I want diminishing lighting.
I want vertical recoil
I want full 1920x1080, instead of the 4:3 that Crispy Doom has.
I want the projected crosshair, or as I like to think of it, the laser sight. Crispy Doom is the only one so far that has the projected crosshair that also locks on to enemies to show you where the auto-aim is pointing.

Damn, Crispy has a lot of features I didn't even know about. As far as I'm aware, no other ports have crosshairs that lock on, they're all completely stationary and unchanging. Vertical recoil is possible in ZDoom-family ports, but it requires modding, I don't think it's a built in option.

I think Crispy Doom is going to be the only port that has you covered on each of those points, it has everything but the widescreen support. Considering that the port is clearly going well beyond classic vanilla limits, perhaps Fabian would be open to including a toggle between 16:9 and 4:3 in some future build. I don't want to derail the original thread so I decided to respond here, but it couldn't hurt to send Fabian a message / asking him about the possibility of implementing it.

I tried your password and it didn’t work you damn liar

Hi Phileosophos, I was just wondering if you have a link to that MUS2MID source by chance? That would be great.

At some stage, I would love to see the WadAuthor source as well. No rush of course - I just have this pipe dream about a “best of both worlds” editor that essentially combines the functionality and UI of my two favourite mapping tools (the other being Doom Builder). Cheers!

I really like DEMIN.MID, it's awesome!

I want to see a thread where only @seed, @Pegg , @Alper002 and @Ichor post. It would be a thing of beauty.

Gokuma’s return was the boon the doom community needed, I swear there’s a 50% chance of me laughing my ass off when you post. I knew it was gonna be the case ever since that Barfthesda thread a few weeks back 

Anyone else think “Ramming the Ramparts” would make a great name for a castle map? You could probably make a great wad based off Trump’s word salad over the years, or at least find some great map titles.

My life has been pretty whack recently.

Went through a big breakup almost 2 months ago and had to find a new place to live in a pinch, so I begrudgingly left my old job which I enjoyed..

I’m just about fully moved into my current place after months of slumming it with friends, but about a week ago I got extremely sick, a horrible infection in my gums and both ear canals that has them swollen to the point of severe pain. Due to the swelling I am almost completely deaf at the moment as well - hopefully I’ll be able to hear again once this is over. Being hospitalised sucks ass.

I’m so thankful for modern medicine and painkillers. While I’m drugged I can function enough to read Doomworld and browse around on my phone and torture/amuse myself with Twitter and YouTube and stuff (thank fuck for closed captions). I can’t wait til

this is over though, when the drugs wear off the pain is so intense that it has me in tears. It’s been this way for about a week now.

I just can’t wait for this to be over. The pain is worse than any other pain I’ve felt in my life, I can only describe it as feeling like my head is literally about to explode from being overinflated.

My parents have been so helpful and I’m really lucky to have them nearby for this - if it had struck just a bit earlier while I was in Melbourne, I’d be dealing with this all on my own!

Sorry for the whiny, sappy post. I’m just not used to this extreme level of pain. When the drugs wear off it’s absolute hell. I just can’t wait for this to be over.. if it was possible I’d give anything to make it stop. At the peak of pain I was bawling uncontrollably and seriously considered ending it all just for some reprieve. I’ve felt down emotionally before, but I’ve never experienced physical suffering to this level and have a new appreciation for those who experience chronic pain.

When I get through this I will never view my life the same way. I’ll have an appreciation for just feeling normal that I’ve never had before. I think the first thing I’ll do once I’m able is walk on the beach and listen to the ocean. All I can hear right now is white noise and it’s seriously wearing on my sanity.

Just wanted to post this for those who have been wondering why I haven’t been in discord or in any game servers lately. I desperately wish I could be. Wish me luck, people - I really need it now more than ever before. Thanks for reading this.

I hope Erik returns one day and just releases like 5-10 maps in the style of Scythe 1. If there was ever a wad I wanted, this would be it!

Well, I am done with relationships for quite a while. Last week I got a place with the woman I’ve been seeing for 8 months, then one week in she has dumped me, very unexpectedly. In 4 weeks time I’ll be moving from Melbourne to Batemans Bay, about 900km north. Looking for a fresh start and to be closer to my family again. The only reason I even came to Melbourne back in 2013 was to be with my ex-wife, so I think there’s really nothing left here for me at this point.

tl;dr: Bleh!!

When will scifista return??

DM is getting huge!

I desperately want to believe this was intentional

My grandfather lived a long life and was a good man.. it’s hard to accept that he just left us a few hours ago. Everything has to come to an end.. Rest In Peace Eric Post, it was truly a pleasure knowing you. 😞

Allow me to give you some advice: Do not release things as sequels to known series, especially when their design, gameplay and overall quality are extremely poor compared to the series overall. Your Plutonia 3 wad is shameless clickbait, that is why it has one star and is renowned as one of the worst releases in 2017. If you had done the right thing and released it as it's own entity, you'd be getting less negative reviews as there would be no preconceived notions for the quality of the product. I'm telling you this because I hate to see people repeatedly make the same mistake. This is intended as friendly advice, not a harsh message.

Hey folks, having another Doomshack Plays session, this time it's STYX DM and DWELLER2! A classic combo of maps.

Join us on ZDaemon at [Doomshack.org] Styx Pack FFA

Here's our discord! https://discord.gg/gsVSHGK

hi there FonziBuddy

i miss our dm sessions :'''''''''''(

Hey man, just checking if you've released or worked on any maps in the last year or so? I was looking through a whole bunch of ancient shit and came across one of your older maps, god the urge to play some Tango turf!

Probably my favorite username on this entire site

Yay, just passed 2,000 subs on Youtube! Got another Rollercoaster Tycoon video and Doom related video on the way in the coming weeks

Strange lack of NIH posts recently!

That MIDI you posted is pretty damn cool man, I especially like the second half with the solo. My only criticism would be that some of the nots seem too sustain for too long on the opening chords for the first 40 seconds or so. I really liked it though!

Really looking forward to those re-imagined tunes, you guys made some truly iconic Doom music and it will be awesome to hear it officially redone by the composers themselves. My ears are keenly awaiting!

YO what the fuck are you all doing with your life, why haven't you signed up for the big team DM tournament??

I'd love to see some more people participating! This is competitive, but it's also for fun, so please do not hesitate to join in.

Also if you're as good as myself/Decay or better lets team up!!
