  1. Our in action today. Not sure what games you can play on other gaming routers, but people seem to enjoy playing on ours 😉 - & &

  2. Headline: #Doom
    Screenshot: #FreeDoom

    ...also can we stop with the headlines that look like they're out of a scifi horror?

  3. You come to a fork in the road, with two people standing near it and a sign. The sign says

    Greetings travelers! One road leads to safety, and the other road leads to certain doom. The two people know which road is which, but beware: one always lies and the other always tells the truth!
    You ask
    What would the other person say if I asked them which road leads to certain doom?
    One person responds:
    I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Doom, is in fact, UZDoom/Freedoom, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Freedoom plus UZdoom. Doom is not a game that can run on modern operating systems unto itself, but rather another component of a fully functioning UZDoom system made useful by---
    The second person interrupts:
    No it's not: there's no such thing as Freedoom.

  4. Из котельной — в Ад: Doom на ПЛК

    Я — инженер техподдержки, наши клиенты знают меня как Aleksandr_Khlebnikov . Одна из задач инженеров в нашей компании — тестировать новое оборудование. Мы как раз выпустили модуль расширения, добавляющий контроллеру выход HDMI. Смотреть на веб-интерфейс во время тестирования скучно, и в голову пришла мысль: а что если попробовать запустить на контроллере Doom? В железо я верил, в свои умения — чуть меньше. Все-таки контроллер «заточен» под специфические задачи, а лишняя функциональность в ОС отключена. Но раз внутри работает полноценный Linux — почему бы не попробовать? Итак, эта история о том, как я подключил к контроллеру HDMI-монитор, как запустил Doom и что из этого вышло. А еще о том, как я сделал геймпад с интерфейсом Modbus RTU.

  8. @Gammitin I wonder how much breaks if you use #FreeDoom Phase 2 instead of DOOM2.WAD

  9. If you're making a guide to a video game intended for beginners, it is in no way helpful to begin with

    Before you start, go into settings and carefully reconfigure the controls in the way that will be easiest for you.
    Someone who has never played this particular game does not know what a good controller setup for them is, and they aren't going to be able to figure one out until they have experience playing the game.

    In other news, I want to learn how to play classic Doom or Freedoom (I have only played the first level of each). I like using controllers, and I have an 8bitdo Ultimate controller (layout similar to an Xbox controller) as well as a Steam Deck.

    What is a good set of controller button-mappings to use playing Doom, at least when I am starting out and still learning how the game works?

  10. I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Doom, is in fact, UZDoom/Freedoom, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Freedoom plus UZdoom. Doom is not a game that can run on modern operating systems unto itself, but rather another component of a fully functioning UZDoom system made useful by the ZDL Launcher, Zscript and ACL scripting languages, DeePsea editor, and other vital components comprising a fully functioning First-Person Shooter game.

    Many gamers play a modified version of the UZDoom system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of UZdoom which is widely used today is often called Doom, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the UZDoom system, developed by the UZDoom Project.

    There really is a Doom, and these people are playing it, but it is just a part of the game they play. Doom is the WAD: the data file containing levels and graphics for the game engine to access. The WAD is an essential part of a FPS game, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete FPS game. Doom is normally used in combination with the UZDoom engine: the whole system is basically UZDoom with Doom or Freedoom added, or UZDoom/Freedoom. All the so-called Doom distributions are really distributions of UZdoom!

  11. Assuming no technical hiccups, I'll be starting my first #Twitch stream today at 7:00 pm EST, as part of #DOSember. My plan is to play #Freedoom (using the DSDA #Doom source port) for the first hour then moving on to #TexMurphy : The Pandora Directive.

  18. This is Phase 2 of Freedoom, with linear progression akin to DOOM II. Freedoom is a free and open-source first-person shooter game aiming to provide all content for a DOOM-style game. Started in 1999 after id Software released DOOM's source code under the GNU GPL, Freedoom fills the gap for free content.

  19. Freedoom is a free and open-source first-person shooter game using the DOOM engine. Initiated in 1999, it aims to provide a complete game experience compatible with custom levels, music, and graphics from the DOOM community. Version 0.13.0, released on January 29, 2024, offers enhanced compatibility, removal of Boom features, bug fixes, and new content. This video shows Phase 1.

  20. I started playing Freedoom Phase 2 with Doom 4 Vanilla from the beginning and it is a banger, I have to say. D4V makes the gameplay more dynamic and the textures work really well with Freedoom's architecture which is much richer than the original one (duh). I like subtle nods to the original maps. It feels familiar yet different.

    But blood instead of water doesn't stop surprising me. It is probably the biggest change in the visuals. And lack of the window texture.

  25. I played "Hostile Takeover," map 15 of Freedoom Phase 2, with Doom 4 Vanilla and it worked together very well. I tried liking Freedoom monsters but some of them, especially low-tiers, are hard to work with. But some maps are brilliant. Complex and with rich architecture. Furthermore, GZDoom's ambient occlusion improves the immersion.

  30. So finally I managed to edit and upload the tutorial on how to play the hottest Doom 2 mod of the year on Arch Linux.

    If you really want a great horror experience that doesn't just try to spook you with jumpscares on every corner, get the mod, read the developer's journal for context, and play!

  31. @rberger Fortunately, if you really want to play a game like Doom, #FreeDoom exists as a fully open source Doom game with no connection to that asshole.
