HPC Doom download:
http://home.freeuk.com/gamefreaks/pql/hpc_doom.htm

Doom1.wad download:
http://www.jimmysoftware.com/Softwar...E/download.asp



Doom only works in the root directory:
/HPC Doom/HPC Doom.exe
or
/Storage Card/HPC Doom/HPC Doom.exe

Dont change the folder name or install in an other folder.It will not work.



Try to configure the memory settings: 1 or 2 MB for Storage Memory and reminder memory for Program Memory.
Doom1.wad 3,6MB shareware version
Doom.wad 11,8MB registered version
Doom2.wad 13,9MB Doom 2

You cand find doom.wad at the PC version of Doom.

In a HP720 or HP728 we have no problems because we have 32 or 64MB of RAM. But in 680 or any device with 16Mb of RAM you need to adjust this parameters very well.And of course you have all the free RAM memory free. RAM is not to be used as hard disk installing programs on it. For this task use CF.

The HPC execute the Doom exe file and load the Wad file. In theory 4MB to run the game(with doom1.wad), the installed programs consume several MB more and the system only have 12MB really to work.If we use the Doom.wad(11,8MB) then you have to adjust memory settings with minimal of Storage Memory, it can be less of a MB. I tested it on my 680. Only heavy wads with a lot of MB as 007,AlienvsPredator,etc can´t be loaded.The limit to load a wad file is about 14MB.


If you have installed the registered version then you can load others wad as Plutonia,TnT,...
To run these wads files put only one of theirs at the HPC Doom folder. HPC Doom will load it.If you want to play another then you have to change for the new wad file. Or add the command -file at the RUN console as this form:


If your HPC shows a rare screen and you listen the sound game, try: go to START and open RUN, add -fixvid at the end of the command line.
the result is:
"/Storage Card2/HPC Doom/HPC Doom.exe" -file plutonia.wad -fixvid

This solve problem in some HPC units with a diferent display driver(We know there are HP680 and Hp720,Hp728 with different control display).



HPC DOOM can run PLutonia,Tnt,Doom and Doomu because Doom is a console engine. Then we can play any game designed specially to run on it. A game that can play on it is named MOD(Modifications).
I found several MODs that works perfect on it: TWILIGHTS WARRIORS ans 007 GOLDEN EYE. Not all MOD can play on HPC DOOM because there are differents MODs to run on anothers advanced or modificated Doom engine.but you can try to run any WAD file designed to run on Doom I.
