Recommended Posts

A new channel for anyone to organize online games for any port. From Doom2.exe to Doomsday anyone can join to find people for Deathmatch or Coop.

Freenode (and OFTC for that matter) have never historically liked Doom-related channels because of the idiots they tend to attract.

Doom2.exe

Yes, folks, it's the amazing Doom2.exe! Amazing features, including:
-Save Games!
-Amazing 320x200 resolution!
-Full sector-based lighting effects!
-128x128 textures!

Seriously, nobody uses doom2.exe. (I know someone here will correct me, though.)

Most of the serious demo runners still use it. They aren't the only ones either.

He did however mention that it included any port.

There's a pretty recent thread in the Source Ports forum about what engines people use. It's obvious people will continue using the plain engine (or a pure port of it, such as Chocolate Doom) until the game is forgotten. It's even easier now than a couple of years back, because (DOSBox) emulation has improved.

There are a whole lot of people, including me, that must be nobody then.
