Anyway, I hope I will be able to have a go at this PrBoom+ thing soon <g>
Hey, it only took me over two years to sit and try for real =:-|
This looks extremely good, so much so better than ID's originals. Sure an important part of the 'old times' magic of playing Doom is pixelated stuff, but I have to admit that straight line aliasing never looks good, and any resolution of at least 640x480 makes it go away mercifully. However, when it comes to speed the story is quite different, so I guess I can play with settings and such (sounds stutter which I take as a sign of improper setup), assuming this is not abandoned already. Jochen?
Anyway, although I was happier putting Doom 1/2 WADs in the game directory, I managed to play along with the rpm ways of the refresh, but I hit a wall: with the Doom or Doom ][ WADs into place I can play either game, but with both files in place, PrBoom+ always starts in Doom ][ mode. Moreover, the launcher does nothing for me (all fields are blank), and I find it rather intuitive that I have to close its window (double click on the window system menu) to launch the game, while dismissing it with any of the buttons makes it exit silently. Or may I be doing something wrong?
