    Ever play Doom on a PHONE!?

    I have one "official" (featured in the official store) version of Freedoom on my feature phone (a "smart dumb phone" under KaiOS, a Nokia 2720). https://www.kaiostech.com/store/apps/?bundle_id=kaios.app.freedoom Uneasy controls, but it works. I've not tried to change the IWAD, but it's possible.

    Post a picture of yourself!

    Me, running a game of Dishonored 2d20 RPG last year. From the local newspaper : https://www.letelegramme.fr/finistere/tourch-29140/les-jeux-de-roles-avec-a-nous-de-jouer-samedi-28-et-dimanche-29-octobre-a-tourch-6453695.php Just in front of me, you can see my amazing low-tech wireless speaker (empty roll of toilet paper + 2 yoghurt pots).

    So, how old are you ?

    I'm 51. I've played Wolf3D in '92, and Doom in '93 !

    How tall are you ?

    1,88m according to the latest medical measurement. (That's 0,0010151187904968 nautic miles or something) I stopped growing when I was 15, I was very tall back then compared to my schoolmates, at my current age (51) I'm tall but not exceptionnally so.
  5. I've (somewhat) completed a little personal project : ready-to-play packages containing open-source data (FreeDOOM) and software (Chocolate DOOM), and a selection of classic WADs. Those packages are less than 32MB (unzipped) and include a simple GUI, basically an exe which launches a .BAT menu. There's also a WIP Blasphemer version. URL : https://osr-vf.itch.io/ross and https://osr-vf.itch.io/freethinker (WIP Blasphemer) (old Google Site removed) All three packages include : Chocolate Doom / Heretic Random WAD generation thanks to SLIGE + ZenNode (SLIGE + dm2conv + BSP for Blasphemer) First package, "ROSS - ultimate revelation", include : Freedoom1 data + SLIGE maps Two full megaWADs : Switcheroom and Eternal Torture Two shorter WADs : Crusades and UAC_DEAD Second package, "ROSS - inferno earth", include : FreeDOOM2 data + SLIGE maps Two full megaWAD : DemonFear and Zone 300 Two shorter WADs : Null Space and Nostromo's Run Third (WIP) package, "Freethinker - Shade of the Wyrm Tamers" Blasphemer data + SLIGE maps Two "full" megaWADs (3 episodes) : Unbeliever and HUMP mini Two episode WADs : Shadowcaster (E5) and Malice (E1)

    ROSS : my little FreeDOOM-based packages

    "Vanilla" Blasphemer IWAD requires a limit-removing port... The Deathmatch variant is truely vanilla (AFAIK), though.

    ROSS : my little FreeDOOM-based packages

    Freethinker updated : Blasphemer IWAD updated from v0.17 to v0.18 single-map WADs (Valley of Saints and The Crypts) replaced by full episodes (Shadowcaster and Malice)
  12. Latest Breton lesson : when you want to put an object pronoun at the beginning of a sentence, you have to replace it with a possessive adjective. "I love you", the most neutrally possible (I'm in love for you) = Karout a ran ac'hanout (Love I-do you). "I love you", focussing on the subject (I'm the one who loves you) = Me a gar ac'hanout (Me loves you). "I love you", focussing on the object (you're the one I love) "Da garout a ran" (Your love I-do). Or possibly "Da garan" (Your I-love), shorter, cuter but grammatically weirder.

    France, Brittany, Le Relecq-Kerhuon I was born in Brest, and have lived between Roscoff and Brest (0-6 yo), in Saint Guénolé / Penmarc'h (6-15 yo), Quimper (15-18 yo) for high school, Brest (18-20 yo) for prépa, Angers (20-22 yo) for engineering school, between Paris and Chatenay-Malabry (22-23 yo) to finish school, Saint Guénolé / Penmarc'h (23-24 yo) unemployed, in Paris (24-28 yo) for my first job, Brest (28-48 yo) then Le Relecq-Kerhuon (48+ yo) for my current job. I'll probably retire in Lesconil / Plobannalec (my wife owns a house there) some 13 years in the future. The nickname "soner du" means "dark piper" in Breton.

    Heretic Episode Wads

    An answer there : https://www.doomworld.com/forum/post/1685777 Shadowcaster runs OK on chocolate heretic by forcing the hhe version to 1.3 (or something like that) For me running shadowaster with the blasphemer IWAD) : chocolate-heretic.exe -iwad ..\BLASPHEM\blasphdm.wad -merge ..\shadow\Shadow.wad -hhever 1.3 -deh ..\shadow\Shadow.hhe -warp 5 1 Without this "hhever" thing, chocoheretic crashes with an "error parsing dehacked file" message. I now have a nice collection of Vanilla Heretic episode WADs to put in the next version of my Freethinker project : Shadowcaster, Malice, HUMP mini, Unbeliever

    What does PS1 Doom's music bring to mind?

    When I'm running the Rogue Trader tabletop RPG, I'm using Aubrey Hodges PSDoom, Final PSDoom and Doom64 soundtracks whenever the characters explore abandoned high-tech ruins, ghost ships and other dirty ultra-tech mazes (and I'm using Torchlight & Torchlight 2 soundtracks when exploring lush, exotic planets).

    Where should I put the iwads on Linux?

    That's what I do, first thing I do after installing a linux is to create a /home/user/WAD directory. And I create one launcher (.sh file) per PWAD I want to play.

    Blasphemer discussion

    I've put together a package (for Windows) including Blasphemer 0.17, sample PWADs, random WAD generation (SLIGE+dm2conv+BSP) and an old-school GUI. It's called Freethinker : https://osr-vf.itch.io/freethinker It's still a WIP (like Blasphemer itself). Its part of my ROSS (random old-school shooter) project :

    Freethinker is out ! (but still a work-in-progress) https://osr-vf.itch.io/freethinker

    ROSS : my little FreeDOOM-based packages

    I'm not that ambitious ! I'm not using Oblige but SLIGE(+dm2conv) ; I may use Obsidian in the future but Vanilla Heretic WAD generation is not offered for the moment.

    ROSS : my little FreeDOOM-based packages

    Hey, I've found a good, original name for the medieval ROSS : FREETHINKER !
  24. soner du

    ROSS : my little FreeDOOM-based packages

    It's almost finished, I'm still playtesting when I have time... For WADs I've chosen "Unbeliever" and "HUMP mini" for megaWADs (3 episodes each), and "Valley of Saints" and "The Crypts" for single-map WADs. The IWAD is the DM version of Blasphemer (maps not actually played in the ROSS:Schism package). For random WAD generation, I'm using SLIGE (with " -levels 43" options, which actually create 47 levels), then dm2conv (for Doom2 => Heretic conversion, it creates E1M1-9 E2M1-9 E3M1-9 E4M1-9 E5M1-8 E6M1-3 but not E5M9 for some reason, so if you warp to E5M9 it's a DM level), then BSP51 (ZenNode isn't Heretic-compatible). This produces decent (though somewhat unbalanced) 5-episode megaWADs. I hesitate keeping the name "Schism" because I've discovered there's a PWAD already named like that. But the full name is actually "ROSS - Schism of the Wyrm" so I'll probably keep it.

    What "other" sourceports do you frequently use?

    I'm running Woof when I just need MBF-compatibility (eg Valiant and Eviternity). I may just use PrBoom+ again, or Eternity, but I dont really need all the options they offer.
