[UPDATED] Hakros Doom Launcher 1.6

Recommended Posts

Video demo

 

 

The app allows you to combine any mod, addon or map easily with just a few clicks

You only need to select the iwad of the game, mods, addons and maps and press launch button.

Not all mods and addons are compatibles but is funny to try multiple combinations

I like the thumbnail-based organization, that's something I feel is missing from other Doom launchers.

Hello
  
It seems that you have a missing a file, but I do not understand why because it is inside the zip file

 

I've downloaded file just now and it has all files.

 

I recommend you to download the program again, or if you prefer directly, the missing file from this link:
  

https://www.doomlauncher.com/download/hakroscontrols
  
And then copy it to the program directory (beside of exe file)
  
Greetings

I have a couple questions about this launcher:

 

-Is Deathkings of the Dark Citadel supported by the launcher? I didn't see it when I tried it, so I don't know if it's something that needs to be added or if it's elsewhere. 

 

-Is there/will there be a list option for the game/mod selection menus?

1) I've tried just now and it works. You need to add the expansion wad (Deathkings of the Dark Citadel) as a mod or map and use the iwad of hexen to play it.

2) Regarding this, sorry but I do not understand what you mean exactly.

1) I gotcha, I'll check that out

2) What I meant was like a list format for the IWADs and mods, so the IWADs/mods can be viewed as a list alternatively to the picture format. Like instead of pictures of names of each mod/ IWAD, it'd be like a list with thumbnails next to the name of the mod or something. I don't know if I explained it right, but I can further specify if needed.

Ok, I'm working now on next version and i don`t have this feature planned for this version but I'll take a look and if i can't add it now.....i'll try to do at next one.

 

For now if you want to have a thumbnail you need to create a preset for each mod.

 

PS: I added your suggestion to official thread...

I just got and set up the 1.5 version, it looks and functions very nicely in comparison with the previous version. Being able to maximize the window and change the theme is a great touch, and I got everything set up just the way I needed. Thank you, Hakros!

Oh man this launcher is nice and it even supports Eternity Engine and PKE properly. My only problem with it is that for some reason it won't work when a SweetFX installation is inside Eternity Engine's folder. I can run the engine .exe just fine and the FOINE CRT effects make the world a better place, but when launching the same .exe with Hakro's Doom Launcher, the startup happens and then instantly it exits to the Launcher again. Any idea why this happens?

The launcher seems to somehow always delete .pke files after it's been closed.

Yes, this is an error that has already been reported to me.
Thanks for advising.

This must be because my app is 100% compatible with GZDOOM, LZDOOM and ZDOOM, other sourceports are not compatible with all mods, addons and maps for that reason i prepared the program to run with these three sourceports while other can works partially.

Yes, your resolution its very low.
Although the program should work with a minimum of 1000x760 dpi

I'll check it out for next release !

This launcher is amazing, thanks for doing this

 

I have an issue with load order however. It seems that no matter how I set it up, or even save it as a preset, the order gets completely ignored once I launch GZDoom. I've also noticed the order gets reset as soon as the launcher's window loses focus
