After getting the boot, look at the game you were the most proud of being symbolically executed in a "super-secret level" of your former friends' next game.

Goddamn, I never thought of it that way.

So I'm building a new Baby AT- Socket 7 (Intel Pentium MMX, 233MHZ) machine this weekend. Usually on my DOS rigs, in addition to having the vanilla Doom executable, I use Lee Killough's source port MBF.

I'm thinking of making some patches for it, lifting some of the rendering engines limitations a bit to make it a bit more compatible with some of the larger maps that the newer PrBoom can support. Adjustments to values in the r_*.c sources shouldn't be terribly difficult. Allegros DPMI extender should also be more fault-tolerant to memory leaks, so hopefully no Z_Malloc errors. Guess we will see if DOS plays nice.

Anybody else still play in actual DOS, or a sourceport that isn't ZDoom compatible? How about Eternity Engine or EDGE? Those source ports are interesting.
