Hello,
Can someone tell me, what is the fastest, best Doom-port on Amiga?

It may depend on which processor your Amiga has. Doom Attack, I think, was
the fastest 030 version.


All the best,

DoomAttack makes 23-25 fps on my 68060/50MHz and ADoom makes 20 at
most. The latest version of ADoom on Aminet is wrongly compiled, thats
why the fps counter doesn't work.

Yep, I agree with these guys. ADOOM was the fastest on 68K and supports
all the music and effects. For PPC I use Z'Ha'Doom...........joe

For 68k ADoom or DoomAttack (depending on CPU), for PowerPC i prefer my own
one, ZhaDoom :)

Yes, doomattack can be faster on 030 machines but i prefer ADoom on 020
Amigas. I should better say, on "uae with 020emulation". I know, it´s a
little bit stupid to run doom on a pc with winuae, but i still love this
machine. After all, Adoom runs perfectly...with 5-8 fps :-) , but i think
on a real amiga1200 that will be run much faster.

Greetings,
Nurdogan

Without doubt the best version of Doom on the Amiga is Doom Attack. I
have tried the others (especially ADoom that everyone keeps going on
about) but they are nowhere near as good.

Doom Attack lets you use a Mouse properly (in my opinion it is
impossible to play a Doom game with the keys - you are either stupid
or are the best player in the world and neet it to be harder - and you
loose the whole feel of being there), you can also look up and down
which is brilliant and it lets you play the Aliens Total Conversion
which is brilliant. I actually had to get a version sent to me from
the author of Doom Attack so it worked fully (I don't know if it was
ever released) but the other versions wouldn't work properly with it.

Doom Attack is also the fastest for me (040/25)

If you like doom you must play the Aliens TC. It is the best thing
ever!

Paul.

Now that's cool. Not many people would do that... :-) It must be a
pretty fast PC to achieve nearly A1200 speed.

Doomattack is the fastest on 040/40 and has a very nice GUI for all kind
of settings (different c2p routines, keyboard configuration, midi
plugins, and many more)
With DoomAttack you can look up+down, sth. the original PC version
didn´t have.
But , as everything, this is a question of your personal taste.

Sorry I'm mistaken the fps counter works(perhaps an earlier version didn't).
You might say it is wrongly compiled anyway because it optimizes some things
it shouldn't.

ADoom is a bit faster than I wrote too but its slower than DoomAttack,
about 2.5 fps slower on timedemo demo3 AGA DblPAL/DblNTSC playing Doom II.

I agree totally. DoomAttack was the fastest on my 030/25MHz and is the
fastest on 060/50MHz.

This sums up to that DoomAttack is the fastest on all CPU's except
020 perhaps, but you can't play it on a real 020 anyway.
