Wad
Wad is an old
mining term for any black
manganese oxide or
hydroxide mineral-rich rock in the oxidized zone of various
ore deposits. Typically closely associated with various
iron oxides. Specific mineral varieties include
pyrolusite, lithiophorite,
nsutite, takanelite and vernadite. Wad can be considered to be the manganese equivalent to the iron
mineraloid limonite.
Doom WAD
Doom WAD is the default format of package files for the
video game Doom and its sequel
Doom II: Hell on Earth, that contain sprites, levels, and game data. WAD stands for
Where's All the Data?. Immediately after its release in 1993,
Doom attracted a sizeable following of players who created their own
mods for WAD files—packages containing
levels,
graphics, and other game data—and played a vital part in spawning the mod-making culture which is now commonplace for
first-person shooters. Thousands of WADs have been created for
Doom, ranging from single custom levels to full original games; most of these can be freely downloaded over the
Internet. Several WADs have also been released
commercially, and for some people the WAD-making
hobby became a gateway to a
professional career as a
level designer.
