chungy Posted December 10, 2008 Chocolate Doom version 1.2.0 has been released in celebration of Doom's 15th anniversary, as usual providing both precompiled binaries for Windows operating systems and source code for whatever else you may wish to run it on. It contains numerous bug fixes and features, and is highly recommended to any serious old-school Doomer. 0 Share this post Link to post

Mechadon Posted December 10, 2008 Awesome! You guys couldn't have picked a better time to release it :P 0 Share this post Link to post
fraggle Posted December 10, 2008 It's actually kind of weird releasing this, because I've been working for the past few months on raven-branch and the stable branch seems ancient now :-) I hope you guys all like it, though. 0 Share this post Link to post

The best thing about this release though is that DEH support is pretty much spot-on. All those old weapon mods with 83K deh files now work properly. 0 Share this post Link to post
fraggle Posted December 14, 2008 I would have loved to have kept the old icon but it was based on the copyrighted Doom graphics. The debian Chocolate Doom package was already being patched to remove the icon, so I decided to do it properly. I asked around to see if anyone would make a free replacement but nobody seemed interested, so I made one myself. It's not the best icon but it's good enough in my eyes. Of course, you're free to patch the old icon back in if you want, but it seems like a rather pointless effort. 0 Share this post Link to post
