What settings do you doom with?

Recommended Posts

I doom using zDoom 1.22, I use 1.22 because I play on zDaemon sometimes, I use freelook and jump and no cheats while playing single player, although jump is a little cheap :)

What are your settings usually and what sourceport do you use?

WTF? Why would anyone play that old shitty game... Doom sucks man, go play a real game, like 3D Bass Fishing, or Virtual Stamp Collecting.

Normally PrBoom with all fancy settings off so that it looks and plays exactly like Vanilla Doom.
I do occasionally play ZDoom using the mouse combined with keyboard but I still keep the settings close to Vanilla Doom, unless I play a mod which require jumping and/or looking up and down.

1. ZDoom 1.23B33, 640x400 resolution, WSAD keyboard setup, IWADs converted to Hexen format in another directory for editing.

2. PRBoom with default settings.

My control is the same for all ports:

Mouse1 = fire
Mouse2 = forward
Mouse = turn left and right, slow backwards
Space = fast backwards
Shift = use/open
Z = strafe left (almost never use)
X = strafe right (see above)
Alt + move mouse left or right= strafe (use 99.9% of the time)

ZDOOM: 1024x768 rez, sprites and particles, rocket trails on, new automap colors, all other settings set to vanilla DOOM style

JDOOM: Dynamic lighting on, lens flares off, intensity of 4, multiply

There. Now go home.

usually:
novert2.exe, doom2.exe, wasd for movement, joyb_speed 31 for autorun.
MSN Zone IPX emulation for deathmatch.

for maps that require an advanced port:
boom 2.02 or prboom 2.2.2 with doom2.exe compat settings.

sometimes:
zdaemon/zdoom for deathmatch or coop.

rarely:
legacy (only for nimrod)

I thought you were a keyboard God who didn't like using a mouse.

Hrm, well, inactive accounts were pruned.

I don't know the exact definition of "inactive", but it was probably if you hadn't posted in a few months.

Why dont you use freelook and jump in Doom? I use zDoom and I always use Freelook and Jumping in single player.

I don't want to have to go searching through the old threads right now, but just take my word for it: I made some posts awhile back that I tried using a mouse and it was actually better than I thought.

Virtual Stamp Collection kind of gives the joke away :)

I mostly use zdoom v1.22 now, not the bloated 23 betas, with a Gravis Gamepad Pro, which is old, but feels nice and can control everything I need it to in Doom, including jump and strafe and weapon shift up/down.

Heh, tonight was wicked.

Me, some snacks, a pitcher of old fashioned lemonade, and a date with Memento Mori maps 01-17, with my girlfriend nicely out of the way out with friends. Sheer self-indulgence, hmm.

Port: ZDoom v1.23 b33
Resolution: 640x480

CONTROLS
WASD movement (A&D to strafe)
Mouselook (high sensitivity)
Space to jump
Left click to shoot
Mousewheel to change weapon (although I usually just use the number keys)
Right click is secondary fire (on games/ports that support it, ie EDGE)

When I get this comp upgraded I will probably play ZDoom on 1280x1024 resolution...

Well, thanks to you not specifying what port it needed, I had to restart my 'puter in safe mode.


It works in doom2.exe, Prboom, and Legacy. Zdoom displays one error message in the console saying it will not play doom2.exe recorded demos. YOU FAIL IT.

As I said...you SHOULD HAVE SPECIFIED!!!!!!!! For all I knew, maybe you Do have ZDOOM.

And yes, I know it displays an error message. I couldn't get to the menu no matter how many times I pressed "esc" or typed "quit + enter". Seems to me like YOU fail it.

BTW...OMG!!!! Lüt, I can honestly say you abso(your name)ly SUCK at mouse!
