New ZDOOM port to Amiga 68k - Page 10

pipper · 08 October 2020, 09:08

What machine is this running on, Vampire?

I just did a little update on my old ZDOOM port to include some endian fixes and also some fixes to how it was playing sounds. I've also enhanced it so that it can now run more mods including the excellent Back to Saturn

Thanks Nova

Guess I need to upgrade "Doom" and "Doom II - Hell on Earth" then

Edit: where can I find the new version? It doesn't seem to be on Aminet as yet...

No worries mate, should be on Aminet very soon.

Yes Back to Saturn requires the DOOM 2 wad, I've included the Back to Saturn files in the Aminet archive.

Works great. Any way to get it to play the default demos when it loads?

DamienD · 07 March 2021, 20:47

Hi Nova,

I just finished updating both my "Doom RTG" and "Doom II - Hell on Earth RTG" .HDFs with the latest "ZDoom 1.22.10".

Unfortunately though, I get a "Halt" when launching:

Same config / settings as previous... any ideas what would cause this?

DamienD · 07 March 2021, 21:25

Ok figured it out

This new version needs more RAM; changed from 64MB --> 128MB Z3Fast and all good.

Maybe try playing with this Tool Type:

pipper · 08 March 2021, 00:48

„FORCEDEMO“ might also work. It’ll make doom load demos even if it thinks they might be incompatible.

mrv2k · 08 March 2021, 01:37

It comes up "Doom v1.9 demos are no longer supported" in the ERROR.TXT file then goes back to the desktop. I'm not really that worried I recorded my own and now it works fine.

mrv2k · 08 March 2021, 02:03

I made some nice icons if anyone is interested. Needs AGA/RTG and a pretty high res workbench.

Yep this version of ZDOOM has the demos disabled for some reason, if you really need the demos try my ODAMEX port

That's strange, I'll have to check that out, thanks for letting me know.

Update: Okay I think I've fixed it, AGA version in the Zone for testing that should run with as little as 32 MB FASTRAM

Ok thanks, were you able fix the memory requirements on the RTG version also?

It's no big deal for me though as I only emulate.

Does the AGA version in the zone work okay now?

I can easily apply the same update to the RTG version

I haven't tried as I only use the RTG version...

No problem to test though, I'll quickly setup now and get back to you

Yes, the AGA version now works with only 32MB of Fast RAM:
