Isn't it dead? Or has it been revived yet again? It was certainly dead back in October when I was trying to play a co-op game with my wife. Couldn't get the blasted thing to connect at all. I have fond memories of it from yonks ago though, lol, the last time I used this thing was in 2003.

It's dead, Jim.

The best alternative these days is probably Doomseeker

It isn't dead, as you can see above in the screenshot, i'm in without any troubles , someone is remaking or something .

[Doomkid]

Wow, it really is back, and it's a proper version no less!

I honestly can't help but wonder why the people responsible haven't made a thread here. Would be nice to see Zdaemon, Odamex and custom engine support.

Yeah, it only supports Zandronum actually, i'm betting this is an early release .

[ReFracture]

Seems to be based on DC3, I wonder how much work has gone into updating it.. nostalgic but I don't know if it will ever garner a meaningful userbase again or not. Zorcher called it quits when it went un-used for the most part.

UI still kind of sucks when rooms and servers aren't separate tabs.

I Still prefer IDE for now, it supports more engines, refresh servers list faster, and allows me to connect to every IRC Channel with ease .

[Doomkid]

More engine support, extended IRC support and server/rooms being different tabs = how to make thing thing really shine!

[ReFracture]

Vindict6 is working on expanding the number of engines.

As much as I enjoyed using STO\PC\DC it's a lost cause without considerable promotion and interest from the community.

[Doomkid]

Agreed - If this isn't whored around to every Doom forum with a clear list of goals (stuff like more port support) that's going to be self sabotage. I'm pretty shocked I had to hear about it by chance through the grapevine rather than a clear thread by the creators. DC admins, we'd love you to speak up!

[Doomkid]

Borrowing some graphics from IDE, I've made a suggestions thread at the DC forums with some mock-up screenshots of ideas that I think could greatly benefit the success of Doom Connector. I think this is essentially the right way to go about it.

what kind of website is this that demands that I allow cookies (in the browser) to view it?

GASP!!!

Doom Connector keeps wanting to uninstall Microsoft Viso each time I start the application, could this please be fixed?

[duh]

Because I allowed the browser to. This site does not redirect you to a Google page asking you to enable cookies either.

It is not because I allow cookies in this site that I should do the same, for viewing purposes alone, this is ridiculous.

Cookies are delicious delicacies :P
