arcsig posted:That doesn't necessarily mean we don't need a source port, though. I mean even if Doom.exe still ran on modern windows, people would still play GZDoom. Because there's modding support in the Doom engine which really ain't there for Hover. I think I saw someone who hacked up new Hover levels back in 2001 for it but I don't have them anymore.

Commander Keenan posted:Just give me a Necrodome source port. Oh yes. I'm actually eyeing an auction with boxed copy of Necrodome, and checked if my old ThinkPad with XP SP3 runs it, and while it runs, the inputs have horrible lag and there's something wrong with palette. While I'm preparing an old Pentium 133mhz with Windows 98 just for those janky early 3D Windows games, I'd really love to see a sourceport... or a proper re-release, because the game's quite rare. Also, speaking of rare games and Raven - did anyone here played Shadowcaster for longer period of time?

So Adventures of Square could be an actual commercial release?

Yes. The Doom community is cock full of imaginative people and insanely good wad authors, I'm really interested in seeing what else people come up with. Not gonna lie, I'd pay cash money for anything Xaser or Weasel make.

I want a full release of Project MSX with it's own space enemies and levels designed around nuke punching and that stuff.

The cynic in me says the first thing that'd be sold is a mapset with Brutal Doom built-in, featuring heavily-reworked art assets. Although given how slow FreeDoom's gotten its art assets in gear, this cynicism is probably misplaced.

I don't remember much (I never played it, but my dad did), but I remember thinking it was so awesome. I'd love to play it at some point.

I assume you mean "chock" here, but I'll accept this as a much needed evolution of the English language.

Yeah, so many gameplay mods are just begging for official map-packs. Really quite interesting to see how the Brutal Doom official pack is split up - standalone maps, mini-episodes or what?

Okay finally got around to reinstalling Quake and setting up Quakespasm and so far it's working really well, I'll eventually need to get around to grabbing some additional SP addons(like that one X-Men Total Conversion) and installing those Quake Expansions I bought last month as well after I beat the Campaign(and maybe the Mission Packs as well)

I've missed that feeling of being lost in a FPS level. Can't derail in a mordern FPS.

While I don't like being railroaded(unless it's done in a cool manner), I'm definitely not a fan of getting lost in old FPS's, although Doom(and other idTech 1 games) is the only one I've played recently that that becomes a big issue on a regular basis(Quake so far in comparison is a lot simpler in it's map layouts)

I distinctly recall seeing games use the term "on-line" and getting paranoid about it starting up ye olde dial-up modem to connect to some site online on the Internet, and thus avoiding its usage because I wasn't allowed to use the Internet at that point. Then looking back on it, a lot of those things they used "on-line" for weren't really online at all. Like anything made by Sierra when they were pushing some "Sierra On-Line" stuff (eg: Lode Runner Online - which does have online components, but isn't an online-only game like, say, TF2 was before Valve added bots to it, and in fact has a whole game's worth of offline content).

I think playing ProDoomer on the second hardest difficulty was a bad idea. The game is really horribly balanced. I have to savescum so much to get through encounters now because enemies do so much damage. I'm at Level 20, and most enemies kill me in 1-2 hits with 300 Health and 200 Armor.

Yeah the scaling in Prodoomer is garbage, I stopped playing at about level 12 when I noticed the same general issue. Your maximum health scales up, and so does enemy damage, but the effectiveness of healing items doesn't so it doesn't actually matter and you just end up tediously abusing the free armor spell over and over. For some reason I did push my way through the horrible level with a million archers in a flatly lit forest. The archers never miss and do a hundred damage each and can see you from across the map; meanwhile, there's all this "tall grass" by way of cheap-looking fake walls so you can't see anything. You have to save scum in Prodoomer.

There are doom wads that hate the player. There are doom wads that hate the player and everything he stands for. There are doom wads that loathe the mere idea of the player's exsistance. Then there's map 07 of the doom 2 in name only wad. This level will travel 7 generations back to wipe out your entire family line it hates you that much. .

Klaus88 posted:Then there's map 07 of the doom 2 in name only wad. For the most part it's a flat, unchallenging grind where you clear out useless enemy snipers and power through the sparse resistance that crosses your path. This is interspersed with the occasional ambush by a single vile or small cluster of mid-tier enemies, usually triggered by a switch. The area filled with revenants on various outcroppings felt like cleaning up the last stragglers in a slaughter map. The different key wings of the map could be visually confusing and difficult to navigate, but ultimately formed a linear path with the player only ever being attacked from one angle - usually head on - with plenty of safe space to retreat to. It's not all bad though. The claustrophobic multiple arch-vile fight towards the end was decent and the final fight finally puts you back in a dangerous crossfire situation. But these moments are ultimately not worth the 20 minutes of rocket spam and plodding navigation through the maze of triangles. There are plenty of excellent maps out there that are deeply hostile to the player's existence without the tedious fluff.

I'm trying to set up gzdoom so it begins each level from a pistol start for anthology megawads like 10sector and 1024. I tried creating a mapinfo that does a resetinventory and resethealth for each level, and that much works, but now all my maps are missing skyboxes. I'm new to this so I don't really know what I'm doing, any suggestions?
