I could try to help with setting it up (depending on what operating system you use) - most source ports aren't too hard to download and run things with as well. Enabling god mode is just achieved by typing IDDQD in game as well.

I can contribute with some autobinds to make using these specific commands easier, so you don't need to be typing them during the game. Can even make a zip file of all the stuff that I have here. I use them all the time for testing and stuff. Only thing I can't distribute are the Doom and Doom2 IWADs, of course. I hope you're hving a good day, sir, and that you get better soon.

I'd appreciate that. I'm running Windows 11, and I'm pretty proficient working with it. I'd appreciate it if you'd knock together a set of step-by-step instructions for installing it and launching it. Once I get inside the game and type IDDQD, I'll be good to go. Thanks.

@leejacksonaudio, here it is. I zipped the most recent version of GZDoom for you together with an autoexec.cfg file that has some useful keybinds. I'll explain them below.
 

Commands

These are commands that occur everytime you press the defined key. They are toggles, so you can activate or deactivate them at will.

bind f "freeze" // Freezes the enemies. In some ports freezes doors and lifts too.
bind n "noclip" // Noclip, allows player to pass through level geometry
bind b "fly" // Fly, allows player to fly through level. Spacebar goes up, ctrl goes down.
bind g "iddqd" // Godmode. No damage taken.
bind o "noclip;freeze;fly;iddqd" // o stands for ól, which is how we'd spell the word all in my language, Brazilian portuguese. It activates all of the 4 previous commands at once.
bind l "toggle freelook; centerview" // Enables or disables freelook. Some maps I prefer to play like the original game, some maps I prefer to play in a more modern way.
sv_jump 2 // force disables jumping
sv_crouch 2 // force disables crouching

If you don't feel like using these commands, all you need to do is delete the autoexec.cfg file in the folder, or remove them from the file. Beyond this, you only need the Doom2 IWAD and our maps. You just have to place them in the same folder, then select them and drag them to the GZDoom.exe. This may be as good a time as any to announce that Johnny has allowed me to build the wad file. We are waiting for two of the maps for the first episode to release our "shareware version", which hopefully will attract some attention. Here is the map me and @The Royal We built, which uses an arrangement of your track "Future Military Conquests" for Duke Nukem 3D. It is still not fully finished, but we hope that you can have a fun enough time. It has level specific balances, so you can start with "Hey, not too Rough" or "I'm too young to die". Here are the other maps of the project in their current versions.

I had no idea Lee was onboard for composing, that's some of the wildest news I've read all year. I do hope he feels better soon. @leejacksonaudio Thank you for all the great music in Duke 3D and ROTT by the way!

You're welcome, and don't get your hopes up too high. I can compose crap just as easily as I can compose bangers, you know. ;) Luck has a lot to say about this.

It always amazes me how the greatest are always the most humble. Still, no pressure, as long as you have fun with our map, we would already be really glad.

@Johnny Cruelty the midi i'm making is sounding more like a remix of the two rather than a combination of the two. is that ok?

Here's something for the people who are active on the thread:

I wanted to take the E1M9 spot for myself- Sandy's City and Hiding the Secrets are some of my fave Doom songs. I took too long though!

 

...But it didn't stop me from doing it anyways- Just for me! I'm sure @stupid (tsocheff) is gonna do a great job with it.

Sandy's hiding the secrets. I bet he has a stash of unreleased levels he doesn't want us to see!

wait, what if we put both you and @stupid (tsocheff) 's tracks combined into one midi track, so both versions play on the same level?

[tsocheff]

sure go ahead, see how it turns out. i tired combining elements from the two midis to make this remix

yours sounds very groovy, I love it

 say you and @tamara mochaccina should just both merge the midis, they both sound good to leave one behind

[DankMetal]

We should conserve both songs, i'm planning on compiling every song from this project and post them on youtube on my secondary channel "El completos", obviously, with the permission of every artist who has collaborated here. That theme made by @tamara mochaccina can work as a B side.
