Compile Doom on Linux

doom_compile_linux.md

Anything on github?

The original Id software release is there, but no dos version because of a sound library issue. (Why not release dos source without sound?

This is still under development, try it out:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/prboom-plus/

Where can I checkout the source code? Don't want a tar.gz.

Shareware wad

http://www.doomarchive.com/download.asp?FileId=5583 and probably elsewhere.

Chocolate Doom

https://github.com/chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom.git

This looks better:

git clone https://github.com/chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom.git
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-mixer-dev libsdl2-net-dev
cd chocolate-doom
./autogen.sh
make
./src/chocolate-doom -iwad ../DOOM1.WAD

It goes full-screen.

The keyboard doesn't work except for the buttons used for moving the player- it isn't possible to quit!
Also not possible to save.

Also switching ctrl-alt-f1 to a terminal didn't work, the screen was just black.

So need to run in windowed mode, and how to fix the keyboard?
chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom#740

./src/chocolate-doom-setup 

Made the game windowed and told it not to own the mouse, which allows quitting, but still no keyboard support.

Get these errors:

The key you just pressed is not recognized by SDL. To help get this fixed, please report this to the SDL mailing list <sdl@libsdl.org> X11 KeyCode 29 (21), X11 KeySym 0x79 (y).

PrBoom+

sudo apt-get install prboom-plus

Need to remap restart level key, it is right near my cursor keys.

ZDoom

GZDoom is ZDoom with an opengl renderer, don't need that for now (is it more efficient?)

https://zdoom.org/wiki/Compile_ZDoom_on_Linux

sudo apt-get install libfluidsynth-dev libopenal-dev libsndfile1-dev libmpg123-dev
git clone https://github.com/rheit/zdoom.git
cd zdoom
git checkout 2.8.1

Also need for music

sudo apt-get install libgme-dev libwildmidi-dev

But it still doesn't play?
Changed Sound Options | MIDI Device to OPL Synth Emulation, now it works.

Github issues are disabled?

Ultimate Doom from GOG on Linux

$2.39 on sale.

Linux install

wine setup_the_ultimate_doom_2.0.0.3.exe

It runs a bit then says it has errors but continues on.
Check ~/.wine/drive_c/GOG Games/DOOM and DOOM.WAD is in it
the md5sum is c4fe9fd920207691a9f493668e0a2083 which matches https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Doom_files

Next copy DOOM.WAD to /usr/share/games/doom, launch zdoom

Doom 2 from GOG

Similar install messages like Runtime Error (at 69:445): and then Runtime Error (at 196:800): Invalid Opcode then Runtime Error (at 196:807): Out of Global Vars range., -> just press OK, then exit at the end (not Launch).

sudo cp ~/.wine/drive_c/GOG\ Games/DOOM\ 2/doom2/DOOM2.WAD /usr/share/games/doom/

There are also a bunch of WAD files in ~/.wine/drive_c/GOG Games/DOOM 2/master/wads/

Final Doom

Haven't tried it yet.

Ubuntu 14.04

building master branch on Ubuntu 14.04

Was able to do this shortly before discovering I should be using the stable branch, which does compile on the version of gcc that comes with 14.04- c++14 is needed to build master without all the changes outlined below I had to make.

need wxwidgets, fluidsynth

sudo apt-get install libwxbase3.0-dev libfluidsynth-dev

Can't get libjack-dev for fluidsynth

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

 libjack-dev : Depends: libjack0 (= 1:0.121.3+20120418git75e3e20b-2.1ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

sudo apt-get install libjack0

Have to remove

Nope

g++ (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3) 4.8.4

instead

CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING=-std=c++1y

Better go back to CMakeLists.txt isntead of editing output files:

# c++14 is required to compile
if(CMAKE_VERSION VERSION_LESS 3.1)
  add_compile_options(-std=c++1y)

But that doesn't fix enum issue.

set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++1y")

Still no make_unique in 1y

And it is finished... but there is a stable branch that maybe could avoid all this:

Map Editing

using shareware doom1.wad

need a bsp compiler? Not for zdoom

Have you tried Odamex? https://github.com/odamex/odamex

https://github.com/id-Software/DOOM

Chocolate Doom

This looks better:

git clone https://github.com/chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom.git

Looking to compile DOOM on a Wii running Debian, Chocolate DOOM doesn't support PowerPC
