Alun “Viggles” Bestor’s BREACH.WAD is included with DOOM Retro.
  • Optimizations have been made to further improve the overall performance and stability of DOOM Retro.
  • Changes have been made to the format of savegames that breaks compatibility with previous versions of DOOM Retro.

  • Hanging decorations will no longer drop to the ground when over a liquid sector that moves.

  • The effects of changing the r_translucency CVAR are now instantaneous.
  • A stray black pixel has been removed from under “N” characters in the menu.
  • The WINDOWS key can no longer be pressed when fullscreen, as intended.
