ZDoom

UPDATE A completely random person emailed me the other day, asking me to create an ipk3 version of this project using the IWADINFO feature. I, being bright with splendorous magnanimity, obliged immediately. Here it is. (Dropbox) I welcome any responses and comments. The IWADINFO is a small addition...

Gearing up for hurricane Sandy Petersen as its' path is projected to take it right on top of me. That would make it the second one to hit me. Was hearing all the same things from my friends who are still in NJ. "They said expect 1 day to 2 weeks without power," "I already took some d...

And now for something completely different... I've seen things you people would (probably) believe... http://i.imgur.com/q0UHH.png You've done a man's job, sir! Unrelated: keyboard suddenly and spontaneously exploded today. Or something. Anyway, it stopped working and Windows told me the device was...

This wouldn't be happening if you had the good sense to be born a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, where they could make your more machine than man.

Monsters can have armor, so would it be possible to use armor for this purpose? I don't recall offhand if you can make armor that only absorbs certain kind of damages.

I don't particularly care for MMO's, by dear God does Guild Wars 2 solve a lot of the problems I've had with the genre.

The internet.

But, you know, for vidiya games!

Then what's this thing about attending stations that I hear? There's still a few states where it's illegal to pump your own nightmare fuel.

Story time!! The right channel on my headset suddenly cut out and wouldn't come back. One channel of sound is just no good nowadays, stereo minimum being so ubiquitous. Fortunately the headset was still covered under warranty, so all I had to do was go to the store and get it replaced for free. That...

Everybody who already owns the game gets a coupon. The idea is you either give it to somebody who will use it or buy it as a gift for a friend, since it does drop the price to $5. Well and truly a steal for the game.

Suggestions, then? Maybe some level of asymmetry will help? A lot of doors aren't symmetrical in the real world, by nature of the their opening mechanism, whether knob or keypad (not to mention hinges and such.) In-game... whether that would help I guess depends on room layout and the like. A room ...

Finished Crysis 1, going to download (Steam, not pirate) Warhead overnight. It was... interesting. I never used strength-mode, aside from the required jumps and breaking-down-broken-doors. I think I'm going to join the general consensus that the gameplay in the first half was MUCH better. I'm compl...

So how do you reconcile the existence of all these features which have nothing to do with Doom with "it will always be a Doom engine"? These features have, as far as I can tell, been added to extend the capabilities of the modder in bringing his or her creative vision into the engine, not...

Just give it up. What Gez said is the ultimate truth about ZDoom. It's a Doom Engine source port and was not intended to be anything more. And what the devs say goes, purely on the basis that they control what is added to ZDoom and you don't, if for no better reason. On the "it's a Doom port a...
