Doom II - 2x monster health (map 29)

While it's more common to double the firepower of weapons when modifying the game files, I doubled the monster hit points instead, and then played through map 29 (The Living End) on ultra-violence skill level.

Now it's a bit harder to waste ammo when firing those big guns. :)

How did u make them stronger?

I used a program called "WhackEd2" to create a custom .DEH-file. You should be able to find it on some of the Doom fansites.

is there any doom mods/wads that when playing it spawns double the amount of enemies?

[C2S07]

None that I've heard of, but I don't know that much about Doom mods, so try asking someone more knowledgeable.

If there was, though, I wouldn't expect it to work perfectly in tight spaces, depending on how the feature is implemented. Some of the spawned, additional monsters might get stuck in nearby walls, for example (if the space is limited).

Ah the Doom series, great games, haven't played them in years!

I especially like the background music tracks in the first two Doom games.

@anthony221 Try nightmare. monster respawn after death.

I should try this, along with a mod I made that makes the handgun and shotgun (accidentally) less powerful and ammo is less plentiful. I always thought Hell's minions were pussies.

Especially the zombies! Former marines/UAC guards my butt!
