Hi!
There is another 1:1 (as much is possible) conversion of mod Knee Deep in ZDoom
Arrow Official site http://kdizd.drdteam.org/

Convo's obviously surpasses original as they tend to fix misc. erros which i am not gonna reproduce but rather fix them.
TNS once mentioned we might try someday KDIZ, so there it is... the very
first attempt I tried! Rolling Eyes
Anyone willing to help is free to. (here or IRC) Wink

Exclamation The original reguired DOOM.WAD iwad, same applies for this.
....Is there a reason to switch to doom2.wad instead?

FEEDBACK APPRECIATED

KDiZ buglist:
Serves as my notes, those things are fixed

- Some amount of original map errors, ill fix some, ignore some
- RapidFireTrooper has double-defined N (XScream) frame. Someone dumb didn't noticed.
- There are D2 bloodpools for some reason which are obviously missing in doom.wad and those are used in KDiZ
- CarcassSittingMarine + GibsSeveredHand included in KDiZ maps is sometimes missing "singleplayer" appearance flag... was
damn pain to debug. Mad

Conclusion:
The KDiZ is a nice cool wad with nice design and de-facto sorta remake of Ultimate Doom Episode 1 using nice features which is worth convert so zdaemon players could enjoy something better than just lame obsolete broken boom wads.
The WAD was designed (sometimes in lame way[thinkin of columns]) for earlier versions of zdoom so there is no real thing that would block converting it. Twisted Evil

Those are real screenshots taken from the zdaemon version preview
It also servers as a cool demonstration of what you can do.
You may notice that a lot of things are still missing <!>

Working on it when excited enough and when there's freetime around. There you go with v03 with some progress made. Its a long way to go... especially ACS will be bothering since i am afraid some of it is without a source
