LsdlDoom

LsdlDoom is a source port, originally based off LxDoom for the Windows platform. It brings many improvements over the original Boom codebase, with a significant portion of these inherited from MBF.

History
LsdlDoom started off as merely a Windows version of LxDoom, from which it was derived from. Jess Haas then took over the project before this merge and made the first release of LsdlDoom on April 4, 2000, available for Windows and Linux. Haas worked all of April on the port, releasing new versions in quick succession that fixed compilation problems and streamlined the source code.

Eventually, the LxDoom (and thus LsdlDoom) and PrBoom projects merged. Because of its portability, bug fixes and strong backwards compatibility, LxDoom formed the basis for the new version of PrBoom. The new version is based on, which makes it quickly portable to many different operating systems.

However, this was not to be the last of LsdlDoom. After releasing 1.4.4.4 on April 30, 2000, the port went into a dormant state until over 11 years later. Starting from September 22 and October 3, Haas worked on a new version of the port, version 1.5. It fixed compiler warnings and resolved various bugs, predominantly from the  distribution. It was released as source code only on October 25, 2011.
