Hi Doom Maniacs, I'm proud to introduce my Bаtch "Batch Doom Mods Launcher" for easily launching multipleDOOM mods. I worked on it for about 20 working daysand tried to be as dynamic as possible and to workeasily, intuitively and quickly. I've been wantingto do this for a long time, since I'm bored everytime I create a new batch file for another awesome mod that many of you create. And my Doom folder hasgrown substantially in both MOD and Batch files.I wanted to have a batch file from which to play them all easily and quickly. And here it is, finally, after a lot of research and writing of the "batch script" ( I hadn't written to it beforebecause I'm a web page developer) and a lot of testing I think I managed to finish it.

Описание : Здравейте Doom маниаци, горд съм да ви представя
моя BAT "Batch Doom Mods Launcher" за лесно пускане на
много Doom модове. Аз работих по него около 20
работни дни и се постарах да е максимално динамичен
и да работи лесно, интуитивно и бързо. Исках да го
направя от доста време, тъй като ми омръзна всеки
път да създавам нов BAT файл за поредния страхотен
мод, които много от вас създават. А и папката ми
Doom нарастна значително както на мод файлове така
и на BAT файлове. Исках да имам един BAT файл от
който да пускам всички лесно и бързо. И ето го
най-накрая след доста разследване и писане на BAT
скрипт (преди не бях писал на него защото съм
програмист на уеб сайтове) и доста тестване мисля,
че успях да го завърша.

Това е структура по подразбиране в момента на разархивиране, но вътре в стартовия панел има проверки и съобщения, които да ви ориентират дали някоя папка или файл липсва. Както и как да промените тези папки по подразбиране ако желаете вътре в началото на BAT файла. Ако намерите някакви грешки или бъгове може да ми пишете за да ги оправя и да кача нова версия. Също така ако имате предожения за подобряването му няма да откажа.
Ако много ви хареса работата ми и желаете да ми направите подарък или да ме спонсорирате може да го направите чрез линка отдолу.
This is default structure in the moment of unzipping but inside launcher there have checks and messages to guide you if some folder or file missing. Also how to change these default folders if you want inside the beginning of the BAT file. If you find any bugs or bugs you can write to me to fix them and upload a new version. Also, if you have the advances to improve it, I will not refuse.
If you really like my work and want to give me a gift or sponsor me, you can do so via the link below.
