DarkagePatcher

DarkagePatcher

This tool patches the DOOM: The Dark Ages game executable for modding purposes. The patches are defined in a "patch definitions file" that is automatically downloaded and updated from the update server specified in the configuration file.

Source code available on Github: https://github.com/dcealopez/DarkAgesPatcher

Features:

• User friendly GUI to make patching the game easy.
• Backs up the game executable before applying patches (optional)
• Automatic updates for the patch definitions.
• Can be used through the command-line, no need for the GUI.
  

The patches that are currently being applied are the following:

• Skip data checksum checks (by emoose)
• Skip checking against hashes inside build-manifest (by emoose)
• Unrestrict cvars & console commands (by SunBeam)
• Unrestrict cvars launch params (by emoose)
  

Command-line usage (optional):

This tool can also be used through the command-line without using the GUI. The following arguments can be used:

--update Checks for updates and downloads them if available
--patch <file path> Patches the given game executable

Works with the current Steam game version released up to date, and will continue working for future updates (after the patch definitions file is updated)
