NFO from Erick194 : https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/129997
As we promised, the Doom RPG port for PC is finally here. created using SDL2 and BREW version doomrpg.mod original file reverse
engineering.
This is my first port made for PC and I hope this works for you too.
Special thanks goes to @Anarkavre as thanks to him we got the original Brew game files.
You need to get the original files to be converted into a friendly format for the port, you can get them from Archive.org, you can search
"Doom RPG BREW" on SOFTWARE menu.
Run the BarToZip program to convert the file doomrpg.bar into a DoomRPG.zip, then you run the DoomRPG.exe
Hope you enjoy it, best regards.
Updates :
The BarToZip tool is updated to generate the DoomRPG.zip file. This update allows you to convert PMD sound files to WAV without the use of the external program (PureVoice/pvconv.exe) from previous versions.
Bugfixes :
- Accuracy upgrade (+1 Accuracy) purchase is correctly added to both player and stats.
- Game prologue messages are displayed correctly with the corresponding text.
- Fixed a bug related to monster movement in the aiGoal_MOVE function.
Thanks to @tempun2 who let me know about this error.
- Monsters can now perform the second attack, as the projectile graph is displayed correctly.
This only applies to Cyberdemon and the Baron monster class.

Versions :
At least three versions of Doom RPG are currently known to exist, the older v1.0.20, v1.0.92, v1.8.94, v1.11.61 and last 1.12.98. Version 1.8.94 already had a view that takes up the entire width of the screen, rather than being contained within a small window. This change was probably done earlier, as modifications of v1.0.92 exist without letterboxing.
Version 1.11.61 has in particular the following improvements:
- Higher resolution textures
- Enhanced sound effects - v1.0.20 only had a single sound effect for item pickup, v1.11.61 has multiple sound effects
- Improved particle effects
During 2007, v1.6.84 was released. This version might only be available for S60v3 Nokia phones.
The release versions correspond with releases for different performance levels of cell phone technology.
