Romero > Right in the middle of the picture is the apartment where John Carmack lived and id Software worked. It was a 3 bedroom apartment so John was upstairs and all the id equipment was downstairs. We were only here for 6 months. The sky was just as gray back then so we just stayed inside and made Keens 4-6 and the beginning of Wolfenstein 3D.
Romero > This is one of Adrian Carmack's cars - a Shelby Cobra! Man, this thing sounded awesome.
Romero > Here's a PC Gamer article about the Masters of DOOM book, February 2003. John Carmack and I had to sign off on the accuracy of the book before Random House would publish it. It's all true! :)
Romero > In Spear of Destiny (1992), I put a secret screen in the game that could only be reached by a secret keypress in the menu system. The original screen (320x200) is in the upper right-hand corner and it had the subtitle "We're Not Wearing Any Pants!". This picture was taken in the Mesquite, TX id apartment during the same session and was a "crazy shot" we didn't use.
Romero > This is a picture of the Shreveport lakehouse that id Software started in. Tom took this pic of John Carmack and myself while we were working on the Super Mario 3 demo for Nintendo - so this was sometime in September 1990. You can see how nice it was outside while we were inside just coding. Heh. The computer setup on the far table was Tom's 386/33 and a TV set hooked up to a VCR that had a videotape of Super Mario 3 freeze-framed so he could duplicate the graphics pixel-by-pixel. The TV between John and I was hooked up to an NES so we could play SM3 and watch the movement and how things worked so we could duplicate it. There's a whiteboard propped up with writing on it that detailed all the tasks we needed to do to finish the demo. During this time there was a lot of summer flooding around the lake and one day I actually waded through a ton of water up to my waist to get to id to keep coding. Lucky for me I didn't run into any snakes!
Right in the middle of the picture is the apartment where John Carmack lived and id Software worked.

It was a 3 bedroom apartment so John was upstairs and all the id equipment was downstairs.

We were only here for 6 months. The sky was just as gray back then so we just stayed inside and made Keens 4-6 and the beginning of Wolfenstein 3D.
