ReFracture Posted May 23, 2014 BaronOfStuff and I are wading through sewage, look at what we have uncovered! epi2best.wad is best wad ever in e2m4 Observe the player 2 start, in all its glory: In all seriousness there is no player 2 start. How I even spawned is beyond me. No start in E2M6 either. 0 Share this post Link to post
BaronOfStuff Posted May 23, 2014 3/8 maps were beatable/worked. A new record. Probably because it's the first. 0 Share this post Link to post
Tylerisepic1 Posted May 23, 2014 How would I connect to a server using DOOMATIC anyway? 0 Share this post Link to post
ReFracture Posted May 23, 2014 I don't know anything about doommatic, but in dosbox you can enter the command: IPXNET CONNECT x.x.x.x <port> x.x.x.x being the IP address and <port> of course being the port. You can ignore port if it is the default port. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted May 23, 2014 Woah, it auto-generated a player 2 start? Even though you're way out of the map, that's still a cool "crash avoid" thing. Fraggle - a west coast server would probably lag less for me (East coast Australia) so if others want it, that'd be cool :) Me and ASD (Gargoyle) recorded some really fun Deathmatch demos in ZDM_14.wad! here's the wad: http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?file=levels/doom2/deathmatch/v-z/zdm_14.zip and here are 3 demos: http://www.mediafire.com/download/9o1qmy9p9u607od/zdm_demo.zip (I am green, ASD is Indigo. We used Doom2 1.9) We couldn't get the -warp command to work right, oddly enough, so we just zoomed to the exit for map02 and map03. Also, this is a connection between Australia and Finland, so we were lagging like crazy! Still, it was a ton of fun. We'll all have to do a 4 player recording session some time, I need to get my 1994-crapfest satisfaction. 0 Share this post Link to post
BlueFeena Posted May 23, 2014 8:00 PM here, Baron and I are about to play some 94 idiocy. Grab us in #chocolate-doom before we start! 0 Share this post Link to post
BaronOfStuff Posted May 23, 2014 Managed to record one demo of EPI1BEST, haven't tried playing it back yet. Got up to E1M3 before Doom exploded because the .lmp was too big. This is weirdly fun, playing these crap levels as the authors would have (half-)intended. Although missing playerstarts are a shitstain on the fabric of mapping. Aarrrggghhhh... Edit: And yes, we've got two spaces to spare for anyone who values playing awful maps over being constructive with their time online! 0 Share this post Link to post

Tylerisepic1 Posted May 24, 2014 I don't think that we are playing. I am certainally not, its like 12 where I am, so I'm going to sleep. Good night everyone. 0 Share this post Link to post

ReFracture Posted May 26, 2014 Cool, might have to check that out. For demo recording purposes we switched over to boom 2.02. -maxdemo wasn't playing nice in co-op in vanilla. Also: The pain continues. 0 Share this post Link to post
ASD Posted May 26, 2014 How many kb did you type for the demo size? I know 999 should do fine for lengthy demos. Can't remember if it was the maximum value and how many minutes it lasted. I'm hosting a game on the EU server using Doomatic. Let's get a 4 player game running on the UDoom episodes! 0 Share this post Link to post
BaronOfStuff Posted May 27, 2014 This is frighteningly addictive stuff. Or maybe I'm just a sucker for classic LAN game emulation. Whatever the case, going through a bunch of maps like this last night resulted in a heap of 3P demo recordings of shit maps. 0 Share this post Link to post

I asked about this in the demo forum and Looper elaborated: http://www.doomworld.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1271407#post1271407 Looper said:If the commandline is too long, it won't work. You have to fit it in one line. And that was the issue. -maxdemo 1024 works properly now. Now another friend and I can co-op AV with Doom2.exe and record demos that are compatible with it. Tried using chocolate-doom but there's no sound in multi player and the svn builds seem to be sketchy on stability. I think It's fine sticking with Boom for this though.. These demos we are recording are just for Baron to make use of really, so I'm not too concerned that they are -complevel 9 demos instead of 2. Not exactly speed runs. 0 Share this post Link to post

I wasn't able to find a real 'official' place to get them. Chungy had linked me to a server hosted on an .edu with some builds and 2.0.0-115 was crashing when starting the game's exe, 113 seemed to have been working but was freezing. I'm not at home right now so I can't really give you better details at the moment but I will try to get you any relevant information about it. So from you Fraggle: Where should I go to get these newer builds? 0 Share this post Link to post

ReFracture Posted May 30, 2014 That seems like a weird solution when you could just IRC. As far as using Dosbox with Hamachi goes.. Hamachi is a VPN service. It installs a virtual network adapter on your machine and then connects you to a private network inside of the 'room' you are a part of in Hamachi. At which point you just use the hamachi IP addresses to network dosbox or any other software really. I used to use Hamachi a long time ago when I had an ISP that didn't allow any port forwarding. 0 Share this post Link to post

It's detecting the card I've downloaded drivers and what not but I can never tell if they've installed though because it just copies some files to the hard drive and I have to like start them up from there and I can't tell if it's working or not cause I don't know how to test the connection. My buddy told me i'll have to replicate a legacy network and I should probably give up but I don't want to quit that easily just yet. 0 Share this post Link to post
