As you can see, this is a huge release. It implements pretty much every feature we wanted to include in Doom-X and a few more besides. Any future releases will be primarily focused on bug-fixes, tweaks, and tidy-ups. So, without further time-wasting, check out the list of changes below and enjoy this new version. ^_^
What's new/fixed:
* Mod support (pWADs only) with selectable Start Map
* System link support for up to 4 players added (*extremely experimental* see below for details)
* Graphics rendering code rewritten (performance gain)
* Turning controls now fully analogue
* 3 alternate controller configurations added (Legacy, Southpaw, and Legacy Southpaw)
* Now detects controller in the lowest numbered port
* Setup menu added to launcher for resolution mode and other settings
* Start map can be changed for mods
* Updated launcher with graphics, sound effects and new options
* Xbox save games with title and save images added (saves from older versions should transfer automatically)
* Freezing issues should be fixed
* Fixed weapon cycling order bug
* Fixed map panning controls
* Fixed consecutive WAD loading bug
* '.'s in startup text now display correctly
* In-game menu bug fixed (Quit Game showing twice)
* Other small bugfixes
NOTE: Remember that the System Link feature is still very much a work-in-progress so it may not work 100% correctly 100% of the time. Thus far it has only been tested on a LAN with 2 Xboxes though up to 4 should work fine. Detailed and constructive feedback on this feature would be appreciated. |
with system link! i'm up for some old skewl doom! |

Thanks |

The trouble will be sorting out which game your loading. DoomX will let you load doom/doom2/final doom/ultimate doom as well as the add on packs as well as custom mods.
Could get a bit confusing. Would be good to play Doom2 or UDoom though |

Na no arena's been made for it yet. As the release file said syslink support was extremely experimental and I think he meant it was for real syslink not for tunnelling apps - compression etc in the game might not be there which might make it as bad online as XLime is..
The first thing I would check is can Doom get your XBox detected in Kai? |

Hey hicaow, I'm willing to try DoomX with you tonight (Tuesday) if you want. I got the DoomX and also live in Can. (for ping/distance might help if we aren't to far). |
