It recommends… 8 GB of RAM and a GTX 780?! What?! Why?! Ahem. Processor: Intel Core i5-2400 | AMD Phenom II X6 1075T 3.0 GHz.Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system.Let’s take a look at what the devs recommend here, just because: No, it doesn’t come with bacon bits and shredded cheese. Yes, you can probably run it on a baked potato. What would we do without ’em? There are specs? Good ol’ explosive barrels that have been carefully placed in rooms. I would be surprised if someone didn’t find a way to re-enable it though, as the better frame rate and extra levels definitely make this the superior version. For whatever reason, this option was entirely removed and I’m not really sure why. Sure, you don’t need to be able to look up and down in Doom, but I strongly prefer it. Then there’s the fact that EX allowed for mouse look to be used. The EX version would fluctuate between 50 and 60 FPS randomly, while this official version of Doom 64 keeps a totally steady frame rate. This version, for whatever reason, runs much more smoothly for me on my PC. That makes them official fan mod levels, since the original developers behind the game didn’t take part in this.Īside from that, there are two differences that stand out above the others. The most obvious difference is that this version contains some all-new levels that take place after the original game’s story. The menus look very similar and this version is clearly running the same game, but they’re absolutely not identical. Going into the install folder will greet you with a Doom 64 WAD and an application that both use the same icons as the EX release. Yes, Doom 64 is basically just SVKaiser’s EX port with some minor differences. After making multiple high-quality PC ports of classic games himself, he was eventually hired by Nightdive Studios - the developer of this version of Doom 64 being discussed today. That version of the game runs on the Kex engine, which was created by Samuel “SVKaiser” Villarreal. It essentially required an actual cartridge of the game to create the WAD needed to run the game. It was a fun surprise when the unofficial Doom 64 EXwas released several years ago.
