Step #1: Get RanDOOM 1.6, now available at ocf.unt.edu.

Step #2: Put RanDOOM 1.6 on all machines, and make SURE all of you are
starting from "stock" WAD files. Then run RanDOOM on all
machines with the SAME command line parameters, including the
-C <random seed value>. The reult will be identical RANDOOM.WAD
files on all machines.

Step #3: Run DOOM with a -file randoom.wad on the command line on all
machines. VOILA! RanDOOMized net play!
