- | ===What is Skulltag?===
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | Just what is Skulltag, you ask? Skulltag is a mod for the once and still popular game, Doom II. It features many brand new features to the game, including new items, weapons, skins, bots, levels, gameplay modes, and a whole slew of other things.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | The single player portion of ST (Skulltag) consists of two brand new scenarios: "The Mortal Conflict", an episode of deathmatch levels, accompanied with playable bots, and "Tournament of The Damned", an episode of skulltag (the gameplay mode) levels, also accompanied with (soon to be) playable bots. The multiplayer portion of ST is based on the client/server setup, in which people host game servers, and players connect to those games using a launcher, or command line parameters. This setup allows players to enter and leave games while the game is going on, as opposed to being locked into a game, and only being able to join when the game starts, (like other versions of Doom). Skulltag is comptatible with IDE, IDE Skulltag Edition (included), or Player Connector.

- | ===Why use Skulltag?===
| + | |
- | So why use Skulltag, as opposed to other ports, or doom2.exe? I'll tell you why!
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | * It's based on the amazing ZDoom, by Randy Heit.
| + | |
- | It has inherited all of ZDoom's many features; in addition, ST has an capped / uncapped framerate, the ability to play Heretic/Hexen, and much more!
| + | |
- | * Superior client/server capability!
| + | |
- | Skulltag's multiplayer was inspired by ZDaemon 1.x (created by NightFang). Skulltag is modem friendly - it's so smooth that even 56k users can play on it.
| + | |
- | * It features a ton of new content, such as maps, weapons, monsters, etc.
| + | |
- | Adding to the already incredible Doom universe! Skulltag is a melting pot for doom additions. including the STD2DM series, the STD2CTF series, and <b>30</b> new maps in the upcoming 0.97b version!
| + | |
- | * It features an in-game server browser!
| + | |
- | Now, you can go browse and join servers without the aid of a launcher! You can also switch between single player and multiplayer games with great ease.
| + | |
- | * It features maps from incredibly talented mappers!
| + | |
- | Such as Boris Iwanski, Mike Watson (Cyb), and Derek MacDonald (Afterglow).
| + | |
- | * It has the new icon/medal system!
| + | |
- | Players get awarded medals for performing great feats (such as getting 5 frags without dying), and icons that let other players know important information about yourself (if you're chatting, lagging, etc.)
| + | |
- | * It features the announcer system!
| + | |
- | A customizable announcer announces certain events throughout the game (such as when there's 3 frags left). Users can make their own announcer wads, place them in the \\ANNOUNCER directory, and users can select between the different announcer profiles (similar to skins)!
| + | |
- | * Skulltag is an all-in-one port!
| + | |
- | Skulltag can be run in single player, client, or host mode, all with one exe!
