Talk:Command line argument

Vanilla Doom's limitation in the amount of command line stuff it can read (with and especially without using response files) should be mentioned here, but I can't quite remember how many characters it was limited to. Anyone know/remember? Janizdreg 13:52, 15 Mar 2005 (GMT)


 * With no response file, wouldn't that limit also depend on the version of DOS being used? Ryan W 06:45, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I am certainly no expert on network protocols, so please don't attach any sort of authority to my descriptions of -net. :> Ryan W 23:00, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I'm almost certiain there are -left and -right command line options that allow you to setup 3 computers in a network (single player) that would allow you to have a FOV of > 180 with 3 monitors. - Zeb McClure


 * It was taken out in 1.2, IIRC. -- TheDarkArchon 09:05, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I think it disappeared when they split out the network backend code into separate driver programs (sersetup.exe/ipxsetup.exe). Fraggle 11:53, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Plays the demo .LMP at double speed  I am not buying this anymore, at least as it applies to present-day computers. I can produce rates of (Source ports are expected to be more diverse, I suppose, since they just use whatever rate is most helpful to the authors during testing, but the table should also state that in far more general terms than it currently does.)

 * slightly less than 300% in vanilla 1.9, no DOSBox (that's 300% of 35 gametics per second, though it does not run at 35 gametics per second normally);
 * slightly less than 150% in Doom95; and
 * about 850% in Doom95 with -emulate.
 * Wow, not only was that inaccurate, it's simply wrong. I've put up a better description. Fraggle 15:51, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
