This mod will add dungeons meant to resemble levels from retro "2 1/2d" first-person shooters, and was inspired by earlier dungeons mods and by Oblige (especially version 3.57), a random level generator for Doom. The goal is to create interesting, tactically challenging, and highly varied multi-room dungeons that are fun to explore and rewarding to conquer.

I fear this is the final version, this mod dies in 1.12.2; all attempts to update have failed, resulting only in crashing the game.
Note that in Minecraft 1.12.2 you may get some "Cascading Worldgen" warnings. This is the results of intended behavior; its a design flaw but not actually a bug. There is no cascading chain reaction.
This really is almost certainly the final version of this mod. There really isn't much in the way of new features I want to add to this now, but do hope to keep updating to new game versions -- even if I update to the next game version it will be with no new features (same mod version).
Mods the Support Doomlike Dungeons
These mods are known to add mobs to Doomlike Dungeons automatically:
Try them out if you want even more challenging dungeons! Especially with higher difficulty settings, the dungeons are limited by the difficulty range of vanilla mobs. Adding these mods will allow harder dungeons to reach their full potential.
Mod Packs
Yes, you can use this in modpacks -- this mod was made with modpacks in mind and to be modpack friendly by allowing use of content from other mods.

Does this mod work with Biomes O 'Plenty?
In reply to piotrek4_development:
It should and last time I checked it did. There really isn't any reason it wouldn't.
Hello, I want to install this mod on my server, I would like to know what are the two additional files that are shown: the dopb and the source, I don't know what they are for, they are added to the client or the server, or bothIn reply to juangamer12357:
You don't need those files -- those are only for making other mods, if you want the mods to do something with the dungeons (usually, add their mobs to dungeons). Just get the main file and leave the others.
Can u update it to 1.16.4/1.16.5?
I love this mod.
In reply to KiminaW:
I'd love to have an updated version, it's just that so far every attempt (by myself or others) has failed and crashed the game. :-(

Lmao, wrong site

What the hell are you talking about?!

Wrong comment, no biggie
Hi, what's the difference between eliteMobs and bossMobs? Does the latter mean that only a select few non-despawning boss mobs would get generated for a dungeon (instead of spawner blocks for them)? And what difficulty is required for elite mob spawners to be generated?
In reply to HariboTer:
They work the same way, but bossMobs are rarer and will only appear if the mod is set to nightmare difficulty; elite is more like mini-boss and generally very hard mobs, whereas boss is for full bosses like the Wither and Ender Dragon or a modded equivalent..
EDIT: All spawners placed by the mod are vanilla spawners with vanilla behavior, it just places the listed mobs (or any spawnable entity in theory) in them.
In reply to JaredBGreat:
I see, thanks :-)
Have you considered replacing boss spawners with single, non-despawning entities (created during/directly after wolrd generation) with a boss bar and potentially further user-configured buffs (e.g. similar to how Infernal Mobs does it)?
Love the dungeons, should do just one more update that adds a boss room to the dungeons. Would be fun to have to find a key or key card like doom to get into the boss room. That way cant mine into the boss room and have to complete the dungeon to get the key to fight the boss. Just a suggestion. Minecraft never has enough different bosses. Great mod either way
In reply to btcrider:
Throughout the active development of this mod I avoided adding blocks, mobs, or items -- any that would require the mod on the client -- so it could be used like a server plugin if someone want. This would be harder than you think to do now. I'd have to change the generation to include adding the boss room, I'd need to create boss-level mobs to make sure good bosses were available, create a special block if I didn't just use bedrock, create a key and key block, generate a key loot in good places ... it would basically be creating a whole new (larger) mod from scratch. The room layout might be reusable is all.
If I were to do anything more with this it would probably be an add-on that would create a special dungeon dimension. This would actually be much easier to do, and would some a problem that literally every mod that generates dungeons in existing dimensions has -- the fact that dungeons are a finite resource and you have to go farther and farther to find new ones. Worse, on a server, this means newer players could find all dungeons near their home already looted. So if anything that is what I'd prefer to add, a way to build a portal to endless dungeons that just refresh whenever the portal is opened or reset. You might even have to find a final room to with the exit portal to escape! I doubt I will though -- I've been more and more tired of Minecraft, even of video games and looking at screens to a lesser extent -- so I have little motivation to mod more. But if I made a major addition to the mod it would be something like that.
Hi, sorry for the question but I've not been able to find documentation about this anywhere:
How do you use Block Families in custom themes? Like what is the formatting to be able to use them for walls, etc?
Thank you and great mod, really awesome for creating custom challenges in modpacks.
In reply to gimmevidya:
$family_name
Example:
floors = $mixed_bricks_3, $mixed_cobble, minecraft:mossy_cobblestone, minecraft:dirt, minecraft:stone
Is it possible to add vanilla loot tables into the chests? Rather than specific items?
In reply to GalloViking:
That's not been possible for many years, since ...? 1.7? 1.8? You could do that early on, but I don't really know how vanilla loot works anymore, so I dropped that feature.
In reply to JaredBGreat:
Thaks for the answer. I've found a workaround using the mod Loot Bags. I added these bags as possible rewards in the chest of the loot category, working like a charm so far.
How do you add modded loot into the dungeons? I'm not really good with configs so is there a guide or something?
