I have a pretty extensive collection of Doom MD5 hash sums which can be used to extend this. 84.92.173.189 00:14, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)


 * Good stuff, I'll work on that tonight :) I wrote this page to complement another one describing the IWAD identification algorithm. In totality, I hope there'll be enough info for people to identify a given IWAD. -- Jdowland 09:32, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)

When this table approaches a reasonable level of completeness (which is a judgement for those more knowledgeable than myself), I would gently suggest that its format should be somewhat different. It barely fits on my monitor, and for those with dodgy eyesight or who have their screens set to low resolutions for some other reason (e.g. they're running Windows 95 on a 386), it may be prove to be nearly unreadable.

 * I suggest ditching the CD-ROM hash sums or moving them to a separate table/article. Fraggle 12:12, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

To see which version the current iwad is you are using, use this program: Iwadverifier --217.255.255.249 21:54, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

I added almost every MD5 for all releases ever (i think). I got the information partly from my own copies, combined with the Lazy DOOMers Patching Tool, and from the downloadable shareware copies from the same site. --Zom-B 00:43, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
