What is the best way to play DOOM on modern PCs? I see a lot of people say the Doomsday Engine, but I don't want to change too many things. Namely just 16:9 1090p and proper KBM controls.
zDOOM or gzDOOM should meet your criteria.
>>321627274
Do they play well with Steam?
>>321627636
If you mean by the .wads that come with the steam versions of DOOM/DOOM2/Final DOOM, then yeah they work perfectly. If you mean overlay, not sure about that functioning with either program.
>>321627274
What this guy said. You could also try out chocolate doom for a more classic experience but Zdoom is the one you should be going for.
>>321627274
This should work, but you'll might want to turn Doom strict compatability on if you don't want to change too much. You'll also need to spend time configuring things to get it accurate or don't. Having 1090p [sic] will also make the game easier in some respects like spectres which were invisible at 320x240 are clear as day. So right off the bat the games going to be different if you aren't using pixel doubling/quadrupling or a low resolution. The most classic way is chocolate doom. But otherwise, zdoom or gzdoom. Every version of Doom supporters proper KBM controls more or less including the original Doom.

Overlay and the like works with steam as a non steam game if that's what you mean.

gzdoom = most support, most modern, most graphics
zdoom = minus the graphics
chocolate doom = for pure nostalgia
Zandronum = online play
>>321626123
Chocolate. If you want doom but with better graphics, go play any shooter ever.
>>321629396
>go play any shooter ever.
That's actually the opposite of getting Doom since 99% of shooters aren't half as good as Doom.
Whatever you do don't play on a hardware accelerated port like gzDOOM. The unlimited colors totally fuck up the lighting and atmosphere

If you want to avoid any and all hassle just get Doom 3: BFG.
Has Doom 1 and 2.
If you want the most legit experience, the answer has already been posted in this thread.
>>321626123
in DOSbox, with keyboard only
>16:9 1090p and proper KBM controls
sounds like you don't actually want to play doom faⅿ

Filters are off now, fam.
People unironically recommending ZDoom for vanilla doom.
Shit couldn't be less accurate
Use Dosbox or Chocolate Doom.
>>321628721
Can you get gzdoom with zdoom sprites? Played zdoom way too long that gzdoom's sprites look unpleasant.
>>321632535
Oh shit, really senpai? Thanks desu
>>321630178
>try to be elitist
>16:9
nah
>>321632624
zdoom is fine with strict compatibility
>>321633010
Yes, I recommend going in and turning off the sprite filtering which is on by default (unfortunately).
I turn on all the dynamic lighting and particle effects. I sometimes play with Beautiful Doom but that's largely because it has a couple weapon tweaks I like. Smooth Doom is a lighter-weight version.
Zandronum
Are there any good 40k .wads that are playable in style of Brutal DOOM?
>>321626123
>1090p
Like already mentioned: ZDoom or GZDoom source ports.
Just disable texture filters, Y-axis mouse aiming, jumping/crouching, any shitty bloom effects, and ENABLE always run, font scaling at high resolutions, and classic map.
>>321634193
I was asking myself the same thing recently, couldn't find anything. Seems like a couple of projects that never went anywhere.
>>321632624
>I only play vanilla Doom
you should just go all the way and use a historically accurate computer to play the unpatched shareware version of doom as god intended.
Meanwhile I gotta update my nightly build of gzdoom because buckets of free and fun content require it. Doom is a platform for mappers and modders.
Choc doom or its fork doom retro, which has a better ui and more options IMO
>>321634406
>Y-axis mouse aiming
>jumping/crouching
Ignore this, everyone plays with freelook and a lot of modern port maps require jumping. Just keep don't use it on older maps.
Anyone played the latest BD? When did he gimp the assault rifle? Shit can't hit anything far away past single fire taps, makes larger WADs fucking awkward...
>>321634487
The guy asked to play vanilla doom, not mods.
>>321634557
I don't notice an issue, maybe ADS?try out Project Brutality
>>321634550
>everyone plays with freelook
only faggots play with freelook
don't use it or jumping etc unless the wad specifically requires it
>>321634550
you're a faggot if you use any of that shit.
I don't care about your mods, this is fucking DOOM.

Does Doom look good on HD monitors? The sprite art isn't something like a Capcom fighter but they don't look too bad. Not good enough for something like 1080p though.
Accuracy:

>>321636136
yes but don't play in 16:9 because it will stretch everything and look like shit
>>321636327
Looks fine to me
>>321634557
>>321635172
>>321635349
I don't even understand how that happened, fucking clover

The architecture certainly benefits from it.
