It includes four modules with complete animation and so. Instead, the development team took advantage of advances in computer hardware since the release of the original game that allowed them to do more with their game engine by making much larger and more intricate levels. There were no major technological developments, graphical improvements, or substantial gameplay changes. But you don't need to use a port if you're fine with DOSBox overall (certainly use and play what you prefer and what works best for you). This is a demonstration of the obscure official Doom 2 screen saver released in 1995 for Windows 3.1. Doom II was not dramatically different from its predecessor. Particularly fulldouble= (if it's set to 'true' then change it to 'false') and aspect= (set it to 'true' and it will maintain the correct aspect ratio while in fullscreen).Īlternately, using a source port like GZDoom, you'll have less issues fighting with settings like this as they're built with more modern setups in mind. (edit) You may also want to change other settings in the configuration file(s) as needed. Just change 'original' to 'desktop' and save the file. Look for this line (these will be without the ' marks in your file): 'fullscreen=' which will probably have something like 'original' already set in it after the =.

(Though you do mention 'first episode', so that's also a clear tip off)Īre you playing Ultimate Doom through DOSBox? Or are you using a source port like GZDoom or similar? If it's just DOSBox, then you'll likely want to look for and edit the configuration file (nf or nf, I think are the ones to look for).

I assume based on your profile that you're talking about The Ultimate Doom, since Doom 3: BFG shouldn't be having that issue.
