Is there a way to make a 2-player game for one computer in Doom (DOS). The reason I want a fake multiplayer is for testing purposes.

Well the only thing I know about is that you can create an one-player multi- session by starting ipxsetup.exe like this:
IPXSETUP.EXE -NODES 1 -SKILL 4 ....

but two-player games for one computer ???

That's easy. Just add the command -deathmatch(for Old-Deathmatch) or -altdeath(for Alternative Deathmatch) so that your commandline looks like this:
IPXSETUP.EXE -NODES 1 -SKILL 5 -DEATHMATCH

Have fun 😀
