      actually it should to be at least 32bit CPU (16+ MHz-ish). Technically it's of course possible to port the original source even to 8bit and 16bit CPUs, but they usually require hand-optimized assembly and scaled/cut-down assets (i.e. LOT of love and work), while this camera is using the original data, converting them to appropriate format at runtime, and I guess the code port was only about replacing platform-specific parts, but the BSP-based renderer and gameplay-logic code is mostly original one.
      Any 32+ bit CPU at 30+MHz with some similar video mode to 320x200 256color VGA mode should be capable to run DOOM at playable performance (with resolution near original 320x200). Slower CPUs can use the original "low detail" mode (duplicating every screen column) or lower resolution. The major pain is, when you don't have 256-indexed color mode on the target device, and you have to produce RGB data, that usually means you need rather something in the 60-100MHz range with fast memory to get the similar results (as 386 PC), and maybe even transcode the assets before playing the game to get some performance back, but then you need even more memory.

    The processing capacity of the cameras is incredible, and more so that model, which can record videos.
    At first it surprises, but in reality under the camera case it has a minimum 100 MHz CPU, and I estimate that it will have between 2MB to 4MB of ram, left over to move the DOOM in conditions. The camera has a powerful CPU because you have to encode and decode the videos, including the audio track, and at the same time if it is recorded it has to show fluidity on the screen while recording.
    It is a marvel of engineering.
    That camera is equivalent to a 486 in terms of power.

      SNES Doom ran poorly, 3DO Doom and Saturn Doom ran like dogshit, but Playstation Doom ran decently (offering lots of new content), and Doom 64 ran pretty well (also being an almost entirely new game). You also have the ports on Atari Jaguar and Sega 32X, which actually ran smooth as silk, admittedly with some other concessions.

    • @0neDoomedSpaceMarine
      @0neDoomedSpaceMarine 5 років тому +3

      @@gamerguy425 I think that if Doom got ported to CD+32X, it would have been able to have been one of the best home ports.
      The 32X port has great framerate, if you play with a six button controller you actually have quite good controls, and the audio quality is crystal clear.
      Where it falters is that it cuts out a bunch of levels, it cuts out most rotations, and the music sucks, which could easily be fixed with the use of the CD, you would be able to fit all the levels and all the missing rotation graphics no sweat, and there'd be more than enough space left on the disk for a full recorded soundtrack. In fact, you could likely fit all of Doom 2 in there too, with maybe some trimming to levels here and there for the sake of framerate (as was done for Doom 1's levels)
      It would ultimately involve buying the 32X, which should probably never have existed, but say that you found one for like $5 after it was clear to everyone that Sega fucked up, and if you already had a Sega CD, it'd be a pretty sweet port to pick up, hypothetically.

    • @KuraIthys

      Doom 64 is basically an entirely different game.
      But I've looked at the specs of the n64 at times, and I figure a direct Doom port would've run pretty well too.
      The N64 is basically running a 64 bit 90 mhz processor, which is probably comparable to a pentium system. - the main CPU has a floating point unit.
      The graphics chip contains a DSP with some polygon rasterization logic, combined with a second CPU running at about 66 mhz (this secondary CPU has the exact same architecture as the first, but it's floating point unit is missing, and instead it has an integer vector math unit - think something akin to the pentium MMX extensions)
      Interestingly, the video output circuit is entirely distinct from either of these things, and has some functionality of it's own.
      Aside from being able to set a variety of screen modes, colour depths and resolutions, it also has part of the Anti-aliasing filter implementation (Which can technically be turned on and off), and an image scaling unit. (meaning you can for instance render a 128x96 image and stretch that to fill the whole screen).
      But, one of the most fascinating things about this is that it simply outputs an image based on whatever mode settings it has, by assuming the data starting from whatever you've set the framebuffer pointer to is the frame.
      (thus reading directly from main memory - the n64 has a unified memory architecture).
      Normally, the graphics chip would be drawing frames.
      But one of the implications of this arrangement is that anything that can write to memory can draw a frame that the video output system can display.
      That means you can use the full hardware 3d features, a software renderer running on the main CPU (as a PC would do it), or even a software renderer running on the secondary CPU, or if you want to go even further down the rabbit hole, a software renderer running on the main and secondary CPU's combined while ignoring the dedicated 3d functionality entirely...
      Doom 64 is obviously a full 3d game that probably has little code in common with normal versions of doom...
      But it's pretty obvious that this arrangement would make it easy to do a direct port of Doom running solely on the CPU...
      In fact, I'm fairly sure someone has done this, and it runs exceptionally well. (albeit with no sound whatsoever. Presumably because sound would require writing a lot more custom code to set up a suitable sound engine)
      For that matter, I expect the n64 is probably fast enough to run Quake as a direct software rendered port. Obviously this isn't optimal, since you're leaving a lot of the hardware idle, but it would almost certainly be possible...
      Console ports are a weird thing...
      Some hardware should be able to run such things easily and STILL the ports have things wrong with them (see... Modern console releases of Doom...)

    We had a broken down coffee machine at my work. It has a full Windows CE subsystem installed. It runs Doom now.
    The maintenance guy that came out to fix it got a kick out of it, played it for a few minutes. While the machine is fixed, the maintenance guy showed me how to boot it into Windows, and he confirms they're shockingly overpowered, and (as long as I can find a CE port) that it could easily run Unreal Tournament.

      But yes, Doom for switch had DRM and a slowed down soundtrack. The graphic quality wasn't as good, either, but that's all fixed.
      They still need to get rid of those boarders and let allow you to swap between fist and chainsaw. The ending's while still in the game, are messed a bit since they added new end credits.
