DOOM + DOOM II: Restoration Patches for 2024 KEX Engine Remasters

I am not the original creator of these game assets. All game assets belong to id Software.
These patches were made exclusively for the 2024 KEX Engine remasters. I do not recommend using these patches with other versions of DOOM.

MULTIPLAYER WILL NOT WORK WITH MODIFIED WADS. As a form of anti-cheat, Nightdive Studios made it so players cannot play online with others if they have modified wads. These patches are meant primarily for single player.

About Master Levels, No Rest for the Living, Sigil, and Legacy of Rust:
These games use Doom II’s assets for the medkit, stimpack, and berserk pack. No patching is required for these.

These patches restore various things that were altered in the KEX Engine remasters, most of which are holdovers from the previous Unity release. These patches contain the following changes.

• Medkits, stimpacks, and berserk packs all have their red crosses restored in every game.
• The Master Levels no longer use incorrect skyboxes.
• MAP31 of TNT: Evilution has an official bug fix applied to it that was missing from the 2024 release. The bug caused shotgun guys to disappear from the final area of the level.
• The Nine Inch Nails easter egg in E4M1 of DOOM has been restored.
• The Wolfenstein levels have been uncensored.

I have also included additional patches that allow people to pick and choose what they want restored. These are labeled differently from the primary patches and are in their own folder labeled “Other Options”.

Make sure to backup the files named doom.wad, doom2.wad, masterlevels.wad, plutonia.wad, and tnt.wad found in

1. Download a zip file of the patches from this Google Drive link: Link to the zip file.[drive.google.com]
2. Once downloaded, unzip them using your preferred tool. If you are unable to unzip the file, I recommend using 7zip.
3. From here, you’re going to need a BPS patcher. You can either use hack64’s online patcher via your web browser, or you can install an offline application like Floating IPS (Flips) or beat to apply the patches offline.
4. Find the WAD you want to patch in
   <steam-library>\steamapps\common\Ultimate Doom\rerelease

   Once found, open it and the patch you want in the BPS patcher and apply the patch. Once your patch is applied, rename the newly created wad to the name of the original wad and place it in

   <steam-library>\steamapps\common\Ultimate Doom\rerelease

The crosses are red instead of green.

Red crosses.

You guessed it. The red cross is restored.

Black Tower
You can actually see the titular tower again!

Cloudy…

Neat!
