Odamex networked setup

Odamex is a Doom engine that focuses on multiplayer gaming. It supports the two main Doom games (Doom and Doom II), their addons and custom WADs, as well as the Freedoom WAD. This engine doesn't support other Doom engine derived games, like Heretic/Hexen/Strife. For these games see Chocolate Doom.

The following steps are required to connect to a multiplayer game of Odamex:
 * 1) If you haven't yet, configure the Wi-Fi connection of your GCW Zero.
 * 2) From the game list, select Odamex (MP).
 * 3) Odamex's Multi Player menu will appear.
 * 4) If necessary, configure your player settings in Configure Player Settings menu.

Joining a game

 * 1) From the Multi Player menu, select Join game
 * 2) Depending on the connection type, select Join Local Servers for a local connection, or Join Internet Servers. If you know the IP of the server, but it doesn't appear on the server list, you can enter the IP manually via the Join Manually option.
 * 3) For the first two options (Join Local Servers and Join Internet Servers), select the server of choice from the list. If no servers appear on the list, make sure you and your friends have properly configured connection and/or the Access Point you're connected to offers Internet connection.

Hosting a new game

 * 1) From the Multi Player menu, select Configure Server and/or Configure Server Details, Configure Server Gameplay to set the game WAD, connection port and the server settings of choice.
 * 2) From the Multi Player menu select Server Panel to begin hosting the server. At this point other players should be able to connect to your server.
 * 3) From the Multi Player menu, select Join game, choose Join Local Servers, select your own server and connect to it.

Things to remember

 * 1) Servers might require the presence of commercial WADs (Doom, Doom II, etc.). If the connection is rejected, make sure you aren't missing a WAD.
 * 2) Some servers might offer auto-downloading of non-copyrighted WADs.
 * 3) When you host a server visible for remote (Internet) connections, don't forget to open the necessary port (10666 by default) on your local network's router.
 * 4) In case the connection drops during server connection attempt, you might be left in the Odamex console. Use  +  to kill Odamex and exit to game selection menu.
