The Official 'Trying to Find a Specific WAD' Thread


Recommended Posts

Awesome!

If you dont mind my pestering, only k11.wad is probably the last loose end regarding mork (at least, the last one I know that has a filename). I think I posted this last time but couldn't find it in your very helpful archive that you posted, so I assumed it was lost. However, I also assumed that with those infggg levels, so here's hoping for one last shot. Mega thanks for your work again.

In this archive, posted by Ribbiks, there is k1.wad. I think this is renamed k11.wad (or its previous version).

Got another wad to look for:

 

I think it's 12 or so maps. GZDoom. The first map starts in a marble area with cacodemon on the wall texture. Map 11 is really hellish - lava like. Map 12 or so is the boss and it is a baron like creature. I'm pretty sure this mapset has scripting.

 

The music of map11 is whispering like. I also know this was released before 2010.

Does anyone have the cut map from Swift Death? It was called 'Redhouse Effect' and reading all the hate for it on onemandoom and other places makes me wonder if its still around for people to try

Beta 2 was the last version with that map (Map12).

Thanks again! I imagine I wont be too thankful after actually experiencing it, going by the many many negative comments about it, but it beats having something lost to time :p

 

EDIT: Also related to Swift Death, in the forum thread for it, there is a link to a 'remastered MAP01' that is down. Anyone still got a copy of that? Linkrot strikes again D:

Not trying to find a specific wad but trying to find the name of a specific shovelware cd.  All the maps were doom 1 ones converted to doom 2.  I have no idea whether this was common practice at the time.  I believe at least some of them on this release were not on idgames.  One idgames wad it did have got to a point where a wav played "Welcome to the arena!  Tonights' event...".  If the shovelware cd isn't identifiable I'd sure like that one wad to be.

@Doomlover77 Thanks, that bought back memories!  I remember in '98, downloading idgames and having to pay a guy with a cd burner to burn it.  How did it fit on a cd?  Because I didn't understand what ports were and therefore didn't download that directory.  He also tried to sell me an awe32 for $100.  And don't get me started about the first time I heard an mp3, having only known midis to exist...

Does anyone still have Joe Anderson's 'scrubbed from the internet' wad collection on hand?

 

This post has a list of his work, and some of the links in that thread are dead now.

 

I am missing 3dbox.wad, castle.wad, cstlezd.wad, orbital1.wad, ruinsqc5.wad and sanityv1.wad, all the rest are in my library

I'm trying to find 8pack by the author of the two Real World WADs. It was taken out of idgames because it was replaced by Real World, but I am not able to find the original wad anywhere.

8pack.zip

Judging from the location of the file on my backup disk, it seems Searcher did email it to me.

At some point during the development of The Master Levels, Romero considered including these WADs. I think I've found everything there besides 

jsf02ai!.wad

jsf03x.wad

jsf05k.wad

These wads have a similar name scheme as "jsf01.wad" by Joe Fouch but if these missing wads are by Joe, I can't find any of his other releases anywhere.

In the README for jsf01, Joe says that it was the first level he uploaded and that happened 2/10/95. I assume the missing wads were subsequent maps made by him in a series of sort. These missing maps must have been uploaded between February and December (release of master levels) 1995.

These must have been for Doom 2 and they likely only had 1 or 2 levels in each wad.
