Integration of D00M-M0D ZIP/7z files into RetroPie.
Includes D00M M0D Loader Menu that can be Launched from anywhere or Installed.
Additionally make use of the Runcommand Launch Menu to Pre-Load D00M M0Ds.
Press [A] to Configure -> EXIT WITHOUT LAUNCHING to Pre-Load One or MORE D00M M0Ds.
Additionally Manage [srb2] and [srb2kart] AddOns along with D00M M0Ds.
Before you get started:
A D00M P0RT such as lzdoom lr-prboom prboom-plus should be INSTALLED
Place your [M0D].ZIP/PK3/PK7 Files in: ~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/mods/*
HOW DOES IT WORK?
DAZI will Extract [ZIPs] [7z] Files and Load [M0Ds] into Doom [AddOnDIRs]
-
LZDOOM:
[lzdoom-addon] Loads M0Ds from ADDON [..roms/ports/doom/addon/]
[lzdoom-dazi] Loads M0Ds from TMPFS [/dev/shm/addon/]
[lzdoom-dazi+] Loads M0Ds from BOTH [TMPFS+ADDON] in that 0rder
[lzdoom-dazi+warp] Loads from [TMPFS+ADDON] and Includes [-WARP -SKILL] -
PRBOOM-PLUS:
[prboom-plus] Loads M0Ds from [..configs/prboom-plus/autoload/doom-all]
[prboom-plus+warp] Loads from [../doom-all] and Includes [-WARP -SKILL] -
LR-PRBOOM:
[lr-prboom] Loads M0Ds based on the Config File [DOOMWADDIR/prboom.cfg]
DAZI can AutoGenerate a [prboom.cfg] based on [addonDIR] when Installed
If you want 1-Run-N-Done:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RapidEdwin08/dazi/main/lzdoom-dazi.sh -P /dev/shm/; sudo chmod 755 /dev/shm/lzdoom-dazi.sh; mv /dev/shm/lzdoom-dazi.sh /dev/shm/lzdoom-dazi-tmp.sh; /dev/shm/lzdoom-dazi-tmp.shIf you want to Put the Install Script in the retropiemenu [+Icon]:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RapidEdwin08/dazi/main/lzdoom-dazi.sh -P ~/RetroPie/retropiemenu
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RapidEdwin08/dazi/main/lzdoom-dazi.png -P ~/RetroPie/retropiemenu/icons0ptionally you can Add an Entry [+Icon] to your retropiemenu [gamelist.xml]:
Example Entry:
<game>
<path>./lzdoom-dazi.sh</path>
<name>[lzdoom] DAZI</name>
<desc>Configure [lzdoom-dazi] for [RetroPie].</desc>
<image>/home/pi/RetroPie/retropiemenu/icons/lzdoom-dazi.png</image>
</game>
If you want to GIT it All:
cd ~
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/RapidEdwin08/dazi.git
chmod 755 ~/dazi/lzdoom-dazi.sh
cd ~/dazi && ./lzdoom-dazi.sh
TIPs:
AVOID using [S P A C E S] and [$PEC!AL CH@RACT€R$] in your M0D NAMEs
Some M0Ds already come as [ZIP] since ZDoom supports Loading [ZIP] but
You can RENAME [ZIP] -> [pk3] if you want to Ignore Extraction by DAZI
eg. [strayDoom.v01.zip] -> [strayDoom_v01.pk3]
[ipk3] files typically do not Require you to Load a Main [iwad] but
You can RENAME [ipk3] -> [pk3] and load a [fakeiwad.wad] or [doom2.wad]
[pk3/pk7] are Compressed Files Already, NO NEED to ZIP Individually
[WADs] can be Compressed, but can take time to Extract if LARGE
LARGE [WADs] might EXCEED the Size of [/dev/shm/] (tmpfs) on some HW
[deh] and [bex] DEHACKED Files are Conditionally Supported with DAZI
[bex] Files are Dehacked Files Supported by B00M Compatible P0RTs Only
[deh] Files in lzdoom must be Specified in the Loading 0rder using -deh
A [deh] File Added to a WAD can be Loaded in lzdoom Normally with -file
A [deh] File Added to a WAD is also supported by BOTH lzdoom/lr-prboom
eg. Create a NEW WAD with SLADE -> Import the [Custom.deh] File ALONE
RENAME the Imported [deh] "DEHACKED" -> Save file [Custom_deh.wad]
The DAZI Generate prboom.cfg Feature Follows [deh.wad] Naming Scheme
[ZIPs] are good to use with Individual MAPs/MEGAWADs to Save Space
ADD Numeric 0rder to the NAME(s) before Compressing MAPs/MEGAWADs
eg. [aaliens.wad] 135MB -> (01_aaliens.wad) -> [aaliens.zip] 37MB
[ZIPs] are good to use with Smaller M0Ds that have lots of files
eg. The 0riginal [AliensTC] is Small and has numerous files to Load
PLACE YOUR [D00M-M0D] FILES INTO A [D00M-M0D.ZIP]
NAME THEM ACCORDINGLY IF A PARTICULAR L0ADING 0RDER IS NEEDED
EXAMPLE [D00M-M0D.ZIP] CONTENTS
./D00M-M0D.ZIP/01-FileToLoad.wad
./D00M-M0D.ZIP/02-FileToLoad.pk3
./D00M-M0D.ZIP/03-FileToLoad.pk7
MODIFY [DAZI-Template.sh] TO INCLUDE YOUR [doomWAD] + [doomMOD#s]
Use FULL PATHs and AVOID SPACES for your [doomWAD] + [doomMOD#s]
# EXAMPLE [DAZI-Template.sh] CONTENTS #
doomWAD=~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/doom2.wad
doomMOD1=~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/mods/brutalv21.pk3
doomMOD2=~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/mods/hellonearthstarterpack.wad
HOW TO PRE-LOAD D00M M0Ds using the [Runcommand Launch Menu]:
Select and Load a D00M-MOD using the [DAZI-Template.sh]
PRESS [A] BUTTON TO CONFIGURE (Before the ROM Loads)
[EXIT WITHOUT LAUNCHING]
The Last D00M-M0D Selected will Still be Loaded in [/dev/shm/addon]
Now Select any 0ther Desired D00M R0M and Launch with [lzdoom-dazi]
Or Repeat the Process to Pre-Load more D00M-M0Ds
HOW TO PRE-LOAD D00M M0Ds using the [dazi-mod-loader] MENU:
[dazi-mod-loader] is Included for use with [lzdoom-addon]/[lzdoom-dazi]
Use [dazi-mod-loader] from this Script directly, 0r Install it and...
Configure it to Always Load when the [doom] P0RT Launches
HOW LEVEL WARP WITH DAZI:
Use the M0D Loader Menu to SELECT [Episode] [Map] [Difficulty] Settings:
DAZI will Stream-Edit [emulators.cfg] to APPLY [-warp -skill ] Settings
Select appropriate WARP Emulator [lzdoom-dazi+warp] or [prboom-plus+warp]
Warp+Difficulty Examples [-warp E# M# -skill S#]:

prboom.cfg Files
[prboom.cfg] Files are Required for Loading M0Ds with [lr-prboom]
DAZI can Generate [prboom.cfg] Files based on [addonDIR] Contents
[prboom.cfg] Files Loaded by DAZI get Cached in [addonDIR/.0ther]
@runcommand-onlaunch:
DAZI will MOVE [addonDIR/.0ther/prboom.cfg] to [doomWADdir/doomWADname]
DAZI will COPY [prbmsav?.dsg] Gamesaves to [doomWADdir/doomWADname]
DAZI will MAKE [prboom.cfg] File if Not Found [doomWADdir/doomWADname]
@runcommand-onend:
DAZI will MOVE the Last Running [prboom.cfg] -> [prboom.cfg.last]
DAZI will MOVE back any [prbmsav?.dsg] Gamesaves to DEFAULT Location
[srb2] and [srb2kart] AddOns:
DAZI can configure the [srb2] and [srb2kart] AddOns CUSTOM Directory to D00M M0Ds
[srb2] AddOns DEFAULT
