You think that Raytracing doesn’t bring anything, that games were better before (like me) ? Well, here is finally a good news : Doom “original” ( 1993 version ) has just received its RTX ON version. But as you are grumpy, you may think that modifying such a cult game is a sacrilege ? I think you will be pleasantly surprised by this mod and what it brings to this legendary game. Because it is obviously a mod that allows this miracle. The author is not an unknown, he is Sublim_t, who already added ray tracing via path tracing on Half-Life and Serious Sam: The First Encounter.
Doom RTX ON
The necessary source code and the playable version can be downloaded on GitHub, along with instructions on how to get everything up and running. Note that you will need a copy of the original DOOM.wad file to play…a simple detail for most of us. GitHub also hosts a music pack and optional high quality files to support Nvidia’s DLSS rendering technology. Of course with such modifications, this game doesn’t fit on two 3.5″ 1.44MB floppy disks anymore.
