Dweller Dark Posted November 29, 2023 There isn't a specific GZDoom/UDMF mapping format for Doom 1 that I can find in UDB, though I'm assuming the "GZDoom: Doom 2 (UDMF)" format might be the correct one? Is there anything to be aware of if I use that for Doom 1, assuming it's correct? 0 Share this post Link to post
1 andrewj Posted November 29, 2023 I assume the game (Doom 1 or 2, HacX, Chex, etc) is a different setting to the map format (normal, UDMF, etc). 0 Share this post Link to post
1 ramon.dexter Posted November 29, 2023 Config for doom1 and doom2 are the same, therefore there is no "doom1". 0 Share this post Link to post
1 boris Posted December 3, 2023 There's no Doom 1 config for GZDoom because there's no point. If you want episodes just use the Doom 2 config and create episodes through MAPINFO. 0 Share this post Link to post

The thing is, the GZDoom/UDMF format for Doom 1 doesn't show up in UDB. And I seem unable to find anywhere that I can drop a cfg file into for it to do that. 0 Share this post Link to post
0 hawkwind Posted November 29, 2023 If you like, you ccould make your own config. Just omit the doom2 specific stuff. 0 Share this post Link to post
0 Lobo Posted December 3, 2023 The only things to keep in mind are to avoid adding the super shotgun and the new enemies to your map. Also the map naming needs to follow the ExMx scheme instead of MAPxx. 1 Share this post Link to post
0 Gez Posted December 3, 2023 (edited) KDiZD featured Hell knights, chaingunners, and a super shotgun in Doom 1. Void featured several Heretic and Hexen monsters and weapons in Doom II. When talking about ZDoom, it's pointless to put in restrictions on what you can do based on the IWAD. 1 Share this post Link to post

There kinda is because GZDoom supporting Doom 2 stuff in Doom 1 doesn't mean DOOM.WAD has the assets for them. 0 Share this post Link to post

Yes, just use the doom2.wad. If the textures that are in Doom 1 and not Doom 2 are needed they can be used via a texture wad. And nothing is stopping anyone from creating a "GZDoom with Doom 1" game config. 0 Share this post Link to post

Some people might want to specifically create a .WAD for people who have DOOM.WAD though. Remember the Doom 1 and Doom 2 (Final Doom is weird territory, because you're technically paying for it when you buy Doom 2 currently, but it's also separately available for download for free from the add-ons service for not just Doom 2's Unity version but Doom 1 as well. I don't know how that works in terms of licencing.) IWADs still aren't free, so it's not completely unreasonable, even if the number of people on here who don't already own all of the IWADs is miniscule. 0 Share this post Link to post

And by using DOOM.WAD you'll exclude the people who only own DOOM2.WAD. 0 Share this post Link to post
