I forgot to mention the texture colorization feature is not included. For now i'm sticking to OpenAL 1.19, 1.20 was not compatible with WinXP.

Hi dear drfrag! THANK YOU forever for this awesome new version!! We are having so much fun playing splitscreen here! This is really a dream that came true! I'll return soon to post a video from LZDoom running here, including on a GPD Pocket.

Here follows a brief video:

I've made a small batch file with two INI files to launch two instances of LZDoom with the desired wads/mods. If someone is interested on these files, just let me know.
Cheers!

[drfrag]

Thanks. Cool, glad it's working for you.

Hi dear drfrag!

I've noticed that LZDoom has some kind of "visplane limitation". It's very good to keep PCs with low CPU and memory running ok. Is there any command/cvar to configure it?

[drfrag]

Those are the render cull options and there are sliders under Display options->Software/OpenGL renderer.

The only issue I'm having is that I am simply unable to edit the .ini file to recognize the path to the IWAD. Here is what I'm using:

# Each directory should be on a separate line, preceded by Path=
[IWADSearch.Directories]
Path=C:\Files\DooM\DOOM2.WAD
Path=$HOME
Path=$PROGDIR

In the end I simply copied the IWAD into the LZDooM directory (folder) to test LZDooM out. But it would be nice not to have duplicate the IWADS in the LZDooM folder.
