This is basically Brutal Doom with none of the gameplay changes... just the blood and gore, nothing else. This is for compatibility with Total Conversions. Another advantage is that it can be used for any IWAD (except Strife and Hacx)... so I guess you could call it very lite brutal doom.
Many people requested me a version of Brutal Doom without any gameplay modifications at all. I created Brutal Doom Lite, but it still had the custom deaths that would make TCs unplayable, plus modified enemy AI that would modify the gameplay.
Ketchup is a plain gore mod. Nothing in the gameplay is changed. Just gibs and more gibs for your satisfaction. All enemies can be gibed. Even your chainsaw and plasma rifle can sometimes gib enemies.
So... why is this called an Universal Gore Mod? Because this is not a gore mod for Doom, it's a gore mod for any game that can run on the zdoom-based engines. It's a ludicrous gibs mod for Doom, Freedoom, Heretic, HeXen, Strife, and anything else in a single half mb file.
For now, Doom, Freedoom, HeXen, Heretic, and Chex Quest can be played with it. Strife and Hacx support is planned, and maybe modified versions to work with wads such as kdizd, NeoDoom, Return of the Triad, and others.
You can play this with Samsara, just make sure to load Samsara first, and make Ketchup stuff get loaded after it. The only compatibility issue is that Chex Warrior will not able to teleport enemies, they will just die. But I think this is not an issue in a gore mod.

Test 4 changelog:
- Modified some decals.
- Blood no longer creates splashes or step sounds on wads that have this kind of stuff in TERRAIN lumps.
- Improved compatibility with Particle Fire Enhancer Mod
- [Doom] Increased gib health of Zombies and Imps from 9 to 11, and now they cant be gibed by pistols anymore.
- [Chex Quest] Added some junk pieces from Brutal Strife that are spawned when armoured enemies such as the Armored Bipedicus dies.
Anyone know how to get this working on Strife and Hacx?
On Strife it kind of works, as huge amount of blood is pouring when you shoot someone. But you won't get any gibbing action. I suggest you try Brutal Strife, it was released not so long ago. It's still not finished, but gibbing works fine.
If you know the DECORATE language then probably you can fix it by yourself, therefore, i don't really know
Amazing work. This worked great with the classic Fistful of Doom WAD!
Finally found it!
Must have
the ketchupmod chrashes gzdoom using the new version (v0.9) of freedoom in the first level.
Oh my gosh you know about freedoom??? That's what I use! And this mod will be great! Enemies won't be powerful, no fatalities, uses normal doom weapons (plus other weapon mods), use custom player skins, and yeah lots of blood. This is also what I'm looking for in my list.
mod makes more blood, but death animations don't work or freeze. any help here?
i really need help with this
This mod makes Chex Quest bearable! With it, the Flemmoids burst into green giblets when they are shot!
Can this addon be updated to the latest version of Brutal Doom?
gonna try this to zion mod
This mod is great apart from the sound effects. The sound effects are way too loud and sound totally out of place during gameplay.

Can Ketchup be used only with ZDoom instead of GZDoom, in case one would like to do it?
This was so easy to use with Heretic. Looks great!!
he works with hacx and strife but the sprites are no changed
