How Do I Run Doom Faster in Dosbox On My Pi 3?

10eo · Fri Feb 17, 2017 12:28 am

I got Doom working in Dosbox on my Pi 3 recently. But, it runs slow and I tried to increase the cpu cycles in Dosbox but it did nothing. I just want to play Doom at a appropriate speed on my Pi 3, but in the meantime I can play Wolf3d, Prince of Persia, and Rogue

You do realize that Dosbox has to emulate an x86 processor?

About the only thing that might help is to overclock, however the RPi3 can't overclock very far.

Best bet: go get a free hand-me-down PC.

Even better, DOOM has been ported to the Pi. Just get a copy of that and play.

+1 its much faster, as its running natively on the ARM processor, no slow x86 emulation needed.

Doesn't the Retropi image have DOOM on it as standard?

Does anyone know how to correctly install chocolate doom on the pi? Because whenever I install it, it says something like E: cannot find chocolate-doom.

How did you install it?

I just installed it from git using the instructions here -- https://www.chocolate-doom.org/wiki/ind ... _Debian/v3

Then you need to get some IWAD files.

https://www.chocolate-doom.org/wiki/ind ... omputer.3F

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ chocolate-doom -iwad /usr/local/games/doom/doom2.wad

I tried to download chocolate doom by typing

Code: Select all

 apt-get install chocolate-doom

from https://www.chocolate-doom.org/wiki/ind ... m_on_Linux and this happened:

Code: Select all

apt-get install chocolate-doom
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?

and I tried to go root this happens:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install chocolate-doom

E: Unable to locate package chocolate-doom

But (using your method), I already got the dependencies and downloaded the source package (I guess it is talking about the source code of chocolate doom) but, when I tried to extract the package this happened:

Code: Select all

tar xzf chocolate-doom-2.3.0.tar.gz
tar (child): chocolate-doom-2.3.0.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

(Also I'm new to Linux)
What do I do now?

I guess chocolate doom isn't a package anymore.

Yes you are correct it is not in the repositories

Maybe try: https://www.chocolate-doom.org/wiki/ind ... _(generic)

10eo · Sun Feb 19, 2017 3:07 pm

I'll try build chocolate doom on Debian/v3, first. Then, I will try the one for building it in Linux (generic). Thank you, though!

ktb · Sun Feb 19, 2017 8:31 pm

The error you encountered is likely caused by using the wrong file name or location for the downloaded chocolate-doom-2.3.0.tar.gz.

Try this (which is pretty close to what I did):

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt install gcc make libsdl2-dev libsdl2-net-dev libsdl2-mixer-dev python-imaging automake autoconf libtool git

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ~/software/source/chocolate-doom $ ./autogen.sh
bash: /home/pi/software/source/chocolate-doom: No such file or directory

Update: It is now correctly working.

How do I run Chocolate Doom, now? I have the ultimate doom in my downloads folder. Is there any special commands I need to type in for chocolate doom to run with my iwad?

I got it working

. But it is a slow as doom running under dosbox. But, I think setting the software renderer might help with this but which config file do I set it up in and is there a specific spot I need to put it?

Code: Select all

[WARNING: it looks like you are using a software GL implementation.

I really find that hard to believe.

However, I'm on kernel 4.9.9 and using the vc4-fkms-v3d overlay.

Yes you are correct it is not in the repositories

Maybe try: https://www.chocolate-doom.org/wiki/ind ... _(generic)

Hmmm still showing in the debian repo, does that mean it's just missing from ours ?

https://packages.debian.org/jessie/chocolate-doom

Hi,
this is my 1st post on this forum. 2 days ago I got my Raspberry Pi 3 and I installed Raspbian. I saw Chocolate Doom is supported for my OS so I installed it as follows and everything works fine. This link works on Pi 2 and 3, probably on older versions too.
Link: http://www.knight-of-pi.org/doom-on-a-raspberry-pi-2-b/

cd ~
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian libsdl-image1.2 libsdl-mixer1.2 libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2 libsdl-net1.2-dev timidity.
mkdir Doom
cd Doom
sudo wget http://www.chocolate-doom.org/downloads ... 0.0.tar.gz
tar -xvf chocolate-doom-2.0.0.tar.gz
cd chocolate-doom-2.0.0
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
sudo wget http://www.jbserver.com/downloads/games ... m1.wad.zip
sudo unzip doom1.wad.zip

To run the setup, type
chocolate-doom-setup -iwad DOOM1.WAD

To simply run Doom, type
chocolate-doom -iwad DOOM1.WAD

I hope this will be helpful for you!

What settings did you use in dosbox.conf?

Try Crispy-Doom is a fork of Chocolate Doom, a bit more friendly if you are using a modern monitor.
