Batman Doom

Batman Doom is a total conversion for Doom II. It was created by ACE Team Software and released in April 1999 after three years of development. In Batman Doom, the player plays as Batman fighting various criminals in Gotham City. The mod includes a very complex Dehacked patch which makes it vastly different from Doom II.

The TC is designed to be compatible with Vanilla Doom and is available for both the PC and the Macintosh. However, a bug in DOS dehacked means that it does not run properly in Vanilla Doom (after switching to the fist it is impossible to switch away). A patch was created by Simon Howard to allow Batman Doom to run properly in Vanilla Doom; the patch was released on October 30th, 2006.

The recommended source port to play Batman Doom with is Boom. While Batman Doom is playable with ZDoom, some glitches occur when using it, most notably being unable to properly complete MAP25 and MAP29 after defeating The Joker (the player must no clip to get to the exit or use a level warp cheat to advance due to this bug). A patch is in the works for the ZDoom source port that aims to fix the bugs that occur when Batman Doom is played on ZDoom-based source ports, while giving players the option to add new features not present in the original total conversion.

Bane
Bane is the final boss of Batman Doom, appearing in MAP30. The player must defeat Bane using the 7th weapon, which can be picked up at the start of the level (the words "fight only with these gloves!" appear). If the player switches to a different weapon, the words "you failed to fight bane with your fists" appear over the screen, leaving the player with no weapons and defenseless against Bane.

Bane has 250 hitpoints (the same as the Doom II final boss). When killed, the level ends.
