Yes honestly I think trying to run delta touch on a laptop will cause more issues than its worth. Also could be pretty slow as would be interpreting ARM code on your PC.

OK, thank you👍

Edit:  for anyone interested, I had terrible input lag on my PS4 controller via BT, I've switched to a USB otg connecter with an Hori PS4 wired mini pad and it plays beautifully.

I have tried it using all gzdoom versions and lzdoom and zandronum but that doesn't work either.

Present your case at the forums there (i know you have an account there).

Required:

• What others mods are loaded, if any.
• Which GZDoom version are you using.
• A screenshot showcasing the error.
• Your GZDoom ini file as an attachment.

I tried ages ago with no luck, it's an absolute mess of files, why is it so convoluted compared to other mods? Decided to try again yesterday when I saw this post, and ran into the same frustrations.  And I'm on mobile so everything takes longer, lol.

 

This mod needs a serious update for ease of use, it leans to heavily on the launcher.

 

Can we just re-sort the files and make it a pk3?

[HTiD]

Thanks guys for your help with renaming of doom2bfg.wad that sorted it out. Appricated 👍

Is there a trick to getting KDiZD working?

Just tried and it works on LZDooM and all GZDooM versions, even on v1.9.1...

Are you loading it with some other mod?

Sadly no, and it's the same on 2 devices. I downloaded from the official site too, it also loads in like this vvv

 

Edit: sorry, I'd just thought to check if the file was zipped and uh... It was🥴 got it running, thank you...

Hey, I enjoyed Delta Touch for playing mods and beating bots to death. But I am also annoyed by it. While walking and looking, I automatically walk backwards even if I wasn't touching my screen. Why's that? (Sorry, I don't speak English.)

Go to the Gamepad settings and un-check 'Enable Game Pad', some devices send random gamepad events when no gamepad is connected.

In the touch screen options select the 'Fixed Move' option

I'm trying to get different .sf2 soundfont files to load or be recognized. How can I set up my .ini file to allow me to switch between different soundfonts? And Do these only work under fluidsynth?

 

Edit: I figured it out by pasting this Path=./gzdoom_dev/soundfonts

 

in [soundfontsearch.directories] towards the top of gzdoom.ini. Depending on what engine your using I guess you would have to do the same for each .ini file.

You should be able to put any .sf2 into the load order, it defaults to the last position, I've had so much fun trying out different soundfonts and it's super easy in Delta Touch.

 

Be aware that I've encountered a bug where once a soundfont is loaded in GZDoom Dev it will stay as the default until you load another soundfont.

[Allanon41]

@CrbnBased

Thnk u for your response. I've further refined my path to ./audiopack/soundfonts and just created a soundfonts folder in audiopack folder. Just paste that path to any engine .ini file and it'll show up in game. Having alot of fun messing around with different soundfonts.

 

Now I'm just trying to figure out how to play flac packs. I just downloaded doom2_sc55_flac_v1.2 and trying to get it to play.

Edited March 12, 2020 by Allanon41

Update: Got the flac pack to work by dropping the zip file into mods and selecting it before booting into doom 2. Will play through zip so saves space

Cross posted from the doom video thread, relevant here as well:

 

 

Cross-platform NS deathmatch mapset titled Don't Be a Bitch Remake played on Zandronum through Delta Touch against 3 opponents on PC at the end of a long session held I believe 7/28/19 that had many players show up for some good frags. This video is of the last match of the night of me against Decay, Razgriz, and Darebear. This video does bear some important contextual information: first off Decay and Razgriz are longtime dm'ers and were certainly playing on PC; Darebear I'm unfamiliar with but I'm certain they were playing on PC as well, as they were not active in any mobile dooming channels at the time to my knowledge. That small detail out of the way, on to the more important caveat: this was at the end of a long, casual session so it's 100% unlikely that decay and raz were playing at full force (in fact you can see decay steal the victory at the end with 4+ quick kills of darebear when he finally decided to go for the win) while I hadn't been playing the whole time (was fresh; not tired) and tend to want to put on a good game against opponents I respect; especially-so when I know I'm handicapped (on touchscreen) and when it's the last match of the night. (gotta make it a good one!) So you have to look at this as me (handicapped yes, but more importantly) tryhard'ing against superior opponents who were casually ambling about, and to that degree this video is less impressive, also a lot of my frags were from Darebear eating rockets as well so there's that too. That all said I'm not going to take the stance that touchscreen could hold up in a more serious environment, such as a duel tournament where people are playing at 100% and you cannot use more meta elements of crowd control, but nonetheless I think this video also proves that the control scheme isn't as gimped as some may think and actually can work out really well for dm's and even duels to some degree. To that point I highly suggest all Doom fans look into getting Delta Touch because the touchscreen controls are actually quite fun to use (especially in deathmatch/duel) once you get used to them. One thing I need to eventually learn to use effectively (and in general) is the accelerometer; I still don't use it, but I'll get there one day! A weird observation is that I feel like I perform better with the touchscreen controls in duels/dm's than in sp. Maybe the different treatment of death is a factor, or possibly it may all come down to the differences between players (who can be "faked out" or can miss aiming against different player movements) and simple monster AI, or player health vs monster health, or something else. Maybe I'm just comparing them in a poor way, (as obviously rocketing a group of players will work out more times than it doesn't, regardless of control scheme used, but I'm referring more-so to overall matches, of which ssg use dominates) idk, but it's an interesting thing to note.

 

Let's go Delta Touch players, who's gonna be the first to get a respectable win against a respectable opponent first?

[Oh hell no]

touch controls stopped working after playing for a brief time. I can only walk and move the camera, all of the other buttons dont work. How do i fix this problem?

Can you play D4D on delta touch?

Yes, provided you are using the correct GZDoom version.

[Gokuma]

@Fonze, Holy crap, you're just using touch screen controls and not a mouse?   Personally I need a mouse to play at that pace and can't get get the hang of touchscreen that well.   Quite impressive!   Heh, love the intermission screen in that wad.  Actually looks a lot like my secret map37 (accessible from map07) in Entry-Hangar Plus which is a super fast-paced map, except there's no cyberdemon.

mmm, wonder if there is a bug report forum somewhere. The touch controls freezing problem may have been fixed loads of times already and im just being a dummy

You can either send @beloko a PM or an email to him.

[Gokuma]

@Fonze  I just tried out Don't Be a Bitch 3 and Don't Be a Bitch Remastered.  You said Remake and these have a different interpic.  Pretty awesome trippy deathmatch map sets showing what Zandronum can do, except Remastered has a bunch of unknown things appearing as exclamation marks.   Not sure what's going on.   Do you have another version available somewhere or are you using another wad in combination?

[Fonze]

Idr the differences between interpics; idr commenting on that as well. Perhaps this is a misunderstanding?

 

As for your main question, I'd have to look up the demo file name to see all the wads used; I remember that one did use a fair number tho, but for just playing the map set iirc you should only need eonweapons to fill in the "!'s" with their appropriate items.

The only downside is that Delta-Touch doesn't have internet doom explorer or any server browser for Zandronum. Quite a shame I tell you what, and the dev is too busy making one. However, he told me in discord that he's more than happy to accept and add anyone else's internet doom explorer if someone manages to port it exclusively for android and his delta-touch, might as well give credits to respectable users.

Zandronum has an in-game browser. A bit clunky, but better than nothing.

Does anyone know how to disable freelook when using a gamepad?
