DOOM uses MUS format for its music, similar to MIDI but cut-down slightly for the slow CPU's of the time.

As the Amiga doesn't have any MIDI (or MUS) HW.......it has to use the CPU which has an obvious effect on game speed.

I realise that but obviously samples must be used to replace the instruments on the MIDI hardware.

wXR · 23 June 2011, 13:49

Has anyone done calculations to see how much the music affects the speed? If I were to 'port' the MIDI to ProTracker/4 channels would it help? Could we get a player in there?

apex · 23 June 2011, 14:15

Is ADomm now supporting the -deh file feature?
This is needed to load all the Wolfendoom Episodes.

_ThEcRoW · 23 June 2011, 15:12

Is music available on classic amigas?. Always i ran doom on my a1200, it came without music.

mfilos · 23 June 2011, 15:41

Ye music is available.
You just need to download the archive and extract it on you Doom installation folder
http://aminet.net/package/game/shoot/ADoom_Instr

Then you just alter the Tooltype and enable music and you're set

Oh and it needs the doommusic.library in the Doom installation folder as well

Yes. I haven't tried those Wolfendoom eps, but my own deh files have always worked fine. According to the readme file not all dehacked features will do, though.

The Amiga Doom's MIDI player (actually a MUS player) is very fast (all hand-coded assembler) so I doubt you'd be able to make it run much faster by changing it to a MOD player.

Doom already runs a pretty much full speed on an 040/060. To get it running faster on an 030 it would be better to do a few little tweaks to it's rendering code.

Might be worth trying doomattack to investigate any speed difference between midi and mod playback (doomsound.lib vs ThePlayer61A)

Where are the drivers to get 2 screens with 2 Indivision ECS ??

Supporting this levels and -deh files would be more than fantastic!

I am looking since 11 years for support!

I'm looking for some video drivers to get one workbench on two monitors with two Indivision ECS !!

Is there any possibilty to make it work with the graffiti-card from Jens? The Indivision shares its heritage from the graffiti.

NovaCoder · 11 July 2011, 09:56

ADoom already does support Graffiti but apparently it's very slow.

I plan to update to support the IndivisionAGA Mrk2 if I can get it running fast enough.

Judging from your name I guess that you know more about this than I...
There used to be a site dedicated to WolfenDoom on the Amiga. I sent the files I downloaded from that site to Wolfensteingoodies and they are now available here:

http://www.wolfensteingoodies.com/do...olfenDoomAmiga

I think Operation: Rheingold Episode 2 was not available on the Amiga site???

DoomAttack has better DEH support than ADoom. There is a comparison of the two here:

A long time ago I made the AmiWolfendoom Page.

But hosting such a site in germany can be a problem nowadays. But I still have a backup somewhere.

Available yes, but not working. I have to check the backupfiles. If you want them...?
Problem was the DEH support.

Quote:

But DoomAttack was suffering from other problems?!? No Wolfendoom in 1024x768 on PPC.

Nice!

I just visited your site.
If a ADoom with full DEH support will maybe ever released, I can reactivate the page.

NovaCoder · 26 July 2011, 02:09

I'll let you know if I've finished my BOOM port then

Quote:

-deh <dehfile[.DEH or .BEX]> The -deh parameter allows you to specify a DEHACKED patch to change default engine behavior. You can specify a .DEH file, which is backward compatible to DEHACKED v3.1 format (patch format 6) outside text changes, or a .BEX file which allows BOOM extensions to DEHACKED. See DEH support in BOOM below for more detail. Note the -deh option is new to BOOM, it did not exist in DOOM.

Ah, PPC, of course! Should have realised since all your startup scripts use ADoomPPC, and yes, DoomAttack doesn't support DEH fully either.

Not my site, I just supplied them with your files...
