SETUP NOTES :
-------------------------
Unzip RUINS.ZIP to your DOOM2 directory, open a DOS prompt in
the same directory, and type: ruins
EDGE 1.25 will have MP3 support, EDGE 1.24 does not.
However, you can load an MP3 player, like Winamp, play RUINS.MP3
in a loop, then run RUINS. Most PCI sound cards (like a Sound
Blaster Live! sound card) can handle the resource sharing.
