Anybody know where to get latest Amiga DOOM ports?
« on: September 07, 2003, 01:16:28 PM »
Hi,

Having changed hard drives recently I thought it might be fun to reinstall a few old games.

I have ADOOMPPC 1.3 and DoomAttack 0.8 (I think). I have seen references to more recent versions of these but they are all old enough to have long gone from aminet.

Anybody know any other places to get them? Most of the pages I found just have links point to the non-existant aminet archives...

Did anybody ever port GLDoom to Amiga?

Perhaps that's because you're using a mirror? Could be that mirrors don't stock everything due to space restrictions.

Supposedly the US, UK, German and Italian mirrors are all complete. None of them have these files.

US game/shoot

German game/shoot

UK game/shoot

Italian game/shoot

I cant find ADoom/ADoomPPC on any of the above.

Yup, found lots of pages that all ultimately lead to links to aminet

@xyth

AdoomPPC did.

You can find the binary and source at Amiga projects by Jarmo Laakkonen.

I already tried. The links to the binary and source on Jarmo's page point to archives stored on aminet. They aren't there, however.

That is very odd. I don't know why they were removed... I picked a directory at random (util/misc) and there were files over 736 weeks old, which should be from the late 80s, unless i'm mistaken.

Missing files from Aminet? That's a serious problem. I downloaded ADoom1.3 68K from the UK mirror on June 27, so it's vanished only recently.
