Source Ports

Since the release of the source code, several modified engines have emerged.

You can view a more exhaustive list on Wikipedia or a set of comparison tables on DoomWiki.org. The history of various source ports is examined on Doomworld.

Content

A freely redistributable replacement of DOOM-like assets is available at Freedoom, forming a completely free and open source game. Art assets from the original game such as the levels, sounds, textures, etc., remain under copyright. They can be purchased from Steam or copied from an original game disk.

Field of view (FOV)

Depending on your choice of engine, you can usually change the field of view with a console command, or even in the options. Try fov <1-179> or gr_fov <1-179>.
