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.
(There may however be a sequel or more heavy-weight {meaning, mobs, blocks, etc.} mod coming out sometime, though, depending and how I manage my time concerning other idea and real life.)
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.

I set FrequencyScale=16 in the config and nobody on my modded server has ever seen a doomlike dungeon. The server has been up for several months. is this too rare or something? What's the default? I don't want these to be too common like roguelike dungeons are by default. Setting roguelike dungeons' similar config setting to 16 worked great.
In reply to GrantGryczan:
Try 10 or 11, maybe 12 if you want them really rare. Each +2 doubles the average distance between dungeons; or each +1 halves the dungeons per area if yo want to think about it that way. But 16 is way too high, 1/256th as many.
In reply to JaredBGreat:
What's the default? 8?
In reply to GrantGryczan:
If I remember right its 8 ... could be 7, but I think 8. (I usually set mine to 6 since I like exploring dungeons).
In reply to JaredBGreat:
My Frequency scale is set to 8 and i can't find a single entrance on survival, any help?

Hello, I can find enchanted book in some loot chests, but I can't find minecraft:enchanted_book in "chests.cfg", why?
In reply to 撸意思:
Enchanted books are handled by Java code, since I need an easy way to hook into the games enchanting system. So enchanted books aren't in the config.
Hi, I can just spawn a dungeon by command, but the dungeons never spawn with world generate, I have checked "DLDungeonsJBG.cfg" that "B:SpawnWithWordgen=true" "I:Dimensions < 0 -1 >" "B:OnlySpawnInListedDims=true", I think it should be spawn with world generate, but not. I also try to reinitialized the config file, but it not work. I don't want to use command for every dungeon. My game version is 1.12.2, Mod version 1.12.10, forge version is 14.23.5.2838.What should I do?
In reply to 撸意思:
You could try setting EasyFind=true to be sure you aren't missing them. Also, you can turn the Frequency Scale down to 6 to make them more common.
In reply to JaredBGreat:
Thank you, I think I find it!
Cool ;D
this mod compatible with roguelike dungeons?
In reply to Significmc:
They do not effect each other in any way ... I've often used both (and other dungeons mods) in the same world.
Any chance of adding support for other dimensions such as the Nether, Twilight Forest or Beneath? Awesome mod btw :)
In reply to FluxUnderscore:
It has had support since alpha versions back in spring 2014.
In reply to JaredBGreat:
well whenever i try to spawn one in they only spawn at the very bottom of the world with no spawners and with the rooms completely filled with stone...
In reply to FluxUnderscore:
That's strange ... in what dimension? I have no trouble in the nether. I suppose a modded chunk generator could block it, though what you're describing is very strange.
(BTW, the config can determine the allowed dimensions, and themes for the biome type are always required.)
In reply to JaredBGreat:
It's in the Beneath dimension - I checked and its definitely allowed in the configs. The weirdest thing is sometimes it spawns normally with /dldspawn but I'm not quite sure how...
In reply to FluxUnderscore:
Well, if the whole dimension is full of caves and stone that would be one reason for dungeons to be near the bottom; the altitude doesn't change based on the dimension, so they will appear at y levels that would be underground in the overworld. I'm not that familiar with that mod, so I don't know if it has biomes (that could make a difference). I'll get back if I figure anything out.
