A addon for Brutal Doom that replaces it's weapons with Beautiful Dooms, still keeps that Doom feel and makes those who are accustomed to Brutal Doom happy. This is a port of what I think is Brutal Dooms cousin from being GZDoom only to being Zandronum compatible, it has all it's default features from it's GZDoom version, Multiplayer also works rather well. I did this conversion to get myself situated with what is compatible with Zandronum and what isn't since I can't find anything anywhere that tells what version of ZDoom it uses.

UPDATE 2: Since May 21, 2013 I have made this only work when loaded after Brutal Doom, since then Brutal Doom is now a requirement for this mod
UPDATE: Since the old system of Beautiful doom was super strict I have now made it basically a addon for Brutal Doom that replaces it's weapons with Beautiful Dooms, still keeps that Doom feel and makes those who are accustomed to Brutal Doom happy
Another mod which should enhance Doom. Actually, there're many such mods,
but I decided to pay more attention to moments which are often forgotten:
smooth weapon animation, new sounds, etc. I slightly enhanced weapons,
but I tried to follow the idea "still Doomy, just better".
WEAPONS reworked vanilla weapons: they have smooth animation, new sounds, new graphics for Plasmagun and Chainsaw, empty casings, smoke, enhanced bulletpuffs with ricochet and four slight modifications:
1. Fist doesn't alert enemies.
2. Pistol firerate is faster (1 shot per 12 tics instead of 14 tics).
3. SuperShotgun makes dual shot with primary attack and single shot
with secondary attack (if one barrel is empty, primary attack reloads it).
4. Chaingun has an alternative attack with twice as fast firespeed, but it
requires spinning at first and cooling after.
There some other enhancing effects. In addition ammo is replaced to add new
pickup sounds.
Player is also changed: he's higher (normally in Doom the player is too small).
Berserk replacement is included, because it's necessary for the new Fist.
This wad also contains enhanced blood.

v8:
Fixed no pain sound with marines
Added some of Brutal Dooms deaths (Plasma Death, Fire Death, XDeath)
Added the blood that shows on the screen when taking damage
v7:
Fixed most of the monsters projectiles to how it was in Beautiful Doom
Zombieman fixed to have a pistol instead of a rifle like he was in Beautiful Doom
SSG no longer reloads when out of ammo
Most monster tracers now use the EnBulletPuff instead of Brutal Dooms bullet puff
Fixed the Chaingun and Rocket Launcher pickup sprites being Brutal Dooms
"Beautiful Dooms"? Did you mean weapons?
Yeah I'm not exactly sure what this mod adds despite the description. Is this an additional sub-mod that enhances the sound and animation of weapons?
From what I see from trying it, it pretty much swaps out the Brutal Doom weapons with souped-up Vanilla ones. Pretty handy if you ever wanted to play Brutal Doom without the new weapons.
that comes with the mutators
No. the Simple weapons mutator still uses new graphics for the weapons. All that mutator does is remove the alt fires/reload key. Beautifully Brutal Doom uses vanilla weapon textures that have been refined (and it replaces the plasma gun and chainsaw with a new version).
Yeah, I've got to agree there, although it dose add smother textures... I like it...
Umm, my Zandronum cannot continue the execution. It Says that
"Script error, "BDoomZD_BrutalCompatible_v8.wad:BD_WEAP" line 29:
Replaced type 'HitPuff' not found in EnBulletPuff"
Load brutal doom first.
Huh, this thing now works. Thanks. (:
Why this BFG graphic is not in Brutal Doom?
i load brutal doom first and doesnt work !
Sir, I tried to do it, but still the same error occurred:
"Script error, "BDoomZD_BrutalCompatible_v8.wad:BD_WEAP" line 29:
Replaced type 'HitPuff' not found in EnBulletPuff"
What do you mean that I should "load Brutal Doom first"? Sorry, I just couldn't get it...
i load brutal doom first and it doesnt work !
Try using ZDL if you haven't and launch your game with brutal doom being the top external file. This ensures it's loaded first before all other mods.
once again, another mod i want that wont work
10/10 good job
