Rick Clark has been busy, releasing a new Doombot CTF map entitled "The Parthenon," not to mention fixing several errors in DTNC and moving it up to version 1.1.

Lots of news from Rick Clark today... he mailed us to tell us that he's created a HTML compiled help file of all his ZDoom tutorials which should be on CDROM.COM /newstuff shortly, and he's also updated his CTFPack for the Doombot 4.0, adding in node files for all the maps.

You think UV speedruns are boring to watch? Weirdo...

I just finished up my list of the ten must-have WADs for every Doomer, which I'll probably post here on December 31st or so. Naturally, a lot of the WADs I picked won't be much of a surprise, but I think it's quite a nice one. One thing I noticed while choosing exactly which WADs I thought deserved to be on the "must-play" list: there were quite a few great ones I reluctantly had to pass over. What's on your must-play list of Doom/Doom 2 WADs? If you have more than ten, wht criteria would you use to pare down the list?

Pretty much no new FPSes have 3D renderers... Unreal Tournament does, but Q3 doesn't, Kingpin doesn't, Daikatana won't, Wheel of Time doesn't AFAIK, and I don't think Soldier of Fortune does...

That's right, famed mapper Iikka Keranen has released a new Doom 2 deathmatch map. No, I don't know why either. It's called IKBROWNY, and it's available here. The sad thing is that Iikka hasn't made a Doom map in god knows how many years and it's still better than 99% of the stuff out there...

Dunno how good it is in DM but it certainly looks quite awesome. Of course so did AddictivDM and those have become infamous for having shitty gameplay.

The Rick has updated all the screenshots for MB1 and added a shot for map 04. As he says, "I am currently working on maps 5 and 6 so the first Chapter is just about done. There will be seven total maps in this chapter." This is all on his maps page, BTW.

King Elvis sent word that he's released a public beta of his King Doom frontend, which will load WADs, DEHs, BEXes, and lots more. It's currently only for PRBoom / glBoom, so if that floats your boat, go download.

Afterglow has a huge update on his homepage talking about all sorts of stuff, from making new levels, to his MP3 playlist, to "new" games, to university applications, to a mystery picture, and naturally a whole lot more.

Scott Hilleard emailed us to let us know about a new ZDoom/ZDoomGL launcher he's created entitled Scottles Doom Launcher. Apparently, he has modeled the look and interface after the Doom Legacy launcher.

To do auto-mlook change the y-axis setting to "freelook" or something, and glEDGE gave me a black screen too, but just press enter or escape and you should hear the familiar clanking. glEDGE is ultra-hyper-beta though and is basically unplayable right now...

What did Mordeth do to you, Dagger?

Fanatic's computer decided to take a nosedive last week, causing him to have to buy a new one. Unfortunately, this means that all the QDOOM files have been lost, and he's cancelling the project. Wait, what I meant to say was that nothing was lost because he backed up his files in multiple places. Sorry.

Covert Operations has updated saying that they're expecting that a release of the Edge engine is imminent, and to celebrate this they'll be putting out a demo version of Covert Ops. They expect an alpha of edge to be released literally within a day or two. Once the alpha is released, they'll crank over into beta testing and look to release shortly after that.
