A Doom port that supports Lua scripting. The idea of this port is not to stay compatible or emulate original game accurately. Lua scripts in kgdoom.wad for original games do not reflect 100% original game behavior and are provided only for basic compatibility.

Original port by kgsws and updated for 5.x.x by aagallag.

Installation

Download contains several versions:

To install on Switch, you currently have to use HBL:

  • Copy kgdoom.nro and kgdoom.wad to /switch/kgdoom/ on your SD card.
  • Also copy any IWADs you have to the same directory.
  • If you want to run PWAD mods, create directory /switch/kgdoom/pwads/ and copy these there.
  • (Check out kgexamples.wad in pwads directory.)
  • When you start kgdoom, you will see WAD menu where you can pick IWAD, and optionally PWAD.

A manual for map editing can be found here.
