Thread: All you need to know bout c2doom

Installing

1. You have to have a compatible S60 or S80 phone. Tested phones are Nokia models NGage, NGage QD, 6620, 9500, 9300, 7610, 6681, 6680, 6630, 6600 and 6260. However all S80 phones and S60 phones that have at least 16MB RAM, S60 1.2 or S60 2.x should work.

[9210x, 7650 and 3650 are not supported.]

2- Download either a S60 or S80 C2Doom installation packet, from Downloads and install it into your phone. You can copy installation packet into your phone and select file from there, or use PC suite application for installing. For further information, please refer your phone manual. After you have installed the Doom, a Doom application icon appears in the phone. The exact location depends on your phone model and decisions you might be done during installation process, but usually you can find it from application shell in S60 phone or from S80 Desk.

3- You have to have a WAD file. There are several WAD files, however the C2Doom engine is tested only with some official ones.

4- Copy the WAD file into phone or memory card by using memory card reader, PC suite, IR file transfer, bluetooth or any other method you prefer. It can be stored anywhere in the phone; it can be in any file folder or in messaging folder, in Memory card or in internal memory. When you open C2Doom application, it browses trough your phone memory and locates WAD files. Once one is found a confirmation is asked if that WAD file is intented to be used. It is possible to have several WAD files in the phone and by let UI seek another WAD file user can select which one is used.The another WAD file can selected afterwards by choosing "Advanced" | "Reset WAD file" from Options menu. That, among other things are detailed in the Options. Now you can start running C2Doom by choosing "Single Player". For multiplayer issues, please see Multiplaying

Selected savegame can be send to another phone as a message and loaded in another phone. The savegames can be loaded only if current game uses same WAD file. If user has multiple WAD files, then current WAD file might be changed before certain savegames can be sent or loaded.

Advanced | Set Data path Let user define where savegames are stored. Let user to change a root folder where each WAD file has its own savegame folder. Since savegame files may have conflicting names, they are stored in automatically generated unique named folders.

Advanced | Set Key mappings Let user redefine key actions. A KeyMap Util dialog is opened. "New" creates a new mapping. Mapping is created pressing first a target key and then a source which functionality is copied. Displayed values are key scancodes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

MultiPlayer

The C2Doom supports multiplayer game with up to four players. The gaming modes are, as in original Doom, Co-operative and Deathmatch. In Co-operative mode players play together against monsters and in Deathmatch players are against each others and monsters. Each player must select a same game mode. After selection it is asked if player acts as a server or client: a first player selects to start a server, and then others connects as clients.


Note
It is important that all players have selected same WAD file and same multiplayer mode.

After server player decides that all players are joined in the game, selecting "Start" will engage the game. Clients may leave the game, but if server exits the game ends. Multiplayer game works over bluetooth wireless radio and therefore players cannot be more further that ten meters from each others, otherwise connection closes. If there are many other bluetooth connections nearby, that may affect errors to bluetooth transmission and connection can even cut off by accident.

Savegames do not work in multiplayer game.

To play any of the games just rename the file to "doom2.wad" coz the engine just this way will recognise them.
AND u can have multiple wad files (included the "old" doom files) on the mob just need a simple trick, rename the wad extension to sumething else and BUM, the game won't see them any more! Keep multiple files and if u wan't to play something just rename to doom2.wad example and it'll run!

what a really cooooool topic i know that i am not a moderator but i think this should be sticky

Nice tuto . good work man

They dont work on 6680. It sucks.

I agree I have been looking all over the net for .wad files! I shall make this a sticky.

Thanks man for this great thread .

i don't know if this is normal but some games like half life don't work for me
note i hav :n-gage

I guess alot of them wont work as newer games like half life required more CPU + graphics power than Doom 1! Maybe the phone/c2doom isnt able to produce them.

Thanks nesh .

Sorry i dont think Half-life is compatible with 6600 or Ngage. The application closes as soon as you open the first door. HOwever it should work on the newer phones.

1- copying the "wad" file to your memory card E:/ .
2- I renamed the file to "doom2.wad"
3- Open c2Doom
4- Press Menu >> Advanced >> Reset WAD file
5- It will ask "Use This WAD file? E:\Doom2.wad"
6- Press Yes

NOTE: To play the normal DOOM version it is DOOM1.WAD. DOOM 3.WAD is the multiplayer version. So if you try to load it and choose single player you will get an error:
"Error: W_InitFiles: no files found"

If you still get an error try posting the error with what you have done exactly.

And thnx for the sticky
