Sidescroller Doom?

[xenodragon]

I once saw a screenshot of a 'sidescroller' doom... how can i make this, too?

I'm probably the last person to be discussing this, but considering what Legacy, Zdoom and Gzdoom are capable of, I'd assume it's a matter of camera scripting.

I think there are scripting engines that you can use to make such sidescrollers. So just about anyone can make something like that. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the Doom 2D that you're talking about was written with something like this.

doom done in a goldenaxe style, but rips of sprites and a custom noddy engine were used. personally i tink a 3rd-person top-downish doom might be workable (what with it's auto up/down aiming built in) with zdoom camera modes (which is where codeimp's project probably camefrom)
