Doom players out there may be interested in the first level made in the last 21 years by John Romero.

More information and instructions can be found on the following link:

I thought this was pretty cool and wanted to pass it along.

Take care all

Thanks for the info !


Just a question :

When will he make some new levels for Daikatana ? :)
Interesting, but it makes me a bit sad as well.
Why not.
I am having blast with Brutal DOOM.

I hope this level works with FreeDOOM too.
Does anyone know how I can play this level on a mac computer? I currently have The Ultimate DOOM wad from GOG, using it with ZDoom (mac version). ZDoom does not seem to recognise the new e1m8b.wad, I always get the original e1m8 instead. I've tried putting the new wad in the same folder as doom.wad, and I've tried dragging the new wad on top of the zdoom app, neither works.

I can't guarantee anything (not a Mac user), but maybe the ZDL Mac build would be worth a try...?

No luck unfortunately :(, thanks for the suggestion though! I think it may be a problem with the version of ZDoom I'm using, it doesn't recognise the new wad for whatever reason (I'm not very experienced with using source ports)
Thanks! This is awesome. Will absolutely have to check it out.

It's waiting for nude pictures of John Romero.

There's a joke about Romero's bitch in there somewhere, but I can't come up with anything really funny at the moment.

I think people should stop ridiculing him for that. He's really not the man he was back then. He has matured and grown wise since then, become kind and generous and he's also a hopeless romantic. I was incidentally at the same restaurant when he proposed to Brenda. Suddenly a string quartet came in, started playing Waiting for Romero to Play and he got down on one knee. In a manner so sensual that it made my heart freeze he said "I'm gonna make you my bitch" and revealed the most beautiful engagement ring imaginable. She was so happy, she covered her face with both her hands and after some muffled screams she whispered "okay". Damn, just thinking about this... I need a tissue.
I'm a bit disappointed that it doesn't work with the original DOOM and you need a source port with less limitations :(
