Just thinking about the numerous old school mods i tried...
007 License to Spell Doom http://zdoom.org/wiki/007:_Licence_to_Spell_DooM Had some ace moments. I've never seen any Q engine with this freeze command. Wahoo ;> ZDoom is like the Darkplaces of Doom, only more buggy.
The problem with the ZDoom extensions is that your wad will be tied to one engine, for better or worse. All your eggs are in one basket. This wouldn't be a problem if Zdoom was multiplatform and if it wasn't so sluggish. A dedicated DOOM engine like PrBoom is often preferable. And now that the Heretic source is open,I guess it won't be long until a dedicated port pops up. Perhaps that will also benefit ZDoom. Hm, ZDoom is aparently no longer in Gentoo portage. O_o It can't be that bad?! The Linux situation is pretty dire. The developers of (G)ZDoom don't really care about Linux too much and support is often broken. There are patches available as mentioned in the first post but sometimes I've had to go in and edit a snip-it of code myself to get things to compile again. Things like that make me miss binary releases.
I did hear something about ZDoom possibly moving from FMod to OpenAL which would cause GZDoom to follow suite. Oh and the situation with WADs being (G)ZDoom spefic isn't really an issue as a good majority of the community use the engine. ps. You might want to check out Skulltag, which provides online play (DM,CTF,Coop,etc) and is based off of GZDoom. The community there is surprisingly active and there's plenty of players and servers at any given time. It is closed source however but that just means you don't have deal with compiling. >_> http://skulltag.com/ Some nice wads I played recently.
Par: http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/?id=11822 D1 E1-style episode with incredible detail (love the shadows) and good gameplay. Highly recommended. 10sectors contest: http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?id=10973 D2 megawad, each map uses not more than 10 sectors in total. Neat stuff, kind of like 100b. 2sectors contest: http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?id=13939 Even more impressive. D2 16 maps with lots of trickery. .. and I persist: ZDoom sucks, please use DoomLegacy instead... you damn stupid Doom-ish player :P
you damn stupid Doom-ish player :P
you may tell it to your wife/mom, but not me, you stupid horse shit lover... :| I think you just lost your sense of humor playing too much with ZDoom :P though... and please don't talk about my mom/wife, you don't even know her... and you don't want to know her...
.. as if compatibilty/compilation/sound-api isn't bad enough, some mods require either gzdoom or zdoom.
I finished the 10 sector wad. All maps rocked ('cept map31). The first time the cyberdemon shouted his appearance i shit my pants. I meant Claustrophobia 1024 of course.
http://mekworx.phenomer.net/2009/06/17/32-is-the-square-root-of-awesome http://www.celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=60349 I think you just lost your sense of humor playing too much with ZDoom :P though... and please don't talk about my mom/wife, you don't even know her... and you don't want to know her...
i was wrong, i'm really sorry :/ ps. why do you think i'm playing doom at all ;) ...being a moron does not mean your cannot be sexy... though... and please let my mom outside the discussion, I'm not talking about yours... :/
