<div class="paragraph"><p>The IWAD file is the file used by Doom which contains all the game data

(graphics, sound effects, music, etc.). While the Doom source code is

Free, you currently still need one of the proprietary IWAD files from id

example, you may freely use Freedoom for any purpose you see fit, you

may redistribute it to anyone without needing to ask for permission, you

may modify it (provided you keep the license intact, see <code>COPYING</code>), and

you may study it — for example, to see how a Doom IWAD is built. To

|
|
<div class="sectionbody">
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Contributions to Freedoom are always welcome, however there are a few
|
|
guidelines that should be followed:</p></div>
|
|
<div class="sect2">
|
|
<h3 id="_intellectual_property">Intellectual Property</h3>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>We know people hate legalese, but this is important. This applies to
|
|
<strong>everything</strong> which is submitted.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>You must be incredibly careful when basing on existing graphics or
|
|
sounds. Most Doom projects are incredibly lax on reusing intellectual
|
|
property — there are plenty of WADs out there which contain modified
|
|
Doom sprites, for example. However, due to the nature of this project,
|
|
we do not have the same liberty to rip as we please.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>The general rules go as follows:</p></div>
|
|
<div class="ulist"><ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Everything you submit must be 100% your own work. You must not base
|
|
upon resources from Doom or any other game. You may not even rip
|
|
textures from WADs you have downloaded (if you find a WAD with
|
|
textures in which look useful, let us know — that way, we can
|
|
contact the author).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Do not simply copy the original resources. Where possible, try to
|
|
make an effort to make the new versions look visibly different from
|
|
the originals.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Be especially careful of “free texture” (or “free sound” or
|
|
“free graphic”) sites. Although these would appear at first to
|
|
be okay to use, many are free for “non-commercial use only”. One
|
|
of the things we want to be able to do is put this on GNU/Linux CDs
|
|
(which are sold — “a commercial use”).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The main exception is that you may of course reuse anything in the
|
|
Freedoom source tree. In fact, this is encouraged, as reusing
|
|
material will give the WAD a more consistent feel.

<h3 id="_levels">Levels</h3>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Levels should be in Boom format; you may exceed the limits of Vanilla
|
|
Doom and use Boom features; however, do not use features that are not
|
|
supported by Boom 2.02 and compatible ports. Levels should be in Doom’s
|
|
original format, not in “Hexen” format.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>It is sensible to also heed the following guidelines:</p></div>
|
|
<div class="ulist"><ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Make sure that skill levels are implemented, and that all
|
|
multiplayer start points are present.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Make levels appropriately difficult for their position within the
|
|
progression of the game. Also bear in mind that not all players may
|
|
be as skilled a player as you.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Do not use tricks that exploit Doom’s software renderer; some source
|
|
ports, especially those that use hardware accelerated rendering, may
|
|
not render it properly. Examples of tricks to avoid include those used
|
|
to simulate 3D bridges and “deep water” effects.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Boom removes almost all of the limits on rendering; however, do not
|
|
make excessively complicated scenes. It is desirable that Freedoom
|
|
levels should be playable on old or low-powered hardware.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Always test in <a href="http://www.teamtnt.com/boompubl/boom2.htm">Boom</a>
|
|
itself rather than a derivative such as PrBoom. This ensures that
|
|
your levels really are Boom-compatible rather than using any extra
|
|
features. As DOS is rather rare these days, you may not have a
|
|
system which can run Boom natively, so you may use either
|
|
<a href="http://www.dosbox.com/">DOSBox</a> or <a href="http://www.freedos.org/">FreeDOS</a>.

|
|
<h3 id="_graphics">Graphics</h3>
|
|
<div class="ulist"><ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Graphics should be the same color and size as the originals to
|
|
remain compatible with PWADs (otherwise, they may end up looking
|
|
like a mess). They cannot use the Doom font.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Textures should be the same dimensions as the originals. They
|
|
should be similar but not identical (to avoid IP infringement) —  in fact, they should be as different as possible while keeping to
|
|
the general theme of the texture. As mentioned above, try to make
|
|
a conscious effort to make the textures visibly different from the
|
|
originals. Critically, the textures should tile in the same way as
|
|
the originals.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Some textures contain the letters UAC or references to UAC; this is
|
|
an intellectual property of id Software (trademarked). Instead, use
|
|
the letters AGM in your textures.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Sprites should be roughly the same size and shape, but different to
|
|
the originals. Doom monsters are id’s intellectual property (which
|
|
means no imps, cyberdemons, etc). The new monsters will behave the
|
|
same way as the originals, but will be totally new.

<div class="paragraph"><p>Freedoom always needs help with the documentation, so please send your
|
|
patches, but keep in mind:</p></div>
|
|
<div class="ulist"><ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We use <a href="http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/">AsciiDoc</a> for writing the
|
|
documentation. AsciiDoc is a simple plaintext-based format which is
|
|
simple to read and write in its source form, and makes pretty HTML
|
|
documents out of them (it also supports other formats like
|
|
DocBook/PDF/manual pages…).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Headers are formated in a wiki-style format, this makes it easier
|
|
for Vim (perhaps other editors, too) to automatically re-format
|
|
text.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Text is kept at 72 characters wide. In Vim, you can set the editor
|
|
to automatically insert line breaks as you’re typing by performing
|
|
<code>set textwidth=72</code>. Special exceptions to the width rule might be
|
|
allowed when necessary (for example, inserting long URLs).

<div class="paragraph"><p>TODO: Figure out the best method of doing this. This mainly requires
|
|
time to see what works best.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you use git, make sure your commit messages start with a single
|
|
line, under 72 characters, which provides an adequate summary of your
|
|
changes. You should prefix this line with the component you are commit
|
|
(for example, “map17: fixed unbeatable map”). This should be
|
|
followed by a blank line and more explanation if it’s needed (for
|
|
example, explaining what part of the map was broken). The commit
|
|
2013-12-20T16:06:55Z!<a href="mailto:rjy@users.sourceforge.net">rjy@users.sourceforge.net</a> shows a good example of
|
|
a well-structured commit message.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>You should commit often; each important change should get its own
|
|
commit, but minor changes need not. Take advantage of git’s ability to
|
|
rewrite history, don’t use <code>git revert</code> on your private copy of the
|
|
repository, just remove (<code>git reset</code>) or amend (<code>git commit --amend</code>)
|
|
the faulty commit as necessary. Leave all the interesting and important
|
|
history bits, leave out stupid mistakes like spell check errors.</p></div>
