Very impresive, for such a short period of time. :)  I've checked out
the other ports that I could find, and yours is definitely the best so
far.  Now, if you could just get the speed up a bit...

I download you version of Doom yesterday and think that it's great. I
have been trying to setup AmiDoom but have trouble with getting the
sound to work properly, small screen corruption and the game freezing
when you select a menu option.

Your version doesn't display any of these problems, sound works
without the need for AHI. The graphics look as they should on a
320x240x256 CGFX screen and it play very smoothly indeed.

Well done for a good game port and thank you.

I have tested ADOOM with the sharware wad.I have an A1200 with

with some Optimation for AGA and 020+, it would be even better. So i
wish to thank you for bringing us this great game.

   Thank you so much for ADoom.  I would like to buy the
 Amiga Port when Networking support is finished.  I used it
 on a low-res CyberGraphX screen, and it plays without a
 problem.  I like it better than the one at www.pluk.com
 because yours has sound support, and did not crash.

This letter concerns Adoom. Firstly id like to tell you what you've
done. You have brought the very finest the gaming world has to offer
to Amiga, you have given us a PERFECT conversion of Doom, except this
is better, it can Multitask. Whats more is that this early beta
version runs like it is on a bloody p200, on my 060/50. yes it runs
like a bloody dream! Its fast, Its Smooth and its down right
impressive. To be honest I didnt think even an 060 was capable of
this. But this has re-wrote the book on how good the Amiga is.  With
my 060 and AGA I can play this game which i thought was impossible.
Yes for years Ive thought that games such as gloom are better, and
indeed i still think that Gloom is unbeatable, but doom is pushing it
very close.

Pete, you're a god! ;)..

hello and thanks for your work on the doom src. as for aga compatibility,
it works fine on a4k 040/40 and there are no trouble when exiting the
game. default adoom res is dblntsc lowres on my system and gfx speed is very
fine. i just copied the wad from the macdoom demo i had on my shapeshifter
partition. it complains about wrong version of the builtin demo but
otherwise works fine for playing.

ADoom is bloody brilliant! It runs quite smooth at almost full screen on my
AGA A4000/040 25MHz! I run NewWPA8 which may have something to do with the
great speed but doesn't the latest SetPatch do the same thing?? You say there
is not much Amiga specific code yet. Does that mean it could get even
faster?!? At the moment it is running faster than Gloom!

Ah well, it's great to have such a good game finally for free on Amiga!

Keep the 040 optimisation BTW. You need it. I need it. It's good enough. ;)

THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU!!!

At least Adoom works unlike some others. ;)

I just want to send you a I-like-your-port-it's-better-than-the-others-letter.
You have made a good job. Firstly, it works. Secondly, it's fast. I read
that it had optimized c2p for 040 and I was very happy, because I have 040.
I tried it and it was definitely faster than the others that I had tried.
It took some time to figure that I had played the game WITHOUT 040
optimized c2p. I had to start without startup-sequence because of little
memory and then the FPU wasn't recognized until I started setpatch. THEN it
went FAST! :)

v0.2 exits with 8000.0003 here BTW, and the SHIFT key needs to be

Just for your reference my setup is:-

A4000 40Mhz 040 Wb3.1 Ks3.1 2Mb Chip 24Mb Fast.
Cybervision 64/3D 4Mb and Scandoubler using r69c CyberGfx3.

I usually use a 320x200 8-bit CGfx display on ADoom but it also works
very well on every standard screenmode I have tried so far.

I have compared ADoom with the other amiga versions currently being
distributed and so far yours has impressed me the most.  For a start
it is more functional.

First, let me congratulate you on your port of Doom. I got your
version after getting the AmigaDoom version, and found it too be much
better, having ECS support, and being easier to get running (ie no

many times...

I dowloaded your ADoom archive from aminet and tried it. Perfect it
works fine and it is the only doom port that works with my Amiga. But
there are two things.  Sounds are not played correctly, there seems to
be missing lot of samples and when the samples are played they come
with deley and when I quit the Doom it crashes the hole system.

My Amiga is:

A1200 motherboard on Mikronik tower + zorroII slots Kikstart 3.0
Cybervision 64/3D + CGX Software v3.1
Blizzard 1230-IV / 16 MB of fast Ram
And the programs that I use with my Workbench are
AmigaOS3.0 with MCP, Magicselector, Newicons4.1, Toolmanager

Thanks for good port, keep it going.

My machine, 1200 blizzard 030 FPU@50MHz and 16 mb SIMM 60ns

on my machine, I use the third from largest window, and I get a very

I have never seen such a FAST doom in Amiga. My computer is
A1200+020/28Mhz and it works with it quite fast & good, but....
sometimes after few minutes play (5-15) it just crash (program
jummed). Tasks will change (ctrl+m) but the game does not move.

Well.. can you do something ? :) I know i know.. it's very hard to track down
bugs like that but the game is so fast and nice....

The other version of adoom (hmm.. that was made by trace or something?) does
not work at all. Besides i hate programs which uses Ixemul.library ;-)

btw; i found another bug.. in 0.2 game exits middle of game very
often and says just 'returnconde 20' .

Well.. i just install version 0.3 of ADoom but it still exists middle of
action! But now is discover to write errorcode to paper.. here it is:

'Error: z_ct at w.wad.c:514'

I downloaded this game two days ago, and my wife and I haven't been
able to stop playing it! Bravo on an excellent job. We haven't had a
single bug, and gameplay has been very smooth.

For reference, here's my system:

An A4060T made by Quikpak, with 32 meg of RAM.

A PicassoIV video card.

I have prepareemul for Shapeshifter running at startup, Newicons,
QMouse, etc etc, and no problems at all! I just choose 320x240 24-bit
as my graphics mode at startup, and off I go. Pity the game doesn't
adjust to higher resolutions, but from what I hear that was a
limitation of the original.

Congatulations - didn't they say it could never be done?

I downloaded ADoom 0.2 from the Aminet on Friday. Had a bit of trouble
getting the WAD file but eventually downloaded it from Marcus
Geelnard's (AmiDoom) site (other sites were very slow and kept
throwing me out before the end).

Anyway the game runs great, very smooth on about 3/4 full screen. I am
using an A1200 with 040/33 Apollo board and 8MB fast (AGA only). So
far I have had no crashes and it multitasks well with Workbench 3.0,
with no problems on exiting. Sound is a bit off and on (occasionally
samples are missed if several other sounds are already playing - is
this a limitation of the audio.device/Paula chip?). No music either.

Keep up the good work. Perhaps this example will be the inspiration
that the big software companies need to get back into the Amiga
market.

Long live Amiga!

I remember when doom came out a couple of years ago,
many amiga owners bought PC's instead.

They said doom couldn't be ported to the amiga,
now thanks to ID software and you I can play doom on my AMIGA

One of the first DOOM recompilations for the Amiga that I tested was ADoom
and I was really amazed (I still am :) over the speed of it, in fact that
it was running on a custom 256 colour screen and multitasking!!
It runs very well on my A1200 040/40 AGA, and I run it in 3 sizes below
the full screen window to make it go smooth, although it's playable in
fullscreen too, but not as smooth.
Today I've tested several Amiga DOOM compilations, but ADoom is still,
without doubt the fastest one (at least on my 040/40 AGA) and the sound
effects work perfectly! For example AmigaDoom uses AHI for the sound and
it doesn't sound very good with annoying clicks every time a sound is
played, I don't know if this is caused by AHI or if the author(s) of
AmigaDoom has made some mistakes.

Just again another email to send a big THANK YOU to you for making the best
doom port on Amiga! It runs very fast (486 DX2 level) on my stock a4k040 /
CV64/3d / CGFX3 / OS 3.1 and I've also seen it running on an a1230/50 at which
the speed was very impressive too. I've had absolutely NO problems at all
(except for some tiny red glitches sometimes, but they didn't bother me),
either running from workbench or without startup-sequence.

It made me very happy that the game runned so slick on our great Amiga, and
once again it shows what a simple Amiga can do with it's 'puny' MC680x0! And
again it shows the tremendous enthousiasm of Amiga users, the sourcecode's
only 10 days out and a PeeZee game is very succefully ported 5 times to our
so-called 'dead' platform, and loads of people are already playing it,
according to userhints.txt! Gr8 stuff, and it certainly will keep a few more
people from giving in to the 'dark side'. ;)

Please keep up the good work, and maybe somebody can add support for that nice

Nicholas Piper <[e-mail]> writes:

 All DOOMS require a WAD, this contains all the game information,
 like sounds, graphics, level details etc. etc. If you don't
 want to pay for one, use the Shareware WAD from the original
 Shareware DOOM. This is availible at

   http://www.dtrance.ch/doom/download/Doom-[Shareware].lzx

 and

   http://www.pluk.com/

 I think. This is the ONLY WAD you can use without paying. If you
 want to use all the hundreds of custom WADS and 3rd party levels
 (say from ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/) you need the commercial
 WAD. This contains loads of more information that these
 custom 3rd party WADS don't contain but the game needs. You
 can get this WAD by buying the Doom game and copying it over
 to your Adoom/AmiDoom directory. You can then use them
 by doing "Adoom -file custom.wad" etc.

 You are NOT paying for ADoom or AmiDoom, but for the commercial
 WAD. Sure, ID software gave the source away, but they still
 want money :-)) Its only about 9.99 UKP, so go and buy it... maybe
 it'll encourage ID to give us the source to more games :-)

 When you add a custom.wad via -file, it replaces one or more
 of the levels. The level and episode should be given in the .txt
 file that belongs to the WAD. E2L3 would mean that the wad replaces
 Level 3 on episode 2. Therefore, to play that new level, you need
 to play the game until you get to level 3, after selecting episode
 2. (The second one on the list....) OR you can jump to that section
 by typing in IDCLEV23. To jump to E1L3 it would be IDCLEV13, etc.
 Sometimes you might see E3M3, but it means the same thing, they
 just used the word mission, instead of level I guess :-)

 Alternatively, you can warp straight to the level, by using
 the command line, =


  adoom -file whatever.wad -devparm -warp 2 5 -skill <skill number>

 Where <skill number> is in the range 1 to 5.

Questions Then (the FAQ bit)
----------------------------

Q. "Error: R_TextureNumForName: SW1BLUE not found"
   What does this mean ?

A.
   You have named the shareware WAD as doom.wad, it should
   be named as doom1.wad. I'm using doom1.wad, which is
   4196020 bytes. If yours is that size, call it doom1.wad,
   remove all the other wads, and off you go :-)

Ok, I've worked it out. I didn't realise WADs replaced individual levels.
turned out the wads I was trying to play DIDN'T replace level 1, so of
course I was seeing the normal level 1. Hmm...

if I -file a wad that replaces level 1, all is well. except that it's very

Ok, I figured out what the problem was, and I have no idea why it would do

IWADs are the main WAD files; PWADs are patch wad files.  If you check
the head of a wad file you will see 'IWAD' or 'PWAD'.  It's how DOOM
tells whether or not a patch wad file is really a patch wad file.
You assume the IWAD is in the same directory as ADoom unless you
specify a patch wad with the -file switch; if you specify -file,
you assume the IWAD is in the same directory as the patch wad.
You need the ability to set where the IWAD is and where the PWAD(s)
are independent of each other or ADoom.  Mike thinks you should
keep a path for EACH patch wad, but at least have the ability to
do seperate paths for the IWAD, the PWAD(s), and ADoom.

TIPS TO SPEED UP DISK LOADING

Alvaro Thompson <[e-mail]> writes:

Also, I noticed how loooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg
it took for the game to load the Doom II WAD file. It was also pretty
slow when loading each level etc. I imagine this is because of the
massive file size.  Maybe you could overcome this? Perhaps you could
make some small utility that will somehow split one massive WAD file
into several small ones, therefore taking less time to load in the
game.

I noticed that every time a new gfx appears, it has to be loaded from
the HD, eg an explosion, a new kind of enemy, etc, which produces a
very nasty jerking. Is there anyway that you could pre-load all of
these gfx into the game, before the game is going? This would be
excellent!

You can do it very simpy editing your .doomrc file, it's by default:

joyb_fire        0
joyb_strafe        1
joyb_use        3
joyb_speed        2

To archive your configuration your simply have to swap the use/speed/fire
buttons. Do not touch joyb_strafe since it's used in a tricky way.

You can't perfectly reach your desired configuration since I actually
use green to see last message as I've no time to look in the code for
a way to swap weapons (it's not as immediate as the rest of the

but any changes to the controls that I have made in .doomrc are lost

change the code in ADoom and program out the problem or copy the

   I read on your ADoom history that ADoom 0.2 and 0.3 hang on exit,

Is it possible to implement serial linking in your DOOMport? I've heard that

I think that serial linking would be more of use than network linking,
as everyone has a serial port but not many have network-cards.
The second reason is that games like DOOM, Duke3D and Quake tend to
be quite boring unless you play against a friend :). The third reason
is the thought is quite funny: Playing serial DOOM on two Amigas, and
PC owners might notice the power of Amiga. :)

Okay I will shortly try that with a friend! But my senses tell me
networking on a 030/50 together with DOOM isnt going to be fast,
if you know what I mean. But I dont want to sound negative before Ive
tried it myself..

I have now tested networking with Miami on two A1200/030/50!
It worked after some hours of struggling with Miami<->ADoom, but
the result was below expected. Even at the smallest window, it was
still unplayable. To make it faster, I think a 2x2 resolution or
real serial linking would be the things to do.

MUSIC
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joseph Fenton <[e-mail]> (author of the MUS-play code)
writes:

The MUS player only uses two of the audio channels (0 and 1,
although the channel numbers can be changed).  That leaves
2 channels free for the SFX.  By having music on two and SFX
on the other two, the master volume is still controllable using
the channel volume in Paula.  You'll notice that I combine up
to 16 voices and use an arithmetic shift for fast volume scaling.
The bfffo (log2(x)) gives the shift so that the volume remains
linear. If you combine SFX, you use more processing power,
but can then use the sepeartion as the voice volume when
adding into the left or right buffer just as I use the instrument
channel volume to combine the instument voices in the MUS
player.  I don't use the panning in the MUS file because I never
saw a MUS score that used it, but it could be used to do seperate
left and right output.

If you don't combine SFX, you only have two instead of four
channels.  Not much of a tradeoff as many folks use lower counts
on the real DOOM for a speed up. Plus,  if the music is turned off,
you could go back to four channels again.
[...]

[about MIDI_Instruments]
They are the standard MIDI instruments and percussions by the way; we'll
also be trying to do a new file ourselves sometime.  One hint, do most
normal or high pitched instruments at 72 and low pitched instruments
(bass) at 60; they sound better that way because the 11K sample rate
limits how good you can get one end or the other.  Sampling at an
octave closer to where it wil NORMALLY be played makes the instrument
play back better.

[...]

If you look at the MIDI_Instruments.s file, it is a table of offsets to
the instruments; the instruments are:

    LONG Sample Rate in MIDI_Instruments, replaced by ptr to wave in player
    FIXED Loop Start (if non-zero) of instrument
    FIXED Length and Loop End of instrument
    BYTE Flags, 0 in MIDI_Instruments
    BYTE Note Base of sampled instrument, 60 = sampled at middle C, 72 =
    sampled at 1 octave above middle C.
    ARRAY OF BYTES Instrument wave data in Amiga raw format (8bit signed)

The sample rate should always be about 11050; if the instruments are
significantly off from that number, the note sampling table should be
altered to correct the deviation.

There is one thing I would like to ask and it concerns the main new feature in

of people out there who, like myself, have GMPlay (General Midi Player)
installed on their Amigas. And more importantly have high-quality 16-bit
samples which are used in the play back of Midi files.

 Is there anyway of accessing these samples (either by accessing the GM:
directories directly or by including a program so we can compile our own
"MIDI_Instrument" files using samples from GMPlay)? It would alow us to have
better and clearer samples without having to rely on you to provided a HUGE
great Instrument file. In my case I have 25Megs of samples in my GMPlay

68060 PROBLEMS AND TIPS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Shaun F." <[e-mail]> writes:

I've found the following quirk when playing ADoom:

I have a blizzard 1260 68060 accelerator, and when using ADoom withOUT
having a fastexec patch (to place exec.library in FASTRAM, as the 1260
does not do this by itself), ADoom runs very very slow indeed.

Upon using FastExec or BlizzMagic's Fastexec feature, sysinfo reports
exec.library in fastram, and Adoom runs very fast and smooth. What's
the cause of this? Is ADoom VERY exec intense or something?

I was jsut thinking, many people with 1260's installed, with no
fastexec patch might find it unplayably slow.

[...]

I just read your docs in ADoom 0.5, and it says for 060 users,
FastExec dramatically increases the speed.  It actually seems to be
FastExec's "SSP to FastMem option" which affects the speed of
ADoom. FastExec is quite annoying, because it reboots the machine on
every cold startup. A much better solution is to use a program such as
MCP which has a SSP to FastMem option in it's processor prefs section,
and doesn't require rebooting on cold startups.

I'm sure there's other programs around which are simple commands that you can
add in your User-Startup or whatever that move the SuperVisor Stack to
FastMemory.
You can easily check if your SSP is in fastmem with a program like SYSspeed,
in it's System Configuration window. Look at the memory address of SSP:.

When running ADoom withOUT MCP's "SSP to FASTRAM" option, it's very very slow,
unplayably slow. However, if the Supervisor Stack is put into FASTRAM, ADoom
is very very smooth, the way it's meant to be. BlizzMagic and FastExec have
options to place SSP in fastram as well.

I never thought the SSP to fastram thing made such a huge difference, but it
certainly does with ADoom. What's the reason for this? People with 1260's not
running any SSP to fastram patches must find ADoom unplayably slow!

   If you need to run fastexec or similar program it is because you are

I'm not sure, but it might have to do with how you use the teleport.  I
played around with it last night and here's what I think.  If you are
moving when you arrive at the receiving end of the teleport, it won't
crash.  If you arrive in the teleport and are standing still, it
crashes.  In others words, holding down a cursor key while teleporting
is okay.

This may or may not be the problem... when I tried it though it was
okay... might have been coincidence though.
