Alright. Just dug through the thread and found a functional download link if anyone's interested. Also, I definitely take back my statement about everyone being credited for their work.

Rather Dashing posted:Just want to point out that GOG often put a huge amount of effort into getting old games working, as described in this excellent article on the aforementioned evil RPS. They don't just pick up games that are already working. I remember it took them a couple of years, I think, to put out Carmageddon 2 for modern systems after picking up the rights as the thing was a mess.

They had me at that super-auto shotgun at 2:30, or whatever the gently caress that is. Good golly Anyway, Rupert Buttermilk posted:Typing in IDKFA in Demonsteele is supposed to give you BD weapons as welll... Right? Is this normal behaviour? Is my copy of Doom/Demonsteele/BD.... haunted?!?

I just realized that I tend to opt for CCMD cheats like "GIVE WEAPONS", "GOD" or "NOCLIP" over typing in the old classic IDKFA/IDDQD/IDSPISPOPD or similar when playing in GZDoom. Not sure how to feel about that.

I used to know cheats to Doom/Duke/Quake better than names of my classmates. Nowadays I only remember idkfa and iddqd, so whenever I get stuck in some vast Duke3D map, I type those cheats via muscle memory and stare blankly at monitor, marvelling at my bad memory.

LogicalFallacy posted:I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say you've either got some launcher code you forgot about or you forgot to clear ZDL's external files. Well, I play games on the same mac that I do audio work, they're just on two separate partitions. Last night, rather than reboot and load up my games partition, I tried to see if GZDoom would be able to be run from the audio side of things. It did, but this happened. I doubt it would have occurred if I had loaded it up normally. Some of the options were changed, too, like how shift wasn't my dash key, ctrl was, and how my mouse wasn't set to be useable from the menu, when I've always set it to be.

Any tips for running Jedi Knight on Windows 10? I finally got 3D Acceleration to work using something called dgVoodoo (was getting crashes, or HUD + black screen before that). The game still looks a bit choppy though. Is it pretty much locked at ~30fps or can that be improved?

I think it's an acronym for something but I forget. thereisnotry is level skip, invincibility is jediwannabe 0/1 if I recall correctly. red5 for all weapons and wamprat for all items.

I had floppy with savegames from my friend who completed the whole game, it was weird loading one of them and finding yourself in room full of corpses, with ominous boss music playing in background. Of course, in the next room there was a boss, ready to wipe the floor with 7-year old me. Good times.

This mod was clearly the reason why DUMP was required to not modify the weapons or monsters - so this masterpiece can modify them instead. (But seriously, Hardcore Doom Wars meets either DUMP sounds hilarious and painful.)

Does Chocolate Doom normalize audio or something? I'm noticing that music is louder when sound is quiet and vice versa

Edit: Shadow Hog posted:NTHGTHDGDCRTDTRK Trivia that everyone probably knows already: the cheats in the first Turok game are just phrases spelled only with the letters available in the game's cheat menu. This one is "On the eighth day, God created Turok." My favorites are Disco Mode (SNFFRR) and Fly Mode (essentially no-clip, LKMBRD), which stand for "Saturday night fever forever" and "Like my bird?" respectively.

While we're talking cheats, Shadows of the Empire for N64 had a ridiculous one that required holding down all of the buttons on the controller (pushing them down in a certain order!) and then carefully manipulating the directional stick like a loving dial on a safe. Once you figure out the only possible way to hold the controller in order for your fingers to reach the required buttons, you are basically forced to use your tongue to manipulate the stick. That loving game.

Shadow Hog posted:Yeah, that's how I wrote it. Didn't play Turok back in the day (no N64 at the time - hell, little interest in FPS titles at the time, that came later), I just remembered it had this ridiculous cheat code that nobody could easily remember until somebody pointed out it was some phrase without vowels. Us real Turok fans memorized all the codes before we found that out

That loving game. To be fair, the debug code was probably easier to input on the prototype n64 controller that used, which was reportedly an SNES controller and a seperate joystick.

I might be thinking of a different game but I think Shadows of the Empire is the one where Nintendo made the developers stick their hands into a box to operate the prototype N64 controller because they didn't want people seeing it and stealing/leaking their design.

This is actually because, by this point, Nintendo knew the N64 controller was a stupid piece of poo poo and they were petrified of losing flagship developers by needlessly exposing them to it.
