Misc. Author Info       : I'm a Doom fan from Chile, and this is my first project. Since there wasn't anything like Doom It for Chocolate Doom, I decided to create a menu for the Master Levels, but as development progressed, I had the idea to add other details to the project.

Description             : Choco-Master-Menu is a launcher created for Chocolate Doom. The main idea was to create a menu for the Master Levels because there isn't anything like Doom-it for this source port. As development progressed, additional features were added, such as single-player, cooperative and deathmatch multiplayer setup support, custom WAD loading, DEH file support, Maximum Doom organization, demo recording, and more. The launcher was developed using C#.

Note: This update fixes a mix-up with a parallel project (Crispy-Master-Menu) where the menu strings were incorrectly assigned.

Additional Credits to   : Thanks to Peter Lawrence for allowing me to use the Master MIDI Pack for the menu.
