This is just a simple Doom launcher:

• manage and run locally installed Doom ports
• select IWADs and PWADs to launch with
• pass custom arguments(both program and port specific)
• create multiple configs for different tasks
• linux only: run flatpak ports

Build

• Install nim
• Clone this repo into desired directory

Linux:

• Run buildLIN.sh, nimble should download all expected dependencies automatically

Windows:

• WIP

Known issues and fixes

Linux:

Flatpak port doesn't respect keyboard inputs:

• Force the port to use X11 instead of Wayland:
  • In extra commands field add --socket=x11 --nosocket=wayland commands. Example:

    --socket=x11 --nosocket=wayland;

  • or via Flatseal

KDE Plasma, freeze on open file dialog:

• Should be FIXED since v1.2
• Install kdialog

Flatpak port doesn't see selected IWAD/PWADs:

• FIXED since v1.01
• Give the port permission to access specific folders:
  • In extra commands field add --filesystem= command with path. Example:

    --filesystem=/var/mnt/HDD/Doom/iWADs/ --filesystem=/var/mnt/HDD/Doom/WADs/;

  • or via Flatseal

Why?

I'm a newbie dev, so this project is a way for me to learn nim gui building(via ImGui) and nim overall as a programming language
