DooM is life, the rest is just details!

Welcome to my humble domain fellow DooMster!

Whats new?

- K, got about 80 k left, so here's a 75k demo of me against mangler, with mangler being shown a new view of life, the universe and everything. Read the txt file. This is a MUST to download, since this is the closest you will get to a comedy show in a demo.
DISCLAIMER : THIS DEMO HAS BEEN PUT UP FROM MY VIEW FOR A REASON! If you choose to view the demo from mangler's view I take no responsibility for your RED CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) WHATSOEVER.

- Von, the link is below, and points to Classic Gaming's Doom page.

- I know there's gonna be millions of people claiming otherwise, but we were the first guys on the entire planet... infact in the entire universe to play 8 player DooM and tell the Legacy DooM guys about it aswell as send 'em demos :) Cool ay.

- Well, The Legacy DooM (doom3) guys have released a new .exe for 8 player network. This one should be more stable. Thus I won't put any demos up now, since all the 8 player ones we have are very short. Looks like another weekend of heavy dooming ahead ;)

- It happened, I just played my first 8 player doom game ever... Here's a screenshot for now... more later when I recover :)

- Hey cool... I've been mentioned on Blue's in conjunction with the DooM3 release, and I'm their first multiplayer tester ;)

- That's it. The world has ended. An 8 player DooM has been released. This is a bad thing, 'cause there are two or three of us here who still think DooM is better than quake and quake2. I personally regard it as a religion and take it very seriously, thus I have a hard time not dying of a heartattack in a 4 player game, yet alone an 8 player game which is about 4 times as hectic. Anyway, enough babbling. We are organizing an 8 player game at my place this Sunday, and WILL post demos. Definitely one on DooM2 level one if all works out :) This DooM, supports multiple vid modes which can be changed in game, similar to quake. Things have been done to demo recording, translucency has been added, and other very bad things have been done. Oh yeah, mlook is there, but thank god it is usefull for absolutely nothing in multiplayer :) OK, ok, here is the homepage. WHAT ARE YOU READING ON FOR? GO GO GO!!!!!!

- Great things have happened. About the DooM movie according to Functional Entropy. No cast, no director yet. BUT here's the cool part : Budget is estimated at $120 mil :) Tristar is anticipating a July 2nd 1999 release. YEHAA GIB GIB GIB!!!!

- A good site for a list of all those 32 level megapacks, and PC's, etc is this site. Go to the links and files section.

- A windoom that does TCP/IP, has no maximum frame rate, use dsound, dddraw is out, very kewl. Get it off Functional Entropy.

- The DOS port of DooM source with network and sounds support (no midi) is here.

- This is amazing... since the release of the Doom source compiled for DOS (202 KB), many things have come to my attention. One of them being that anotther GLDooM is gonna support 16 players!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOooooooooo!!! Here's a few interesting places to go :

  • Project Doom These are the guys making that 16 player version of gldoom.. includes many other awesome engine improovements (like the demo playback VCR style).
  • The Doom Programmer's Network is a place where programmers can exchange ideas and information.
  • Functional Entropy is a news site where you can keep up with the doings in Doom source programming.
  • Classic Gaming's Doom page Get your doom alphas and pre betas here. Lots of history, bugs, very interesting.
  • - Oh yeah, Arnie (Arnold Schwarzenegger) has been interviewed as a likely candidate for the DooM movie.

    - Be assured that if GLDooM supports 8 players, we will have an 8 player demo up of our best players on DooM2 map01 (if this will be supported) a few days later, with a video recording of us trashing our equipement thru the game (8 player will drive many ppl mad I think)... really looking forward to it.

    - added a link to a GLDooM site,

    - Have put up 2 (3 player) demos on the download page from the DooMathon at thief's house. Am busy going thru demos to find a nice 2 player demo....

    - forgot to mention, had a DooMathon at thief's house last Sunday. Me and VipeR were present. Will dig up a demo or two to put up.

    - I shat in my pants when I read this and lost total bladder control... GLDooM. Go here. This conversion has the posibility of 8 player deathmatch (had to retype that 3 times my fingers shook so much), and after the release of the source code by ID, someone might even add TCP/IP support (internet DooM). My God.... If all this happens I will be living on the streets with a generator, a PC, and a stolen cellular phone, and a metabolism requiring 2 hours of sleep a day.. (for legal issues, the previous sentence about the stolen cellular phone was completely untrue, and I accept no respnsibility for anyone getting silly ideas from it, including me)

    - Now this is bad shit.... MUST SEE!!!

    - Oh my GOD. The DooM movie is still in the FUCKING WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!! Tristar picked up the rights to the movie version of DooM! Hehe, unfortunately, they still haven't found a director. This is where I read it.

    - At the same time, Keerat, one of the five p@ism members mails me, and tells me that p@ism has a homepage. I used to be a member of this 'clan' (bunch of fucking looneys!!!), but then sorta lost contact (still have that T-shirt guys). Anyway.. here the Homepage.

    - Managed to dig up Punisher.wad which was used for one of my demos on the Download page.

    - Added a link to Blue's DooM tips.

    Use this to get outta 'ere :

    The best thing you can do with this page if you play Quake is go to the DAMAGE PAGE. It is a great clan page located in South Africa. if you play DooM, stay here.
