id Super Pack Widescreen & Mutli-Monitor Guide - Doom
Engine: GZDoom
Games Supported: Ultimate Doom, Doom II, Final Doom, Heretic, Hexen + Deathkings of Dark Citadel
Widescreen Solution: Native
Common instructions
Download GZDoom and extract it to an empty directory, and call it "GZDoom" or something like that to remind you that this contains GZDoom and all Doom engine games.
All but one of the below instructions involve copying one or two data files into the GZDoom directory. Follow as many as you like, and then run gzdoom.exe. If you only have the data file from one game in the gzdoom directory, it will automatically use that data file. If you have data files from multiple games, you'll get a menu asking which one you'd like to play. Very convenient!
The one exception is Master Levels which is a bit more involved, and has its own playing instructions.
Ultimate Doom
Go to
Copy DOOM.WAD into your GZDoom directory.
Doom II
Go to
Copy DOOM2.WAD into your GZDoom directory.
Final Doom
Go to
Copy TNT.WAD and PLUTONIA.WAD into your GZDoom directory.
Heretic
Go to
Copy HERETIC.WAD into your GZDoom directory.
Hexen
Go to
Copy HEXEN.WAD into your GZDoom directory.
Hexen: Deathkings of Dark Citadel
You must have followed the Hexen instructions beforehand.
Go to
Copy HEXDD.WAD into your GZDoom directory.
Doom II: Master Levels
This one's a bit more involved. You must have followed the Doom II instructions beforehand.
Go to
Copy the folder "wads" into your GZDoom directory. Then go to the GZDoom directory and create a file called "master.bat."
Now, edit the file, and copy and paste this into it:
