Doom Legacy for mac os 9x on Mac G3, or any other os 9x working ports..

Recommended Posts

Since I'm currently using an old Macintosh G3 that seems to be using Rage 128 (if I am not mistaken) anyway, I am getting huge waiting times for anything by loading in doom legacy on the computer, are there any kind person who could make it run software from start (my computer does not like opengl at all..), at 640*480 or lower so that I can enjoy Doom on my old cool macintosh ;) , then pack it and send it to me or upload it somewhere?

Or if there are any other ports available to be run on macos 9X then I would be very thankful!

The mac itself is keeping me from buying one, it's enough that I use them in school.

I was afraid no one would say it

Could anyone fix the config in this package to run software instead and at 640*480 on the start? and then repack it, upload it somewhere and give me the link jobby?, I would be very thankful.. It's all I ask, all I need to be running any doom on my mac D:

I did earlier and since I wanted to be sure that its the same, I downloaded it again and it is. It's quite honestly one of the worst doom ports ever! :( the controls are set to something such as y as move forward and so.. in the middle of the keyboard.. plus, the shoot key is situated somwhere else on the keyboard.. And there are no options for the keys! Plus I tried adding the full doom wad (has to be named doom1.wad since its not an ultimate doom demo..) so because this is the very original doom demo, and quite a stupid such, it cant read other episodes than doom's original ones, I haven't tried with doom 2 but I am sure what to expect.. if it can run it at all..

Hmm I really need this Doom Legacy (used to think I'd never need to use it again since it's so outdated)

EDIT: Whoopsie OS9, in that case you're rather up a creek if you cant get legacy to work, as doom support on pre-OSX systems is not really there.
