Doom 3 Demo out, Network ZDoom, T-Group Sensitivity Training

Sunday · 19 Sep 04 · 08:23 PM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: General

Well, just a short post before I go for dinner.  My T-Group Sensitivity Training course started yesterday.  There are fourteen of us who have taken the course.  We had about six hours of this workshop yesterday, and about three and a half hours today.  The instructor taking this is Prof. Dilip Lahiri, who is a guest faculty.  He is taking a structured version of the training, where the focus is more on analysis of our responses to questionnaires.  There of course is some amount of group activity and transaction analysis too.

Now that it is vacation time, the hostel is considerably emptier than usual.  And those of us who are staying back are having a grand time, watching lots of movies.  For instance, yesterday I watched Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels again.  Though I've seen this movie many times, this was the first time I'm watching an uncensored version (the TV versions had excised some of the scenes containing violence and language).  Of course, it is a brilliant film.

Last night in the Systems Lab, I got ZDoom working on the network, and played a bit of deathmatch (on Doom II, MAP01) with Kuldeep and Kamal.  Unfortunately we started at around 11:30 PM, so had to wind up by midnight because we had to be back in the hostel!

I just found out that the Doom 3 Demo is out!  Here is the 3D Gamers page with the download links.  The file size is 461 MB, and I am sure I can download it overnight if I wanted to, but I don't think I will.  Firstly, I cannot play this, and the only reason for downloading would be to send it to Varun on CD.  And I don't think it is worth doing that, because Digit magazine would probably have it on their next issue's CD or DVD.

Speaking of Varun's work, I just had a look at some of his recent (excellent) photos on his Bytephoto gallery, and he also sent me his latest wallpaper called Cyanosis, which is is best work till date.

Dark Fate 2 is a singleplayer level for Doom II, replacing MAP01.  It's a small-sized hellish level — and there's a walkthrough video as well.
