.xo	Bundle – Doom (activity).xo

Doom is a first person shooter game with content that is probably not suitable for young children, but is great fun for older ones.

Freedoom is a free software clone of Doom, based on improvements made to Doom's 3d engine with new maps and monsters.

Video of Doom played on the OLPC

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)

-== How to install Doom bundle ==
-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.
 == Video of Doom played on the OLPC==
 <youtube>9MhQ5jIj5aw</youtube>
-== 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
- prboom
