I forgot about those... they smell nice!

Glade:

An open space in a forest - a clearing.
A marshy and usually low-lying area.
A periodically inundated grassy marsh often running between adjacent slopes.
A marshy area bounding or forming the headwaters of a stream.
An everglade.
A city in Kansas.

and the other stuff mentioned. Just remember, when you go to buy a glade air freshener, don't come home with a tract of marshy land. No one will thank you for it.

And I still like GZDoom, (even if it doesn't support ducking.

)

Glade has one big problem: There's no Doom in the name.

Adding this one to the "does what it says on the tin" family:
FALDoom (Floors-And-Lights)

Reads too much like 'Fall'Doom - which doesn't give a positive association.

Of all the suggestions so far the best one is still Z3Doom but that's not much better than GZDoom, isn't it?

Still more arguments for GZdoom

It could be

Graf Zahl Doom

Graf Zdoom

But it could even be

GL Zdoom - see, it needn't indicate "self praise" at all.

The Ultimate Doom Engine, or TUDE. Then you could do some really XTREME advertisements where people are like "YEAH MAN I GOT 'TUDE" and are all riding on BMX bikes and shit and then go home and play MAP01 IN FULL COLOR 1600X1200 OMG!!!!!!

Just kidding.

I'm really excited about this, actually.

EDIT: In all seriousness, call it ÃœberDoom

I guess the only thing I don't like about the current name is that it sounds too much like Greasy Doom.

Solarsnowfall: You have to remember that this is the same community that allows projects with names like "Deth" and "Lumpy." If we have projects with names as extravagant as those, I'm sure we can accept a port called "Greasy Doom" - right?

Hey I was one to say the GZDoom was probably the best name for the port. It was just a random thought I suppose.

Post by **wildweasel** » Fri Sep 02, 2005 7:41

Note to self: When making first exclusive GZDoom weapon mod, be sure to call it "Greasy Stain."

...Xaser is free to steal that idea if he can get to it before I finish Seriously and get the hang of GZDoom's dynlight definitions.
