/vr/ - Retro Games

friends
how do you manage your i/pwad files when using multiple ports?
I've been a g/zdoom fag for years and with those I could set up different folders for each type within the config files, which sits nicely with my fairly moderate autism
now I've been dabbling with other source ports (prboom and forks mostly) and I've been in disarray because of this almost non-issue
care to share some ideas?

Thanks mate

is there any advantage to not use free aim with smooth doom? i feel like free aim makes the game more challenging because you have to aim along the vertical axis as well, but you also get to look down and easily snipe enemies.

what is /vr/'s opinion on sigil? i dont post on this board ever but doom is my favourite game and the sigil wad is probably my favourite map pack ever. ultra-violence felt like it was perfectly balanced and never unfair nor too easy

That's sad to hear. It seemed like a cool idea too.

>I'd normally say "Then why did he release it?" but at this point I think anything released by a Big Name™ would get some downloads.

Even if it wasn't released by a big name, I'd say in the short term at least it's interesting look into what the relatively new ZScript can do seeing how barebones the documentation is for it, and what we can learn from them.

I can't pick just one.

A bit disappointing to hear, but oh well.

What's their name, /doom/?

Making Doom maps is like writing.

Alright time to jump into a pit of Revenants

How does /doom/ handle a new megawad they haven't gone through yet? Do you complete the whole lot in one go or do it over the span of a few days/nights? Because I'm trying to go through some and I just get burned out fairly easily, which is funny since there are other games I can play for longer periods.

Do you also go out of your way to look up on how to get to the secret maps?

>>3355510
Yup, that's a pretty bad thing to happen.

Alright, so there's a whole bunch of ugly as fuck sprites, Q3 Doomguy sounds, the statusbar face somehow looks even more retarded, there's a bloated arsenal of weapons with right-click reloading, a bloated amount of inventory items, and for some reason 7 of 11 Australian servers found on Doomseeker use it.

It's not a very remarkable gameplay mod. So, what is its appeal in the Z& community?
