half-life tc

[sin`pl]

hello...i found months ago half-life total conversion for vanilla doom :P i talked wtih nmn... he never heard about :) i though its very popular... so i decided to post it here.
removed

also - there is duke nukem 3d tc... both works on vanilla doom, yeah! :)

If noone heard about it, how could it be popular?

Those wads are for Doom on Linux. They don't work correctly on my computer. The Half-Life conversion that actually works on Windows computers is here: http://www.doomwadstation.com/doom_reviews/halflife.html

That's a different project though - from the sound of it, it doesn't contain any new levels.

The one linked to here works OK for me (in glboom), and looks quite good, albeit short (just four maps). There's not much action, and the scientists and Barneys are both static and silent. With a bit (OK, a fair bit) of dehacked work or friendly AI, that could possibly be improved.

Note that as far as I can tell, it doesn't work with Doom2.exe ("Bad V_DrawPatch") so the claim that it is for vanilla Doom seems odd.

It was originally for Zdoom

This site used to have the download, it was split in parts, but he removed it for some odd reason

[Grazza]

Ah, right, so it is from the same project, but the one at doomwadstation is missing the levels, and the one at gp32x.de is without the dehacked work, any credit for the authors (i.e. illegal), and has probably been modified in some other ways so that it works with the GP32.

A lot of that stuff on there is "illegal" - especially the one that claims to be Doom 64 (which is actually Requiem with Doom64 weapon and monster sprites).

Gordon looks messed up.

they're so low, they even have heresy!

Huh? What? They don’t work well on my computer too. And they both suck.

As Grazza pointed out, this wad was originally designed for GP32. It definitely does not work with vanilla DooM, and even has all kinds of problems with ZDooM. I need to try it with glboom, as Grazza suggests.

To its credit it reasonably faithfully re-creates the first four areas of the original Half-Life, and the sprite work is extensive. However, many of the sprites seem to have missing frames.

For an older ZDooM conversion of Half-Life check out Paranoia. Screenshots are available at DooM Nexus.

from the site:
Note: This is the PWAD version. It takes less space on your SMC, but you need DOOM2.WAD in game/doom to play.
If you don't have it, grab the WAD version.

What is this socalled "wad version"? Sounds like it includes illegal material.

[TheDarkArchon]

Am I the only one that thinks that status bar looks AWFUL.

I downloaded the "wad version" of the Duke Nukem TC from there, and it does indeed contain illegal resources (while the monster sprites are, for the most part, blanked out, much of the sounds, textures, and levels are still there if I remember correctly).

Actually there is a ton of GoldenEye versions for gamepark running around, as well.
