SoDOOManiac

I guess it runs Chocolate Doom source port? ;)

There are several reasons: 1) I followed the naming pattern of Chocolate Doom and Crispy Doom (So Doom being a fork of the latter); 2) it's short for 'So polished fork of Crispy Doom', 3) the icon, limited to square shape, was easier to design with So and Doom being on different lines. I incorporated what you meant by naming the additional options menu SoDOOMy.

Thanks a lot!

Is the spectre fuzz effect scaled with 4x and 8x resolution in Nugget Doom? I received a suggestion for So Doom that with 4x resolution the fuzz effect is too fine-grained, and the fuzz pixels should be at least doubled. I'd like to suggest this feature for Nugget Doom if it's not implemented or ask for permission to use it in So Doom if it's already a thing.

Thank you for holding on to this project for so long! I hope your mental health improves, mental issues are a real rock tied to the neck, especially when working on a long-term project like UD2. I'll be glad to try your work of art in Nugget Doom.

Nice that you're picking up some Crispy setting values that had been cut from Crispy the way I did in my Crispy fork, So Doom. In So Doom I restored Horizontal setting for weapon attack alignment (is it what you had mentioned?), 50% setting for player view/weapon bobbing, and also the following cut Crispy options: -weapon recoil pitch; -weapon recoil thrust (singleplayer, non-demo only); -squat weapon down on falling from heights (impact). The crispy option for colored blood has an expanded set of options in So Doom, and what I would especially love to see in Nugget Doom is the pixel aspect ratio option (0 for stretched pixels, non-widescreen framebuffer, useful for old 1280x1024 displays with aspect ratio less than 4:3; 1 for classical height/width=1.2 pixels like in Crispy, and 2 for square 1:1 pixels). There is a number of So Doom-exclusive (for the time being) features like force automapping secret sector lines the player had seen even if they have a nevermap flag, and Doom 2-only projectiles not to trigger special lines (singleplayer nondemo only). Feel free to make the Nugget So Spicy :)

So Doom 7.0.0 has been released on August 26, 2023. The main feature of this release is the enhanced 1280x800 framebuffer resolution, 4 times the original one by each dimension.

@Shepardus, thanks a lot! I'm going to release a new version of So Doom, my Crispy Doom fork, and wanted to inquire for how many WADs my port would be preferable (as it has less tinkering with settings than Boom family ports).

Hello fellow Doomers, I'd like to ask to point me to some limit-removing levelsets/megawads/large maps that are playable in Crispy Doom as intended, i.e. with no Boom features (with the exception of texture scroll right and SMMU swirling flats that Crispy supports). I know Parallels, Remnant and Infested Outpost, would like to try more.

@andrewj, @Gez, thank you for the explanations!

I see the arch-vile attack does damage twice: 20 damage points directly and 70 damage points radius damage from the fire position center, like explosion of the fire. Chocolate Doom code: void A_VileAttack (mobj_t* actor) { mobj_t* fire; int an; if (!actor->target) return; A_FaceTarget (actor); if (!P_CheckSight (actor, actor->target) ) return; S_StartSound (actor, sfx_barexp); P_DamageMobj (actor->target, actor, actor, 20); actor->target->momz = 1000*FRACUNIT/actor->target->info->mass; an = actor->angle >> ANGLETOFINESHIFT; fire = actor->tracer; if (!fire) return; // move the fire between the vile and the player fire->x = actor->target->x - FixedMul (24*FRACUNIT, finecosine[an]); fire->y = actor->target->y - FixedMul (24*FRACUNIT, finesine[an]); P_RadiusAttack (fire, actor, 70 ); } But in the unchanged DeHackEd data the Arch-Vile attack damage is 0 (unlike Imp fireball having 3 base damage, Caco fireball having 5...) Where is that DeHackEd value from Arch-Vile damage applied?

I may be not the first one to ask this question, please excuse me if it's so. Is your nickname a German translation for Arch-vile?

I'm keen on making minor fixes for WADs and mods because minor flaws bug me so much. I made fixes for fists in Strain and REKKR (the latter made it to Steam version of the game), fixed up Batman Doom to play in Crispy Doom sourceport, as in Crispy it looks like authors intended but plays better, re-released ROOM with edits making a difference in my source port So Doom (that is a perfectionist's fork of Crispy Doom), and made a patch for Overthinked Doom 3. P.S. Recalled this fix for hand shine of Hell Barons/Knights and their blood in dying animations.

I re-released Room with berserk pack applied to the face punch (due to a special feature in my source port So Doom 6.0.1 that I recommend to play Room with) and small map changes to make it work. Berserk pack punch is now a self-instagib dealing 1000 damage. https://www.moddb.com/mods/room/downloads/room-berserk-edition
