Doom Wad Station Updates
21:35 PST | cyric | Print News | Mail News
There are a few happenings in the DOOM universe happening over at the DOOM Wad Station. Here's a quick run down of what they have hopping over there:
  • BLOOD Total Conversion:
    A group is creating the BLOOD tc and have a new download which was created using ZDOOM to give it more of closer resemblance in gameplay to the original BLOOD game. It is 17 levels (1-16 and 31).

  • Kartak Temple Review:
    A new review was posted of a map which is designed to recreate ancient egypt. How did it fair against the numerous other DOOM MAps? Read the review and find out!

  • Doom Reborn Project:
    This release is Alpha 0.35 and is the first release for the group. It is hefty at 148 megabytes but well worth the time to download. Snag it from their website or get it from this second mirror.

More iD Games Coming to XBLA?
9:19 PST | cyric | Print News | Mail News
With the recent success of DOOM on Xbox Live arcade, it would make sense that id and Microsoft would look to releasing more classic id games. The Firing Squad had a chance to ask Todd Hollenshead of id Software about it and here's what he had to say:
"We're looking at bringing some of the other games to XLA, but a lot is going to depend on the response to DOOM. From what MS tells us, its [sic] been fantastic so far, which bodes well for other id "classics" to be released there. But there's nothing concrete," he said. "Making the surprise announcement at X06 for DOOM worked out great, so I'll be tight lipped about anything specific for now :)"
Well given that DOOM is number 1 on XBox Live Arcade, I'm thinking we will be seeing more id titles soon enough.

1Up DOOM XBLA Review
7:48 PST | cyric | Print News | Mail News
The fellers over at 1Up.com have put their thoughts of the recently released DOOM for Xbox Live Arcade down on paper and don't seem to impressed with it. What didn't they like about it? Well the fact that they found it laggy during the multiplayer was enough to demolish any decent rating for the game even though they cited it as "not a terrible port of the game. As a matter of fact, the single-player game is excellent." Excellent enough for the big 5 out of 10 they rated it. You can read the full review here.

For all you old school DOOMers out there, there is a new version of ZDOOM available. This latest release fixes plenty of things and well as adds more than a few changes. This brings the current version up to 2.1.6. Here's a quick list of changes:
  • Scaled 2D images are supported
  • Dehacked max health usage defaults to consistancy with other (BOOM) ports.
  • A font parameter was added to A_Print.
  • Quoted strings in DECORATE can no longer span multiple lines without using the escape character (\) at the end of each line.
  • A new writeini console command can be used to save the ini at any time, with any file name.
  • If the ini is write-protected when you quit, an error dialog now opens to let you know your settings could not be saved and gives you the opportunity to unprotect it.
  • Multiple stat displays can be enabled at once.
You can grab the newest version here at ZDOOM.org as well as check out the rest of the changes and fixes!
