New Doom Episodes on Rockdoom?
« on: January 17, 2007, 07:20:57 AM »
 I just beat rockdoom on my ipod Video, and It was kinda short. I went to select the next episode (Shores of hell), and nothing happened. I tried the PC Version of Doom I had, and it said I needed to get the ful trilogy first.

Before I start buying stuff, can someone tell me if there's a way (By downloading WADs or somthing) to get the other 2 episodes in rockdoom. (The Shores of Hell and Inferno. The First one, Knee Deep in the Dead, is the only one in Rockdoom)
can Anyone give some advice?

You'll need to purchase the full version of doom - since the wad you've just played through is only the shareware version.

...So I take the wad from the full version, delete the wad I was using for rockdoom, and replace it with the full version's wad?

How do I get ZDoom on Rockbox?
« Reply #4 on: January 20, 2007, 06:49:00 PM »
Alright, I have some addons I want on DOOM, but they don't work, So I was thinking it'll be a good idea to get zDoom(version of Doom that uses addon wads)  on rockbox. does anyone know if zDoom is compatible with Rockbox?

zDoom is a source port. You'd have to port all the changes made to zDoom to the Rockbox doom engine.

I sent an email to the makers of zDoom about porting zdoom to rockbox. A patch might actually be made somtime. I'll see what I can do ;D

Try some addon WAD's with doom2.wad. It's definately a great buy because you can play TONS of different WAD's and maps.

Go find Demon Gate. It's a collection of 666 wad files, and it'll probably make your addons folder really bloated, but it's worth it. I've not tried putting Demon Gate in, though, so I'm not positive it'll work.

 :-\...I dunno. A little bit of both? my plan was to hunt down the stuff I need, and then stick it in my ipod and see if it works; and if it doesn't, I'll improvise

That sounds cool. I'll get that. btw... How do I use addons. I have a Doom 64 wad (it's a mod that makes doom look and play like the N64 game). However, it doesn't work. One of the lines of text states that Doom Shareware cant run extra Wads (or somthing like that). I'm guessing addons only work with the full version, yeah?

Actually, in my experience, addons like that don't even mix well with the full version of Doom. I have Ultimate Doom, with the extra episode, though. It may be because of the extra switch in UDoom's E1M1... But this isn't the place for theorizing.

For me, addons have usually worked best with Doom 2. This includes Demon Gate. There are some wads that play with the hud and the music and the like, and they'll work with Doom 1, but most of them change the first level of Doom 2.

That said, you'll want to select your game as Doom 2, and then load your addon.
