How heavy is your WAD folder?

[Kwisior]

Mine is currently on 6,4GB. It has about 290 different files (not all of them are WAD files) all sorted into categories. I'm curious if that's considered big on this site.

 

Edit: It actually says something like 330/340 items, but I counted all the files within categories and subcategories, and came out with about 290, as mentioned above.

Less then 2 GB and that is including all the base IWAD's, several editors (Doombuilder, WinZeth, Slade, Eureka) and some source ports. There are other locations available where I have stored DOOM related things . . .

[DreadWanderer]

Currently almost 11 GB, though about 4.5 of that consists of TCs like Ashes, Shrine, the whole Doom 64 CE suite, and their associated mods. I keep a separate folder for maps and map packs which is about 5.1 GB.

My woof folder is an absolute nightmare.

[Devalaous]

12 GB, '11,890 Files'

Files on a computer have no substance (besides information and electrons), and as such take up no mass.

[Andrea Rovenski]

8.6 GB for my main folder, not including demos

[No-Man Baugh]

My Doom mods folder: DOOM_SHTUFF

 

16.7 GB (17,954,213,714 bytes)

10,402 Files, 795 Folders

 

This includes my IWADs, Doomkid's Big Vanilla Wad Pack, and a collection of unorganized wads from a previous machine that probably contains duplicates on top of all the properly sorted wads

 

Even after sorting and deleting wads from my unorganized folder; I can guarantee that DOOM_SHTUFF is only going to grow

7.26 GB (7,796,625,408 bytes)

324 Files, 34 Folders

 

Have actually played probably like a quarter of them

I'm secretly hoping that skillsaw's Doom folder is around 50 GB, with half being megawads in progress to keep us busy for the next 10 years, and the other half comprised of beautiful sprites and textures that he'll eventually release for any mapper to use.

[Cutman 999]

3.30 GB. Including all the iwads, a lot of pwads and weird .bat files to run things in proper complevels. Amount of items is 224

[Downcologo one]

1,78 gb 

[Firedust]

Currently sitting at just over 15gb. Supercharge is the only mod I've got.

[Goldar]

12.1GB, 200 folders.

 

I kind of got obsessed with Doom again during lockdown.

[Capellan]

There are under 1GB of WADs on my system, even including backup copies made by the map editor.  I keep very little after I've played it.

 

[BeachThunder]

26.7 GB (28,754,398,143 bytes) o_O

[EPICALLL]

374 Megabytes. Granted, a lot of the wads on my computer are in the downloads, so in reality, it's upwards of a gigabyte.

[rita remton]

currently a total of 74.7gb, but have only played 25% of the wads :P

[kalensar]

52.2 GB for me. 

 

That's including quite a few mods and TCs, but also includes all my wads I have. This includes Doomkid's big batch of wads collection, many others.

[elborbahquarama]

4,39 gb, 624 files and 150 folders, there's 131 wads and i played all of them from start to finish haha (it's 5,15 gb, 878 files and 194 folders if you include all the iwads and sourceports)

[HavoX]

Well, let's see...

 

The WADs I have are mostly in the Doom Launcher folder, so altogether, it should be around 1.13GB.

[galileo31dos01]

Main "Wads" folder is 13 GB, I got each wad in separate folders, and a few still include png shots and whatever I didn't delete.

[Shakariki Heisenberg]

my doom mods folder is 1 gb but im kinda lazy so some wads are in just the downloads folder,
and i have alot of source ports and like other doom stuff which have their own iwads and whatnot  in their own folders so all of that combined maybe like 3-4 gigabytes

[Biodegradable]

Last time I checked, it was something like 8gb but I've cleaned it out recently as there's no sense keeping personal copies of thousands of WADs that have already been thoroughly archived.

[NiGHTS108]

I was kind of embarrassed to see 30 GB, but it seems I'm not alone so that's nice

[MFG38]

Not heavy enough.

[Clippy]

16 G I save every map I ever did a video with since feb 2011 when my computer died

 

I've felt like a hero a few times when ppl lost their maps and I was able to send it to em ah

[DoomGal]

100GB i play a lot of doom

[SupremeBioVizier]

Big enough to party.

[netcurse2000]

4,54 Gb.
