Ok, So I've got DOSBox ver .74 and Doom II installed with it. Then I discovered the mod Brutal Doom mod, and desperately want to install it.

Check the demo vid and you'll know why: http://youtu.be/QLKZhu_dgxA

However I have no idea how to accomplish this. The readme text didn't cover modding game software. I downloaded the mod and the folder contained a text document about the features and also a *.pk3 file.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

P.S. Sorry if this post is in the wrong place.[/url]

Brutal Doom requires the use of the GZDoom source port which isn't really for DOS. It also relies on GZDoom's OpenGL extended lumps for most new effects so you're not going to emulate it anyway

You do this:

- Install Doom2 somewhere
- Extract the latest GZDoom into that somewhere folder with Doom2
- Extract Brutal Doom in there as well, you should see a pk3 file in the somewhere folder with Doom2
- Start by dragging-and-dropping the pk3 file over the GZDOOM.EXE and it should work
- PLAY BURTAL DOMO

Also reconfigure your controls to a 'modern' style scheme with mouse aim/keyboard move since Brutal Doom is designed for that sort of play. Aiming down the sight on a keyboard is stupid

Thread should be moved to Milliways, as relevance to DOSBox is nil.

Is there are Version of GZ-Doom which runs under WIn98se?
Does that version work with brutal doom and what version of brutal doom should I use.

I did some testing with my imac and wine, but gzdoom does not look like "brutal doom" even if I copied the *.pk3 to the folder.
