I had never really paid much attention to Odamex. I presumed it was yet another port that tried to maintain the proper aspect ratio, while cleaning up the bugs left in the original ID Software code. I knew it had something to do with networking, but I didn't realize what all they'd done to this port!

Not only does it achieve these goals, and quite nicely I might add, but it also comes with a server to locate and join Death Match and Co-Op games, it features a nice GUI to connect to servers, choose maps packs, etc. Not to mention the server software itself!

On top of this it supports the FreeDOOM iWAD, all DOOM wads, and it also supports BOOM features, MBF, pWads, new sprites, sounds, Deh, Bex, high screen modes, as well as the optional Jump and Free Look features, amongst others!

I realize there is already a port of PrBOOM, but this certainly deserves a port over to MorphOS not to mention the other Amiga varients.

It's already on Windows, Linux, OSX, and even the Classic XBOX even!

Check it out!!! :)

It looks good!!

It is quite nice, and even received an update about a month ago which adds in classic ZDOOM support.

The only thing is that right now it suffers from a few bugs, especially in relation to mapping DOOM2 in Hexen mode, which is kind of making my own project a pain in the arse to work on, but things will pan out over time I'm sure, they seem quite dedicated.

In the mean time, I was going to start a bounty for this, but think I will wait till Odamex is a bit more stable in relation to using those ZDOOM features which my game needs.

In the mean time, if you run about any other OS out there, or own a hacked classic XBOX, I highly suggest checking this puppy out!
