My "Sorry" to port creators...
I, the almighty Law, would like to say "I'm sorry" to Jonathon Fowler and TerminX for bashing and not using their great ports. You are the gods. I have once written that my sound card doesn't work well with Jonof's port. It is working now - I just had to swap the cfg file with my old cfg made with the old 3D Realms Setup.exe (I have saved & zipped configs for frequently used games). To be honest there is one thing to do, a function which is included in the Zdoom engine (I use it all the time). I know that all Build map versions differ from each other, but is it possible to make a Build port which could support multiple games like Redneck or Blood just like Zdoom supports Doom, Heretic, Hexen and Strife in one executable? Anyway thanks you for your great job! Windows 98 no more

It's possible, but need so many works...just like Strife support in ZDoom.
Due Strife's source code was lost. So it cannot be released.
And some ZDoom developers(and some programmers) using reverse-engineering on Strife.exe and emulate those Strife-exclusive functions in ZDoom engine.

Maybe needs a lot of reverse-engineering on Blood.exe/Redneck.exe...

But I think it's not easy to done...

yeah that was an amazing job of zdoom's team. vavoom also supports Doom, Heretic, Hexen and Strife. on the other hand, gzdoom is the port of choice, because is zdoom with opengl support and more.
