== How to install Doom bundle ==

'''This file has been compromised by a hacker. It should be removed, but I don't see the original version.'''

Click [[media:Doom-1.xo|Doom-1.xo]] to download Doom. Then install as usual.

This is tested working in shipping builds, not tested with rainbow security enabled, yet.

== How to install manually ==

The following instructions need to be run from the [[Terminal]] activity. You will need a working internet connection on your OLPC for the install only. The instructions worked on a B4 OLPC laptop running Build 650.

* Open the terminal
* Switch to the root user, by typing:
su -
...and entering the root password, if requested to.
* Then type
yum install prboom
* The download is about 18MB, so will take a few minutes.
* When you get a prompt again, type:
exit
* To run Doom, type
prboom

== Changing Doom to run in full screen mode==

To run in full screen mode, type:
prboom -geom 1200x900

To permanently adjust Freedoom to run in full screen mode all the time, type:
cd /home/olpc/.prboom
nano prboom.cfg
This will open the freedoom configuration file in the [[nano]] text editor. Find the two lines in the file with the words:
width 640
height 480
And change them to:
width 1200
height 900
Then type '''ctrl-x''' to exit, and type '''y''' to save your changes.
Now, Freedoom should run in full screen mode when you type
prboom34

I installed this by downloading the .xo file and then I tried changing the graphics mode to OpenGL and now it won't start. I tried removing it and re-installing it, but it still won't start. I think my (poor choice of) settings were not reset when I did that.

Game settings (all activity settings actually) are found in your .sugar/ directory. Just remove the .sugar/default/org.laptop.doom directory to clear saved settings after you remove the activity, and then re-install.

Hint, don't try the OpenGL video mode.william direccion agraciada 2725 --149.126.44.166 13:34, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
