Here's a question. The first version of DOOM (that is, the first publicly-available version, not counting the betas etc.) actually identified itself as 0.99, not 1.0. Was there a separate 1.0 version afterwards, or did id directly jump to 1.1? -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 01:18, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

DOOM 2 and Final DOOM

Can we mention DOOM 2 and Final DOOM in this article? We could at least denote that some of these ports support DOOM 2 and/or Final DOOM. --SuperDude 06:55, 11 September 2005 (UTC)

I removed...

I removed the statement "(most notably the Sony PlayStation version which incorporates elements of Doom II including monsters, into levels based upon the original Doom)." This statement is not entirely accurate. The Playstation version of Doom includes every level of both Doom and Doom II, not just "elements" of Doom II.

Nearly every level, not quite all.PeterCT 13:28, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Jaguar

Needs further info on the Jaguar version. I hear it used most of the buttons on its controller for a huge amount of weapons.

That's essentially correct(though I don't think 6 weapons(plus bare hands) is "a huge amount"). AtariAge has scans of the entire Doom manual at http://www.atariage.com/manual_thumbs.html?SoftwareLabelID=1078 if you want to go over that for details. I'd edit the info into the article myself, but I'm not sure which stuff is different from other Doom versions.--Martin IIIa (talk) 19:39, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

The Ultimate Doom

The Ultimate Doom redirects here, although this article does not discuss multiple versions of the commercial doom releases. Therefore the redirect seems inappropriate. -- Jon Dowland 13:14, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

I tell a lie, it does. OK, well the information about the different variants of the game (vs. platforms it has been ported to, or derived sources) is not expressed clearly enough. For instance it isn't present in the contents at the top. -- Jon Dowland 13:15, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

SNES Doom and Super FX2

The article mentions that the SNES cartridge of Doom did not contain a Super FX2... It mentions that it is "largely untrue" - it is either true or it isn't... the cartridge can't half contain a Super FX processor. In any case, the wiki article on the Super FX refers to the SNES version of Doom, indicating that it *does* contain the chip. One of the articles is wrong, in that case.

The box did have a SuperFX logo Ace of Sevens 03:25, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
I always knew it did contain one - there's no way a 16-bit 3.5 MHz processor alone would handle a game like Doom. EpiVictor 10:16, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Redirecting from "Playstation Doom" to here.

Does anyone agree it would make sense to have it so that when you type in "playstation doom" in wikipedia's search engine, it should go straight to the Playstation Doom section in here? Likewise with other versions too I guess, although that's the main one.. Doom jester 07:59, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

ZX Spectrum version - removal or changing?

I don't think the Spectrum version is on the same league with the other source ports and versions of Doom in the article: all the others have in common that they are based at least in part on id's source code, either by a commercial license or after the game's source code was made public, and use the original WAD files (or a modification thereof) as the source of their data. The Spectrum version (and others like the TI-83 etc.) fulfill none of these "requirements", and are mostly Wolf-3D-ish engines which use custom made data, written from scratch, and with the word Doom slapped on them. On these grounds, I feel the ZX Spectrum version should be removed from the article or mentioned in a special section with those facts evident. For now I just added some notes onto the ZX Spectrum subsection itself, but I think deletion or reassignment should be considered. EpiVictor 00:00, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

The article is getting pretty big. Maybe there could be an article that is just about cut-down versions or unofficial ones or something like that. Also I think it's worth having a new article specifically for the Playstation version because there's enough information. Merlin1981 16:27, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Categories of Port Systems Games

Shouldn't there be categories at the bottom of the page like 3do games etc.? The only thing I'm wondering though is how you would do it because if you do that, when you go to the 'list of 3do games' page, it will have 'Versions and ports of Doom' on it instead of Doom. How do we get this sorted out so everything works properly? Merlin1981 16:29, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Err, isn't there? I seem to see "To show a screenshot of a console version of a PC video game, for comparison purposes.". What's wrong with that? Ben 2082 (talk) 12:25, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
You need to read the article that the above post links to. Here's a quote from it: "Good use rationales will expand on why the non-free item is needed, why a free item cannot be used in its place, and what essential function it performs in each article in which it is to be used." The rationale you quote only accomplishes the last of those three things, and does so in a horribly vague manner at that.--24.60.220.148 (talk) 15:15, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Source Ports (Windows)

I had a look at the "Versions and ports of Doom" wiki page. It doesn't cover the Windows source ports, such as Doom Legacy, DoomGL, ZDoomGL, GLDoom, and the history of each source port, and lost of source port code, etc. There's a full list on DoomWorld source port pages.

Should this information go in this article? If so I wouldn't mind writing about some of the earlier ones, like GLDoom and the author's hard drive blew up and lost all his code.. and it was a good looking port too. Also there's so many source ports with similar names and it gets all confusing, so it would be nice to list these similar named ports and clarify any confusion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrewwan1980 (talk • contribs) 16:49, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Where is the Amiga CD32 port?

Where is the Amiga CD32 port, i had relevent infomation about it to tell anyone, with intrest about the article. It would be good if it could be added. P.S I have just written an edit discuss on this article and it vanshied into thin air. If this can be sorted it would help, thankyou mcjakeqcool. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcjakeqcool (talk • contribs) 10:52, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

So let me get this strait, Doom clones are not doom ports, okie dokie. mcjakeqcool Mcjakeqcool (talk) 12:46, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Doom 95 on Windows XP/Vista/7

I don't know about the rest of the world, but I have mostly had no issues at all with DOOM on the aformentoned OS's. The game does have some neon colours when it gets minimized, but i've only needed one DLL for the LAN networking. The mouse doesn't work though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.154.91.50 (talk) 11:10, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

Plan 9 and AROS

Doom has also been ported to Plan 9 from Bell Labs (see) and AROS.--Athaba (talk) 10:08, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

Listing models DOOMD is compatible with

Would it be appropriate to list camera models of which the digita OS port is compatible with? Lennas (talk) 03:01, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

What about JDOOM?

A friend of mine showed me a 'souped-up' version called JDOOM, where everything was the same as in doom 1, except for the fact that all the walls have been animated from scratch in a higher resolution. I do not know if this version has ever been released for the public or that it was some kind of beta-version... So my question is: is there anybody out there who knows more about it than I do? And would he or she be so kind to add it to this page? Oxygene7-13 (talk) 17:11, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

JDoom is not an official port, and therefore it's listed here. --uKER (talk) 17:14, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanx man, I had to wait for this information since I've last seen this version... 20 years ago or so...Oxygene7-13 (talk) 18:05, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Doom by Eltechs?

Why no mention of this? While hard to find now, I have it on my Galaxy Tab and it seems to be a pretty good port all things considered. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.174.230.132 (talk) 02:13, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
