More ergonomic design, including a box listing all of your patch wads allowing you to quickly add them to load in the engine of your choosing. (note, this picture was taken before certain features such as saving and loading config files was added) Here is me testing the vanilla compatibility of obsidian deathmatch for instance from Rocket Launcher: In order for this to work, you must make sure the files used (including any pwads) and folders containing them (including parent folders) used are no longer than 8 characters long, or it probably will not work properly! Yes, simply add dosbox.exe as an engine, then select it and you will be prompted to locate your original doom/doom2 executable file. Want to play vanilla doom but tired of typing commands and mounting directories in dosbox? Then use Rocket Launcher, it will automatically run the doom executable in dosbox with the correct aspect ratio, will understand skill and command line parameters, and attempt to load any additional files you specify (must be doom compatible wads).
This may not be quite as feature rich as ZDL, but it does have a few advantages, such as:
Furthermore, you can associate and launch doom files with this program, and it is also compatible with doom builder to test your maps with.Ī: No particular reason, this is a personal project I am working on that I have decided to share. Rocket Launcher: A GUI for launching Doom wads I've been working on for windows:įor those who have not used a Doom Frontend such as ZDL before, this is an interface allowing you to quickly set up a doom game using any combination of source port, IWAD, patch wads and additional arguments of your choosing.
