• The -file parameter may now be used without an -iwad parameter on the command-line.
• A bug has been fixed whereby using either the nomonsters CCMD in the console, or -nomonsters on the command-line, would not stop monsters from being spawned in maps.
• The speed the player turns is now affected by the turbo CVAR and -turbo command-line parameter.
• The correct sky textures will now be displayed when playing Back To Saturn X E1: Get Out Of My Stations or Back To Saturn X E2: Tower in the Fountain of Sparks and the mouselook CVAR is off.

DOOM Retro v3.0.4 is now available, in 32-bit and 64-bit varieties. Its release notes are as follows:

• Optimizations have been made to further improve the overall performance and stability of DOOM Retro.
• Minor changes have been made to the character set used in the console.
• Minor changes have been made to text that is output to the console.
• DOOM Retro will now automatically load SIGIL_v1_21.wad (or SIGIL_v1_2.wad) in preference to SIGIL.wad.
• Timestamps in the console are now displayed in 12 rather than 24-hour format, and without a leading zero.
• If the player saves a game, now that game will from then on be automatically saved at the start of each map. This feature can be disabled by the new autosave CVAR, which is on by default and off when vanilla mode is on.
• The following changes have been made to the name CCMD:
  • Spaces are now allowed in the name, whether surrounded by double quotes or not.
  • Whether the monster being named already has been named will now be indicated.
  • The player can now also be named (which is effectively the same as changing the playername CVAR).
• A bug has been fixed whereby enabling the am_path CVAR would cause DOOM Retro to crash.
• The path of the player that appears in the automap when the am_path CVAR is on is now thicker.
• Minor improvements have been made to the support of DEHACKED lumps.

DOOM Retro v3.0.3 is now available, in 32-bit and 64-bit varieties. Its release notes are as follows:

• The behavior of the -nodeh command-line parameter has changed. It will still disable the automatic loading of .deh files, .bex files and DEHACKED lumps, but will now load .deh and .bex files if selected in the WAD launcher or specified using the -deh command-line parameter.
• A bug has been fixed whereby dogs spawned in front of the player using the spawn CCMD in the console would always be friendly, even when the friendly parameter wasn’t used. This bug also affected PWADs that would replace the dog using a DEHACKED patch. All monsters of that type spawned at the start of a map would be friendly and therefore attack and be attacked by other monsters. (An example of this are the nightmare demons in Eviternity.)
• The following compatibility fixes have been implemented for Noiser’s DOOM 4 VANILLA:
  • D4V.WAD will now always be the last PWAD to be loaded if selected together with another PWAD in the WAD launcher.

• Only monsters who are alive can be named using the name CCMD.
• Jumping will now always work as intended.
• A bug has been fixed whereby looking up and down with a gamepad when the gp_invertyaxis CVAR was off would still be inverted, and when on would not be and also cause the player’s view to jitter.
• The double shotgun sound can now be heard again in DOOM II’s cast sequence.
• The crosshair displayed using the crosshair CVAR no longer needs the mouselook CVAR to be on.
• The correct music will now be played on the intermission screen of episodes 1 to 4 when John Romero’s megawad SIGIL has been autoloaded.
