too bad duke3d ports netcode sucks cause dukematch or 8 player coop owns. games with more than 4 player coop should be more common like the original ghost recon.

Why do the peasants slave while the emperor gets to eat all the mung?!
in all the thousands of hours of doom across probably dozens of different ports i have only just now realized that the skill level choices have periods after them, except for nightmare which has an exclamation point

nquake for easy multiplayer and some updates to graphics

fitzquake for real basic features and a vanilla feel

darkplaces if you really want to push the graphics to modern levels, looks awesome

No prob. Darkplaces is your best bet to push the graphics side of things. There are various enhancements you can download as well like high res textures and remodeled/updated models and skins. Quake reforged is a good place to start for that. As well as just search for Darkplaces-HiRes. But, try it by itself to see if you like it.

Awright, what are the best weapon replacement mods out there, most fun, most ridiculously overpowered, most hilarious, that kinda thing.

Pirate Doom is amazing, love the cannon.

HACX has some interesting ones for sure, but I find the majority of them unsatisfying, what do you like?

Roguelike doom is another one, but it makes the game too much like diablo and the interface loving sucks.

just put in a code for all keys then, and make sure to clear the level. it won't be perfect but you'll get enough of the experience to have fun

i'm pretty sure darkplaces has 64bit executables. copy folders id1, hipnotic and rogue to darkplaces one, create 2 shortcuts of dplaces and add in comandline -game rogue and in the second one -game hipnotic, hth
