The 12-bit mode didn't make it to the alpha. The lump is there, but there's no code behind.
Yeah, the COLORS12 lump is not even referenced in the .exe but the COLORS15 one is. After all, the COLORS12 lump was specific to NeXT video hardware (the only hardware at the time having a native ARGB 4-4-4-4 display mode).
Interestingly, Android's Bitmap.Config class defines an ARGB_4444 mode "deprecated due to poor quality". It reportedly sucks for what regards drawing speed, as well.
However, a 565 mode remains available...hmm....who said a Doom source port has to use just fugly 8-bit indexed, especially if there's no native support for it? ;-)
