Worthy Mention: I did come across Skulltag ( ) that seems to be an online version of GZDoom. GZDoom - Old school action with modern engine features. Using some of the high-res texture packs I’d found during my Doomsday investigation, I’ve ended up with a wonderfully modern Doom experience.ĭoomsday - Eye candy, 3D models, funky effects. Overall I found it to be a somewhat tighter and smoother experience than the Doomsday port. It eschues fancy eye-candy in favour of bug fixes/improvements to the original engine.

This is an OpenGL version of the popular Zdoom port. It just didn’t feel like the game I knew and loved. However, after playing through the first episode of Doom, I realised that by adding all this eye-candy I’d inadvertently removed some of the very ‘essence’ that made Doom so much fun. I spent a few hours adding high-res textures, 3D models, updated UI graphics, fog and lighting effects - fantastic!

This is a fully featured source port, with many customizable addons that include high-res textures, 3D models support etc.
