While most of you will be playing this mod via modern source ports (where it looks and sounds great), a fully DOS-compatible version is included in case you've got a decades-old 386 that you want to treat to something new. A mad labour of love by modder "Noiser", it boils down absolutely everything from Id's most recent glory-killing rip-and-tearfest until it'll run on actual early 90s hardware. What if Doom 2016 (aka Doom 4) fell through a time vortex and launched for MS DOS instead? If we survived the temporal collapse, it'd probably turn out a bit like this.
I assume that Elend has oodles of mapping experience in other games, so don't assume you'll be able to do this straight away. It's also absolutely stunning to look at, and full of well choreographed traps and battles. Hurt is a single massive level taking advantage of every trick the GZDoom engine has to offer, featuring plenty of new enemy types and capped off with a brooding, ambient soundtrack. Hurt is apparently the second Doom map that "Elend" has ever made, and the only one released publicly. And with that out of the way, here's what you should probably be checking out right now: Hurt Don't neglect the extra step to turn off texture filtering, because Doom sprites look awful when they're blurred and smudged.
The instructions for running all the mods below have changed very little since I last covered the scene, so check out the bottom section of my 2018 Cacowards coverage for a quick guide to getting this up and running. We've got Doom 4 for DOS, eldritch weirdness, shareware era nostalgia, a crossover with Blood, and an all-you-can-eat buffet of around 2700 levels for the Doomer who can never have too much. I'm beating the Cacowards to the punch, really, and giving you a handful of choice picks to get your teeth into early. There's only a few weeks left in 2019, and we're fast approaching this year's Cacowards, Doomworld's annual community awards, so it feels only right to see what's been going on in the classic Doom modding scene these past few months. Every other Monday, Dominic gives you a reason to dust off one of your old games and dive into its mods with Modder Superior.
