Q8. The Mancubian Candidate - MAP07 of Valiant - is built around a trick concept, which poses a specific requirement to the player. What is the requirement? |

When the game is booted from cd, it's not an option to write savegames and configs to the folder where the game resides.
-cdrom means these files will be written to hard drive

Right on. Also, with this parameter, the diskette icon for 'loading' is changed to a CD icon.

The answer is precise, accurate and exact.  The evil guys ("Deathkings") have names (Zedek, Traductus, Menelkir), but I'm not actually sure if the ones you meet in the expansion are supposed to be the same ones already defeated in the main campaign. Scoreboard
wernergoldberg - 2 points

Hmm. Tough pick, because Xeep answered first, but Nocksons's answer is indeed more accurate.
The unmodified Doom map, BTW, was added to DWANGO1.WAD; not sure about D!ZONE.

getting the rocket launcher secret in map01?

Granted they will not be able to get that secret, but I doubt that would stump most players who are not aware of the run button. Most of them would simply not realize a secret existed there in the first place.

switchblade is correct. It is impossible to get the red key, and therefore, complete MAP02, without running. Scoreboard

One is wrong, and one is only half-right.
In other words - there are two different shapes; it's not the same for both packages.
Feel free to try again.
