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)

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

does perfected doom 3 work with this????
EDITL: Nevermind, it's OK now.
Is it possible to get steam achievements while using this?
Well you can always try 1.1.12.8 and check : Github.com
Great mod, but... How to install it? I extracted the files into the DOOM 3 BFG Edition folder, and Nothing Happens? No Launcher?
Run the CDL.exe to open the launcher.
You can also right click on it and select send to -> Desktop to get a shortcut
I can't seem to find a file named "CDL.exe" in the "Classic RBDOOM3 BFG Edition" folder. I Installed it from the Github mirror, because Moddb won't let me download anything. Here is the link Github.com
Did you downloaded the binaries from here ?
Github.com
You can also try nexus
Nexusmods.com
I don't think so.. but, thank you! I tried this Github link you gave me and it worked! But, in DOOM 3 I'm getting alot of lag even though i turned off all the advanced settings. Any help? I need DOOM 3 with the Original Flashlight.
Specs?
Are you using a laptop? If so have you set it to use your dGPU?(AMD or nVIDIA)
Yes, I'm using a Laptop.
Specs:
My Hewlett-Packard laptop's edition is Windows 7 Ultimate
Processor: Intel core i3 CPU, 2.53 GHZ
RAM: 3GB
GPU: Intel HD Graphics (I know, It's bad...)
Sadly, I don't have any dGPUs..
Also, When i play the Normal DOOM 3: BFG Edition or Vanilla DOOM 3 they run smoothly.. But, with Classic RBDOOM3BFG There is alot of Lag.
Give a try to +set r_skipIntelWorkarounds 1 (possible it will make things worse or not)
It worked! but, i want to ask some questions:
(1): I got a mod for Vanilla DOOM 3 that i converted to DOOM 3 BFG (With pk4toBFG), but, i got some files but i don't know where to put them..
(2): I want to load my latest save file from the Normal DOOM 3 BFG (Delta Labs Sector 5)but, i can't load it in Classic RBDOOM 3BFG
(3): In the Launcher's Advanced Settings, there is a setting called "Exposure", What does that setting do to the performance/gameplay?
And, Thank you for making this masterpiece.
(1) pk4toBFG is extracting the files from pk4 files to a directory. Just load this directory as a Mod (or ModBase) and you are good to go
(2) If you already tried to copy paste the save files from C:\Users\<Your-User-Name>\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM 3 BFG
to C:\Users\<Your-User-Name>\Saved Games\id Software\RBDOOM 3 BFG and it doesn't work the you better start a new game (Even through I believe at least on Doom 3 the vanilla save files should be compatible)
(3) I think it's the HDR exposure which obviously affect HDR lighting
I tried loading the directory that i converted the mod into in the Launcher as a Mod/Mod Base, but, It Crashes the Game before the Game Selection menu comes up. Here is the link of the mod Gamebanana.com, Any fix?
Open the weapon_pistol.script with a notepad program (preferably notepad++) and put // on the begin of lines 43-46 and 100
Still won't work...
What error it shows??
It still crashes, sadly.. Hope you can fix this problem.
When it crashes doesn't show a window with a blue screen?
Are you using the legacy edition?
No, after it crashes it sends me to the desktop. No Blue Screens..
No, I'm using Classic RBDOOM3BFG 1.1.12.3
When it crashes?
It crashes when the credit screen appears (That is before the Game Selection menu comes up).
Put this on the Additional Parameters +set logfile 1
Run the game
and then go to C:\Users\<Your-User-Name>\Saved Games\id Software\RBDOOM 3 BFG\base and open the qconsole.txt and copy paste it's text here
I'm very sorry, but, I had to switch to Vanilla DOOM 3, Because it is Mod Compatible, and Easy to Use. Thank you for your hard work.
