PM>  Ah!  OK.  Can you do a dummy multiplayer mode just to see what it's
 PM>  like?  I know Duke3d could...
  Sure you can.  Use the "SW ?" command in DOS to find out just what the 
command is.  There's supposed to be a "Bot mode" where you can actually face 
off against the computer (as with the Duke 3D Plutonium Pak), though whether 
it's actually part of the shareware version is questionable.
 PM>  Yeah, I gotta hear about the rail gun.
 PM>  But hey, the next shareware version will be out soon, so who knows
 PM>  what may be in there.  Wish it didn't take an hour to download.  :(
  There won't be a rail gun, that's for sure.  3D Realms certainly wants to 
be careful about how much they let people experience - missing 3 of the 
cooler weapons and 18 other levels certainly does the trick.
 PM>  The full game is supposed to be about 57megs installed.  More than
 PM>  Duke, but far less than Redneck Rampage's 150megs.  Ach, 57's liveable.
 PM>  And the game play per meg will be worth it.  :)
  But on the other hand, Redneck Rampage had huge levels, with high-res 
custom textures up the Yin-Yang (pardon the reference).  I think that's the 
main reason Shadow Warrior is so "small": its textures are lower-resolution, 
and its levels are a bit smaller.
