  1. Yeah, I figured out how to do it using the launcher - thanks though. I've started using jDoom anyway, it's so much nicer with the hires textures and the 3d models. Now I need to get it onto my schools computers for some old school deathmatch fun - and we don't have any cd-rom drives. Floppies it is then...


  2. Hi, I'm fairly new to the whole source port thing, and I have no idea whatsoever how to get custom maps to work with Doom Legacy. I'm trying to play some of the dwango maps multiplayer and can't figure out how to get it working in Legacy. Can someone help me out here? Thanks.


  3. I had been recording footage in Doom 3 a a few days ago with Fraps. Now, I never restart my computer, and I forgot Fraps was running (not recording though.)
    Now, today, I was in Comms transfer in the crawlspace and I saw the skeleton. I took a screenshot, with F12. This was my fraps start recording button also. The game slowed down a tiny bit, but not noticeably cause my computer is l33t, so I didn't notice anything wrong.
    I encountered the chainsaw dudes, which was quite funny, especially the way they run around like spastics making gorilla noises while trying to cut you into pieces, I had a chainsaw duel with one and then tried to save.
    "Not enough hard drive space," it said.
    I was obviously confused so I exited Doom 3. Then I saw 2 new icons on my desktop. They were both avi files. I right click on one and sure enough, it's about 4gb, and the other one is about 1.5gb. I open them up and between them there is 1/2 an hour of footage! I thought it was quite amusing that I managed to use all my free hard drive space without noticing.
    So has anyone else done this?


  4. I've preordered it and I'm getting it before alot of the other people here in NZ. gpstore.co.nz always has games a few days before retail stores like EB has them. My friend got UT2004 from them a week before I got my preordered copy.


  5. Well, we sold our old house and are nearly finished building our new one, and this computer just comes as part of the house cost. Therefore we pay it off with mortgage I believe. Even if we don't, my parents know that I need a decent computer and are willing to pay that much if some components (aka: screen) don't need upgrading later on.


  6. Hi there, I'm building a new computer within the next 2 months and so far have picked out these components (prices are in NZD. $1NZ is worth about $0.60USD.)

    Anyway, what do you think? I'm basing this around Doom 3 and running it really well. I'm currently deciding whether to keep the 2 raptors or just have 1, using it for Windows and games, and use another bigger hard drive for files and applications. Dunno how much effect not having the 2 raptors would have on loading times and game performance.

    EDIT: Oh shit, wrong forum. Can someone please move this to the "Everything else" forum? thanks.
