10.1.7 Doom

Figure 10.5: Doom

This is the famous Doom game.

Getting started

For the game to run you need .wad game les located in /.rockbox/doom/ on your player. Create the directory and save the following les there:

rockdoom.wad. The Rockbox .wad, based on prboom.wad from prboom-2.2.6

Your wad les. Copy all Doom wads you wish to play into that directory.

The needed les can be found at ZPluginDoom

To play addon wads create the addons directory within the doom directory. Place wad les in this directory. Currently doom only supports a maximum number of 10 addons.

A free alternative for Doom 2 is FreeDoom (http://freedoom.sourceforge.net). This can be used in place of doom2.wad, or it may be used as an addon in Doom, by placing it in the addons directory.

Menus

Rockdoom Menu. The Rockdoom menu is shown when Doom is rst launched. This is the only time it can be accessed (before starting the game). To re-adjust Rockdoom options, you will need to quit your current game and restart the plugin.
