Was this applied to the GOG version too?

Derelict is the best Duke map, closely followed by Golden Carnage.

FACT!

>>6274218

>>6272805
Posting this also here could still use some feedback

The GZDoom launcher looks exactly the same as before. I don't see any option to load Vanilla Essence

Does anyone have experience running Yamagi Quake II on Linux? I'm a big linux noob and there isn't really a step by step it seems. I followed the steps in installation and prepped my directory, built the game and copied the corresponding files over so it looks like this, with game.so being in baseq2. However, when I try to run ./quake2 I get this output

No Ogg Vorbis music tracks have been found, so there will be no music.

combined arms is a shit mod

I don't get why some megawads get a caco Resurgence is boring as fuck, Whispers of Satan is generic as shit I feel like someone just rolls the dice and gives random shit a caco

>>6274419
why
my biggest flaw is I don't like the crate weapons

>>6274434
because it's shit

>>6274428
ikr, Romero got a caco for existing

>>6274357
I can actually just update the A_startsound to previous versions without problem

>>6274428
Remember, they're just the opinions of a couple of guys. Just treat Cacowards as "Here's some stuff you might have missed which could be worth checking out."
It's what I do.

>>6274440
There's nothing really groundbreaking about Sigil, sure, but it's good for what it is.

>>6274357
>>6274224
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1m6lPEPI86IYoLQJYJErD2nDlxaxJ57hJ
updated the mod, changes are:
Changed all the A_startsound to a_playsound for compatibility sake
also buffed somewhat the minigun projectile because we have now proper Piercing functionality (from 11 to 3 to 6 to 9).

>>6274484
Sigil isn't even what he got a Cacoward for, even though it's what deserved one. Tech Gone Bad is a nice reimagining of E1M8 and all, but Sigil managed to knock experienced Doom players on their asses without a single Revenant or Archvile. That's a notable accomplishment no matter who it came from, but especially from a person that only made two levels in the past 15 years.

>>6274046
>>6273458
>>6273476
>>6273490

Time for someone to make a Hideous Destructor Lite mod

>>6274502
That's a fair point actually.
The Buckethead music did add to the .wad in my opinion, as well.

plutonia is shit for cunts

>>6274434
What's your beef with them? Because I'm gonna be overhauling and buffing the fuck out of them, along with removing at least one of them, as I don't like the daibatana.
I'm also gonna remove the crate curse thing because it was a fucking dumb idea and I'm gonna have it use a separate ammo pool like how final doomer does it.

I'm also gonna add a CVAR to have crate weapons just turn into a more traditional BFG for those who want it.

>>6274340
The red bricks and ceiling don't fit with the friendly night blue sky.

>>6274520
Scythe Map30 really made the whole "use them too much and get debuffed" mechanic an issue. You're expected to use the BFG slot for huge crowds but getting debuffed made it feel unviable.
I'd have to try it again though to see if maybe I was just playing wrong.

>>6274540
Nah that's a definite problem. With removing the curse, that'll help matters a little. I'm probably gonna keep the reloads for the current crate weapons because I like them, but future ones may not need reloads.
One of them I'm gonna add for this update is a quad on demand at the cost of a big chunk of the new ammo type, pretty sure that'll give players the damage output of BFG spam.

>>6274201
Another Colourful Hell beta build for the brown tier is out;
https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=47980&p=1142633#p1142633

Can you guys recommend some essential mods you always use?
>>6274502
>Revenant or Archvile
These guys are such a pain in the ass.

>>6274562
Almost shat myself when I encountered my first Archvile. The design is terrifying, and that thing came out of nowhere.

Doom Builder doesn't have a button to mirror selection, only to rotate, right?

what time is it suppose to be active on Steam?

and what time can we expect Doom 64 to be active?

>>6274569
when in "edit selection mode", there's a pop-out toolbar to the right that lets you flip (and scale) your selection
however it doesn't handle floor/ceiling offsets well (see webm)

>>6274381
Thank you it works

>>6274579
I gotta get me a better doom builder.

>>6274579
also inb4 "hurf durf that's because you turned floor transforms off": turning it on just makes things worse, with the floor offsets shifting vertically on a horizontal flip and generally ending up in weird places
so if you do flip sectors around, expect to have to realign floors

>>6274434
he's an autist who hates both the old version and the rework without ever mentioning why

The Switch version of Doom 64 leaked. It has an fov slider, and seems much less buggy than EX's implementation of it.

I think each megawad should come with their own custom .cfg file.

Romero isn't very fond of Doom 2 right? I mean since the other 2 levels and Sigil are based on the first game rather than the second.

>>6274612
No weapon hotkeys like Doom 1 & 2, though. Sadly.

>>6274616

Authentic to the N64 original which also didn't have those

>>6274626
I suppose so, but Doom 64 EX added weapon hotkeys.

>>6274612
>FOV slider
That's really neat, actually. It's cool to see that consoles are finally starting to have fov sliders of their own, even if I don't really understand the point (except for the switch in this case cus youd prolly play it closer to your face than a tv).
What's the max FOV by the way?

>>6274630
There are no numbers, it's just a slider. This is what it looks like on the widest setting.
This game also has an obnoxious amount of unskippable intro videos.

>>6274612
Is there any info on the specifics of the new levels? Are there any similarities to 64EX?

First for fuck doom eternal

>>6274641
I guess you need to unlock the new levels because there's no episode select. I should find a list of passwords to skip to the final level.
I haven't actually played it very much. Surprisingly, this port even has AA and filtering options.

>>6274639
Fresh Supply did the same thing too I think, every time you booted it up it played the Nightdive intro and one or two others

>>6274647
Yup. Bethesda intro, id intro, Night Dive intro, KEX Engine intro, then the actual Doom 64 intro that can be skipped.

i miss the op who had all the great puns

>>6273671
probably because the light diminishing is a lot stronger than gzdoom's default, so . but gzdoom does have hardware rendering modes that are more similar to vanilla
>>6274348
zandronum

>>6274630
>It's cool to see that consoles are finally starting to have fov sliders of their own, even if I don't really understand the point
An increasing number of people are using computer monitors for their consoles I'd imagine.

>>6274656
*so faraway areas fade to myterious darkness quickly

Is it humanly possible to have fun in doom before you get a shotgun?

>>6273671
>why is Vanilla (Chocolate) Doom actually so much scarier than if I were playing it through GZDoom
It's the resolution. DOOM was designed for 200p and it makes monsters harder to see. If an enemy is far away you'll only see a few pixels, and combined with lighting it makes you unsure what you're actually up against sometimes. If you're playing GZDoom with brightmaps on then that only exacerbates the issue since you can even more easily see enemies in the dark where they're meant to be obscured.
You can get the oldschool look in GZDoom with Vanilla Essence, by the way.

>>6274670
if you melee everything

>>6274670
You can absolutely have fun without a shotgun - you just need to grab a berserk.

>>6274670
You get it in e1m1

>>6274670
These gameplay mods pull it off easily:

demonsteele
GMOTA as Doomslayer
Combined Arms
final doomer
dakka
burl tumd
trailblazer
Guncaster
Naku Naru
High Noon Drifter
Booster

>>6274663
Fair point actually. Id imagine though they'd start doing it a while back when monitors with HDMI became commonplace (early 2010s, but correct me if I'm wrong about this), and I think fov sliders in console games only started with the current gen versions of GTA V

>>6274670
There are some levels that don't put a shotgun in the level at all and force you to use weapons like the chaingun and rocket launcher at all times, and those are fun.

>>6274197
I love reading game reviews' comment sections.

>>6274670
MAP01 of Evilution lets you run around in close quarters, punching imps and zombies with berserk

>>6274681
I think that may simply be due to supply lagging after demand. Also, there's probably very few people who request the feature relatively speaking, so it may be down to whether the guy in charge for such things in the studio personally cares about extensive user preference settings.

I'd by the way like to go on a side rant. PC game devs: lots of people have multiple monitors and sound devices now. For the the love of god allow me to set which audio device and monitor the game should use.

>>6274641
After using one of the passwords to unlock the features menu, I was able to select the "Lost Mission" episode when starting a new game.
The password was ?TJL BDFW BFGV JVVB

Just found out about Blood: Fresh Supply. Are there similar rereleases of great old games? I know about Doom ones on steam but they are clearly worse than just playing respective WADs.

>>6274696
Unrelated to your rant, but why in the name of fuck do modern FPS games, even ones that are retro throwbacks like Dusk, have next weapon and previous weapon bound to mousewheel up and down respectively and not the other way around? Up has always been for previous weapon and down for next cus it just feels natural. I can maybe understand inverted controls to an extent, but I have literally have no idea why most FPS devs do that for weapon selection. I'm more than positive that no one has trouble using a goddamn mouse wheel to change weapons.

>>6274720
Was it? It feels natural that up is forward.

>>6274720
It fucks with me when scrolling the mousewheel DOWN selects my NEXT weapon. I always go in and flip that shit.

>>6273886
It's not that it's *hard* or anything, even that exit trap. It's just scary as shit when playing in Chocolate. At least Sandy isn't so much of a cunt that he didn't litter the map in light amplification visors

>>6274720
I don't like that either, but I rarely care about default controls in any game because I always tweak them. For example, in any movement based FPS I always use mouse2 for jump rather than space.

Human BBQ 2

>>6274723
Yeah, for a good while at least it was always down for next weapon and up for previous. I think around the mid 2010s most games flipped it by default for some reason. Honestly though, it's not a big deal since I just rebind it anyway, but I literally have no idea why the default bindings for it changed and why it caught on.

>>6274720
I can see an argument for both ways. I do prefer up = next weapon, though.

>>6274512
>filtered by map 11

>>6274778
I've never understood why Hunted was so hated
I get that it's a very memorable map, it uses the Bunny song and is literally a maze with only archviles, but it isn't ridiculous or anything
All you have to do is not rush around and wake them all up, just go slowly, encounter one vile, and use the SSG while reloading behind a corner

I feel superior to everyone else since I keep doom sound settings set so that music is 3 tics higher than sfx

>>6274214
yes

I'm trying to get authentic Blood experience playing Fresh Supply. Did it have free mouse movement or just horizontal? What about crosshair?

>>6274785
Some people can't cope with viles, I guess.

>>6274829
>I'm trying to get authentic Blood experience playing Fresh Supply
You're already on the wrong path.

>>6274832
Well I'm not gonna be autistic about it and launch it through prompt is MS Dos emulator or some shit. But as far as the gameplay goes I want it to be as it was meant to be played. *swoosh! Whispered: NVIDIA*

>>6274829
Also, could anybody give me a rundown on difficulty settings? Like in terms of Doom, what's Well Done, what's ready to be served?

>>6274742
This is only map 2, and I'm still on it. 64's Pain Elementals and Arachnotrons are just mean together. The difficulty is definitely cranked up from vanilla Doom 64.

>>6274843
>Well I'm not gonna be autistic about it and launch it through prompt is MS Dos emulator or some shit.
Just get BuildGDX then. It's easy to use.
Plus you can't claim to want authentic and then play a remake made in another engine.

>>6274742
Whats this? New map from the D64 re-release? Or a vanilla map i forgot? Or a map of your own creation?

>>6274857
It's one of the new official maps.

>>6274829
>>6274847
Download BloodGDX and play the game that way. It has almost all the features of FS and more, all while being free and more accurate.
As for difficulty, lightly broiled is a good start. Well done has extremely accurate/fast hitscanners and practically requires foreknowledge of the game to have fun.

any ribbiks-esque wads?

So I wanted to make a map split into two independent halves, one has only zombies and the other has no zombies. Is this a gimmick that can work?

>>6274861
there's a leaked version?

>>6274872
For the Switch, yeah. But I assume Aussies have it by now legitimately.

I must say Memento Mori is a piece of shit and Hell Revealed sucks

>>6274843
Don't bother with DosBox, it's not as accurate or trouble free as some purists will insist, Blood has some quirks for a few functions, in that they're tied to your clockspeed, and DosBox will not bypass them.
For instance, the severed Evil Dead 2 hands grab onto your throat and try to choke you, and you're supposed to mash your use key to pull them off you, but because your computer is from 25+ years into the future you will die instantly instead of gradually.

Use BloodGDX or BuildGDX to play Blood instead, it's built partially on leaked Alpha code, as opposed to Fresh Supply, which was hurriedly approximated from the ground up, getting like halfway to authentic before Atari told Nightdive: "That's enough, we don't want to spend any more money." and thus it's left unfinished and inauthentic.

>>6274887
>DosBox will not bypass them
Not a DOS purist, I play Blood via BuildGDX, but do you know if any of these issues can be circumvented with any of the DOSBox forks?

the idea of doomguy talking already existed in doom 2 rpg, doom resurrection, some quake easter egg in some port's secret comic and cut quake 3 lines in another console port, but otherwise it feels dumb to break silence just to say some comic book lines
at least the voice is better than what you hear in stuff like brutal doom

if you give a damn about doom's lore you're probably mentally handicapped

>>6274936
Don't be so mean. They just want to fit in somehow being filtered by the first map of Doom.

When trying to activate a linedef that moves floors and ceilings, do I always need to wait for it to stop first or is it more complex than this?

>>6274369
Seriously, am I the only one who thinks that Security Officer's lines are sad as fuck?

>>6274931
>at least the voice is better than what you hear in stuff like brutal doom
that voice was meant to sound like the doomguy from the comic
aka over the top

>>6274960
He's just being a whiner.

>missing super secret easter egg in Breakdown was not added to the re-release of Doom 64.

I was really counting on them adding it back in.

>>6275008
Which one is that? Remember the name of the map and the fact that there was a "super secret secret" but forgot what is it

>>6274673
Hate how everyone dismisses specters as laughably easy to see, when in vanilla they were actually hard to spot and quite a threat if you let your guard down.

>>6275013
Map 20: Breakdown was meant to have a super secret in it. Turns out that it was removed during development, but areas of the map file were tagged implying that they were probably at one point used in the secret. Doom 64 fan recreations often allude to this secret by adding an elaborate and long winded secret to this map, but we've never known what the original secret was. I was really hoping they'd actually add in in with this re-release.

>>6275042
Kaiser spoke about it before
https://doom64ex.wordpress.com/2014/06/30/the-mysterious-easter-egg-that-never-was/

>>6274502
Sigil would have gotten a cacoward if it had been made by a random Doomworld edgelord instead of Romero. It's much better than any of the UDoom wannabe episodes, including NEIS, Fava Beans or the overrated DTWID. It had character, every level looked different and offerend new novel challenges, they had a sense of place, combat was interesting with the movement restriction, challenge came without AVs or Revs. Snubbing Sigil showed Doomworld's hopeless arrogance and tranny retardation. They only care about those Hell Revealed style wads with annoying toothpaste colours, and wads made by the """community""" darlings.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5kN8XEshXw&feature=youtu.be

Holy shit this looks amazing. I didn't realize there were any modders for this game outside of that one Duke game

Why was there never a PortaDOOM for the 2019 Cacowards?

>>6275087
Shit, that looks fucking fantastic.

Tank controls

Yay or nay?

>>6275085
Then why did Romero get a solid Cacoward for E1M4b and E1M8b?

>>6275093
In Doom? No way.

>>6274785
I hate hunted because mazes suck, and I always get tripped up by the trigger lines that lower walls.
Fighting archies is always fun though

>>6275085
Ridiculous opinions.

>>6275085
Everytime Sigil is brought up this guys posts this kind of nonsense, and i cant tell if its a genuine autist or persistent troll.
>>6274861
So uh.... Any leaks yet? Of D64 that is

>>6275093
Don't care for them much, but they're bearable in first person or true third person.
I don't think they're particularly good with a fixed camera, only tolerable.

Does someone have that brutal doom pic?

>>6274989
I don't think any of the other characters have suffered nearly as much as he has

>>6275132
Be more specific.

why sgt mark doesn't like eternal?

>>6275152
Proof.

Just want to buy Doom 64 on Steam, seems like you can't buy it separately.

>>6275152
Because he's not epic like us

Can you recommend me some cool megawads and gameplay mods for Doom 2016? Are they going to be compatible with Doom Eternal?

>>6275152
Who?

>>6275139
Well, I think it was a long pic about doom generals in /vr/

>>6275168
This one?

Man it feels so weird that a game with 64 on the title can be bought outside of a Nintendo console.
Why the hell the devs decided to follow that dumb trend of splatting 64 in the title,despite not even being a port?

>>6275171
Yes, I think it's this one
Thanks!

>>6275173
What would they have called it instead? Even though its not a traditional port the whole point was just to make doom for the n64

>>6275087
Damn impressive

>>6275192
There were other subtitles for the game but eventually dropped.
Maybe it would've sold more because many assumed it was just a port.

>layton stomping on hexen
just beat it for the first time, i get the frustratino, but I never had to look up anything, so I guess it's not that bad. took me a while to realize you'll need to leave and revisit maps though.
Also, Colorful Hell has a shotgun angel very similar in design to that thing, probably intentional?

Doing a pistol start UV playthrough of doom for the first time. Havin a good time so far.

>>6275171
When this was made anyway?
This needs an update considering things got a lot worse lately.

>>6275274
2014

>>6275267
get that gay source port out of here and use prboom+ like a normal person, christ

>>6275294
Ahh, gzdoom isnt cool anymore, huh? When did that happen?

Holy shit this level. I was shaking with excitement, what a rush.

>>6275220
The Voodoo Doll scripting is impressive, but it's also a Rube Goldberg way of scripting, a gameplay mod can easily break the scripted sequences.

So I know you can summon monsters from other games in gzdoom (like the heretic minotaur) but they are invisible cause their assets aren't loaded or whatever. How would I go about doing that, like just find a mod that adds those monsters into Doom?
I just want to see a cyberdemon fight a minotaur.

>>6275293
wait, 2014? I had the impression that this was made in 15 or 16, given the god of shotguns is in it.

Well this is interesting and I'm willing to give it a shot. How do I disable mouse movement? Also are my only option to play windowed with tiny resolution or to play fullscreen with horribly stretched textures?

I'm pretty sure it was made in 2014 because the panel with /v/ reminds me of when we didn't even know what Doom 4 actually looked like yet except for those who were at QuakeCon 2014, since they had a private showing for attendees only.

Time flies, man.

This is a joke right? You guys don't actually hate Brutal Doom right?

Which WADs do you guys play with mods like Trailblazer, CombinedArms etc?

The GMOTA video started as a glorified excuse to shill our boy Kegan since I heard he was going through some hard times, Tex even lent his voice for the intro, with his whiskey soaked radio flair encouraging the viewer to support him and their favorite modders.

Thing is the way things are going right now it seems like a good chunk of people are going to go into some hard times real soon if they are not already, hell even here the government just declared full quarantine and we have like 100 cases.
Should have started this a sooner, dangit.

I dunno, should I pull the trigger and finish it within today-tomorrow? should I just cram content in and have a video more in the lines of: "here's three cool Doom mods you can play while you are bunkered up and hopefully comfy?" I have a bunch of Space Hunter and Combined Arms footage lined up, I could go from a 5-7 minute video into the 10+ minute mark.
Hope you anons are doing alright, at least those of you who are not surrounded by maybe totally justified paranoia.


I didn't think this was going to end in a rain of patreon bucks anyways, since we would not be pulling battletech numbers, but now the prospect seems reduced. I'm sorry man..

>>6275372
Might as well go all out and condense the shilling into one video and be done with it, then you could focus on other modders and their work.

>>6275375
Modder spotlights were a thing I was planning since the first video actually, I still have some of the usual suspects lined up for future projects.

>>6274936
>>6274938
?

>>6275386
Good man, you keep up the good work, it'll be good to see more indepth and knowledgeable coverage of mods by someone who can put the extra time and care into it.
I certainly appreciate what you're doing, your heart is in the right place

>>6275386
Sounds interesting. Mod spotlight videos without some guy talking over them are few and far between since Marv fucking died.
DRLA when?

>>6275336
Shieeet,that makes me feel old. The fact 2014 was 6 years ago. A lot of people we are now predominant in the fanbase were completely unknown.

I kinda miss those days but not just Doom,in general.

>>6275309
That's pretty much it.I like Project Brutality but it's unplayable with Going Down. I've tried like 6 times before giving up.
I've found one playing it with PB but it was an older version and went through with Quad Damage,which is the ultimate ass-pull in that case.

Which Total Conversions are your favourites?

>>6275424
I miss the days when there weren't so many damn gameplay mods in the first place and it was all vanilla play maps. I'm not sure how the Doom community even managed to hang on during the 2000s, until the Beautiful/Brutal doom renaissance.

>>6275393
You be well and take care of yourself you fuck you can die on me only after the tech monk, the furry and maybe an intermission comeback

>>6275406
never actually played that much DRLA, I should give it a whirl with oblige and pretend I'm palying first person DoomRL

>>6275435
I actually don't mind,those are among my favourites. The issue is when people are focusing more on memes and fanarts rather than showing love for the source material which is something Doom and many others fell in the last couple of years.

Back in the 2000s it was more contained and kept going for what it was known for,now they pushed the bounderies,both in terms of modding and fanbase.

>>6274197
I'm thinking of uploading the game files of Descent 1 and 2 to MEGA, but I'm wondering if I can get fucked for it (by either my ISP send me emails about copyright violations or Steam banning me for uploading the files).

I have the Steam version of 1 and the GOG version of 2, btw.

>>6275432
Is that a fucking lawnmower man mod?

Here's al the files from steamy version of Dolphin Porn 64
maybe someone will be able to extract new episode out of it
https://files.catbox.moe/5e3at9.zip

>>6275463
Why would you upload anything other than the GOG versions of both? Is 1 not on GOG?

Does it fucking seriously REQUIRE 8gigs of RAM and fucking Windows 10 to run the new release of Doom 64?

>>6275465
Unfortunately no.
Would be cool though.

Whining my ass. His response is perfectly reasonable after all the bullshit he's gone through.

>>6275480
They didn't have any worse computers to test with at the office. Same reason why the minimum specs for eternal were so high. Turns out they were kinda bullshit

>>6275472
Thanks for uploading anon. Well I'm not an expert, but this game data seems unprotected. It's just a regular wad and pk/zip that can be opened with Slade. Only the exe has the regular low level protection that can be bypassed with a steam emulator or the likes. I haven't tried Doom64 before so I'll download some of the user made ports to see if these files can be used with them.
>>6275480
Nah, they probably just didn't bother trying to run it on anything weaker. Also it looks like the port supports vulkan, neat.

Fuck.

Doom 64 has 4 arguments:
-nomonsters
-skill
-skipmovies
-fast
I have no clue what skill or fast do, the other 2 are self-explanatory (and work). Can also just delete the .ogm files in the movies folder to skip the intro.

>>6275534
It's not needed, it nags every launch but you can just click Cancel.

>>6275537
>.ogm
.ogv, even.

>>6275537
>It's not needed, it nags every launch but you can just click Cancel.
Well thats good.

>>6275515
Yeah after taking a closer look I can confirm this is just an upgraded version of the Doom64EX engine. It's got 4 new demos that play at the main menu and there's also bethesda and slayer's club integration.

Here's the text screen for the new episode they added, taken from the game files.

>"You had not expected to be

>Getting back there was your

>>6275537
-skill is difficulty 1-4
-fast is fast monsters

>>6275435
People just did. There were some options here and there before Decorate got more developed, Edge could do a lot of shit which GzDoom just couldn't for many years.
It helps that Doom's core gameplay is fundamentally very solid, too.

For the variety of mods, I'm honestly glad, since it means there's a lot of options for a lot of different people. I'll never play most of them, but they're there.

>>6275552
>I can confirm this is just an upgraded version of the Doom64EX engine
Actually scratch that. It could very well be their own build.

First time using crispydoom. Are the spectres suppose to be nearly impossible to see?

>>6275312
Load appropriate sprites in a pwad. You might need to mod them to appropriate PLAYPAL first, though.

>>6275616
Yes, between the low resolution and the vanilla fuzzy render effect, spectres were actually hard to see back in vanilla.

Now you see me,
Now you see me and live!

>>6275432
whats that wad called?

>>6275637
That's a game based on the movie,Lawnmower Man.

Hobo with a shotgun WAD

>>6275624
Thanks.

Also I might be retarded, but how do I access the command line in Crispy Doom.

>>6275339
>I'm not sure if I want a remake to that video, lest they're still biased and fuck up the research again.
considering the current state of both franchises, i can see them turning shit around
kinda wished they did something with doom's hell vs another evil faction from a different videogame, just so they can make it lose even in a shitty way and motivate id to make demons stronger in gameplay and "canon"

>>6275360
>You guys don't actually hate Brutal Doom right?
new here?
if you look up keywords like bd or brutal doom on desuarchive for /vr/, you should see lists of reasons and stories, along with links and images of why people here don't like the mod very much

>>6275704
After 6 years of seeing stupid brutal doom questions I've hit a point where I just assume it's someone baiting.

>>6275628
That's one of my favorites too. Along with
>I love the smell of morning in the morning

>>6275587
it just uses the updated kek engine, it's like v4 or something

>>6275008
I wish an extra Doom 64 chapter were to include the cut content like the levels with different themes and new enemies, specially if the port ran on a different engine that could allow some modifications, considering the Unity ports of 1 and 2 have something to do with a shitty law about open source code and consoles or whatever Graf said in a thread.
I think Gerardo said he'd release his project a while after Eternal is out, probably because of the new 64 chapter and Eternal's story, but i hope he doesn't quit.
>>6275372
Speaking of informative videos for some mods, if you ever do MetaDoom, this pastebin should have some useful info but it's so fucking old and the new update changed some stuff, so i should update it at some point.

>>6275616
I find them way easier to see in Crispy Doom compared to PrBoom+.

>>6275676
There is no console. If you want to use command lines, you need to create executable files. It's actually way easier than it sounds, anon.

Here, I will hook you up. Here are some simple vanilla-compatible mods to make your Crispy Doom experience a lot better:
Vanilla Doom Smooth Weapons
> https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/102462-vanilla-doom-smooth-weapons/
Per Kristian's Hi-Res Doom Sound Effects
> https://www.perkristian.net/game_doom-sfx.shtml
Doom Minor Sprite Fixing Project
> https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/62403-doom-2-minor-sprite-fixing-project-v19-release-updated-12718/

Unzip the files into your Crispy Doom folder. Pk_smooth_sfx will not create its own folder, but Vsmooth and Spritefix will create their own folders. Just leave those folders as is. Also, I recommend you keep the .zip files in a separate folder just in case; they don't take up much space anyway.

If you haven't already, you need to enable the ability to view file extensions. Type "file explorer options" in start menu, open that, select view, and deselect "Hide extensions"

Now, create a new text document in your Crispy Doom folder. Name it "Doom 1993" or whatever, doesn't matter. Change it from a .txt file into a .bat file. Right click it, edit it, and inside that file, copy paste this, without the >
>crispy-doom -iwad doom.wad -file spritefix\d1spfx19.wad vsmooth\vsmooth.wad pk_doom_sfx_20120224.wad -deh spritefix\D1DEHFIX.DEH
Save the file, double click it, and Crispy Doom will load with those mods! You need to use command lines to use mods in Crispy Doom, but for GZDoom, you can use a mod loader program to organize all your mods for you

I personally prefer command lines because it keeps my Doom folder nice and organized, pic related

>>6275479
I don't feel like buying it again.

>>6275756

>>6275769

Thanks for all that.

>>6275774
Not sure how that works. Are you saying I can uninstall the Steam version then download the GOG version using my Steam integration with GOG?

>>6275784
not the steam integration, look for "gog connect" in your favorite search engine

>>6275785
It says "No eligible games found." Oh well.

>>6275360
are you the same guy who asked exact same question every single thread

>>6275780
Whoops, I forgot the music packs. This is the highest quality Doom music there is, it sounds great. Go here
> http://sc55.duke4.net/games.php#doom
Download the Doom music pack, preferably FLAC but it's up to you. Unzip that file into your Crispy Doom music-packs folder. To find this folder, type %appdata% in your start menu, and open the crispy doom folder. You need the music files directly inside the folder, like in this picture. Whenever I want to de-activate the music-packs, I click and drag all of those .flac files into the "Temp" folder I created, Temp short for temporary.

>I dont have a controller plugged in
>mouse wheel up does nothing
>mouse wheel down goes thru previous weapons, loops between fist and chainsaw instead of going back to the actual last weapon

fucking W H A T

>>6275616
Yes, actually, they were pretty damn difficult to see in the original .exe with the 320x240 resolution. That's something you kinda lose with sourceports and higher resolutions, and I think why some mods try to compensate by making Specter replacements more dangerous than Pinkies.

>>6275861
Seems like selecting a control that's already bound to an action disables it. It was the same in the Blood port but with the flashing input names it's a lot more confusing here.

>>6275854
Everything is canon, even Chex Quest

>>6275769
Someone's got to have uploaded the GOG version by now, right?

>>6275893
even the sky may be?

>>6275041
Yeah, sometimes in vanilla I have to figure out where spectres are by letting myself bump into them, because if they're biting they're stuck in one place for an easy hit instead of roaming around a dark room.

How do you switch huds in Beautiful DOOM?

With all of the bullshit going on I'm finally playing through Doom. I played the first episode of both Doom 1 and 2 a bunch when I was younger but never went past that for whatever reason. I'm not sure I'm gonna play some of the custom wads after I finish them but I'm really glad to be playing Doom again.

>>6275983

>>6274720
I refunded Dusk because you can't unbind/rebind weapon switch from mousewheel. Absurd issue that's been there for at least 3 years when I googled around.

is there a wad download for that new chapter of 64?

I play doom 1 and 2 with smooth doom. Pretty comfy. No extra death animations though.

This is an achievement for the Doom64 port
should porbably tell you that i got this one because i went to second chapter levels which in the feature zone they say they are the lost levels

Here is the ending of new chapter
The connection is surprisingly small but cheeky one if i have to say myself.
as for the maps
they were pretty good, the last one take on the Key runes was pretty neat, even if i was pretty smart with my use of invul spheres.
and as for the new added "fun" map "Panic" it's as fun as i expected it to be.

>>6276295
How brutally unfair is it? Is it "Hectic"-tier?

>>6276304
well
the fun map
Is relatively tame, it is a compat area in which if you go to the borders of it you can get rocket spammed from the wall shooting fire balls and there are a lot of line teleports for the monster to take, and it begins with spiders and rocket launchers and lotsa rocketsThere is also a bfg with some ammo but it's scarce and a megasphere if i remember
once you kill the spiders they all despawn and 2 cybie appears, once you kill em both you finish the level.
i admittetly didn't had that much problem beating it considering i was save scumming a lot.

>>6275352
Playing it, pretty nice really dig the aesthetics. Also, this floor here hurts you if you stand too close to the edge without actually dropping down.

Updated my mod again now i have decided to buff the damage of the upgraded mdfg up to 22 and added a cvar that you can configure in the mod options to customize it if you think it's still not enough
not picutred because i can't screenshot the mod option menu.

So I heard this new Doom 64 port has new levels.

I bought it but it doesn't run for me, tried everything I could to try and make it run too.

Is there any other way to play these new levels in another port?

>>6276416
You can actually access them if you beat hectic and then go to features warp to level and press right until you see warp to lost.
that or finish the main game first

>slade doesn't supports pk7/7zip archives
Well that's a letdown.

>>6274614
Doom 2 broke the game's original aesthetics.

>>6274197
This is only semi retro (since it's a musing about eternal, but about classic doom mods) but I remember when doom 2016 came out lots of people blamed it's deisgn on brutal doom.

Is it time to blame the golden souls for eternal's design ?

But overall it's Doom 64 EX without jump or vertical look.

>>6276719
It's good but the only complaint I have is the splash screens. Those however can be skipped by deleting all files from the movies folder.

>>6274197
yoo that art is sick, is it recent?

>>6276725
>But overall it's Doom 64 EX without jump or vertical look.
It's weird because the .cfg still has jump as a registered key (right mouse) so it must've been removed quite late?

>>6276719
Not you but I would like to ask if the new 64 levels are ripped anywhere yet?

Ordered pic related recently, thoughts?
I almost went with fireblu.

Cool! btw I'll leak some master assemblies to get you started.

Napalm Launcher + P A T S

Forsaken is another banger. Kingpin is on its way too. This is basically all Night Dive does (though I think kingpin is 3DRealms).

Great news.

The new Doom 64 release stores your Bethesda password in plaintext in stdout.txt.
Doubt most people will be signing in or using that password for other things - you're not that dumb after all - but just a heads up.

I want to make a Heretic megawad but not force the player to select episodes after 8 maps. Can I use GZDoom for this?

Quality content, good map design.

How does "change texture" linedef action work? Does floor take the texture of target floor?

>Colourful Hell

I didn't expect this to be so fun. Every room could lead to my death. Any other good combinations of wad and mods to try?

>>6276995
I'm playing with Doom RPG Rebalance+RLA+Lexicon

Alright, I've played some of Doom 1, I'm at E2M4 right now, GZDoom sometimes just locks up for a second sometimes, I assume one of the settings applied by Vanilla Essence is too much for my garbo computer, which one though I don't know. Also, I'm having a hard time finding secrets, are there any things in particular to look out for when trying to find secrets?

HOW DO I CHANGE THE HUD IN BEAUTIFUL DOOOOOOOM?>>6275969

>>6276953
i need the new unmaker for metadoom

Does the official Doom 64 port use the original game data or is it modified in some way? Could you run the official port through EX, for example?

am i a brainlet, or is doom 64 kind of not fun? like 90% of the game is flipping a switch and running through the whole level to find what it did

>>6276940
Thank you

Apparently the new port actually REMOVED features from 64EX. Fucking consoles man. Well ill definitely just be plopping the wad into 64EX then.

>>6277056
Good. Freelook is cheating.

>>6277015
>I'm having a hard time finding secrets, are there any things in particular to look out for when trying to find secrets?
Interact with everything, specially stuff that looks out of place like a wall with a slightly different/misaligned texture. And keep your ears open since sometimes stepping over a particular sector will trigger a wall opening nearby.

HOOOOOOOOLY SHIT IS DEUS VULT A STEP UP FROM PLUTONIA
I managed to reach the gigantic open area doing blind UV, but I have no idea how the fuck am I going to deal with that clusterfuck. Is map knowledge required?

>>6277020
You mean Unmakyr

>>6277056
While not having vertical look makes sense, as stated earlier the cfg file mentions and assigns a key to jumping so that was probably removed at Bethesda's behest?

>>6277080
I don't remember clearly but, did Doom 64 have jumping?

>>6277080
It would allow for sequencebraking for achievments and easier puzzles

>>6277082
No it didn't

Also activateables highlighting was removed as well, to my dismay - I liked that feature.

>>6277056
Well, you aren't SUPPOSED to jump or freelook, that was always a sourceport addition.

>>6277082
It didn't, no.
I'm not sure this supposed 'lack of time' (it's been ready and waiting for months) would've really been a factor for not adding jump, can only assume it was a creative decision late on as >>6277083 says or it was even taken out after the fact.

>>6277082
Doom 64 EX had jumping (because why not), vertical look (and skyboxes to compensate for it), kills/secrets counter, you could zoom out the map etc. All of these got removed in this port. They also upped the fuck out of brightness, added tons of corporate logos and a bethesda.net login screen, censored the medkits etc. It's a very corporate re-release so to speak, not a fan made labor of love anymore.

>>6277090
>I'm not sure this supposed 'lack of time' (it's been ready and waiting for months) would've really been a factor for not adding jump
Of course it wasn't, are you dense? Why would they ship an official release that you pay money for that comes with "features" that absolutely break the game?

>>6277101
The port can load wads tho, you just need to write
"-file *filename*" withouth the ""
so load it with a mod that replaces it with proper graphics.

>>6277018

>>6277101
>censored the medkits

Wut

>>6277106
>Why would they ship an official release that you pay money for that comes with "features" that absolutely break the game?
Why did they keep it in the config file? It was a consideration for this release.

>>6277112

>>6277112
Probably they changed crosses to pills or something like in the BFG edition Doom wads.

>>6277112
The medkits in the secret classic levels in Doom 2016 were also censored. The red cross is a copyrighted (and very litigiously protected) symbol.

>>6277106
From that Doom World thread:
>Where exactly can you sequence break with mouselook? The only place that comes to mind is the start of Breakdown but that's not even a big deal since the normal place to fire is just up some stairs.

>"absolutely break the game"
>looking up

>>6277115
At least they are not pills like Be*thesda Doom version.

What are the main differences between JoeQuake and Mark V? And which one should I use if I want to experience Vanilla Quake?

You can restore the red crosses in nu64 by the way
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Doom_64#Restore_red_crosses

>>6277128
JoeQuake is the only non-vanilla engine allowed on SDA, so if you're after the most vanilla-possible Quake and dont want to use the original executables that's probably your best bet.

>>6275854
They can't openly say it is, because of rights issues, but there's at least some love for Heretic and they like to reference it.

I also strongly suspect both Heretic and Doom 2016 were influenced by Carmack's D&D notes because Romero really liked that D&D campaign and he helped produce Heretic. I don't think it's a coincidence that the Seraphim are mentioned as an elder race in both Heretic 2 and nuDoom.

Ok i need to know how many different versions of half life are out there.
Especially the differences between pre-steam and steam versions.

>>6277114
>gotta remove these gameplay-breaking features that I don't know why we even added since nobody makes maps for our engine that take advantage of them
>comment out the code
>move on
You're overthinking things. And what does it matter whether or not it was a consideration?

>>6277115
I don't know why they couldn't go the Doom Eternal route and have 4 red boxes with white space in between.

>>6276804
I hope they give Eradicator a remaster of some kind.

>>6277112
the red cross has the legas right of... the red cross

>>6277123
You can cheese enemies with it, be able to shoot at monsters you shouldn't be able to shoot from where you're standing, look down ledges you shouldn't, etc.

>>6277142
>And what does it matter whether or not it was a consideration?
Doesn't really matter to me as it was merely an interesting observation, apparently this once-light conversation is upsetting some though..

Yeah so anyway Doom 64 EX is better

>>6277132
Heretic 2 doesn't count.

Post a screenshot of whatever you are playing

Kinda Off-Topic:
Speaking of the Lawnmower Man before,the soundtrack for SNES is awesome,some tracks really remind me of System Shock,like this one:

You are literally too stupid to make fun of

well i just tried JoeQuake and it's shit, mark 5 is superior
can't turn off that ugly remastered turd hud, can't turn off lerpmodels, particles are rounded, etc.

>>6277256
Doom 64 EX was made by the same developer, and this is a continuation of it. Retard.

>>6277279
nvm i just found out how

This is Graf Zahl!

Say something nice about him!

>>6277301
He's maintained and continued updating a Doom sourceport most people use for mods and shit. I don't like him or his tastes, or how much of a dickbag he can be, but he's still keeping GZdoom alive and adding new shit.

>>6277301
I just watched the Dwars video too
