+ CLASSIC DOOM / DOOM II UPGRADE PATCHES +
File patches are available that allow you to upgrade older official editions of computer-based classic Doom/Doom II games to v1.9, the final 1990s-era version. In general, these patches correct minor bugs, and may add some functionality to the game. These patch files do not work on pirated editions of Doom or Doom II, and they will not upgrade shareware versions to full commercial status. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CAREFULLY READ ANY DOCUMENTATION SUPPLIED WITH THE PATCH FILES BEFORE USING THEM. Before applying patches of any kind, it is recommended that you make sure your original game disks, CDs or other media are available and are fully functional. (If not, make a backup copy of the current Doom/Doom II hard drive files before applying any patches. Once your game files are upgraded successfully, you can delete the obsolete backup files.)
