Source

PSP Legacy is a source port of Doom Lagacy for the Sony PlayStation Portable, originally created by Kgsws.

Doom Legacy is a source port of the original DOOM for PC. It enhances Doom with things like TCP/IP networking, OpenGL renderer and Heretic support.

This port was initially based on Doom Legacy 1.42, but has since had many bugs fixed and most Legacy features added, such as hardware accelerated rendering.

Features

  • All features from Legacy 1.42:
    • 3D floors.
    • Deep water.
    • Boom support.
    • DeHackEd patches support.
    • Split-screen.
    • Chasecam.
    • Translucency on sprites and walls.
    • Freelook.
    • Volumetric fog in software mode.
    • 3D lights in software mode.
    • Fragglescript.
    • Colored lighting.
    • Console.
    • Jumping.
  • Support for Doom, Doom II, Heretic.
  • Hardware acceleration through LibGU, an API which has similarities with OpenGL based on Doom Legacy's OpenGL renderer.
  • Music is playable as MP3s.
  • Ad-hoc multiplayer support for up to 4 players.
  • Ability to use up to 5 PWAD or DeHackEd files at one time.

Installation

Both downloads contain the following versions:

  • PSP Lagacy R4 by Sunray.
  • PSP Legacy R4.01 by Six-Shoota.

The optional music bundle also contains:

  • Music Pack by Duke.
  • Music Pack by Antonio Aiello (no Heretic).

User guide

IWAD names:

  • Doom 1 (demo) - doom1.wad.
  • Doom 1 - doom.wad.
  • Doom 1 (Ultimate) - doomu.wad.
  • Doom 2 - doom2.wad.
  • Doom 2 (Plutonia) - plutonia.wad.
  • Doom 2 (TNT) - tnt.wad.
  • Heretic - heretic.wad.

Notes:

  • This also works with FreeDoom (rename to one of the above names).
  • If you want to play multiplayer, use menu.
  • If you want 333MHz in multiplayer, you must switch it first, and then activate multiplayer.
  • 480x272 render is not too fast, it is better on 333MHz.

Music Pack

The music support is for MP3s and you are free to add whatever music you like to the game now. However, if enjoy the original music, you can use the music pack with the original OPL synth tunes from DOS. It's a little on the large side, but if space is an issue for you, you can always grab an MP3 converter and lower the bitrate (currently 192kbps).

Compatibility

Tested on:

PSP 3000 with 5.03 GEN-A
PSP 1000 with 5.00 M33-6

Known issues

Standby will most likely crash the game (not related to code changes).

Some levels have rendering errors (holes in floors and walls), but these are also found in the PC version of DOOM Legacy and has nothing to do with this port.

Changelog

r4.01 (by Six-Shoota)

  • TNT Map30 stair bug fixed. The stairs now rise same as in the original.
  • TNT Map31 yellow key wad error detected and dynamically fixed. Now the player can finish the game, even on the original buggy TNT.
  • In Doom2 Map05, two doors to secret rooms would not work. If another door (1st of 4 doors on left) is opened first, then an extraneous tag 9 will move the floors of these two rooms like doors. Restored some tests that stopped the floors movement like the original, and the flawed Map05 is then playable.

r4 (by Sunray)

  • Fixed auto map rendering. Toggle with START button. You can zoom in by holding TRIANGLE and zoom out by holding SQUARE.
  • DOOM 1 - E3M1 no longer has clipped geometry and sprites in the beginning (bug in GU hardware renderer).
  • DOOM 2 - MAP01 no longer has invisible walls and flats (BSP precision issue).
  • Stick input is now analog and not digital. Added sensitivity controllers for both X and Y.
  • Increased the number of sound channels from 16 to 24.
  • Optimized sound mixing code.
