Hello moblie doomers

Hello guys so I'm new here. Is there any moblie doomers here if yes let's talk about the worst and the best things about playing doom wads in phone 

• Freedoom (android)
• Delta touch (I will buy it)

delta touch is genuinely one of the most convenient ways to play doom and i wish the frontend was ported to pc so i could play on my steam deck, aside from that the dev is a chad

Yeah but the freedoom moblie app is also fine for running zdoom compatible wads and mods but yes the only problem is no multiplayer support cuz gzdoom and the gzdoom file in the app in also quite old so new mods would not work and also forget about total conversions because they ain't gonna work

But yes it can run iwads. Just after downloading that iwads paste it from the download folder in the freedoom/config folder and you can play it without freedoom textures. It can also run old games which were made in the doom engine life strife and heretic (I played the entirety to strife in it)

Lonespacemarine,

I replied to your other post so no need to repeat it here. Delta touch worth every dime, even the non updated Freedoom is still worth the time and effort. So far both surviving not being buried or removed by Google from pressure by Bethesda. Only time will tell if mobile dooming can get even better.

I agree, i brought it 

Freedoom would be a good app if the gzdoom wasn't stuck in gzdoom 2.1.1

I once emailed him, he said he just can't update the app somehow. Well the app would be find if it had like the latest version gzdoom and a few old versions, along with a gzdoom version switch 

Well, the failure to update the Freedoom app would be Google's decision. Why? Who knows what "technical" excuse was given, I'm sure with some leaning on by Bethesda and having their own ports buried on the play store had a lot to do with it. I guess if folks weren't happy enough with their ports, just hide them away and try to make sure no one else can make an alternative. 🙄

How do you manage to constantly misspell Mobile?

Freedoom not great as pc gzdoom port because some mods don't work like MyHouse.wad

I have to deal with the iOS port. No wads for me. Just the main game and some add-ons. That’s it. That’s the life I live.

That port is garbage in general, not just the Mobile version, but it doesn't even support the Boom format.

To make a wad work there you have to put all the IWAD of the wad you want into the PWAD and change the name to "doom" and replace it with the existing one

That sucks, but it is what it is

Try to hack Delta touch, I don't recommend playing doom on a cell phone.

Delta touch has Woof?

I've been playing Doom on an android based handheld retro emulator and the Freedoom app is excellent once you map the controls to physical buttons.
