You could use Doom Legacy, but you'd probably want to use <a href='http://www.doomsdayhq.com/' target='_blank'>JDoom</a> instead. It's much easier to use and it looks much nicer, and that's before you install all the <a href='http://www.jdql.tk/' target='_blank'>custom content</a> like high res textures and 3d models. Legacy also does something weird to the way that you move that I really hate.
The thing is, I want to play doom with the cheesy, original graphics. The point was not to play some fan-made much improved version with extra goodies such as bump-mapping or improved real time dynamic lighting and other experimental features.
Oh well I'll try setting them to horrible settings and disabling the custom stuff.
Edit: Doom Legacy seems to be true to the original, at least in software rendering.

I went out and bought it for the heck of it! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

To hate a game simply because it wasn't made by ID... SHAME ON YOU! Some of the maps in Final Doom are better than others, but many of them are better than anything in Doom 2, and some of them are pure genius, like the one that has you running away from an army of Arch-Viles in a giant maze. Of course, you wouldn't know what I'm talking about, because you didn't even play it! <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> Nein. I didn't like Final DOOM because it sucked. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
At least the first few levels of it sucked.

The first few levels of Plutonia are boiled shyte. I'm not arguing, there. But there was at least one level of Evilution that managed to scare the doodoo out of me at one part. Last year or so, I mean; so even taking into consideration that the Doom engine is kind of... dated, by now.
