Presentation:

DoomGLES is an OpenGL-ES port for Dell axim x50v, x51v, and O2 XDA Flame (and any PocketPC which contain the intel 2700g or Nvidia GoForce 5500 graphic chipsets) of DoomGL.
DoomGL was developped in 1998-1999. It ran fine on a Pentium 200 with a 3Dfx voodoo card. Nowadays, we have mobile systems which have enough power to run such applications, so I decided to port DoomGL to OpenGL-ES.
DoomGLES has all the features of DoomGL (and more):
- 640 x 480 native support.
- Free look.
- Bilinear filtering with mipmapping.
- Coronas on light sources.
- Dynamic lighting (multitextured lightmaps).
- MD2 monsters and objects.
- Normal mapping support. (GoForce only)
- "Realistic" water support. (GoForce only)
- Glow effect. (GoForce only)
- Posteffects. (GoForce only)

It doesn't run on previous WinCE versions (WM2003 included) because of the lack of landscape support in those OS.
It runs on the 2003 SE QVGA & VGA emulators. Please tell me if it works on real 2003SE device for further support on this OS.
Download it here.
05/01/07 Data update for both shareware & full versions.

31/12/06 - DoomPPC V0.4b (w_initfiles fix).
30/12/06
+ DoomGLES V0.04
- "Fixed" some freezes in MD2 rendering. There was such a freeze in E1M2 each time it renders a stimpack on easy difficulty level.
To test network code (wifi infrastructure), the following debug projects have been released:
+ DoomPPC V0.4 (more infos & download here : Extras)
- Initial release. Debug build. Everything should be there (in beta state...) except music support.
Network code has been successfully tested between a PC and a PocketPC. I would like to have report about PocketPC / PocketPC tests.
+ DoomPC V1.0 (more infos & download here : Extras)
- Initial release. Debug build. Everything should be there.
+ DoomGL V1.1 (more infos & download here : Extras)
- Debug build. Everything from DoomGL 1.0 should be there. Plus network code compatible with DoomPPC, DoomPC and DoomGLES (when it will be available).
17/12/06 DoomGLES V0.03
- Monsters/items rendering bug fixed. Lots of objects were rendered twice when using "stylus look". So now MD2 rendering should be faster.
16/12/06 Data update for both shareware & full versions.
Another conversion problem has been fixed. Only monsters/items from the "Hurt me plenty" difficulty level were converted. So, at higher levels, the game may crash because of unconverted datas.
Please download data patches in the download section. The main data packs have also been updated.
14/12/06 DoomGLES V0.02
- Basic error handler. If an error is detected, the program will quit and display the error in a message box.

- Coronas intialisation bug fixed (most of the time there was no corona).
- Shareware data fix: Missile sprites were not converted. If you already have downloaded shareware converted datas, please download the fix, else the shareware pack has been updated.

Extras

DoomPPC V0.4b
DoomPPC is a Windows Mobile 5 port of Doom for Pocket PC. It uses GAPI library, so it should run in fullscreen on QVGA & VGA devices.
DoomPPC was mainly developped to help me debugging DoomGLES on non-3D features (main engine, basic display, sound, network...).
It was successfully tested on x51v, VGA HP iPAQ hx4700, QVGA HTC Wizard so far.
