Patch Notes

Launcher

There is a dedicated launcher for this port available here by PBeGood4.

Doom-in-Hexen Support

UDMF Support

MAPINFO Support

Hexen Support

  • DSDA-Doom includes demo-compatible support for hexen.
    • Use -iwad HEXEN.WAD (-file HEXDD.WAD for the expansion)
      • Or drag wads onto the exe
    • You can force hexen engine behaviour with -hexen (shouldn't be necessary)
  • Don't need to supply complevel (hexen is complevel 0 by necessity)
  • Known issues
    • Setting the "Status Bar and Menu Appearance" option to "not adjusted" will have no effect for hexen (it will default instead to "Doom format")
    • The "Apply multisampling" automap option is disabled for hexen
    • Automap colors are not configurable for hexen
    • Some of the more advanced features are not implemented for hexen yet, and using them may cause crashes or other odd behaviour.
    • Some menus extend over the hud.
    • Monster counter doesn't work as expected, due to cluster format (ex hud / levelstat)
    • Hexen-style skies aren't implemented yet (layering, etc)
    • The ALTSHADOW thing flag isn't affecting the rendering
    • Dynamic fade palettes aren't being used
    • The yellow message variant isn't implemented

Heretic Support

  • DSDA-Doom includes demo-compatible support for heretic (all the demos stored on dsda are in sync).
  • Heretic game logic should be set automatically if you use HERETIC.WAD as the iwad. If it doesn't work, please use the -heretic commandline option. This flips a switch in the engine that determines all the core game data.
  • Don't need to supply complevel (heretic is complevel 0 by necessity)
  • Known issues
    • Setting the "Status Bar and Menu Appearance" option to "not adjusted" will have no effect for heretic (it will default instead to "Doom format").
    • The "Apply multisampling" automap option is disabled for heretic.
    • Automap colors are not configurable for heretic.
    • Some of the more advanced features are not implemented for heretic yet, and using them may cause crashes or other odd behaviour.
    • Dehacked support for heretic isn't implemented yet.
    • Some menus extend over the hud.
