woof VS openhl

Check out Woof! to see a more conservative but still enhanced port of Doom, and imp it runs even smoother than GZDoom. The spirce port really can impact the feel of the game.

For classic doom you can use gzdoom and get the WADs in Steam. If you want to stick more to the original, use Woof!, but you need to compile it yourself or use something like the AUR.

PrBoom+, Crispy, Woff!, and others are more vanilla friendly, meaning that you get the same experience as the original clients.

Woof! is a source port from the same creator and worth checking out too: https://github.com/fabiangreffrath/woof It's crispy doom visual plus much more modern extensions to doom mod support (way less limits and much more custom behavior supported). This is a good video describing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aq44msZ3eO8

Worst case scenario is using split(1) to restrict to 100MB chunks. I do something similar to upload the Half-Life game data in my repo here. But this is a fairly unique scenario and for standard projects, it should still be unnecessary.

Also: If you enjoy Quake, you might also be interested in my Half-Life port here. This includes the game data and can be built in a few commands (after installing the correct dependencies).

I have recently put together a project here: https://github.com/osen/openhl
