ROM Hack DS Doom 1.0.0 released

[Scorpin200]

Hey the only way im goingto run this if the people that say it wo works sends me the zip, and only then will i know if it really something im not doing.

Just tried this on my M3 and it didnt work, it corrupted my card... so be warned M3 users.
Works great on my SC.

Doesn't work on the EZ4L huh?

 

[Vince989]

Copied the 3 files from the zip (hint : .nds, .cfg and .wad), copied my own Doom 1.wad as "doom.wad", tried it on SuperCard, worked on the first try...

And even better : the saves work too!

It will stay on my cart, even if it adds a few files to the root... The "clutter" is well worth it, as the port is really great, and is an issue they will fix with time, along with maybe optimizing the code a little bit more : it feels a bit choppy sometimes, when you're used to notice it...

Edit: Oh, and I miss the music... please!

This kicks ass! Followed the instructions on the included readme and it worked the first time. I miss the music too, but this is more than enough to keep me happy in the meantime. Hopefully this will help speed up things at the DSQuake camp.

It sucks that G6 isn't supported yet, couldn't they just make a program that adds the app,cfg, and wads into one file like NesDS does?

Coolness! Classic Doom! It was only a matter of time after all.

Still waiting on that other one though.

awww crap..... i was like WOOOO DOOM. i thought it was like the other doom ports(dreamcast, psp, etc) where u could use any wad. doom.wad or doom2.wad or dwango5.wad.... but its only doom 1.

when i can play doom2 and the dwango wads, that will be badasss.... oh man.... anyone old enough to remember dwango5??? if i could play that wireless... how sweet would that be.

Before saying it doesn't work, try it, by simply renaming its filename to "doom.wad", even if its some other version of doom.

I *THINK* Heretic and Hexen might work too, since I found them all in a torrent with only one player, but can't be sure if they all work under PrBoom, which is what this port uses as a basis...

welll... if that were the case.. i would ASSUME they would have stated it can infact support doom2 wads.... but illl try it out and post about it in 5mins.... brb

 

[seam1]

ok well you were right.

you can infact rename doom2 to doom.wad and it works. BUT renaming any of the dwango wads, to doom.wad does not work.

also there is no music.. which i know is stated on the website.. but man... it kinda sucks without it...

seam

 

[omegatr0n]

so you can infact play the entire doom 1 and 2 game...what about chapters do thsoe work...like knee deap in the dead...shores of hell...inferno

 

[seam1]

i really dont know. i was surprised dwango didnt work. im too drunk and tired to care. try renaming them to doom.wad and find out. later


bleh

 

[wohoo]

nice, it works for me ^^
but i'm missing the music. so i rather stick to doom 1 or 2 for gba on ds ;P

Ratx made an EZ4 compatible version:
http://l33t.spod.org/ratx/dsdoomEZ4/dsdoomEZ4.zip

Everything needs to be on the root and the bundled .wad is a shareware version of it.
I played it for a few minutes and it all works great.

Enjoy.

Update:

Here is a version hardcoded to run from a /doom/ directory on your card... no longer need to have the wads on the root.

Hey, thanks for that! I've had to use my old supercard cf.
Thanks again!!

 

[bikingcam]

looks cool but doesn't work on my EZ3

 

[Mangofett]

Does this work with final doom(first pack)? That was my fav doom game.

 

[tw8e60]

Has anyone been able to play wifi?, If so, can you please post a good tutorial, I've downloaded the game server program, but I dont know how to make it work.
If anyone has tested this please post how U did it.
Explain what to do on DS and PC.

Thanks.

Anyone having problems running this on M3 CF?
I'm using the .wad files from a Doom Collector's Edition install disc.
I've been sure to rename them to doom.wad.
Runs fine on my PC.

Here's what my DS is telling me:

Survived graphics init.
FAT_InitFiles(): initialized.
