  • How to Install Mods (general guide): https://wiki.eternalmods.com/books/1-how-to-install-mods/page/how-to-install-mods-doom-eternal
  • Get the latest version of the Eternal Mod Injector.
    Windows (Steam): https://gamebanana.com/tools/download/7475
    Linux (Steam): https://github.com/leveste/EternalBasher/releases
  • All players should have the same multiplayer-related mods installed (does not include most addons). If a player has different or extra mods installed, their game may de-sync in unexpected ways or crash. Texture, Model, String, & Audio mods should be unaffected.
  • A player (the host) should create a private lobby and invite a friend or two (the clients). The host invite players by selecting the Social Menu ( P ) and finding their friend or favorite profiles.
    Some multiplayer mods only require 2 players.

  • Once all players are ready, the host should execute one of the loadDevMenuOption commands in the console provided by the mod author. Alternatively, players may ready-up with mods that require 3 players such INVASION and TENEMODE. Some of these mods require the host to execute net_gameserver_enable 0 before starting a game.
    Press the Grave Accent ( ` ) key to open the console. Copy the loadDevMenuOption command and use CTRL + V to paste it into the console, then press ENTER. All players will now be loaded into the map.

  • Here is an example of a command to load into a multiplayer map: loadDevMenuOption devmenuoption/pvp 0 1
    This command will load the Forsaken map from BATTLEMODE.
