## What are the Official Addons wads?
|
|
|
|
[Doom Wiki - Official Addons](https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Official_add-ons)
|
|
|
|
## 2024 KEX Engine Version
|
|
|
|
Bethesta updated the DOOM + DOOM II listing to a new KEX Engine as of **2024-08-08**
|
|
|
|
The KEX Engine version of `DOOM + DOOM II` have spread out the files and assigned a random BethestaNet ID number to wads as their filename.
|
|
|
|
### Steam - KEX
|
|
|
|
#### Where are the base core iwads?
|
|
|
|
`~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Ultimate Doom/rerelease/`
|
|
|
|
You can also find the location by
|
|
|
|
1. `Right Click` on `DOOM + DOOM II` in Steam.
|
|
2. Press `Properties`.
|
|
3. Go to the `Installed Files` tab.
|
|
4. Press the `Browse` button.
|
|
|
|
This folder does not only contain the base versions of `DOOM.WAD` + `DOOM2.WAD` but also:
|
|
|
|
| Name | Creator | WAD name |
|
|
| :--- | :--- | :---: |
|
|
| Extras | id Software, Nerve Software | `EXTRAS.WAD` |
|
|
| Master Levels | id Software | `MASTERLEVELS.WAD` |
|
|
| No Rest for the Living | Nerve Software | `NERVE.WAD` |
|
|
| The Plutonia Experiment | Dario Casali & Milo Casali | `PLUTONIA.WAD` |
|
|
| SIGIL | Romero Games | `SIGIL.WAD` |
|
|
| TNT: Evilution | Team TNT | `TNT.WAD` |
|
|
| Legacy of Rust | id Software, Nightdive Studios, MachineGames | `ID1.WAD`, `ID1-WEAP.WAD`, `ID1-RES.WAD`, `ID24RES.WAD`, `IDDM1.WAD`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisite: Download the Official Addons
|
|
|
|
Go from the `Main Menu` -> `Mods Menu` -> `Featured Mods` for most of the big mods like SIGIL 2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Steam DOOM DLC Mods Location
|
|
|
|
All of the BethestaNet Wads are located in:
|
|
|
|
`~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/2280/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Saved Games/Nightdive Studios/DOOM/bnetwads/`
|
|
|
|
Each .wad downloaded have it's own sub-folder based on an internal ID and contains the `.wad` file and a `index.json` file.
|
|
|
|
Opening the `index.json` file in each folder will tell you what game the `.wad` is.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Example SIGILII:**
|
|
|
|
`~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/2280/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Saved Games/Nightdive Studios/DOOM/bnetwads/585d6a05-e50c-4ad7-aac7-726d35d23a50/`
|
|
|
|
Contains the `index.json` and `585d6a05-e50c-4ad7-aac7-726d35d23a50.wad`
|
|
|
|
Opening the `index.json`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"id" : "585d6a05-e50c-4ad7-aac7-726d35d23a50", <-- Mod's BethestaNet ID
|
|
"title" : "SIGIL II", <-- Mod Title
|
|
"version" : "2ed265fd-6fdf-45a5-a078-35811549ce3b", <-- Current uploaded version (for updates)
|
|
"wad" : "585d6a05-e50c-4ad7-aac7-726d35d23a50.wad" <-- The Wad file
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It reveals that `585d6a05-e50c-4ad7-aac7-726d35d23a50.wad` is in fact `SIGILII.WAD`.
|
|
|
|
You can then copy and paste it into `retrodeck/roms/doom/` and rename it to `SIGILII.WAD`.

#### How to extract them?
|
|
|
|
Each file is located in the `WADs/` folder from the step above with an ID number that you can check on the list.
|
|
|
|
**Example: Sigil**
|
|
|
|
Sigil has the ID of `4` and is then located in the `/WADs/4/` folder.
|
|
|
|
Within that folder there are images and also a file without an extension just called `4`.
|
|
That `4` file is the `SIGIL.WAD` file.
|
|
|
|
All you need to do is copy the ``/WADs/4/4` file to `retrodeck/roms/doom` then rename it `SIGIL.WAD`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### DOOM Unity Version - Extra: Windows tips
|
|
|
|
If you want to move the WADs from a Windows installations instead you can use this software:
|
|
[Unity Doom Ripper](https://github.com/kevansevans/Unity-Doom-Ripper)
|
|
|
|
The WADs are located in
|
|
|
|
`My Documents\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM 2\WADs\`
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
`My Documents\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM Classic\WADs\`
|
|
|
|
Then just transfer them with a USB Stick or another way to your Linux machine.
