README
**EDGE-Classic** is a Doom source port that provides advanced features, ease of modding, and attractive visuals while keeping hardware requirements very modest. It is a revival of the [EDGE 1.35](http://edge.sourceforge.net/) codebase for modern systems.
[EMUS](http://firstgen.no-ip.info/emus/about.htm), the EDGE Modder's Utility Suite, has also been updated to stay current with EDGE-Classic's new features, and is an excellent all-in-one tool for both the beginning and experienced modder.
Here are some mods that showcase EDGE-Classic's flexibility and power:
## Operation: Arctic Wolf Revisited
Operation: Arctic Wolf Revisited is an update/extension of Laz Rojas' classic DOOM 2 mod with improved gameplay, all new weapons, enemies, new mechanics, more interactivity, more immersion, scripting, updated textures, level fixes, etc. making it essentially a whole new game.
Download from ModDB [here.](https://www.moddb.com/mods/edge-classic-add-ons/downloads/arctic-wolf-revisited)
## Astral Pathfinder
Astral Pathfinder by RunSaber/Chutzcraft is an EDGE exclusive partial conversion of Doom II, with an otherworldy setting and Quake-style weaponry. Three vast levels packed with exploring, secret-hunting and of course, hellish spawn from several dimensions, including three boss fights for the player to contend against.
Download from ModDB [here.](https://www.moddb.com/mods/edge-classic-add-ons/downloads/astral-pathfinder1)
## Heathen
A Hexen/Heretic-inspired gameplay mod for Doom. New enemies, weapons, items, and attacks.
Download from ModDB [here.](https://www.moddb.com/mods/edge-classic-add-ons/addons/heathen)
## Duke it out in DOOM
An action-packed gameplay mod that puts you in the boots of the political incorrect but lovable ass-kicking macho-man Duke Nukem. Crammed full of of 80's/90's action movie throwbacks and pop culture references. Featuring an impressive arsenal of super deadly, sneaky and devastating weapons and a colorful and humorous collection of power-ups and pickups. Full of witty one-liners from Duke himself and plenty of blood, guts and gore.
Download from ModDB [here.](https://www.moddb.com/mods/duke-it-out-in-doom)
## Aliens: Stranded
A Total Conversion themed on the Aliens movies. New weapons, enemies, music, textures etc. Heavy use of 3D models.
Download from ModDB [here.](https://www.moddb.com/mods/edge-classic-add-ons/downloads/aliens-stranded) The load order of the included WADs is D3tex.wad, AEM.wad, and AEM_Mapset.wad.
## DarkForces Doom
A Star Wars/Dark Forces themed gameplay mod by CeeJay for EDGE-Classic. Weapons, items, enemies and new gameplay mechanics.
Download from ModDB [here.](https://www.moddb.com/mods/edge-classic-add-ons/addons/darkforces-doom)
