bat instead of Just in case you don’t know about how to create a txt file:ġ.) …what DeumReaper said: make sure that you can see the extentions (go into the windows explorer and then in the status bar go to “extras/folder options/display/” and make sure that “fade out extensions” is not marked with a checkmark and click “ok”)Ģ.) Now, you can just rename a file (doesn't matter which one) to ".txt" at the end of the file name. Rename the text file to whatever (I use the wad name) make sure its extention (change windows to show them if you havent already) to. Simply replace "doom.wad" with doom2.wad for doom2 levels, and "deum.wad" with the name of the wad. Yes! is what I always do for custom wads.Ĭreate a text file in the directory and put:

The DOOM II IWAD will be read along with it. Then, just drag the PWAD you want to use onto the executable. You can place the IWADs in the same folder as PrBoom. In the latter case, none of the two main files were being read. That works, and it's good to see you found a solution, but there are ways to avoid having to type the file name in there.īy the problem you were getting, I'm guessing you're dragging the IWADs (main DOOM and DOOM II WAD files) from other folders onto the PrBoom executable, or, separately, any PWADs (custom WAD files) onto the executable. I just had to type the name of the custom.wad file in the prboom.cfg Please let me know if anyone has a map file that utilizes it.I figured out how to play the custom wad files.

Now if only I could get the right stick up/down to map to mouselook. In my case (and I assume all first run cases), I was asked to choose a core. You can also load the wad manually through Main Menu > Load Content then navigating to the wad. The game should show up in its own DooM playlist (other doom games will too).

Download prboom from Online Updater > Content Downloader.Note that I'm on a raspberry pi 4 running Lakka 2.3.2. For anyone who stumbles upon this needing more explicit instructions as I did. I managed to get this working last night, including having the ability to use both sticks. Seems like the sticks are an either/or scenario so I'll have to do something like map L1/R1 to ,/. I was trying to set shoot (ctrl) to left trigger, turn to left stick and d-pad, and strafe to right stick, but I can't seem to be able to map the right stick to anything. On a slightly different note: What are people using for controller configurations? I want to be able to strafe, turn, and shoot all at the same time. I'm more concerned with having just the standard game sounds. I've already read a lot of things about needing to create a playlist of mp3s for game music, which doesn't seem like it'll be too terrible once I get there. Is that correct? If so, which one? The doom wad or the prboom wad? It's also unclear which core I need to select. The next part is understanding how to launch the game. Does it work in tandem with DOSBox, or is it it's own thing? The first part of my confusion is understanding what prboom is and what it does. The only instructions I've found are "put prboom.wad in the same folder as doom1.wad". I'm having a hard time understanding how to play Doom with prboom.
