Guest PrimeSide Posted January 18, 2001 Is it possible to play an online game (DM or co-op) of Doom2 with both people using modems and have little to no lag? I'm not sure if there are any super-optimized Doom multi-player programs, so I had to ask here. Any help would be great as I'm sick of playing Co-op (or DM) with so much lag on 1 end that it takes about 4 seconds to fire after I've hit the fire button... 0 Share this post Link to post
fodders Posted January 20, 2001 The CSDoom project helps a lot with this, it's not perfect but http://csdoom.sourceforge.net Soon to be released SkullTag is even better I hear and Doomserv is quite good for straight foreward zdoom connections http://doomserv2000.com 0 Share this post Link to post
BahdKo Posted February 1, 2001 Whether or not your modem doom will have lag that is greater than what you would call "little to no lag" will depend on exactly which kind of lag gets on your nerves as well as how far away your opponant is. You didn't mention in your post if you had ever tried doom2.exe's normal modem to modem. If you want to try it, two pages on www.doom2.net discuss it: http://www.doom2.net/doom2/modem.html and http://www.doom2.net/doom2/begmodem.html 0 Share this post Link to post
