I'm looking to get psyched for the new DOOM, and Brutal Doom has been helping me with that. I've done playthroughs of the originals, Freedoom, and Final Doom; and am looking for some good fanmade content that compliment the mod.
Attention: FreeDoom compatibility is limited. Some sounds (Hell Knight's see sound for example) will be missing, and some enemies will have buggy sprites on some animations (Most notable on Mastermind's Death, and Baron of Hell's attack animation when being viewed from behind). It's highly recommend to buy a commercial version of Doom 2, place it inside this folder, and use it instead of Freedoom, or if you are already familiar with Doom mods, just extract the hellonearthstarterpack.wad file from this package and put in your sourceport directory and play it from there.
Do you have a readme.file for the tid changes . I scripted a map in ACS and when the Script executes where it spawn the former humans, In its place I now have some viscous blue marine that destroy me! Cant even walk 10 feet , I think I'm going to have to scale my map back. You kick ***!
Im map building on Gzdoom running on Gzdoom Touch for the Nvidia Shield Portable with full mods. I have made maps on Doom3 and CSGO but this Sh8t is way funner!
Drag&drop; brutal pk3 and hellonearthstarterpack.wad in to your gzdoom execution. if i recall corect gzdoom automatic detect your doom2 iwad from steam folder and you can select the iwad after drag and drop 2 main files in gzdoom. if not. copy your doom2 wad from your steam to this pack folder. or use laucher like zdl..
Hi, my Gzdoom isn't recognising the hellonearthstarterpack WAD at all, can still see my regular Doom2 and Ultimate Doom WADs as on option when I drag and drop v20b onto GZdoom's exe. What am I doing wrong?
Install the brutal-doomAUR package, which requires having two gzdoom.ini files. Alternatively gzdoom-gitAUR can be modified directly as shown below. However, if you want to be able to run both gzdoom and brutal-doom separately in order to play both versions, then you would need the brutal-doom package.
So, I think the title is straightforward enough, I don't know how to start Doom (which in my case is the sourceport called GZDoom) in Launchbox with the brutal doom mod (and the mod to have the PS1 OST) enabled. Apparently you start it by dragging and dropping the brutalv21.pk3 on the GZDoom executable, and fair enough, it works on my PC, although it's cumbersome to start Brutal Doom this way, but from Launchbox? Nah, I just get a pop up window that asks me if I would like to launch Doom or Doom II, and they're always the base versions (or "vanilla" versions if you will), not brutal doom, even though the brutal doom .pk3 is in the folder where GZDoom .exe is.
I am aware of the shortcutting to the sourceport's executable, right-clicking "properties" and adding the "brutalv21.pk3" target, as explained here
- I have opened a bug reporting forum on Moddb. Post any of your bug reports and suggestions there, and do not message them to me on social media, because I am not able to track them if you do. -doom/forum/board/bug-reporting
FYI, you will get an error message saying that you need to put WAD files in /.config/gzdoom/, but this package changes the config directory to /.config/brutal-doom even though the error dialog doesn't say that.
@zanny Thank you for that commit. Totally awesome! Working great, rocking the Ancient Aliens WAD brutal style. Also just an FYI if you want to play the the "classic" way without mouselook and still have all the brutal features, open up the brutal doom pk3 and delete the weapon.noautoaim line from each weapon's file. It'll be just like classic doom's auto aim when using a keyboard.
I just pushed an update that lets you open wads. In whatever your file browser is just associate Brutal Doom with wads (it should give you the option of gzdoom or brutal doom now) or via shell just append wads to brutal-doom.
Can someone tell me how to load custom wad's using the brutal doom launcher? I'm trying to get maps of chaos to work, but I can only get it to run when launching GZDoom solo by right clicking the wad and running it with gzdoom and selecting the ultimate doom (won't run with doom II), not when running brutal doom. 98% of the info out there is for Windows.
You can use Project Brutality by editing the gzdoom.ini installed by this package to include the Brutality pk3 with whatever PWAD you want to use it with (the same way the ini includes the Brutal Doom pk3).
Right click the game in steam and to go Manage > Browse local files
Open the base directory and copy DOOM.WAD to the same directory as gzdoom.exe from the steps above.
Run gzdoom.exe and it either will load into vanilla DOOM or show an IWAD selection menu if you already have another WAD copied in the GZDoom directory. Skip below to Brutal DOOM WAD to setup Brutal DOOM.

Extermination Day (formerly known as Hell on Earth Starter Pack) is a 35-level WIP megawad add-on for Brutal Doom, created by Marcos Abenante (Sergeant Mark IV) and initially released on December 31, 2015. It is intended to be loaded with Doom II or Freedoom, using the included version of GZDoom which is pre-configured for play.
The mod was mentioned by John Romero, who jokingly said that if id Software had released the original Doom with the features of Brutal Doom, they would have "destroyed the gaming industry".[9] However, he later mentioned on his Twitter feed that Brutal Doom "is not how doom's supposed to be played."[10] Dominic Tarason of Rock Paper Shotgun remarked how the mod has "risen to such ubiquity that it has spawned a whole parallel mod scene of its own" and considered it "a game in its own right at this point".[11] Andras Neltz of Kotaku said that it was "shaping up to be one of the modding greats".[12] TechRadar called it "the most modernised, spectacular Doom mod to date".[13] Chris Plante of Polygon called it "incredible", "stomach-churning" and "hysterical".[14]
