How to run DOOM 1 with enhanced vanilla mods but in full 3D (fully three dimensional)?


Recommended Posts

I want to play The Ultimate DOOM in full 3D (fully three dimensional).

 

I understand that the mod Voxel allow it.

 

But what if I also want to "enhance" the vanilla a bit by running one of these?

 

  • Smooth DOOM
  • Beautiful DOOM
  • EVP - Enhanced Vanilla Project
  • Another similar vanilla-oriented mod

 

How to run DOOM 1 with enhanced vanilla mods but in full 3D (fully three dimensional)?

Mods like Smooth Doom define extra frames of animation for the weapons and monsters, and provide the sprites for those frames. Voxel Doom provides 3D models for the monsters. But if you run them together you're not going to get smoothly animated 3D models. There's no magic that converts Smooth Doom's extra graphics to models or adds extra frames to Voxel Doom. Likely one will just overwrite the changes of the other. That said, you might still be able to see some benefit because IIRC Voxel Doom doesn't touch the player weapons while Smooth Doom does.

So, you want to have the weapons from the enhanced mods but with 3D models for enemies and other objects? Then you should load a version of these mods that only include the weapons with the 3D pack of your choice, as long as it doesn't have weapon models it will work.

And for some weird reason Cheello is now working on weapon voxels for the next release, they look weird and don't suit the aesthetics at all, I think he's only doing it because people kept asking for it on Twitter and Youtube.

Metal_Slayer, yes, exactly, I basically seek just enhanced vanilla weapon mod that won't effect anything else in Voxel (or any other 3D enemies mod).

 

If anyone has and recommendation for such a "weapon only mod", it is welcome.

Metal_Slayer I don't know where to even start searching such weapon-only versions of any of the three mods above.

 

I have no knowledge in any native application programming (I just know a bit of JavaScript for web applications) so I don't know how to "cut" everything off from any of these mods and just stay with the weapon stuff...

This a project of mine I once had released, but have since replaced with a different mod. Its called Pretty Doom 3D and its a mixture of my own personal Code Zleek Doom mod, Voxel Doom and 3D models from Doomsday, and a personalized texture pack of Lw30s DHTP low res and converted by me into Doom Lump texture format. Requires GZDoom 3.8 on up or LZDoom because of the enhanced fireball/plasma code involved ported and enhanced from Brutal FreeDoom GZD.

Please Note that the Archvile revives do not work properly because my gore code broke that( extreme deaths and fire deaths added), but everything else is designed to be 1 to 1 timing for Monster attack speeds, walk speeds, and weapon fire speeds regardless of what the animations make it look like (MATH!!!).
 

This may or may not tickle the 3D itch but I compiled this purely for the same type of gaming experience that you seem to want. Its only 26 MB in size.
