DOOM95

About This File

DOOM95.EXE will work with any DOOM or DOOM2 main wadfile.

With DOOM95, you no longer need to keep your main wads in seperate directories. Copy all main wad files (DOOM.WAD, DOOM2.WAD, PLUTONIA.WAD, TNT.WAD, etc) to the DOOM95 directory and launch DOOM95. To play, choose the appropriate wad file from the launcher and then start the game.

This is identical to what you get if you buy The Doom Collectors Edition (minus the PWADs). And how can you knock "pure" Doom? I played many, many Doom games with this before discovering ports and I still play it sometimes like this. If you ever want to play Doom the "original, old-fashioned way", this is a great way to do it. --WinstonSmith6079

This has to be the ultimate alternative to a pure doom experience with no added features except for the higher screen resolution support. It also doesn't crash when you get visplane overflows and runs fine under windows, of course. Plus it's a doom.exe and doom2.exe both in one. The only setbacks with Doom95 are you cant use dehacked with it, and there is a bug with demo recording (which can be fixed with the demo fix).

This game is a classic. I remember playing back in the DOS days where consoles were starting to get more and more advanced. But the graphics on this game always made things a winner and a PC is all you need (its your own console) to enjoy a classic gem like this!

Five stars, because by reverse engineering this, entryway was able to emulate the behavior of the DOS exes more closely.

Vanilla doom for windows, 'nuff said. Too bad that it brings some good things (extra resolution support, demo compatibility, slightly improved engine limits) at the expense of others (no direct FM music support, can't use DEHACKED, choppier frame rate than vanilla doom in any resolution). 4/5

Shut up RFNage1. You mac fan-boy loser. This port is excellent. In fact, it would be good if the mouse worked in Windows 2000, and higher.

I don't care what anyone says, this was what I started with so to me it means a lot, and without it I wouldn't know about the other source ports. Even on it's own it's an excellent alternative to Doom.exe if you don't mind down-pitched sounds or the slight horizontal screen stretching.

I used it for a while only because it came with my copy of Final Doom, but I prefered the DOS executables anyway (under pure DOS 6.2, of course!). The extra resolution is surely a plus, as is the compatibility with vanilla Doom demos, but for some reason the frame rate appears choppier than it should :-S Also, it screws up MIDI music for some reason, especially on exit.

The latest Chocolate Doom versions have rendered Doom95 obsolete. Choco is now the best "pure" Doom port, and suffers from none of the extra bugs/quirks present in Doom95. Choco also runs well on a large variety of modern operating systems.

I voted one star. Why? Simply because I find that porting good old 100% stable DOS apps and games to WinDoZe 9xxxxx sickening. Other than the visplane overflow fix and the ability to play DOOM within a native WinBlows 9x application, nothing beats good old DOS DOOM v1.9, hands down -:) Just my politically incorrect and (I'm sure) unpopular two cents :wink: - RFNagel

      Really good puzzle map in a big dark metal/stone building. It catches the atmosphere of Bob Evans' Eternal Doom stuff, and I think there are even some homages to some other Eternal Doom maps as well (for example, the big two-layered outdoor area looks a bit like the "amusement park" in MAP26).   In my experience the puzzles were a bit easier than in "Silures" or "Excalibur", but it's possible that having played a lot of puzzle map stuff since I played Eternal Doom, having played through the whole canon of Bob Evans and Jim Flynn, and liking to search for Doom secrets in every map has made me recognize certain tropes better. The puzzles I liked most were (the spoilers only give minor hints):
          Gameplay is good too, at the start ammo is scarce so the chainsaw and berserk are your friend, and midtiers say hello from the start on, but hitscanners are the biggest threat. Rockets should be saved for archviles until you find the first larger cache.   9,5/10

      Fun, challenging set of maps that looks much better than you might expect for the time it was made. These maps will still slap you around a bit on HMP if you're not staying sharp. The author is fond of Chaingunner ambushes which keep you on your toes. I didn't find the SSG until around MAP05, which was cool, I like when its not given out too early. Pistol-starting the last two maps is pretty tough, but doable.   The map designs do a really good job of letting the player see crucial areas from different angles through progression and the layouts are really tidy overall, and feel a bit more modern than a lot of other 94/95 maps I've played. There are some really nice large-scale vistas (like the start of MAP06), nice uses of verticality and a good mixture of tight and more open combat.   Recommended!

      Spectacular visuals and engaging combat make this an absolute must play. There's a puzzle with a "Shoot the thing" answer that kind of comes out of left field and can be an easy place to get stuck if you're not on your toes, but that hardly stops the map from being a thrilling masterpiece.

      E3M9's refrain of back-tracking to a church for keys is a little tedious, and there are a few moments where things can become a frustrating key/switch hunt as you figure out what to do next, but aside from that, this an intense and rewarding adventure with beautiful lighting and architecture.
