- ImAnAmateur 3y agoGoing to the forum page, reading the release post, and then clicking on the download link there is part of the experience. https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/134292-myhousewad/ https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/134292-myhousewad/ The page is tall enough to avoid spoilers. Going in blind is the right choice.
- anotherhue 3y agoAgreed, we're in art territory here so convenience takes a back-seat.
- INTPenis 3y agoI just want to add to that, for all the Silverblue users, that you can start it from a Flatpak of GZDoom like this. flatpak run org.zdoom.GZDoom -file ~/.var/app/org.zdoom.GZDoom/.config/gzdoom/pwads/MYHOUSE.WAD Note that you still need one of the official game wads or the Flatpak of GZDoom will not start at all.
- jammaloo 3y agoWorth noting, that the myhouse.wad file, at least for me, does not contain the full level. You instead need to use the myhouse.pk3 file.
- INTPenis 3y agoOh yeah? I'm at the 4th level already, not sure how deep it goes.
- ImAnAmateur 3y agoIf you've reached MAP03 - The Gantlet at any point then you're not playing the right version.
- INTPenis 3y agoOh I must try the pk3 then, thanks for the heads up.
- implements 3y ago3. Don’t panic if the level takes a while to load. (Gleaned from the John Romero play through on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIl_TqFJNO8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIl_TqFJNO8 - there’s some UI config tips there, too)
