Variations 1-21 is a collection of 21 rooms containing unfinished and unreleased works plus design elements that I did for the original Doom in the late 90's/early 2000's, all now finished and cobbled up into a single dedicated Deathmatch map (single and cooperative have been added to prevent possible compatibility issues with certain source ports and/or editors).
A limit removing port is required, since the original DOS version of Doom already craps out with only ONE room though not every available port has been tested for Release ONE. An overview of used and tested source ports during development has been listed below. If a particular source port is not listed, then the workings with this map is unknown.
The map has been initially developed with Deu 5.21 GCC, followed by Winzeth 4.17 and finished with Borg's Zeth port (1) due to Winzeth crapping out with a memory error. As a result of using Winzeth, the map has been saved as "Doom in Hexen" format, which is not supported by certain ports such as PrBoom+ and DOOMretro. The original ZDoom source port was used for playtesting, so the map should work on any ZDoom deratives such as GZDoom, LZDoom and Zandronum.
For more information about this map, see the webpage http://www.apprentice.be and various threads on the Doom related forums where I have posted this release and are active on.
