As dml! said, you can perform clean install. But you would have to make a backup of important files and settings

In Windows i guess you can make bootable USB with OS
You can boot from it and then format your drive and install your OS. Your license should preserve AFAIK
lethal schooner
Hmm yeah, I'll see about that
lusty viper
Yeah, with Windows 10 the license is tied to the hardware.

Hello
Frens
I'm going to try to mod BFG Edition for the first time
Is there any way to easily turn on/off what mods you have?
Without reconfiguring everything?
nova ledge
I guess what mods you have is determined by what packs are in your resources folder.
You could make bath files to install and uninstall certain mods with copy and delete commands
main eagle
@nova ledge I guess you meant batch files because I don't know what a bath file is 😢
I have no idea how to do that but I apparently had a VR mod installed that I wasn't using so I'm uninstalling and reinstalling completely.
nova ledge
Yeah, batch, typo 
main eagle
thankfully the dooms aren't big games
nova ledge
As i know VR mod is modified exe, so you need folder with original and VR executable in some folder, let's say assets
installVR.bat deletes OG excecutable and copies from assets VR excecutable
removeVR.bat does vice-versa
Also try to look up some Doom 3 mod manager, maybe someone already did them
main eagle
Thank you Neo Kesha. I've been researching now.

i have a problem
with the pc version
Whenever i try to play it, before it even does the copyright warnings and logos, it hangs on a black screen
i'm not sure if it's a driver thing or a problem with my pc
i've seen people from last year saying they had the same black screen problem but before it got to the main menu
so i was wondering if anyone has had this happen to them and can help me fix this
i'll check back later after work. I meant to ask earlier but i've been busy. sorry
nova ledge
Try finding info from game's log file. It is somewhere in documents/idgames/doom

I need admin support

@nova ledge ok. if i have trouble i'll let you guys know

Just asking for some additional assistance with working with ZDL and mods. I had some helpful advice earlier, but a bit more clarification would be appreciated.
For instance, with a mod that has multiple files meant to go in the 'ZDoom skins folder', do they both individually go into the 'external files' column?
And is this correct?
spiral cape
Is this also correct? (General Settings)
simple slate
Yes.
spiral cape
Alright. So, for something like DoomOne, do I put each wad individually in the external files column?
simple slate
IWADs go into the IWAD column, everything else into external.
spiral cape
Right, even though normally they'd go in the 'skins' folder of GZDoom?
simple slate
Well
Skins go in there. You can put PK3 and WAD files wherever you like but I recommend to simply have them in the same dir as GZDoom.
spiral cape
Unzip the folder, and place doomone.wad in your skins folder within ZDOOM or Zandronum. Then simple start your chosen engine, and select Knee Deep in the Dead.
Successful installation will be recognised by the new DOOM:ONE start screen showing Phobos.
That's what it says, but I don't know if this must be done even when using ZDL.
simple slate
That's the point: You don't have to. If you use ZDL you can just browse to the files you wanna load, hit "Launch" and ZDL does the rest.
spiral cape
Ah, good. And I'm guessing 'pk3' files are the same?
simple slate
Yes.
spiral cape
Goodo. I think I can manage for now, until I decide to fiddle around with Ultimate Doom Visor.
simple slate
Visors are just the same: PK3 files. Make sure they are compatible and load them.
spiral cape
Yeah
spiral cape
Like, does texture stuff go first? Or music?
nova ledge
Guess you can try and change order if something goes wrong
Textures and music are independent for order technically
I'd say libraries to first, then assets, then mods, then expansion for them
^ general mod experience, not ZDL
spiral cape
I'll see if it works.
spiral cape
Seems to be working.
native ruin
@nova ledge idgames is not a folder in my documents
native ruin
if you ca, will you let me know?
nova ledge
It seems that doom haven't generated log at all to look up what exact error you have
That's not the problem of your assets being corrupt for sure, game wouldn't start at all
nova ledge
native ruin
it would hang on the black screen
nova ledge
Maybe this will help
native ruin
ooo
alot of fancy words in this XD
but this might help
i'll try it out later

I was playing Final Doom on my laptop right, then I died but it didn't give me a choice to reset so I'm a dead doomguy walking around
sullen aspen
Cant just restart from last save?
prime garden
Aight
I'm back to normal
I did it again holy shit
I'm thinking everytime I play on nightmare and if I keep sprinting while the demons are shooting at me I enter ghost doomguy mode
How do I stop it
And I blue'd screen
prime garden
Yeah
tawny crane
You go in ghost mode you say? Are you running it on dosbox or some vanilla sourceport?
prime garden
Yeah
tawny crane
It is a bug engine that happens for memory overflow
You may come across this bug mostly on nightmare plays and when there are a lot of hitscanner enemies
Which final doom has a lot of them, mostly plutonia
Very odd to happen i say
Also mentions for some line of sight check it could happen, technically wouldnt know exactly myself
tawny crane
wait
thats not the bug i specified
thats other kind of bug
wait are you playing on the switch?
that's not entirely when i meant vanilla, i mostly reffered to the original pc release
this one cant happen on pc
either way, thats' bad, a bug you found, not entirely sure you can do much about it
prime garden
Damn
cyan lagoon
Sad thing to happen but a good thing as well
Since you are possiblity the first one to discover said bug
tawny crane
oh yeah...i forgot that detail that it was your laptop
huh, but then what program are you using it to play on
prime garden
im not really using a program, im using the final doom app
tawny crane
the final doom app... the final doom app from where you get it?
prime garden
xbox store or market whatever it's called
tawny crane
oh, must be its own port, could explain that bug you are having, not entirely sure
tawny crane
you know, it is its own engine, it looks so different for how you move around and how your gun bobs,
prime garden
ah

well just set your mode on do not disturb
storm wyvern
or go into Notification settings

but that wont stop the lag
storm wyvern
You can right click channel names and mute them if you don't want notifications from that channel
prime garden
Okay thank you
ornate citrus
you still get them you just dont get notified
spiral cape
Does anyone know if 'DoomOne' causes the game to think you finished 'Inferno' if you try to start a new game on that episode?
The other mods are 'Brutal DooM' and a HD Sprite mod, along with the DoomOne music wad
nova ledge
No need to repeat question. I guess, no one knows if no one replied
spiral cape
Is there a command to make you start on the episode of your choosing? I wonder if that might get around it.
nova ledge
There is engine command that allows you to select map you want to play. But that was in vanilla. I don't think it will work with custom levels. But maybe. Try to find list of commands of your engine

sterile meadow
So my DOOM (2016) on PC looks extremely red and I have no idea how to turn it down. Can anyone help?
Like I know it’s common in game but in person it’s too intense
Compared to others I’ve seen
sterile meadow
scenic kite
Most of the time, these graphical problems can be solved with either a verification of files or a reinstall, but just to make sure it is 100% the game, was there change to your monitor recently in terms of color settings or gamma?
Also, just to make sure, is this the level that is what this gore nest is on?
Triggering the gores nest could solve the problem since it is the only thing that is giving off red in that room, but if it persists, refer back to my first message .
sterile meadow
Thanks for the reply, yeah that’s the level. I have two monitors and it’s the same affect on each. It’s not horribly awful but it’s a bit annoying on how the affect is so strong compared to when I see other version that don’t have that bleeding red that removes some detail. like your image, on my version I can’t see the detail on the bottom of the gore nest, the red is too intense. As well as when I pull on the gore nest the imps spawn in and I can barley see them until the red tent leaves. It’s honestly red in general is oddly intense compared to my console experience (Xbox/Switch) and other videos of the PC footage. I haven’t touched the gamma on my monitor but I’ll see if it helps as well as a verification. I’ll let ya know if I got it. Thanks for the help!
Btw the slayers symbol “you are rage” was also extremely bright
sterile meadow
Update: so I reinstalled DOOM and it actually fixed some graphical issues that were there before. But now the game runs at a horrible frame rate. Idk what’s going on
scenic kite
Is it low fps or stuttering?
@sterile meadow Sometimes, the Razer Chroma setting in DOOM can cause massive frame drops and stuttering, if you have that setting turned on then I'd recommend disabling it. If it's something else, I would have to know more information on what specs you have.
sterile meadow
It dips into the 40fps completely randomly and stays there for awhile.
scenic kite
Hmm, what API are you on? Open gl or Vulcan?
sterile meadow
Vulcan
scenic kite
Try open gl, sometimes switching the api can fix issues since Vulcan has been known to be iffy with some builds.
sterile meadow
Alrighty I’ll try that.
I’ll have to do it later tho but I’ll keep y’all posted if it changes. Thanks a lot for the help, Srry for being a bother
scenic kite
It's completely fine! I like helping people troubleshoot, it used to be my old job.
scenic kite
^
sterile meadow
I'm so confused, before I was running the game at near 200 FPS at Ultra Settings. A few things were off but the game looked great. Now the game runs at 30 no matter the settings vulkan or opengl. i even set the PhysX settings Processor to my GPU "Geforce GTX 980 Ti" because I read somewhere that It'll help but it did nothing. At this point I feel like I got a virus. I don't mean to nag but its just so confusing.
pine night
If you have a system monitoring software, run that while playing doom, check the graphs for throttles and thermals, if there's no problem there, then I'd be less concerned cuz it could only be some software issue then
tawny crane
@sterile meadow Yes check the usages on both cpu and gpu. And on RAM just to make sure.
If nothing helps, reinstall Windoze.
sterile meadow
Just to give an update so you all don’t feel ignored. The PC’s CPU has been overheating so it’s an issue I’ll have to dig deeper into. I don’t mean to sound like I’m giving up or anything However due to recent life situations... I can’t exactly work on it at the moment. But I’ll post if and when it starts working and when I’m back to ripping and tearing. Honestly came to just say thank you all baring with me. I don’t wanna make an over the top appreciation speech but I didn’t wanna stay quiet either. So basically. Thanks a lot really.

anyone know a way to play quake on pc?
nova ledge
Quake is originally PC game, if you mean on Windows, then use DosBox or one of modern open source ports
If you use Open Source port, they you still need original quake to be bought, keep in mind.
Quake II will go without any problems on Windows 10.

I recommend this for Quake 2
Runs great on Windows 10 and is faithful to the original

I'm looking for a good guide on how to use gzdoom with Chex Quest. I'm new to all of this and I downloaded gzdoom, the brutal doom v21 file, and a chex quest brutal doom v21 patch.
still herald
Did AVGN made you do this? Anyways, put in the chex3.wad file in your GZDoom folder, download Brutal Doom V21 and drag any Brutal Doom files in gzdoom.exe. GZDoom will detect chex3.wad in the folder so no need to drag that file
Chex Quest 3 includes the first two Chex games as the first two episodes, the third game is the third episode
ember thorn
He did! Haha
So then when I want to run the brutal doom mod then, I need to do that everytime?
@still herald you see the episode too? I was thinking about it before his video today so it was a sign
still herald
It was a sign from the heavens, yes it is
Well you can autoload the mod by editing the .ini file
So go under "[chex.chex3.Autoload]" and type "Path=coolgamemod.pk3" without the quotes
coolgamemod being any mod files you have, you have to do a path for each file.
You could create an autoload folder so you don't have to worry about files piling up, so like "Path=autoload/coolgamefile.wad"
Well, you can just type in "Path=autoload" and not put in the file names, but that can lead to issues but up to you
ember thorn
When I need to include the chex patch, do i select brutal doom AND the patch files to drag on top of the gzdoom exe?
still herald
Well when you do a drag and drop, yes you have to include the patch files. But if you don't want to do that everytime, go to the .ini file to set a path for the files.
It is probably easier that way
ember thorn
@still herald would you mind walking me through a little? Which .ini file should I be looking for/where is it located
@still herald Okay, I figured it out in regards to adding the brutal doom and chex.wad. The issue now, is that when I try to do the same Path=.... for the chex brutal doom patch that I found, it has an error message
Script warning, "cheques.pk3:decorate" line 44:
Unknown class name 'EvidenceCheckerRedSkull' of type 'Actor'
Script warning, "cheques.pk3:decorate" line 249:

Execution could not continue.
1 errors while parsing DECORATE scripts
2 things as well: 1. Setting don't save upon quit and 2. I can't use keys, despite picking them up
ember thorn
figured the settings out. and im reading the chex quest patch for brutal is what fixes it. so i just can't get it THAT to work
ember thorn
@still herald @me when you get a chance to catch up
still herald
Have you loaded the patch file after the main Brutal Doom file?
I am pretty sure it should be done that way
ember thorn
I have it set to auto load and that works
[chex.chex3.Autoload]
Path=chex3.wad
Path=brutalv21.pk3
this works
I've tried adding: Path=cheques.pk3 at the end so it would go in that order, but it doesn't work
I've tried just draging the cheques.pk3 on top of gzdoom and it errors out
With this:
Script warning, "cheques.pk3:decorate" line 44:
Unknown class name 'EvidenceCheckerRedSkull' of type 'Actor'
Script warning, "cheques.pk3:decorate" line 249:
Unknown class name 'CeilGreenBloodChecker' of type 'Actor'
Script warning, "cheques.pk3:decorate" line 268:
Unknown class name 'GreenBLoodSplasher2' of type 'Actor'
Script warning, "cheques.pk3:decorate" line 311:
Unknown class name 'SplatteredLargeGreen' of type 'Actor'
Execution could not continue.
1 errors while parsing DECORATE scripts
What other way do I load the patch file after main Brutal Doom @still herald Thanks!
still herald
Okay I see one problem, do not autoload the chex3.wad file
If you placed it in your GZDoom folder, it will detect it as an IWAD, as a base game
So remove that one.
Hmmm, does BDV21 come with any text files for Chex Quest help?
ember thorn
@still herald
Not sure what you mean about loading the patch after the main BDV21 file. How do I do that?
ember thorn
@still herald I've tried following this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/brutaldoom/comments/7ni1hz/howto_three_different_methods_to_install_and_use/
And I went through it, step by step, and this is what I get when I load up Brutal Doom, then a Fix, and then the Chex patch
Execution could not continue.
Script error, "bd21rc1fix.pk3:cvarinfo" line 1:
cvar 'bd_bloodamount' already exists
tawny crane
you select all chex wads and brutal doom then drag and drop all on gzdoom
still herald
You do not need to select chex3.wad, it is an IWAD to GZDoom
So it'll detect it as a base game to launch.
And huh? If that still doesn't work, then I have no idea if it's either botched code (probably not surprising) or...actually I wouldn't know since I haven't played Brutal Doom for two years now

Does anyone know how to restore deleted files?
nova ledge
Recuva
prime garden
I'm trying that I don't think it's working
nova ledge
It's never guaranteed to restore deleted files though
prime garden
So my art is possible gone
serene quiver
what device were they on?
prime garden
Not really on a device more of a file
serene quiver
what device were they on?
nova ledge
If physical place where data was written was taken by newer data there is no way you can restore it. Deleting files basically is marking sectors like "you can overwrite that place". And that's how restore works. If that place wasn't taken, you can restore file by unmarking it's sectors as deleted
prime garden
Well all of the art was in a folder and I can't recover and folder?
nova ledge
Where was that folder
HDD? Second HDD with low usage? USB drive?
How exactly you tried to recover with recuva?
Try selecting "All files" and "Deep search" or how was it
prime garden
Okay I'm doing the deep search now with all files
And I'm just going to say screw it and recover everything up from today
And by the look of it, it happened at 11:16am or 11:17am
prime garden
Do I have to add that my computer permanently deleted it
So no recover?
nova ledge
Depends
If your computer filled sectors with zero - yes, no recover.
If it marked sectors as free sectors, without clearing them, then maybe
nova ledge
System restore point is different thing.

Is there a Doom port you can play on the Chromebook?

There is HTML5 versions of Doom

Ah okay

@humble venture Chromebook can use Linux applications, so use the linux build of whatever source port you want to use
And due to the fact that pretty much all source ports of Doom are based on the original Linux port of Doom, it'd be fair to say that most source ports have a Linux version somewhere

tawny crane
Can anyone tell me how i can play doom mods co op with a mate?
Preferably via GZdoom
nova ledge
GZdoom is not your best choice, for coop you should use Zandorium
tawny crane
there will be mods that cant be played on zandronum, while gzdoom is not the best for online, still duoble for playing certain gzdoom mods
i would recommend getting ZDL launcher for hosting/joining a match
first things first, the host needs to do portforwarding
portforward #5029, that's the default for gzdoom
if you got ZDL, you should see a window like this (after of course setting up the source port and iwad), you click the up/down arrow circled in red, to show the multiplayer options
on your hostname/IP adress, you put your public IP adress if you are hosting, and game mode switched to coop, and you should define only the players that are gonna be in your game, if it is 2, then just 2 and no more
As for the player joining the match
it should be selected on the player section "joining" and also enter the IP adress of the host on the "Hostname" section
Been looking into zandronum
Is it similar?
no, using zandronum is easier
but for hosting you would still need to portforward
I have portfowarded in the past for an MC server
So thats all g
the default port is different, so look it up
when you install zandronum, you should also have DoomSeeker
Geez so much to do :/
which doomseeker is used for general hosting/joining, more intuitive and easier to set up
Ok so zandronum for mods and wads
Doomseeker for MP
Right?
yes
doomseeker is for the online playing, and you still can use it as a singleplayer launcher
🤔
Ill have to DL when i get home and see
tawny crane
go to settings tab
tawny crane
in the "Source ports/engines" define the route for chocolate doom.exe
in the IWADS section, define the route for doom2.wad
on the Add button each below the window

neat hemlock
ok
neat hemlock
tawny crane
ok, you should hit launch if your selected source port is chocolate doom

limpid dust
also happens in game
does anybody know what causes this blur in effect?
wasn't doing this before, and i haven't changed hardware
and i have an ssd and the loading times are way longer for no reason
nova ledge
I have such thing too, but it only happens in gallery.
tawny crane
i think its just the textures loading
nova ledge
Yes, it is
limpid dust
yeah i know but it happens to weapons and enemies as well, and it wasn't a problem before. Loading also takes like 2 minutes even though previously it was like 25 seconds
and i haven't changed anything
lethal schooner
did you switch from openg to vulkan or the other way around?
limpid dust
well i tried to switch back and forth but it didn't change anything
which one schould i pick then?
currently on vulkan
lethal schooner
I use vulkan too and I dont find it to be that big of an issue tbh, but opengl seems to be slightly faster
limpid dust
hm i'll check it out
switching to OpenGL didn't seem to help
if anything it took longer to load and it added another loading screen
and a big drop in fps
simple slate
@limpid dust That effect is the so called "texture pop-in".
The time it takes to actually load the textures on that model is a result of your hardware not being fast enough for it.
lethal schooner
I wouldnt know how to stop it then, its just loading in the techtures it has to do that
simple slate
It's normal. Nothing to be worried about.
limpid dust
is there anyway to stop it because it wasn't there before
simple slate
If you want to mitigate it try to increase texture quality.
limpid dust
will do
simple slate
There is also an option for memory consumption in the advanced settings.
Put that on a higher level so it loads faster.
limpid dust
alright, i'll check it out. Currently checking file intergrity
tawny crane
at the expense of your memory card
limpid dust
what do you mean @tawny crane
limpid dust
yeah i know but the thing is
i didn't change anything at all in my pc
and i didn't change any settings
tawny crane
i think thats just the default memory consumption
limpid dust
perhaps
tawny crane
it happens in most games anyways
tawny crane
ive seen it in fall of cybertron, titanfall 2, and more
limpid dust
hm
simple slate
Yeah it's just because it has to load huge textures
limpid dust
oh ok
simple slate
And with huge we are talking about up to 128000 x 128000 pixels.
tawny crane
yeah. im actually surprised it even takes a second to load
with that kind of data, a minute seems more likely
storm wyvern
That's fucking huge
limpid dust
guys i figured it out
it was my 8TB external hard drive being a slow little fucker. So i put DOOM on my SSD because i play it a lot and now the load times are almost instant with no texture load in whatsoever.
simple slate
See?
simple slate
DOOM loads tons of data all the time
Minimum requirement should be a 7200 RPM hard drive or an SSD which works way better.
Wait
limpid dust
yeah i guess, it worked fine before but this works too
simple slate
You started the game from an external hard drive?
limpid dust
yeah and it worked perfectly
simple slate
Big no no.
limpid dust
i swear it worked perfect
simple slate
If it's plugged in via USB this can be a pretty big bottleneck.
simple slate
Well it worked but you had popins you may not even notice.
limpid dust
and they all load fine
simple slate
Sure but you should load games via M.2 PCIe or SATA3 .
nova ledge
USB 3 SS works up to 5 gigabit per second
simple slate
Jep.

https://www.ebay.nl/itm/383033135137
i use this thing

And 128k x 128k texture when uncompressed is 64 GB
limpid dust
it was for my xbox at first but i went on to get a game pc
i had gamepass so 8TB seemed reasonable
simple slate
You should put that hard drive right into your PC then.
Looking at this you have at least 10 % speed loss due to the nature of the USB standard itself.

Even cheapest cooling system would work

yeah that's true
but its fine as it is right now
it doesn't affect performance that much

A cooling system doesn't cost that much.
Get yourself some fans which are compatible with you mainboard, mount them properly and see how it goes.

yeah but if i am gonna do it i am doing it with tubes with water and such

scarlet lily
aight, so when i install project brutality+ udz base[and its gzdoom only file]+ hellonearthstartermap.wad+its own extra textures wad, the menu text in the options looks extremely yellow and hurts the eyes when i look at it
pls help
scarlet lily
only in zdl gzdoom and not lzdoom
pure niche
GZDoom crash when try start game in Eviternity
But version is 4.1.1
I'm not sure why
pure niche
Sorted, it was hardware render but Doom software render will crash
tawny crane
portforward #5029, that's the default for gzdoom
if you got ZDL, you should see a window like this (after of course setting up the source port and iwad), you click the up/down arrow circled in red, to show the multiplayer options
on your hostname/IP adress, you put your public IP adress if you are hosting, and game mode switched to coop, and you should define only the players that are gonna be in your game, if it is 2, then just 2 and no more
As for the player joining the match
it should be selected on the player section "joining" and also enter the IP adress of the host on the "Hostname" section```
@minor slate
check you are doing your stuff correctly from the beginning to see where is your problem
then if you click on multi settings, there should be this window, which i dont recommend moving anything except Net mode, in case you cant make it work
Net mode on Classic is Peer to Peer, which is recommended, and it is the default anyways if not specified
Client / server is the one that should try working better if classic doesnt do it, but lags for both
Well after getting all set, you hit Launch to host, and your client has to join by hitting launch after you
should try first by running with just doom 2 before mods to get it working
but when you are succesful and try hosting with mods, there will be times where the player joining can get a black screen, so just close gzdoom and try rehosting after that
minor slate
his says "contacting host" mine says "waiting for players" indefinitely
could it be where i just did a fresh install of windows and have gzdoom on 2 drives, old and new? it's trying to pull from new
it works single player. i tried to see if my antivirus caused the issue but apparently not
tawny crane
what about the firewall on gzdoom
minor slate
not sure
idk if i even have one really
should i be trying to pull from my new drive or old
tawny crane
are you trying to pull this on windows you say?
minor slate
it works for both of us single player now
yea
i have a new drive in c: now, where my old used to be . its now in E:
so ive had to reinstall and redo some stuff, change the config name for my .ini
tawny crane
i see, but you have to check if your firewall has gzdoom enabled uuh, hang on
you know how to access firewall options?
minor slate
no
idk if i even have one
so it works for both of us on single player now that we freshly installed ZDL, its just stuck on "waiting for players" for me and "contacting host" for him
tawny crane
windows by default has a firewall so, you do, but anyways, access thru it by the Control Panel, and there should be some "Firewall by Widnows Defender " option or something like that
minor slate
it was on to stop all connections
tawny crane
could have been that
minor slate
i think its both of our firewalls
tawny crane
you have to allow it to connect, both private/public
minor slate
mine was on, his just popped up and said it blocked some features
o its public and private?
its not connected to private networks
tawny crane
more importantly on the host, but if it doesnt work, the one joining may try doing it too
minor slate
its still doing it it seems
minor slate
eys
same one we used before
command line is -host 2 and -port ####
we are using the same port
game mode co op, players 2, in the hostname ip is my IP
multi settings has enable clicked
should his be -join IP or -joining IP
minor slate
then -port (same number here)
is it maybe not open anymore? the port
we made up a number and it worked last time
tawny crane
ok, is your local IP dynamic or static?
minor slate
static i believe
same number we used last time still shows on whatismyip.com
he tried hosting as well
its exactly what we did last time that worked, so weird
tawny crane
not your public, your local IP
tawny crane
well afaik, you have to portforward your ipv4 direction on your router since you wont be able with the public one if you try, (at least from my testing)
minor slate
we made up a port number too
tawny crane
hold on a second and type cmd on the windows bar
minor slate
got the local ipv4 from the command prompt, still nogo
tawny crane
ah
minor slate
ipv4 address
tawny crane
i see, then hmmm fuck this is weird

it all worked last time
we thought it would be my new windows and setup but it works for each of us single player

I keep getting black lines in doom 2016, how to fix this?
It usually appears at dark area

I think I've seen this in a steam thread before, try turning off ambient occlusion and see if that helps.
dusk yacht
@scenic kite how to turn it off? through nvidia control panel?
scenic kite
No, in the graphical settings.
dusk yacht
Directional Occlusion Quality?
scenic kite
Yes.
scenic kite
Ok then, so it isn't that same issue then.
dusk yacht
I feel like I'm the first person who get this bug
scenic kite
Yeah, I haven't seen this before.
dusk yacht
When I move my mouse, this black lines near shadow appears, then after I stop moving my mouse, it disappears
scenic kite
This is definitely an odd case. I haven't found anything related to this issue so my options of recommendation are limited. The only thing I can tell you is to either:
- Verify integrity of game files. (there is a possibility that some files weren't downloaded correctly when you downloaded the game, to do this, if you are playing a steam copy of Doom, go to your game, right click > properties > local files > verify integrity of game files.)
- See if there are any new graphics drivers available for your graphics card. (sometimes drivers can cause a problem for some games and a fresh new driver install can possibly fix it.)
dusk yacht
I doubt the first step work
The second step well, I have already done it
Still not work
There's windows update tho, maybe this will work
not work
scenic kite
Is this the only game that you have this issue in?
dusk yacht
I think that when I play minecraft with seus shader on, it also had this problem, but I don't pay attention at it that much
Verified game, still not work
I think it is disappear
The later level
scenic kite
Huh, I wonder if it's a slight quirk with your graphics card since this happened in two instances. What graphics card do you have?
dusk yacht
RTX 2060, i7 idk
i7 8700
16gb ram
Well I have no idea but the problem seems disappear
scenic kite
Hmm, I also have an RTX card too so maybe the card isn't the problem (at least the RTX lineup itself isn't the problem, it could possibly still have something with it). If it went away that's good. That's an interesting problem that I haven't seen before, maybe someone with more insight than me can possibly figure out what that problem is, but all and all I'm glad it, at least, has disappeared for you.
dusk yacht
I have done these:
-My monitor has FreeSync option, so I turned it on
-I enabled chromatic aberration on
Maybe one of them fix the problem
@scenic kite btw should I turn off vsync
scenic kite
Since you have freesync enabled, you don't need vsync on since freesync will sync your refresh rate for you and reduce screen tearing (if you are using the display port).
dusk yacht
well I will enable both for no reason
simple slate
If you have the option In-Game use Adaptive Sync.
That is the current tech which will work together with FreeSync.
scenic kite
^
simple slate
Turning on V-Sync is only advised if you have enough power to hold the FPS to match your monitor refresh rate.
This is where Adaptive Sync comes in: It disables V-Sync if you are below that refresh rate and turns it back on once the FPS matches it.

Okay so my computer is kind of a wild card with Bethesda games, since I got RAGE 2 on steam, had to refund, and one day I read that maybe I should’ve used the Bethesda launcher, and I tried with Youngblood, and my CPU isn’t actually the one in it’s minimum specs but it surprisingly ran at a 60 fps, which was something I haven’t seen in a while.
So if I buy Doom Eternal on the Bethesda launcher and try to play it, would it work on my setup? Everything besides the CPU is good.
simple slate
How about you start posting your specifications.
copper spade
Can’t at the top of my head since I’m on a school bus but Ik I got a 750 watt power supply, AMD Radeon 580x, and I think an FC 4350...?
Honestly my cpu is just random with the newest games, so I’m just wondering if I could run it
simple slate
Then I would recommend you to upgrade your CPU because the new id Tech 7 engine will make very efficient use of all your cores.
simple slate
Good
copper spade
I’m just wondering with my current specs
simple slate
I will get myself a Ryzen 7 3800X for my new rig
copper spade
Since apparently it can run Youngblood perfectly smooth with my below specs cpu
simple slate
I initially had in mind of buying a Ryzen 9 but in my opinion these cores are over the top for gaming right now.
copper spade
So I could in theory run Doom Eternal
simple slate
Youngblood doesn't utilize the same version of id Tech than DOOM Eternal.
copper spade
man makes me wanna get the stuff right now so I can play it
simple slate
I personally recommend upgrading parts every 3 or 4 years depending on how much the "gap" really is.
Looking at the current hardware however you can get very durable things which may even last longer.
copper spade
Well I had my GPU since November, and that thing’s story is a bit of an acid trip
And I got my power supply at the start of November which the whole month was when it went down
tawny crane
Don't know where to ask this, so I'm doing it here. How much more advanced is Eternal's engine over 2016's? If I can get by on around low/mid setting on 2016 will I be able to play eternal? Or will I have to buy it on Xbox?
nova ledge
We won't know for sure before it releases. I guess they will launch demo. My guess is that if you could run 2016 on mid setting, you probably gonna get Eternal to run
Anyone familiar with TP-Link routers? I remember you could do a lot of things like port forward and MAC address change. Or change IP of router. I have TL-WA801ND with firmware v3
And it don't allow a shit.
Most castrated settings menu I ever seen. Is it thing in new firmware and I should instal v1? Or vice versa, I should get v5 firmware? Or any way to unlock advanced settings?
I don't think anyone can help me tho
I probably just return this piece of junk to store
nova ledge
Also, I would appreciate if someone with Linux and skilled hands could get binwalk, install it and extract firmware files so I could get mine root password hash and bruteforce it. I don't like that my router has ssh on and I can't even turn it on, and only way to get password is this way

@simple slate I would not suggest getting Ryzen 3800X tbh. As the only difference is that it is clocked higher out of the box than 3700X. So that means you can get 3700X and get same performance as 3800X by manually overclocking it.

Odd question, and apologies if it's been asked before, but does anyone know the best way to stream SIGIL on Discord? For some reason launching gzdoom doesn't give me the option to stream on Discord.
I can launch gzdoom through Steam, but without the option to play SIGIL (obviously).
Does anyone have a fix?

You have to add it as a game first on discord, if you go in settings, game activity, 'not seeing your game? add it' while you have it open, you can choose the gzdoom window as a game
Should let you stream it then

oh ok that makes total sense. Do I have to do that every time I open gzdoom, or should it "remember" the program?

^ hello there btw
delaying it just for the sake of releasing together is pretty obnoxious imo
tawny crane
It just helps boost the sales of Doom Eternal, they care significantly more about Doom Eternal sales than Doom 64's sales, so to them its worth the delay. Also doom 1 and 2 had a ton of problems, so this gives them time to polish up doom 64, but the delay is mostly for DE sales

Hello
I need help with the Spider-Demon in doom 2016. It seems like I can't get it under 45% health. I already tried the usual stuff.
Try to hit his face/brain,
Avoid the laser by jumping/ducking
Avoid the bombs/plasma gun by running
Avoid the fog by jumping on the pillars
If anyone has tips like which gun works best or stuff like that plz ping me.
tribal maple
Can't get it under 45% as in you die by then, or it won't take damage?
As for weapons, hit it with a BFG then use combos of your beefiest weapons, like gauss / rocket / super shotgun
north eagle
or use the bfg weapon wheel glitch if you like extra cheese
tribal maple
Mobile turret is pretty good when it's stunned with BFG, but that's also nice to use when on the pillars
vital garden
Destroying the pillars will give you health and ammo I believe

tribal maple
They give you ammo? I never noticed that
tribal maple
Health yes, but that's more for when you're low health really. Worst thing to do is take out pillars then not have any to jump on
tawny crane
@north eagle what glich?
tribal maple
Better to use the siphon grenade with equipment power rune
north eagle
oh, shoot a bfg over it and right when it starts taking damage, hold the weapon wheel open @tawny crane
tribal maple
I'd leave that as a last resort if you really can't beat it though
north eagle

tribal maple
It's more satisfying to win normally
tawny crane
Yeah... It bad enough that I need to ask bcs I die all the time. @tribal maple
tribal maple
How many BFG shots do you have left when you start the fight?
tawny crane
Uhmm... One.
Should I just restart the mission to collect more amo?
Or isn't it worth it.
tribal maple
Well it could be, but if you start with one, there are two in the arena anyway
So if you make sure your BFG hits, then use gauss / rocket or rock / super shotgun combos or whatever, you should do a pretty good amount of damage
tawny crane
Hmmm. Okay. I'll try that. Maybe I'm just a bit rusty too.
tribal maple
If you have the equipment power rune, it works quite well with siphon grenades to bring back a bit of health every time you throw one at it
It's not much, but it helps
Especially when you're on the pillars, you have time to do that without worrying about being hit
tawny crane
What are siphon grenades? (I'm playing it in German)
tribal maple
If you look on your HUD next just left to where the weapon and ammo count is at the bottom right, there should be three icons
The grenade one, the circular one (which is the hologram), and the other one is siphon
If you cycle through your equipment, until that one is highlighted, you can use it when you throw equipment
I thought that would load an image preview, but it doesn't
Anyway, where you see the grenade icon with the 2 next to it at the bottom right on that image, the siphon is the one two to the left of that
You'll know when you have it selected, since if you throw it, it'll come up as a big red sphere where it hits
And if you hit the Spider Mastermind with it, your health will increase if you're not as max health
tawny crane
Oh. Yeah. Now I have it. Thanks.
I just noticed that when I hit it with the bfg it drops health. So I should use that as a way to get health back, just like the siphons.
tribal maple
Yeah, it's quite nice
tawny crane
I'm trying to find out which gun does what amount of damage (to find out in which order I should use them and what gun I should use the ammo for).
But I can't find out what does more damage the chaingun or the heavy assault rifle with explosive ammo.
nova ledge
You might find all values on wiki
tawny crane
I've tried that. Sadly they don't list the damage for the mods and so.
But anyhow, I finally killed it! And yes @tribal maple that feels amazing^^
tribal maple
Nice!
Chaingun would probably do more damage than the assault rifle missiles, but I don't know for sure
Mobile turret on the chaingun is very good against the bosses though
tawny crane
Well with your help. These grenades saved my ass
tribal maple
yeah they're very nice, as you can keep getting a bit of health back
tawny crane
And now. Everything on the next difficulty^^
Or on the switch.
Again, thank you. You really saved my day!
north eagle
you are welcome duder!

Is there a way to play Doom 2016 via bootcamp windows.
Well here's the thing, Bought the game again and for some odd reasons i can't install it.
dusky shore
ok so now i have a couple questions. first, is the doom 64 that comes with the eternal preorder the same thing as the original doom for 360?
lethal schooner
Doom 64 is the doom game for the nintendo 64, the one you're talking about is probably the classic one released in 1993. They're different games
dusky shore
i see. ok second question: doom 3 bfg edition comes with doom 1 and 2. do 1 and 2 have local/splitscreen multiplayer in the bfg edition?
i guess im asking if i should get bfg edition for the 360 since it has all three original ga,e that are backwards compatible and will work on my xbox one or do i just get 1, 2, and 3 seperate
lethal schooner
Hm thats a tough one, I'm pretty sure bfg edition has splitscreen for 1 and 2 though yeah
Just be aware that the bfg edition 1 and 2 are different from the classic ones, they're censored and have some other few differences
lethal schooner
No problemo

Hi
I have a problem with Doom 4. To be specific with the SnapMap mode.
As soon as it finishes loading and I'm in the SnapMap menu, my pc freezes. Not only the game the complete pc. The windows-key dosnt work, neither ALT+F4
My current setup:
CPU: Ryzen 7 2800x
GPU: R7 370 4g
MB: MSI gaming pro Carbon b350
RAM: Corsair vengeance lpx 2x8 GB 2400 MHz
ROM: some Samsung SSD
ROM 2: 2 tb HDD
OS: Win 10 Pro 1809
I already checked the game with Steam but it found nothing.
visual gale
was there ever any fix or solution to why Doom 2016 just kept freezing up?
I mean, it ran like utter arse when it came out for me, so I decided to give it another chance last night, runs smooth and nice high FPS, played it for a good 5 hours maybe without a problem, now I get up today, load it up, just constant freezing up.
