Q: The Final DOOM expansions and the Master Levels are shown in the expansion list on DOOM II but when I select them they show "Missing Expansion" message what gives?
A: Classic RBDOOM 3 BFG supports the Final DOOM expansions and the master levles, but in order to play them then you need:
1. To own them (obviously)
2. a)Copy the WADs (TNT.WAD and PLUTONIA.WAD) to \base\wads
b) Copy the "wads" folder from Master Levels to \base\wads and rename it "master"
and you are good to go.
Q: Can I use mods for DOOM 3 BFG Edition with that? (like @UltimateHD or Hi Def)
A: Yes,yes you can
Q: Can I use brutal DOOM with that?
A: No, you can't. Classic RBDOOM 3 BFG Edition has same mod compatibility with the DOS engine and with the addition of built-in DEUSF and DEHACKED. The brutal DOOM mod uses zdoom additional features (which are not available on this mod)
Q: Where I can Find the source code / 32-bit executables?
A: Here : Github.com
Q: Is there any launcher for this mod?
A: Yes, the launcher is bundled with the main binaries on every release it's called CDL.exe
Q: What is "Mod base" in the launcher?
A: Mod Base is like setting a expansion. Well in this case you can set a resource mod (aka a mod that adds graphics,sfx and other files that the main mod doesn't change). So in some way first it loads the mod base and then the mod.
Q: I have seen that this mod is having hud on third Person view, Can you put it on the original Doom 3?
A: Sadly No, but I have manage to put the changes on individual source code files of Doom 3.
Here is the link : Drive.google.com
Q: I have found an amazing mod for the original Doom 3 and I want to port it on BFG is there any way to do it if I am not a Modder?
A: Yes, there is. With every release there is and a tool named "pk4toBFG.exe", this tool allows you to extract .pk4 files in a single directory allowing you to load this mod on BFG.
Q: Can I still get Steam Achievements with this?
A: Yes, if you download Open Platform with Steam and extract the desired OpenPlatform.dll to the game's base directory and the steam_api to the executable directory and make a steam_appid.txt on the executable's directory and write in it the game's steam id.
Q: Donation?
A: Patreon
(NOTE: Some mods might not be compatible with BFG, in that case ask the original Modder if he/she can port his/her mod to BFG, don't ask me for that)

This is what should've been in BFG Edition by default. Great kudos to RobertBeckebans and MoDFaNGuy for this.

Where are the instructions? The installer just says "welcome to doom 3 bfa installer" and doesnt do anything.
There should be a "next" button at the bottom of the window
I have the GOG version of Doom 3: BFG Edition and Windows 10. Your mod crashes as soon as the various start up/company movies are done playing and won't actually even get to the title screen.
Can you send me a logfile of the game (not a Windows Event) ?
How do I get this to work with "Allied Marine Squadmates"?
If simple extraction of the .pk4 is not working then it's possible incompatible
MoDFaNGuy,
thank you so much for this piece of gold that is your mod. Just finished unmodded playthrough and am really looking forward to combining your work with the UHD Mod. It always warms my heart when I see how much effort people put into the games they love. So, thank you very much!
Hi,
thanks for this mod, when I try to run BFA exe or via the launcher, nothing happens even tho Doom 3 BFG will launch on its own, thanks for any help.
In general for issues it helps better to send me the log file of the game.
In order to create it just run the game with the launch argument +set logfile 1.
Then go to C:\Users\<username>\id Software\DOOM BFA\base and send me with pm the qconsole.log
P.S.: Yes, I just copy pasted it. Also try to run it with +set r_fullscreen 0
Hi,
+set r_fullscreen 0 worked, Does BFA use a separate config to BFG?
Yes, it does. Also what are your monitor specs ( resolution, refresh rate and color depth)?
Hi,
Thanks for your help, I changed the resolution settings in the cfg and everything works fine now, My monitor res is 3440 x 2160 refresh is 60hzz. Quick question regarding old mods, I've been trying to get petmod 2.7 working after running pk4tobfg and setting the destination to the BFG folder, is that all i should need to do?
If the mod doesn't use game.dll, then is probably fine (scripts and lang files might be incompatible tho).
