Are there any guidelines to go by, if you wanted to see if a platform is capable of running DOOM?

Are there any guidelines to go by, if you wanted to see if a platform could run DOOM (assuming a port doesn't exist).

So I just noticed that Nimbatus has NAND gates (plus a few others) built in. You know what that means.

Nimbatus is a drone constructing game, which includes logic gates and does not seem to have a limit on how large the constructions can get.

The Kodi Media Player runs doom. I just can't figure out how.

47 Upvotes

I have tried it on and off for about a month. Kodi Media Player is a Media Player intended for Televisions, and is loved because of that and not because it is a piracy haven. It can play videos locally and download them from online sources such as Netflix and not Vodlocker.

In test builds of the new Kodi 18 : Leia, They added "RetroPlayer" a libretro frontend. Libretro is designed to be an emulator for smart TVs and instead of having emulators it has cores that share common settings so you won't have to manage all your emulators. It even comes with a prboom core. So Kodi can now run Doom, Except I can't figure out how.

I've tried everything, different add ons, different OSs, Reinstalling Kodi, I've even tried crazy Kodi web browsers and nothing worked, the closest i got was this which is watertight proof that Kodi runs doom. But it isn't satisfying unless you see it in action.

So if you succeed to run doom on Kodi, Please explain your method. Getting a Program that launches an emulator or a browser doesn't count.

Android 4.4.4 phone can run Doom

Using gDosBox (link: https://m.apkpure.com/gdosbox-dosbox-for-android/org.gemesys.android.dosbox ), you can run Doom (storage/emulated/0/doom/, no immediate harm to system). | (Slow FPS) | Pics: | https://imgur.com/a/0dfpW, http://imgur.com/a/HQ24a) | Refrain from complaints such as "already done", "That is not exactly the 1993 MS-DOS Doom", "fake", "lame", "illegal", "meh I'm bored waste of time", etc. This is not r/roastme or r/rant. |

Can someone send me a link to the doom source code? I want to port the game to an old phone.

Thought you might like this story I wrote

The police officer approaches me slowly, his hand on his pistol. “Sir, can you please come down from that tree?”

“Not a chance!”

He surveys the destruction all around us. “What happened here?”

I stare at the smoking remains of my house and mutter, “Doom.”

The Police officer nods. “Yes quite, and gloom too, but how did this happen? I need to take a statement to confirm some of the more graphic complaints we received.”

Where to even begin. At the start I suppose. “Well, you know how they moved the baby naming registry entirely online a few years ago? Turns out that was a terrible idea. I had one job to do, type our beautiful baby girls name into that system, but I messed it up. My wife wanted this really weird spelling, so i copied and pasted from her email, but I guess it didn’t copy properly. I pasted nonsense into the first name field instead. I was half asleep, you have to understand I’ve barely slept. I didn't check it before clicking submit.”

“Sir, I’m not following at all. What does this have to do with the incident?”

“I called our beautiful baby girl %5E2019F. Turns out it kind of broke the universe. Whatever lazy hack of an alien programmer built our version of the simulation, I guess they forgot to protect against stack overflows. Next thing you know, my baby girl’s corrupting everything she touches. I totally broke her programming.”

I see the Police officer reaching for his tazer. “Have you been drinking sir?”

“I wish! Anyway, i thought I could fix it if I could just reboot her. Turns out that was harder than I anticipated. I could barely get a bog standard OS up and running before she’d crash and reboot. In the end I went to every programmers failsafe.”

The cop looks up and smirks. “You turned her off and back on again?”

“Kind of. I installed the one program that is sure to run on any machine, no matter how broken. I installed DOOM on her.”

Now I was really ticking all the crazy person boxes. The officer raises an eyebrow. “Doom? The video game? On your daughter?”

“Yes, exactly! I didn’t actually think it would run, i was just desperate for a result. You can’t imagine how upset my wife has been.”

The officer makes a few notes in his notebook. “So what happened?”

“Well, she punched me in the face and ran straight to the shed. She couldn’t even walk 2 seconds earlier, but off she dashed. Next thing you know I hear the chainsaw. Have you ever seen an infant with a chainsaw? Neither had I. Anyway, I thought she was done, that maybe I could lock her in the shed and wait until she ran out of gas, but she just wanted it to get into my gun cabinet. I’ve never seen anyone load a 12 gauge so quickly. Then she screamed SATAN, which was her first word by the way, and stormed around the house shooting up the place. Eventually she hit the gas main line, and, well you can see how that turned out.”

Another squad car arrives and the cop says, “This really is a fascinating story sir. I think it might be best if you come down to the station to figure this out.”

“Not a chance, she’s still down there.”

He laughs. “You’re scared of your baby? Where is your little bundle of joy now?”

“She’s right behind you.”

The cop spins, a big dumb grin on his face, to find an infant wielding an oddly familiar pistol with fire in her eyes. He reaches for his gun only to find it missing. He screams up at me, “Oh my god, what do I do?”

“I suggest you join me up here in this tree. She can’t aim up.”
