I tried seeing if the co-op/Dm mode worked with the PS1 link cable but it seems like it didnt work. Has anyone else tried that?

It should work, but from what I've heard, it was fairly fickle even on the original game.

 

Goes without saying, but you need two TVs, two PlayStations, and two copies of the GEC Master Edition to do it. And obviously that means needing a way to load burnt discs or ISOs.

Regarding Doom and final doom, both played very well via system link. I beat both on co-op with my brother years ago. I have all those things needed, including two burned copies of Master edition, two ps1s (both scph-7750) with TonyHax memory cards too. When i set it all up and select coop on both systems, it just sits there. On doom and final doom, it usually connects within 5-7 seconds.

It very well could be something wrong then. I'm not sure how much testing of that GEC has done - I do think they have real hardware of some sort though.

 

That'd be a question for them to answer in any sort of detail.

Maybe it is something with your hardware, because I has been one of the first, who tested multiplayer modes on hardware and it works well, as the original PSX Doom/Final (even I used non-original link cable). I finished all levels in coop mode and played DM mode also (used chipped japanese SCPH-7000 and SCPH-7500). The few miscellaneous problems is the rumble feedback - player 1 has rumble from player 2 and also the opposite (GEC added this and already trying to fix that I think). And also when player 1 used the switch, player 2 can hear the click from opposite part of level for example, I already posted about this.

I was just looking to make a PSX addon for my Masterpack project, and the big music list is already here. This is gonna help a ton in the music selection.

Mostly done, but on hiatus for the remaining few things as GEC has turned their attention to other projects.

 

That said, the latest beta still has in excess of 100 maps.

Hi,

 

I have some questions, because I'm quite confused. 

 

1. What is map order in this package?

 

2. There are billions of wads to classic DOOM, but are there some for PSX DOOM? Where to search and how to play them (PSX OOM TC or via this?

 

3. Is there any way to play vanilla-friendly wads with PSX sounds, music and graphics? With this darker mood?

 

Thanks

1) Answered right'chere!

 

2) There are a few small maps that run on actual PSX Doom, but it requires using GEC's tools to burn a level to an ISO and running the ISO. I know PsyDoom does support custom levels though, and that is generally a much friendlier (and more performant) way to play PSX Doom, including this project. I don't know of any custom levels specifically in mind, but I sure if you look, you may find a few!

 

3) That's just a simple sound and texture replacement, pretty much. I don't know of any offhand, but those sorts of things have been around for years. It won't fully reflect the PSX atmosphere in some ways, though - colored lighting requires you to edit the map, for example, and the mapper may not have paid attention to (or indeed, even known about) memory limits that would need to be addressed on the real PSX.
