Summary:
C: Continuation of Lee Killough's Doom source port MBF
Description:
C: |-
<p>Woof! is a continuation of Lee Killough's Doom source port MBF targeted at modern systems. MBF
stands for "Marine's Best Friend" and is widely regarded as the successor of the Boom
source port by TeamTNT. It serves as the code base for popular Doom source ports such as PrBoom+/DSDA-Doom
or The Eternity Engine. As the original engine was limited to run only under MS-DOS, it has been ported
to Windows by Team Eternity under the name WinMBF in 2004. Woof! is developed based on the WinMBF code
with the aim to make MBF more widely available and convenient to use on modern systems. To achieve this
goal, this source port is less strict regarding its faithfulness to the original MBF. It is focused on
quality-of-life enhancements, bug fixes and compatibility improvements. However, all changes have been
introduced in good faith that they are in line with the original author's intentions and even for
the trained eye, this source port should still look very familiar to the original MBF. In summary, this
project's goal is to forward-port MBF.EXE from DOS to 21st century and remove all the stumbling
blocks on the way. Furthermore, just as MBF was ahead of its time, this project dedicates itself to early
adoption of new modding features such as DEHEXTRA+DSDHacked, UMAPINFO and MBF21.</p>
