GZDoom FOR MAC

GZDoom is designed to offer you the possibility to play the classic Doom games, and other titles based on the same engine, on your Mac. The port can detect various IWAD files, and you get to select the one you want to use.

To install the GZDoom port, you need to move the utility to the Applications folder and then navigate to the GZDoom user directory placed in the Library folder and move there the IWAD files you want to use.

Note that the GZDoom software package includes extra resources, such as extensive documentation for the port, and a utility that can launch the GZDoom user folder in a new Finder window.

Just move the .wad files for the Doom engine based games in the /Library/Application Support/GZDoom folder for the application to detect them.

When you start the GZDoom app, the utility scans the library for available IWADs and lists the supported entries in its main window. Here you can see the source .wad files and the name of the contained games.

GZDoom also offers you the possibility to include additional parameters. Just use the Finder menu to navigate to the source parameters files, and GZDoom will apply them when loading the game.

Once all these details are taken care of, GZDoom launches the games, and you will be able to play the classic titles just like you would do on your old game console. Note that GZDoom even provides support for saving games, so you can continue playing where you left off.

GZDoom offers you the possibility to experience the classic Doom shooter games on the comfort of your Mac, by using OpenGL rendering. Take into account the utility only provides support for running the .wad files, so you need to find and download the IWADs on your own.
