    What I want to see is a map that's vanilla compatible, then the next map is identical to the last one, only it goes "Hey here are some boom features". Then the last map is again identical but uses zdoom features. Something like a low/medium/high quality demo, but as a wad. We have heaps of examples of features in ports, but have to compare arbitrarily. As a non-mapper a lot the architecture in boom wads looks like it could be done in vanilla. I'm after something more obvious.

    What are some good boom/mbf21 wads to give a low-end machine a workout?  So far I've tried auger zenith, dotw and headless chicken.  AZ works well, dotw is a slideshow (As suspected) and headless chicken runs well, but it hates the serious sam exploding sarges (Which is the case on most low-end hardware)

     

    Running a netbook with atom n450 and intel gma 950.  It's the weakest cpu you can have with an ogl 1.x igpu.  Desktop system with opengl 1.x igpu = any cpu I try is not low end, desktop system with opengl 1.x video card = not supporting 7 and having to muck around with older boom ports that most boom wads don't support now.  Using desktop gpu means boom ports aren't being forced to use opengl 1.x

    From the AMC tc, and intermission in Compendium. By Alexandr Zhelanov but just called untitled. D_DM2INT.rar

    I was sure that we had a "i.d this midi" thread but it seems not. I'm trying to find something from the amc tc, which is used in compendium. By Alexandr Zhelanov and it's just called untitled. D_DM2INT.rar

    TNT Overcharged, but not sure if it'll get finished in time.

    Don't laugh, but the switch below the stairs in e1m1 opens the outdoor area, not just the off-colored wall after the slime pit.

    @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...

    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.

    I'm trying to find doom tournament, it seems to add ut weapons but not sure if it has maps too. The links seem to have been up as recently as 2022.

    Doomrpg and rla pretty much make the content of a megawad new again. I guess technically anything adding different gameplay style, new monsters...

    Glad to hear it, I gobble up anything that remakes my favourite tnt levels.

    We have puzzle maps. But what about teaching things concepts such as "for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction" and cause and effect, in an attractive and non-intellectual map? Learning things by doing within the physics limitations of the engine. I didn't do well at science and I'd love some non-monster gameplay that got into physics lessons.

    I love these levels, especially pharaoh. There was a community project that was going to be 32 maps of go2it variations, only it died. I'm aware of tnt/plutonia the way we remember it, as well as wads like revilution and plutonia 2.

    I keep getting the two confused, it probably doesn't surprise you that I also pm'd the wrong author asking for a copy, too. Thanks! You're a lifesaver. 🛟

    I'm trying to find a recent version of tnt overdrive. There's a 2021 edition on idgames, there's a 2024 edition on here... but both links are to a wad with 1000 empty markers, no levels or anything. The author appears to have lost it after putting a lot of effort into a full megawad. There were 2023 releases, but the links all go to the "broken" wad. The working one must have been deleted and updated with the faulty one in the same google drive folder.
