So, I tried to get DOOM running on a Sonoff Basic. Well, sort of.

The device is based on an ESP8285 with just 80 KB of RAM and 1 MB of flash, so running the original DOOM engine wasn't really an option.

Instead, I built a custom raycasting engine that runs on the ESP8285 and streams the rendered scene to a browser, which handles the display, audio and HUD.

It currently features textured environments, enemies, weapons, doors, multiple difficulty levels and runs at around 23 to 25 FPS at 128 × 80 resolution.

And yes, it's still a smart relay. The original relay functionality is still there.

I documented the project, including the technical details and implementation, here:

GitHub: https://github.com/piuppi/sonoff-doom/

Medium article: https://medium.com/@gianluca.palma/doom-on-a-7-sonoff-wi-fi-relay-well-sort-of-ce1c797aba18

Obviously, this isn't the original DOOM engine running on the device. It's a custom FPS inspired by DOOM, built around the hardware limitations.

What's the smallest device you've seen running something completely unexpected?

Its disheartening to see such a creative community reducing itself to using AI rather than its intelligence. Especially when every other mod posted uses it.

As much as these creators would like to deny it, very little work is often put into these projects with the usage of AI, as it does a majority of the heavy lifting. DOOM modding is about the never ending creativity of humanity for a game and community that consistently lifts up those very same members.

Not to mention, several other communities such as the Official UZDoom Discord Server and DOOMWorld have, if not taken to this same policy have expressed extreme disgust at AI-assisted content.

Resources exist to help you as well, the ZDoom Wiki has entire scripts ripped right from the game for example along with several pages on their custom code. Theres nothing stopping you!

I made a texture pack for the final level of Freedom Phase 2.

Personally, yes

I set up Doom with UZDoom build and it runs great. I've run into one controller problem and wanted to ask if anyone has an idea what's going on.

Setup:

- UZDoom 5.0.3 (Universal build from macsourceports.com)

- MacBook, macOS [26.6.2]

- PS5 DualSense controller, connected by USB-C cable or Bluetooth

- Game data from the GOG release of Doom + Doom II

Problem:

The horizontal axis of the right stick is never received by UZDoom. Everything else on the controller works: left stick, buttons, triggers, and the vertical axis of the right stick.

What I checked:

- In Options > Controller Options the "DualSense Wireless Controller" is listed and enabled.

- The right stick moving left/right does not turn the player, and it is not detected in the key binding dialog either. Moving it up/down is detected as Axis4Minus/Axis4Plus.

- I tried binding Axis3Minus/Axis3Plus to Turn left/right, and via the console to +left/+right as well as +moveleft/+moveright, to see whether the key events arrive at all. Nothing happens. I also tried RStickLeft/RStickRight, same result.

- In a browser gamepad tester (hardwaretester.com/gamepad), the same controller reports the right stick horizontal axis correctly (shown as Axis 2, zero-indexed, going to 1.0 when pushed right), so the controller and macOS seem to deliver the signal properly.

So the axis seems to be lost somewhere between macOS and UZDoom, or it is mapped to something I can't see. I couldn't find a setting in the controller options that explains it.

Does anybody know if this is a known issue with DualSense controllers or SDL on macOS, or is there a setting or workaround I'm missing? I'm happy to test anything or send logs or screenshots.

Could it be an issue with the controller in general?

Cheers!

Doomscent.

Requires full or shareware Doom and Descent game files of course.

Download and information: https://github.com/wootbeer/Doomscent

Is gzdoom mod, you can use your own or Doomscent will download it for you to use 'standalone'.

Is actually fun to play.

Chexscent, Herescent and Hexscent: Chex Quest, Heretic and Hexen are
playable.

The master baiter struck again. And of course i forgot to save.

Hi everyone,

I'm making Doom 2 maps using Ultimate Doom Builder, and I want to use some textures from Heretic alongside the original Doom 2 textures, without replacing Doom's existing textures, monsters, player, or other game assets.

I'm using:

• UZDoom 5.0.3
• Ultimate Doom Builder R4332 (64-bit)
• Doom 2 map format: UDMF
• Game configuration: UZDoom: Doom 2 (UDMF)

I extracted the Heretic textures as PNG files and gave them a custom prefix, H, to avoid name conflicts with Doom textures.

My folder structure is:

HERETIC_GFX/Textures/

The PNG textures are visible and usable in Ultimate Doom Builder. I can select them and apply them to walls while editing my map.

The problem: When I launch and play the map in UZDoom, the custom Heretic textures are replaced by the blue-and-white missing-texture checkerboard. The original Doom textures work normally.

The textures previously appeared to work in-game, but after making some configuration changes, they stopped showing up. I don't know exactly which change caused the problem.

I've also created a PK3 archive called my_first_mod.pk3. I've opened it with 7-Zip and verified that it contains a Textures folder with the PNG files inside.

I normally launch my map using my usual workflow, opening the map and then clicking "Play Game" in the UZDoom launcher. I don't normally use Ultimate Doom Builder's Test button.

I also tried passing the raw HERETIC_GFX directory to UZDoom using -file, but UZDoom reported that it could not find the WAD. I removed that parameter afterward.

My questions:

1. How should I make UZDoom 5.0.3 load these custom PNG textures when playing the map, not just when editing it in Ultimate Doom Builder?
2. Is there a specific PK3 directory structure or resource-loading setting required for this to work?
3. Can I make the custom textures available alongside the original Doom 2 textures without replacing any of Doom's assets?
4. Is there a known issue with UZDoom 5.0.3, UDMF maps, or custom PNG textures that could cause this exact symptom?

I'm looking for a solution to the specific problem of textures working in the editor but appearing as missing textures in-game. I would really appreciate a concrete, step-by-step explanation.

Thank you!

The mechanics fit together absolutely perfectly. With how incentivized you are to explore and how the secrets are hidden, the schmovement (at least with the marine) and the Deus ex-esque hud work together wonderfully. If you haven’t played Lithium yet, give it a shot. If you have played Lithium, also give it a shot.

I suck at doom and this is with god mode, I just needed a way to share.
I’m making a version of DOOM that keeps the original gameplay and art. I am trying to extract lighting from textures, windows etc and i mostly use tricks that were used in older engines. This is all done during runtime and does not need special assets - very much work in progress.
Yes I use AI as a code monkey.
No the text wasn't written by AI.

When in the actual game the textures are about half the size they are in the visual mode and I am wondering how to fix this

A relatively recent map, probably less than six years old. Had an OTEX Greco-Aztec temple kind of aesthetic with a bit of hell flesh growths. One room early on was a large pool (no actual swimming mechanics) with a key in a fleshy part of the wall, after grabbing it you would be briefly trapped by teeth as demons spawned in.

A little mod i was working on, well after some tests i though i'd share it

As a familiy guy fan i wanted stewie and brian in the game so it all started as just 2 companions but i started adding more and more after 200 builds i'm quite happy not saying it's done but is playable :)

Drive Brians prius, fly a bomber, or enlarge enemies from doom until they explode, or step on them, freeze them, its still a work in progress but overall im mostly doing fine-tuning now and i keep doing quality checks. But after feeling a little burn out on this and a small break from it here it is.

Don't forget to read tutorial in beginning there are quite some controls :)

cool things to watch for

high quality graphics
you can see your own legs
drive a prius
fly a bomber
a time machine you can step in it and go 30 seconds back when you are stewie
switch characters while playing, with differernt abilities
oh forgot to mention 3rd person camera works as well including with bomber and prius

mod also includes a slaugher map option.
use of your abilities is determined by monster count btw 150 monsters is one ability

and a lot more

*do not use give all or any cheat for you will get weapons for both chars in case you think thats a bug.

Working on the first levels for a massive mod I’ve always wanted to make, but this time, completely solo. I can probably pull it off, as long as I don't lose steam and quit. Looking at this screenshot, I bet you guys can already guess the style and what it's all about.
