there are 2 parts to getting Doom etc to run.

1) the Mobile exe (installed via the cab file) this is the game that actually runs

2) the WAD file is the resource that the game reads to get the level, maps, graphics etc. This file is copied directly from your LICENCED PC install of Doom2 (or whatever)

install the cab
copy the wad
run the program on the PPC
