Fully expecting a RickRoll here, but Romero released a new Doom level using only the shareware assets ...

His take on E1M8.

Well That Was Nice

#26945 posted by aDaya on 2016/01/15 21:16:25

A bit brutal and claustrophobic for my taste, but still good.
That Bruiser Brothers room looked very rad though.
Funny stuff, in the readme he states it was a warm-up.
We'll see what transpires in the future.

Excellent Level, Pretty Hard

Everyone go play this right now.

No Rickroll, Just Tried It

#26947 posted by Lunaran on 2016/01/15 21:25:59

10 secrets!

269 monsters on UV. Tried it from a pistol start - it's hard. Very cramped. Spent most of my playthrough with 20% health, hit a died-without-quicksaving-for-a-while shelf moment. I'll come back to it later.

Also rather ... questionable aesthetic choices? I'd believe it was a map that was actually made for Doom.

OK, so what do I need to get this shizzle on my PC - I'm looking for the "QuakeSpasm" of Doom I guess - a modern engine but with no fancy crap, just proper respect for the source material.

I would recommend Zdoom. It's as close to the quakespasm of doom as you're gonna get.

However!

#26950 posted by FifthElephant on 2016/01/15 21:35:43

If even this seems too feature rich then you could try Doom Retro which is a bit more stripped back... the purest doom experience (short of installing DOS) is probably Chocolate Doom.

#26951 posted by Lunaran on 2016/01/15 21:35:56

I use GZDoom. (It crashes unless you've already run ZDoom in the same folder, though, or else some config file doesn't get written. :P)

and when you're done with this map, play Valiant!

#26952 posted by metlslime on 2016/01/15 21:40:38

a long time ago, zdoom was a good choice. (authentic software renderer with bug fixes and stuff.) I have no idea now.

#26953 posted by skacky on 2016/01/15 21:54:08

I still use ZDoom myself. I rarely used GZDoom and it fullscreens on the wrong monitor for some reason.

#26954 posted by Kinn on 2016/01/15 21:55:11

I have just pruchased "Doom Classic Complete" on Steam.

Let's see how this goes then.

My body is ready...

ZDoom

#26955 posted by Zwiffle on 2016/01/15 22:08:44

GZDoom is alright, feels laggy to me for whatever reason.

#26956 posted by aDaya on 2016/01/15 22:12:28

Romero confirmed the "warmup" on this map was for his next FPS.

Joke about Daikatana and Romero making you his bitch all you want, I have hope on this one.

I Use Gzdoom

#26957 posted by ericw on 2016/01/15 22:45:38

I keep playing the first level of Valiant because the music is so good. :D
Wow, going to have to check this out

I like Prboom, because I'm a kernel-filtered software rendering bitch. Will try this one.

It was alright. Pretty average by modern standards, but does feel like a lot of classic Doom vibe stuffed into a single map.

I think I prefer the simplicity of the original e1m8 if you want to put them in the context of competing with each other... luckily we don't need to do that.

Now he needs to make a megawad!
