chungy Posted April 4, 2020 The aforementioned "-skipvideos" parameter didn't work for me. I worked around it by overwriting the video files (in the movies directory) with a little dummy video. Just extract this and replace all the files in that directory. empty movies.zip 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

betabox Posted April 5, 2020 Spoiler In Lost Levels map 2, after the ambush surrounding the red key, I didn't pick up the key because I wanted to go back to the previous areas to stock up in case of another ambush. However, there's no way to go back to the red key now? Just past the yellow key door, the opening is completely walled off atop the stairs, leaving the red key area inaccessible and blocking my progress. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

Pls halp (turning is not bound to arrows anymore) They are still bound to arrows (the briliance of the keybinding in that port), you have to unbind the arrow keys from the turn left and right. I did it by going to C:\Users\<username>\Saved Games\Nightdive Studios\DOOM 64 and open the kexengine.cfg with notepad++ and deleted the bindings 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

intacowetrust Posted April 5, 2020 On 4/2/2020 at 6:31 AM, Average said: I'm not sure if these are bugs in the port or just being authentic to the original but I feel like I get stuck on geometry quite often. I don't have an N64 anymore so I can't go back and check but I don't remember being quite this 'sticky'. So I'm just after noticing an odd bug in PsyDoom and it reminded me of this comment. I mention it since the N64 version is derived from the PS1 port, so presumably carried over a few of it's quirks. I have a quick 60 FPS hack in PsyDoom at the minute that allows me run the game beyond its previous 30 FPS cap - albeit currently with some issues. Tonight, when testing Doom II's 'Entryway' map running at 60 FPS I found myself getting stuck trying to go back through this door from the outside area: When I drop the game back down to its regular 30 FPS cap I can get through the door and past this column just fine. It seems as though some of the sliding behavior in this game might depend on the frame rate that the game is running at. Walls seem to be definitely more 'sticky' when the game is running at higher FPS. I don't know if that specifically is a problem for D64 on PC (due to increased performance) and the game is meant to be demo compatible with the original, so perhaps not. Just thought I'd mention anyway in case it rings a bell for some of the devs. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

Gez Posted April 5, 2020 If you rebind a command to its already-bound key, it unbinds it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

betabox Posted April 6, 2020 Found another error in Evil Sacrifice. From the underground area at the bottom of the stairs at the start, when you're getting back out of there, you need to ride a lift, that rises and lowers fast, back to the stairs. If you walk onto the lift to trigger it to rise, then quickly get off it, its front side is missing a texture and has the default "I suck at making maps" on it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
ZeroTheEro Posted April 13, 2020 I found a bug that prevents you from getting 100% items in MAP 30: The Lair. One of the health bonuses in the row to the left here can't be picked up. Tested in D64EX and it can be picked up, but not in the N64. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

One of the health bonuses in the row to the left here can't be picked up. Tested in D64EX and it can be picked up, but not in the N64. This is an original N64 issue. Remember D64EX was missing some of the original collision, its differences have no relation to the current port and can't be used as a point of comparison, you must use N64 hardware for that. For reference there's a way to get it from the plasma rifle secret, kinda awkward but it's possible. Edit: Actually it turns out how to get it is itself a secret. You can lower the shelf, once it is all of them can be gotten. Edited April 14, 2020 by Edward850 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
Dragonsbrethren Posted April 14, 2020 I was playing the Xbox One version and noticed a momentary stutter any time a new sound effect was played. I had this happen my first time firing a rocket after loading a save game, the first time I saw an Arachnotron, probably other cases that I don’t remember. It was really jarring at the time, but as I said the stutter only happened the first time those sound played. Sorry I can’t provide a more useful bug report. I’ll try to remember to record a capture the next time I encounter this. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
stinkfist Posted April 21, 2020 On 3/31/2020 at 1:47 PM, MadGuy said: Another Issue is with the mouse wheel if you scroll it down it will reach the fists and the chainsaw and if you keep scrolling it will switch between those two, also if you scroll up it will reach the last weapon slot and it will stop here. That’s how the controls worked in the n64 version too. You could scroll up or down your weapons. Going backwards gets you to your fists/chainsaw and cycles through just those two. Doesn’t do that for bfg and unmaker idk why. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Don't get me wrong but this sounds like bad weapon switching design all together and at the very least it should be updated to how it works in modern FPS titles. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Well considering the n64 controller doesn’t have keys 1-9 they went with a kind weapons cycle. Why we can bounce around from fist to chainsaw and nothing else? The world may never know lol 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Vala Posted May 1, 2020 Not sure if this is an issue or something I'm doing wrong, but clearing platform gaps on the switch seems to be touch and go. With run on and the joystick full forward (or dpad bound to directions), sometimes the distance will get cleared, sometimes not. Spoiler The demon key area in outpost omega for example. Getting the armor in particular took me dozens of tries, both with joystick and using dpad up bound. Meanwhile in a video of someone playing on n64 they just saunter over easily (around 32:35 in below link). I ended up having to turn at 45 degrees to get over some gaps reliably. Also have issues crossing in alpha quadrant in the room with the center piece that rises up. Works maybe 50/50 for me. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
