Is this your personal experience, what did you do to get them to run well ?
I literally just installed the official operating system, following the official instructions and installed both pieces of software from the official package repositories.

Some other tweaks were required too to support my screen resolution. For Quake3, you may have to change the renderer to opengl1 or try q3lite. See https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=247841 https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=247841 (I have not tried Q3 myself but I know it can run, it even runs on RPi1. There are videos on youtube)
- bawolff 5y agoIf a game from 1993 designed for 4 mb of ram and a 12 Mhz CPU is struggling on your 4gb ram 2 Ghz cpu, something must be amiss...
- dpflug 5y agoThe source ports are more recent, and no longer designed for 4mb of RAM and 12Mhz.
- wang_li 5y agoIt depends deeply on what version of doom the poster is talking about. Dhewm3 (source port of Doom 3) runs at 7 FPS on my RPi 4. The original Doom should run perfectly fine. The 2016 version of Doom is unlikely to run with any degree of playability.
- yoz-y 5y agoIntriguing. I always though that when people talk about running doom it 100% of time meant Doom 1 and 2.
- dpflug 5y agoTry one of the other Doom ports. Odamex, Crispy Doom, or Zandronum should be able to run quite well on that machine. You may have to adjust graphics settings.
