VileSlay Posted November 14, 2002 didn't doom have some degree of autoaim anyway? well I use always run, crosshairs, jump (but rarely use it) and weapon cycle. the other stuff I couldn't care less about. 0 Share this post Link to post
sirjuddington Posted November 14, 2002 Yes Doom did have autoaim. I usually have a crosshair, mouselook and always run on. I usually have jumping on too, but never actually jump unless the level is made to cater for jumping (which isn't the question anyway). 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted November 14, 2002 Doom always has had always-run, quicksave, and autoaim. 0 Share this post Link to post

Buy quicksave, I meant a single button the you tap without going into a menu. and with auto aim, I wanted to see how many people use both autoaim and mouse look. I guess I should have explained myself better. 0 Share this post Link to post

DooMer 4ever Posted November 14, 2002 I heard of quicksave now for the first time :) I never use jump to get to places you normally wouldn't be able to reach, but I always jump when walking on slime/lava. I guess i'm a cheater :) I always use mouselook. 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted November 14, 2002 Regarding autoaim, the new option that many source ports provide is the possibility of turning it off. 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMer 4ever Posted November 14, 2002 I always use the mousewheel to change weapons. ZdoomGl doesn't have that option so I would never play with it, even if I didn't get framerate problems in it :) 0 Share this post Link to post

DooMer 4ever Posted November 14, 2002 Just thinking, Aren't source ports cheating even if you didn't use any of the special features: you can walk over and under the monsters, unlike in original Doom exes. A major difference in gameplay I think. 0 Share this post Link to post

myk Posted November 14, 2002 Boom, prboom and such don't have that feature, but yeah, the gameplay is altered pretty much by that feature in most of the advanced engines. 0 Share this post Link to post

You can turn off jumping and mouselook, but not the fact that things can be over each other, as well as any possible slight side effects of the augmented clipping code. 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMBoy Posted November 14, 2002 Mouselook, jumping, always run, infinite ammo (ZDoom), and uh, that's it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Colusio Posted November 14, 2002 Look up/down is missing. I'm using prboom with "mouselook" but since you can't see up/down it moves forward/backward. (which you can disable by setting the vertical mouse sensivity to 0) 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted November 14, 2002 I run doom and doom2 without vertical sensitivity, by using Istvan Pataki's Novert. Some mouse drivers can do the same, and there's at least one other app capable of it, too. 0 Share this post Link to post

Captain Red Posted November 15, 2002 I use mouselook, crosshairs and always run, with autoaim off. Ever since I played quake, I longed for the day that I could use mouse look in doom. And the first time I played legacy and used mouselook... it was like all my Christmases had come at once! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! id for releasing the source code! And thank you! Thank you! Thank you! To all the people who put the time and effort into making these fantastic source ports! I can guarantee you; if it weren’t for them, I would have stopped playing doom years ago. 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted November 15, 2002 In Ct_red_pants's post above, replace "Quake" with "Half-Life" and "Legacy" with "Zdoom", and that more or less exactly sums up my thoughts. 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted November 15, 2002 I did that for a while, during '99 and '00, using both those engines, 1st legacy, then zdoom, but I then felt it ruined the game, generally slowing it down, so I said "buh bye." 0 Share this post Link to post
deathz0r Posted November 15, 2002 Legacy kinda plays a lot like doom2.exe, IMO. 0 Share this post Link to post
