davinci Posted September 27, 2001 Hey was wonmdering if anyone on this board can help with a question since im at my wits end. I made a small one room map with wad author and it contains a start point and a SS trooper, it runs fine on doom2 on the pc but when i try to run it on doom4ce on my pocket pc (ipaq) it begins to load and then quits out to the today screen. Anyone know why this happens? PLEASE HELP i cant figure this out for the life of me. 0 Share this post Link to post
davinci Posted September 27, 2001 Its a port of doom for the pocket pc, a pocket pc is a little computer that can do many things and is very small. Now someone ported doom and you can play it on there. 0 Share this post Link to post
loser Posted September 27, 2001 I guess that port is not 100% perfect. Quote from this website http://www.jimmysoftware.com/Software/Doom4CE/ "This version supports all wad versions from ID Software as well as supporting custom wad files. (If you find some incompatibility, please let me know)" You should email the creator about your problem here: dum@jimmy.com (Jirapong Chalerntim) 0 Share this post Link to post
davinci Posted September 27, 2001 Is that a problem that doom4ce has? it only recognizes 2 or more rooms? 0 Share this post Link to post
deep Posted September 27, 2001 Is that a problem that doom4ce has? it only recognizes 2 or more rooms?Technically a node builder issue - DOOM just "happens" to work. Just try it and see. 0 Share this post Link to post
davinci Posted September 27, 2001 Nah it didnt work, thanks anyway. I talked some people on a pocket pc message board and was told that doom4ce basically sucks when it comes to custom wads and jimmy never bothered to fix they issue. 0 Share this post Link to post

deep Posted September 28, 2001 Nah it didnt workDo you have a copy of any PWAD that runs on this thing? If so could you send it to me? I have a feeling it has to do with byte ordering for the pointers. The ATARI version I worked with (for example) has the pointers in a different format suited for that processor. If that's the case, it would be fairly easy to fix that problem by writing a little convertor. I can tell if I see a PWAD that works. 0 Share this post Link to post
