- Description : Few Ultimate Doom WADs have stood the test of time
- as well as the 2011 E1 replacement "Double Impact"
- by RottKing and Ralphis, a collection of sprawling
- techbases with agile action. In addition to being
- released as a standalone PWAD, Double Impact became
- the fourth episode of the IWAD replacement
- Freedoom: Phase 1 in 2013, and in 2020 became an
- official add-on for the Unity port of Doom,
- introducing it to a wider audience than even the
- best Doom WADs usually receive.
-
- One small flaw in this otherwise great WAD is its
- incomplete soundtrack. The original PWAD contained
- two original tracks and two remixes of Bobby
- Prince's music. In Freedoom, due to the limitations
- of the engine, Double Impact simply reuses music
- from the first three episodes, in the same pattern
- that Ultimate Doom's fourth episode did, meaning
- that the music selections fit only a little better
- than random chance. This project aims to fix that
- flaw by providing a new soundtrack for the WAD that
- can be used with both the PWAD and Freedoom: Phase
- 1, and which, in the spirit of Freedoom, is
- absolutely free to reuse and remix.
- Special thanks : RottKing for Double Impact.
- Ralphis for Double Impact, and also for providing
- some early feedback on the idea for the project.
- Everyone who's contributed to Freedoom and the
- wider ecosystem of open-source software and games.
- Palitoman and Bobby were set to contribute to this
- pack, but never finished their contributions due to
- my (continuum.mid) lack of due diligence in keeping
- the project alive. Thanks for contributing and I'm
- sorry for taking so long.
