instructions

the nice and quick way

works like a charm and isn't a pain

this is the recommended method although you will need to redownload the whole thing every time you want to update

1. click on "Code"

2. click "Download ZIP"

3. drag and drop the downloaded file into your sourceport of choice or use a launcher

4. enjoy (optional)

you can also press "download (latest)" on the official website instead

the turbo nerd way

if you have some knowledge of git and/or you're a linux user this is the best option

1. open your terminal of choice

2. write git clone https://github.com/freedoom-badass-edition/freedoom-badass-edition.git and press enter

3. type in the name of the executable of your sourceport and freedoom-badass-edition following it (uzdoom freedoom-badass-edition for example) or use a launcher

4. enjoy (optional)

5. you can update by opening your terminal in the freedoom-badass-edition directory and writing git pull

the launcher way

this method is highly experimental, but it's more comfortable and easier than the other methods by far

1. go to https://github.com/freedoom-badass-edition/badass-launcher

2. click on "Releases" (you can also download the latest build artifact) (you can also press "download (launcher)" on the official website instead)

3. download badass-launcher-windows.zip if you're on windows or badass-launcher-linux.zip if you're on linux

4. launch main.exe if you're on windows or just main if you're on linux

5. click "download fdb*e"

6. select your sourceport

7. press "start game"

8. enjoy

9. you can easily update by pressing the "update fdb*e" button

the stable way

this is the most stable out of the other ones but isn't the latest

it is generally advised that you use the other methods

1. click on "Releases"

2. click "Source code"

3. drag and drop the downloaded file into your sourceport of choice or use a launcher

4. enjoy (optional)

you can also press "download (stable)" on the official website instead
