdoom.exe.
It will ask you to choose an "iwad", choose the doom2 based one. Load up, choose "new game" and play this crazy crazy game.
For those who want to cheat here are the only two codes you need
IDDQD
IDKFA
And for those who want to generate their own auto-generated custom doom maps...go here
http://oblige.sourceforge.net/
ALT+ENTER pushes zdoom to windowed mode.
Caff, or ainmosni, or whoever, I wouldn't mind some upload access so I wouldn't have to use easyshare for this (it's only 7 mb!)
Note: the doom2.wad included is the RETAIL doom2.wad, you shouldn't grab it if you don't have doom2...um...purchased...
Update, it took me around 30 minutes to complete the level included in the zip.
