  Hmm, I might want to check it out.  I'd have to agree: ROTT pioneered 
things like CTF, "Kill the Fool with the Chicken" (in Outlaws), and a few 
things which don't even exist NOW.
  By the way, you guys need to update ROTT so it can use VESA video, or at 
least tell me how I could get it to run in 640x480.  I tried starting up ROTT 
on my P120, which has a 3D Blaster, and it was SLOW!  Even Doom II (which has 
a more complicated engine) ran faster...
PS  Talk to the 3D Realms crew on getting in a ROTT level into DNF (ideally, 
a translation of the first shareware level).  You could design it yourself, 
since it wouldn't be too complicated.
