Zulk RS Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Hey, I was looking to download GZDoom 2.8 (The same version Zandronum 3.0 uses) but I can't find it. A little help? Edited June 1, 2018 by Zulk RS 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Barry Burton Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Are you sure it's GZDoom? Anything I search up comes up with ZDoom 2.8 instead. Even the GZDoom binary archive does not contain that version. EDIT: Yeah, it's ZDoom 2.8pre-441-g458e1b1 / GZDoom 1.8.6, according to Torr. You can find GZDoom 1.8.6 in the archive I linked above here.

Zulk RS Posted June 1, 2018 No, I'm not 100% sure. I think it's 2.8 because when I fire up Zandronum 3.0 and go to the console, 2.8pre-something is written in the console. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Barry Burton Posted June 1, 2018 Just now, Zulk RS said: No, I'm not 100% sure. I think it's 2.8 because when I fire up Zandronum 3.0 and go to the console, 2.8pre-something is written in the console. I'm basing my info off of this. It's either ZDoom 2.8, or GZDoom 1.8.6. Regardless, both can be found easily on the Downloads page at ZDoom. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Zulk RS Posted June 1, 2018 Ah! So the 2.8 was for ZDoom and I mistook it for GZDoom. Thanks. Now I can find it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
drfrag Posted June 1, 2018 What for? That ancient GZDoom version is based on a ZDoom 2.7.1 devbuild while ZDoom LE 2.8.2a also has an old GL renderer compatible with GL 1.x cards. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Jerry.C Posted June 3, 2018 Have you filed a bug report for that old mod? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Zulk RS Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) No, because it was updated but... You know what it's a long story so I'll just put it in a spoiler. Spoiler I make Let's Plays of Doom wads/mods on YT. In a lot of my videos I talk about Prodoomer a lot. I thought I'd finally play the mod on the channel and just make a detailed rant on the mod. The version I talk about is V2. Prodoomer got updated to V3 which I assume runs on the latest GZDoom versions. The reason I'm purposely playing an older and worse version of a mod is because I believe that V2 is such a unique kind of bad mod that it needs to be seen. V3 fixed a major issue but judging by the fact that it starts off with a very frustrating boss-fight where, the whole mod will be glitched if you press something during the cutscene that will start playing upon winning the boss-fight, and that most of levels seem unchanged, I'd say it's not enough to make it good. It just lost it's unique kind of badness. Hence, I'm playing V2 which needs an older version of GZDoom to work. The series in question is: Edited June 3, 2018 by Zulk RS 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
