Torr Samaho is a co-developer of the Skulltag source port. His most notable contributions are compiling Skulltag for Ubuntu and FreeBSD, adding Heretic, Hexen, and Strife support, and fixing many of the hacks that started floating around the community after the release of Skulltag version 97c2. Torr even has contributed many things to GZDoom through Skulltag, such as more model features, HUD models, and a few other things OpenGL-related.

He also made a single deathmatch map, Template:Ig2, ca. September 2000.

Trivia

  • The nickname Torr Samaho is taken from a character in the Perry Rhodan series. On the Doomworld forums, Torr's seldom-used account is "Torr_Samaho" (with an underscore). The username "Torr Samaho" (with a space) once belonged to a different person with a similar taste in literature, who has since changed their username to "Pirx".
