FastDOOM

Doom port for DOS, based on PCDoom by @nukeykt. The goal of this port is to make it as fast as possible for 386/486 personal computers.

FastDOOM vs Original

  • Added FPS ingame viewer
  • Added FPS calculation after timedemo runs
  • Added option to render visplanes (ceiling and floors) without textures
  • Added option to render walls without textures
  • Added option to render Spectres and invisible objects like real transparent objects (harder to see, a little faster to render)
  • Added option to render sky as a flat fixed color
  • Added option to render Spectre and invisible objects like the Sega Saturn port did
  • Added option to render Spectre and invisible objects like Heretic/Hexen
  • New option to show only objects that are not far away from the player. All the enemies are still rendered as they're important
  • PC Speaker uses all sounds available (just for fun!)
  • New mode for PC Speaker (digitized sound!)
  • Disney Sound Source support
  • COVOX LPT DAC support
  • Adlib OPL2 PCM support
  • OPL2LPT and OPL3LPT support
  • Tandy 3-voice PCM support (SN76489)
  • Creative Music System / Game Blaster support
  • Audio-CD music support
  • PCM music support (through sound fx device)
  • Hercules automap support
  • Lot's of optimizations to make the game run faster / smoother
  • Removed low memory limit (may cause crashes with low RAM)
  • New detail level: Potato. It renders the full scene with a quarter width resolution (max 80x200). Much faster rendering, specially on 386 cpu's and slow 8-bit VGA ISA cards.
  • Better use of system RAM (full memory allocation)
  • Removed network gaming support
  • Removed joystick support
  • Removed Y mouse movement (move forward/backwards)
  • Added autorun support (F12 key)
  • Added mono sound support
  • Replaced DOS/4GW with DOS/32A providing a good speedup!
  • New setup program
  • New video modes (Mode 13h, MDA, CGA, EGA, Hercules, Text modes, VESA 2.0, Plantronics Colorplus, Sigma Color 400, Hercules InColor)
  • Advanced benchmark support
  • Uncapped FPS mode support (frame interpolation, more than 35 fps)
  • HiRes VESA video modes support

Build instructions (FastDOOM)

Requirements: Linux or WSL2 on Windows.

  1. Install OpenWatcom v2, NASM, GNU Make and DOSBox-X
  2. Execute source fdenv.sh
  3. Build:
    • Single executable: build.sh <executable> <parameters> Where: "executable" is the executable name (fdoom.exe, fdoomega.exe, ...) and "parameters" can be one of these:
      • "-clean": cleans all generated OBJs,
      • "-stub": adds the DOS/32 stub,
      • "-debug": generates debugging exectable, needs dbgcfg.h file to be adjusted to your needs
    • All the executables + automatic DOS/32 stubs: buildall.sh
    • Generate a full release package (ZIP): package.sh

Example to build a fresh FastDoom executable ready to use on real hardware:

./source fdenv.sh
./build.sh fdoom.exe -clean -stub

Build instructions (FDSETUP)

Requirements: Windows 3.1 or Windows 9x

  1. Install Borland C++ 4.52
  2. Install Laughing Dog Screen Maker 1.14
  3. Run .\FDSETUP\SCREENS\MAKE.BAT (MS-DOS)
  4. Open setup.ide project in Borland C++ IDE
  5. Build the project
