While a small number of the commits (between 1.2 and 1.3 versions) are restored from unpacking "sharddx.ipk3" file which was freely available and had BSD 3-Clause License file inside of it (MD5 of "sharddx.ipk3" file - 8c440d70aa2b50eeccd401c6058e4fcc | SHA256 of "sharddx.ipk3" file - a0cb6336810f9e42f2de4b016a0900cebbc8cc049727efbec8ed9951aebf355c).

• These commits are marked with (restored from sharddx.ipk3) in git history.

How to play:

1. Download "scoot_hard_dx.ipk3" file from release page.
   • Or alternatively compress the contents of this repository into "scoot_hard_dx.ipk3" file yourself.
     • You can do so with this 7-zip console command 7z a -r -mx9 -tzip "-xr!.git" scoot_hard_dx.ipk3 .\*
2. Run it with UZDoom . This mod DOES NOT require Doom's iwads (i.e. you don't need paid Doom assets)!
   • You can take different approaches to run "scoot_hard_dx.ipk3" file:
     • Place it near "uzdoom.exe" and simply run "uzdoom.exe" like any other program. After that select "Scoot Hard DX" in uzdoom's "game file to run" GUI.
     • Supply it as command line argument for "uzdoom.exe" like this - "absolute_path_to\uzdoom.exe" -IWAD "absolute_path_to\scoot_hard_dx.ipk3". In such a way you can create desktop shortcut for quick launch.
     • Place it inside folder in which your mod manager automatically searches for iwads. For example, for DoomModLoader it is a .\FILE\IWAD\ folder (same goes for uzdoom files, place them inside .\FILE\PORT\UZDoom\). After that, starting the game via DoomModLoader GUI should be straightforward.
3. If you have visual or fps problems - try to switch Rendering API in settings and restart the game (Vulkan and OpenGL seem to work fine).
