Could Doom be ported to the Neo Geo?
>>12608091MVG please go away
666 doalrrinos edishion?
>>12608091Not PC perfect at allDoom is very CPU heavy What made Neo geo great is it's GPU and gigantic rom cartridge The NEO Geo CPU is pretty underpowered even for an arcade board of 1990,it use the same CPU as the Genesis but overclocked
It was ported to weaker hardware.
>>12608091Vanilla Neo Geo? No.Doom requires lots of 32-bit calculations. It was tailor made for 486 CPUs which are far more advanced than the 1970s MC68000 CPU that Neo Geo has.Additional chip? Probably yes, but in case of these chips, questions like OP make no sense.
Could Doom be ported to the SNES?
>>12608125no, it requires an extra chip to run a still extremely downgraded version
certainly not as-is, idk how you'd even do it.neo-geo's cpu isn't anything special (12MHz 68k). it also has a pretty boring 64k of main ram and doesn't even have DMA.what neo-geo has was fuckhuge cartridges (not just in physical size) and a graphics chip that could handle as many sprites as you could want, even backgrounds are just made of spritesdoom doesn't use sprites, it's an entirely software-rendered engine, as it is it'd run like a slideshow, and that's assuming you can even run it with so little work ram (can't really compare memory requirements directly since PC games practically needed levels loaded into memory, which cartridge games don't need to do, still doom has a lot more variables than your typical arcade game)
probably one of those meme ports that arent even ports they just look like doom
>>12608125not a port
>>12608095/thread
Doesn't Neo Turf Masters use some sort of pseudo-3D rendering?
>>12608091It could be ported to neogeo but we're on a subject initiated by MVG, who is a bit of a dullard and a wanker. Ideally what you want to do is lots of cheating by rendering various surfaces as tilemaps. since neogeo can have everything as a sprite, you can separate out the surfaces (walls, floor, ceiling etc). to repeat as often as you like and use sprite scaling to change the perspective as you walk. same thing applied to walls, doors and other 3d objects. you only need part of the animation for a 360 degree rotation. the rest you can cheat using animations, sprite scaling and line scrolling. The second solution is to have a custom DSP on the cart that draws 3d objects and can spit out neogeo tiles (superfx like)

Could Doom be ported to the Neo Geo Pocket Color?
>>12608386Sure, Doom RPG
Could Doom be ported to Doom?
>>12608387If I hack into the Matrix and spawn a General Motors Geo for Thomas Anderson, could Doom be ported to Neo's Geo?
>>12608390
>>12608395heh
>>12608390yes, someone has already done thathttps://youtu.be/c6hnQ1RKhbo
>>12608487i like how MVG calls doom's code "elegant", while doom hackers call it a mess
>>12608091>Could X be Y to Z?Tranny Smith gotta Tranny Smith.
>>12608091Yes. The same way it was ported to the SNES: via an enhancement chip in the cartridge.
>>12608542also known as "no"
>>12608582but also yes
Now we has not even l and r trickers and broughted the gaem for hundreds of shekels?
>>12608126>no, it requires an extra chipMany SNES games (and not just this one) used enhancement chips. They're still SNES games regardless.Maybe someone with more technical knowledge than I do could explain why I'm wrong, but seeing that the Neo Geo is also a cartridge based system I don't see why similar enhancement chips couldn't be put into the cartridges to make DOOM work on that system also.But even if it can't for some sort of reason, the stock Neo Geo hardware is much more powerful than a stock SNES. Maybe not as powerful as an SNES with enhancement chips, but considering that watered down ports of DOOM have been made to run on graphic calculators and printer controllers and things like that, I see no reason the Neo Geo even without enhancement chips couldn't be made to run some really cut down version of it.
>>12608091>Could Doom be ported to the Neo Geo?Could Doom be ported to a Tiger LCD handheld?
>>12608768Could Doom be ported to a live tiger?
You could probably program a pseudo-3d FPS engine tailored to the Neo Geo’s capabilities and then adapt Doom’s assets to fit in it, but that’s not really Doom anymore.
>>12608763Historically enhancement chips were quite limited because of the price so they did something like math or scaling. Today people just stuff in a modern general CPU in a cart that does all the heavy lifting. You could literary stream GTA6 to NES. It's not really a NES game at that point.>but considering that watered down ports of DOOM have been made to run on graphic calculators and printer controllersNot really, it's a meme. They are Doom in the name only, more like cut down Wolfenstein,
>>12608091Youtube and gaming are the worst duo ever made
>>12609306Gaming and social media in general are the worst combination. Remember where you are.
>>12608164>doom doesnt use spritesarent all of the enemies sprites?
>>12609346No.
>>12608395yes.
>>12608454could Super Turbo Turkey Puncher 3 be ported to VMU?
can you run doom on /vr/
>>12608091A cut down version like Dread on Amiga, possibly.
>>12609417If I amputate the part of Dio Brando's leg between his shin and thigh, could Doom be ported to the Knee o' Dio?
>>12608176Definitely a port.
>>12609429Amiga at least has a planar framebuffer (not ideal for Doom, which is designed for a packed a.k.a "chunky" framebuffer). NeoGeo doesn't even have that. It's impossible without an enhancement chip pretending to be C ROM (sprite data).
>>12609574yea, neo-geo's cpu can't write to video memory at all.maybe it could do something like what playstation doom did, playstation doom renders the environment much like the pc version, only instead of drawing columns and rows a pixel at a time to a framebuffer, it draws the columns/rows as 1px wide quads for the GTE to render. could potentially do the same with neo-geo sprites... maybe. the resolution would be limited since the neo-geo can only do 96 sprites per scanline, not 320, even with a reduction in resolution it'd be a ton of work for a 12MHz 68000, not only is it nearly 3x slower in clock speed, but the ALUs and memory bus are all 16bit compared to the playstation's 32bit
>>12608117This is probably the most retarded thing I've seen all day.
>>12608095This. Hate that washed up faggot.
>>12609574Neo Geo can scale down sprite and has a ton of fast access graphics data capacity. I'm sure a quirky version of Doom could work, somehow, with a lot of ingenuity.
>>12609437how many bits?
Could Doom be ported to the FM Towns Marty?
>MVG fuck off dude
>>12608203I don't think so:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4f1-7c6WX10
>>12608203It uses static screens with some scrolling, sprite scalling and warping. The golfer doesn't move at all. There are some pseudo 3D game on Neo Geo, like The Super Spy or Riding Hero, but first one is mostly 2D with sone very awkward 3D level transitions and the other is a very basic Hang-On clone. Neo Geo is a sysytem without any polygonal capabilities, so the only way to simulate depth is to use sprite scaling, which is a big limitation.
has doom ever been faithfully reproduced on a system older than itself? i don't count the snes version since that has a hard requirement on the superfx2, which while i don't know when that chip was made, no game older than 1995 used it.i think the only time it has was, surprisingly, was the atari jaguar version. the jaguar came out a couple WEEKS before doom did, and it got a pretty decent port. practically it's the same age however and i want to know about older systems.i'm not sure there is, doom was a high end game, and even something as stupendously high end as neo-geo only a few years prior stands little a chance of running doom as-is
>>12612092The NEO-GEO is high-end, but its designed for a very different task. Comparing the power of two very different machines, is like trying to compare the power of a car and an elevator. A super-car is very powerful, but if you want to go up, that power is irrelevant.
