DoomFront is an era mod that brings Marines and Demons inspired by the classic Doom games as well as the 2016 reboot of the series into the gameplay style of Battlefront II.
Play as the Marines or Demons in venues based off of id Software's classic titles, duking it out in Team Deathmatch or fighting to secure domination over the battlefield in Conquest.
Factions:
Available/supported maps in the first release will include:
Not everything in the first release will be what I want it to be or what it should be, but this is a mod, not a game release, so that's okay. As time goes on and I get the chance to work on it more, the mod will receive a bit more spit and polish (and content) with each release. That's the plan, anyway.
This has primarily been an interesting side project for me, but I do want to slowly roll out more content for the mod, as I've said. In the future perhaps some additional units, additional maps, and a couple 'heroes' may make their debut.
And no, this mod's existence doesn't mean I've forgotten about the Post-Endor mod, or the WW2 mod, or BF3 Legacy PC/PS2 :)
First Release: Out now Moddb.com
Detailed credits for each mod release will be available in a text document adjacent and separate from the readme within the archive containing the mod.
With that said, a huge shoutout goes to Pandemic Studios and GameToast for making all this possible. The community has been nothing short of amazing, and the original devs created such a great game. Furthermore, great respect is due to the original developers of the Doom IP, from the veterans of id Software to current day ZeniMax media, and all those who have worked on music, content, or ports pertaining to Doom.
Additionally, special thanks to pierce-needle for his work on the Cacodemon, as well as RevanSithLord for the lovely banner that graces this page.

0. Make sure you have Anakin's Remaster already installed and are capable of running mods. You could use the 1.3 patch, but the new HUD requires Anakin's Remaster, so you will get a buggy interface if you use anything but.
0a. Sleepkiller's Shaderpatch is practically a requirement - this was developed with Shaderpatch in mind, so it
will not look right if you do not have it installed.
1. Download the Mod. You will get a file called Doomfront.7z

Is this mod still standing? As a Doom fan I am quite interested in these add-ons with the theme, especially Doom 2016.
I mean, it's still up for download? Sometimes I still inch towards progress on the next version, either Xbox or PC
Uh yeah, could I get a couple galactic conquest campaigns outta' this?
That's something I'd love to do one day once there are more maps that have the era supported!
Bro. This is a wicked idea.
Are there plans to add the Argenta as a faction as well as Maykrs
Hey! great mod, I was wondering if you'd ever consider doing a Duke Nukem 3D mod for Battlefront 2? maybe you could recreate Hollywood Holocaust and some of the maps from Lunar Apocalypse since they are space themed. You could have the side for Duke and the other side could have the different aliens including the Battlelord.
By unbelievable coincidence, this mod actually exists. I had a very similar idea (though I'm no modder so I never went through on it) for making a Doom-inspired map in Battlefront. But this is far more ambitious. You've just combined two of my all time favorite games, this is a must-download.
I did not expect a mod like this to exist. I gotta try this out.
Very fun mod. I did a video on it Youtu.be
