PrBoom: A new port doom to PS3 (release 2)

**Robo Hobo** · 04-27-2011,10:32 PM

Here is the third release of PrBoom for the playstation 3. Stuttering that would occur when loading new sections of levels is fixed, as well as selecting the chainsaw and super shotgun with the dpad. The loader will now copy PWADs and dehacked patches from USB devices along with IWADs, and a simple menu can be accessed with triangle to select them for custom games.

Any comments on how you would like to see this improved are welcomed.

Changes in Release 3:
Fix random stalls during game play while loading level data
Fix Chainsaw and Super Shot Gun not being selected with weapon cycling
WAD installer now installs PWADs as well as IWADs
Extra options can be selected for a game by pressing triangle on the loading screen

Changes in Release 2:
Update core to prboom-plus 2.5.0.8
Support Widescreen aspects
Fix control mapping
Allow both sticks to be mapped as buttons
Allow the movement keys to be remapped
Fix high pitched audio
Fix button repeat speed in menus
Loader can now copy WAD files off of USB devices

Note that these packages are in the 20 MB area due to including the data necessary to play music.
prboom-plus-2.5.08-ps3-r3:
Custom Firmware
3.41 Dongle

awesome robo. never expect anything you put out but it's always great when you put something out. To anyone who's tested this,

-would you say the previous doom port by xttl is obsolete now
-would you even go as far as deleting it from existence
