Semi-unofficial DS Doom 1.1.0 release

Semi-unofficial DS Doom 1.1.0 "release"

December 13th, 2006, 10:41 Posted By: jefklak

First announced on gbadev.org forums. I'll quote everything right here, for the lazy.

I grew tired of the only-one-screen-usage of DS Doom 1.0.0 and hacked along myself, adding a zoomable automap on the lower screen together with a whole lot of pretty features. I've had plenty of contact with the DS Doom developers WinterMute and TheCuckster and hoped I could apply the changes to SVN... Well until now, don't hear anything from them. I guess they don't like the changes or my code is too dirty or something, although wintermute was planning on creating an SVN account. Ah well.
You can download the 1.1.0 sourcecode and mess with it yourself, if you like to. I don't really care anymore, good luck with it. I've marked all my changes with comments "// Jefklak [date] [description]".

At least let me distribute this version so other people beyond myself can enjoy some more Doom on the Nintendo DS.
