The Experience

Yeah !!! A Doom Excel macro would be cool :P

Hehe ... make me laugh here :) How is the progress with "Network coding" ? I remember you told me once that you were looking forward to learn !

Neat ! I just compiled a KDX installation *.pkg out of this. So if you are a KDX user and would like to have source port number 22 out of 22 supported ports for KDX, download this (you may need "Save Target As"): http://kingdoom.de.vu/opndoom0201.pkg http://kingdoom.de.vu/opndoom0201.txt Simply use the KDX PKG Manager for installing, it does the job for you.

That is ... indeed interesting :P

How can you make the decision what is shit and what not?

Be quiet? Why that? Fortunately we can say our opinion, that is one of the highest goods !

Annoy you? No that was not my intention.

I currently have no problem, I just wondered about your "theres only one URL" statement ... and you felt hurt once more I guess. Seriously, do you have a problem with critism? It really seems to me, that you have !

LOL ... I know you have some need for recognition.

Supposed he likes to be guardianshipped.

You can use KDX for doing that, also you can play a LAN game with the 20 other ports shipped with it ... if you download the KINGSIZE release. Just put the computer name or IP address of you opponent in the "Host For Muliplayer" field. Works also with Trillian, ICQ, IRC, GSA ... as a matter of principle with every application that provides you with a hostname or IP address of your buddy.

Lucky me I mirrored the In-Span's right to my HD.

Enjay, I'm so sorry !!! I have seen this very late. Anyway here comes what everyone is expecting: kingdoom.tk :) ...and the ZDoom feature for the [IWADSearch.Directories] is cool, but KDX has this since August 2002 and it works much faster, because KDX is using a hirachical cache system where all PWAD locations will be stored. Of course it does also a search on the harddrive if the PWAD is not found in the cache and adds it then. You will find the searchpath.cfg in the KDX \sys folder, also reachable if you right-click the KDX task-bar icon -> Misc Config -> Searchpath Config "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom2" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom2_dm_0-z" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom2_dm_mega" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom2_dm_ports" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom2_sp_0-z" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\Doom2_sp_mega" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom2_sp_ports" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\kingdoom_mega" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\ROCKET_DOOM2_DM" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\DOOM2_SP_DLW" "doom2.wad","$appdir\pwad\DOOM2_TC" "doom.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom" "doom.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom_dm_0-z" "doom.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom_dm_mega" "doom.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom_sp_0-Z" "doom.wad","$appdir\pwad\doom_sp_mega" "doom.wad","$appdir\pwad\DOOM_SP_DLW" "hexen.wad","$appdir\pwad\hexen" "hexen.wad","$appdir\pwad\hexen_dm_0-z" "hexen.wad","$appdir\pwad\hexen_dm_mega" "hexen.wad","$appdir\pwad\hexen_sp_0-z" "hexen.wad","$appdir\pwad\hexen_sp_mega" "heretic.wad","$appdir\pwad\heretic" "heretic.wad","$appdir\pwad\heretic_dm_0-z" "heretic.wad","$appdir\pwad\heretic_dm_mega" "heretic.wad","$appdir\pwad\heretic_sp_0-z" "heretic.wad","$appdir\pwad\heretic_sp_mega" "tnt.wad","$appdir\pwad\tnt" "plutonia.wad","$appdir\pwad\plutonia" FYI: If a PWAD is in the cache, it takes less than a second to find it out of over 7000 WAD's (=4.5 GB) on my system which is only 450 MHz And for this drag'n drop thing: You can also drag'n drop files to the KDX main screen, which means ALL ports launched with KDX automatically become this drag'n drop feature :) If you install the KDX "Send To" addon, you can also send any WAD, DEH, LMP, whatever-doom-related-file with just the context menu within Windows to KDX KDX has also a drag'n drop workbench, all files you put in are automatically saved as recent file list when you close the workbench window + you can save it in the database a selection. Last but not least all savegames in dependence of all files you drag'n drop, send to, or load in any other way with KDX will be stored, you don't have to worry about or copy them by hand. in any other way

I LOVE the consoledoom.wad

The best software for that is Webwasher webwasher.com It is free for private use. You can also try proxomitron.org which offers a rich set of setting, but this is more for the expereinced users, fine if you would like to set ip up on a server acting as LAN proxy

Very interesting ;) I believe for direct downloads you can do it like this make an empty .html file, let's say mydownload001.html and place this stuff into it <html> <head> <META http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=http://www.host.com/mysite/downloads/file.zip"> You can also put some tracker stuff into the html.

Folks, I have fixed the KDX downloads, but mainly the KDX-4-2-RC2-KINGSIZE (51 MB) This one works now as single file download. It is 51 MB, because it has 21 sourceports in it, currently all sourceports I was able to get working under Windows XP :) Here is the complete list: ACBot...........1.04 AC Bot is based on Doom Legacy Boom Win32......2.02 Boom to Win32 port (1st PrBoom) CSDoom..........0.7 Beta Doom3d..........1.16 Needs patch for KDX (included) EDGE............1.27 JBoom...........1.8.3 Beta 8th Feb 2003 JDoom...........1.14.0 Doomsday 1.7.6 + 3D Models JHeretic........1.3.0 Doomsday 1.7.6 + 3D Models JHexen..........1.2.0 Doomsday 1.7.6 + 3D Models Legacy..........1.40 PrBoom..........2.2.2 Skulltag........0.93 Beta Vavoom..........1.15 Beta 1 + 3D Models ZDaemon.........1.03 Zdoom...........2.00 Beta Build 42 ZCajun..........0.99 Based on ZDoom 1.22 Zdoom GL........0.73 Based on ZDoom 2.00 Build 38 Eternity........3.31 Beta 1 Doom4Win........1.11 LsdlDoom........1.4.4.4 WinDoom.........0.96a They are all ready integrated and configured ready for use with KDX. This release is based on the KDX executeable 4.2.96 which should be the absolute 4.2 final release. http://www.kingdoom.tk or http://www.kingdoom.de.vu Hope you get some pleasure from it :) It is from a Doom-Fan for Doom-Fans

Sorry, the download is broken again, the error happened due to bad transmission of the downloaded file. It is way to hard to find a free server nowadays, allowing large files. Anyway, maybe I can get rid of that problem if somebody is so kind to provide me some space.

Whattabout : http://www.doomworld.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=11 :)

Hmm, it can be of course possible, that there is some incompatibility with the installer or whatever. Please write me an email with some more detailed information to: <nospam>kdx@kingdoom.ath.cx<nospam> Thanks

- I don't distribute it (to make things clear). If I ever used the word "distribute", it was because english is not my native language :) I only give a copy of free downloadable stuff to my friends on demand - I have doubts anyone who was that nasty to include a term like "..may NOT be distributed on CD" will sue me for that. That will be to expensive. There is still a difference between have right and become right. EDIT: I just made a quick scan on the stuff, there are only a handful of authors not whishing their stuff to be distributed on CD. So I just delete them and I'm finished.

I guess it is no problem, since -The CD's are not sold for profit -It is something like "download-on-demand", for users with very low bandwith connections -I have kept all files intact as required by the WAD text templates -Most (I have not checked all) allow to distribute in any electronic format -It is a CD from a Doom-Fan for Doom-Fans (an appeal to comperativement not to sue me) But thanks anyway for your hint ! If someone wants not to see his / her stuff included, I am known in the Doom Community. No problem to regulate it :)

Maybe this here is something for you: http://www.crosswinds.net/~kingdoom ...but be warned, it is HUGE.

Maybe, it is DZone 2003++ über

That is huge, isn't it? But there is also a Core release, just a few KB. This one is enough if you just want to take a fast sniff into the stuff. Note: KDX will also run if you ONLY have the kdfrontend.exe (277 KB) and a few KDX sourceport configuration files (*.kpc) It creates all other necesary config files in "self-energy" There is also the KDX CD Release in progress: 5 GB of Doom stuff on 3 CD's, coming very soon. That is even way too much for those broadband guys :P I love the Xtreme !
