chocolate-doom.cfg(5)chocolate-doom.cfg(5)NAME
chocolate-doom.cfg - Chocolate Doom configuration file
DESCRIPTION
chocolate-doom.cfg is a configuration file for chocolate-doom(6). This
file acts as an auxiliary configuration file; the main configuration
options are stored in default.cfg, which contains the same configura‐
tion options as Vanilla Doom (for compatibility). chocolate-doom.cfg
contains configuration options that are specific to Chocolate Doom
only.
chocolate-doom.cfg is normally stored in the user's home directory, as
~/.chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom.cfg.
The chocolate-setup(6) tool provides a simple to use front-end for
editing chocolate-doom.cfg.
FILE FORMAT
The file format is the same as that used for default.cfg(5).
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
graphical_startup
If non-zero, display the graphical startup screen.
autoadjust_video_settings
If non-zero, video settings will be autoadjusted to a valid con‐
figuration when the screen_width and screen_height variables do
not match any valid configuration.
fullscreen
If non-zero, the game will run in full screen mode. If zero,
the game will run in a window.
aspect_ratio_correct
If non-zero, the screen will be stretched vertically to display
correctly on a square pixel video mode.
startup_delay
Number of milliseconds to wait on startup after the video mode
has been set, before the game will start. This allows the
screen to settle on some monitors that do not display an image
for a brief interval after changing video modes.
screen_width
Screen width in pixels. If running in full screen mode, this is
the X dimension of the video mode to use. If running in win‐
dowed mode, this is the width of the window in which the game
will run.
screen_height
Screen height in pixels. If running in full screen mode, this
is the Y dimension of the video mode to use. If running in win‐
dowed mode, this is the height of the window in which the game
will run.
screen_bpp
Color depth of the screen, in bits. If this is set to zero, the
color depth will be automatically set on startup to the
machine's default/native color depth.
grabmouse
If this is non-zero, the mouse will be "grabbed" when running in
windowed mode so that it can be used as an input device. When
running full screen, this has no effect.
novert If non-zero, all vertical mouse movement is ignored. This emu‐
lates the behavior of the "novert" tool available under DOS that
performs the same function.
mouse_acceleration
Mouse acceleration factor. When the speed of mouse movement
exceeds the threshold value (mouse_threshold), the speed is mul‐
tiplied by this value.
mouse_threshold
Mouse acceleration threshold. When the speed of mouse movement
exceeds this threshold value, the speed is multiplied by an
acceleration factor (mouse_acceleration).
snd_samplerate
Sound output sample rate, in Hz. Typical values to use are
11025, 22050, 44100 and 48000.
snd_cachesize
Maximum number of bytes to allocate for caching converted sound
effects in memory. If set to zero, there is no limit applied.
snd_maxslicetime_ms
Maximum size of the output sound buffer size in milliseconds.
Sound output is generated periodically in slices. Higher values
might be more efficient but will introduce latency to the sound
output. The default is 28ms (one slice per tic with the 35fps
timer).
snd_musiccmd
External command to invoke to perform MIDI playback. If set to
the empty string, SDL_mixer's internal MIDI playback is used.
This only has any effect when snd_musicdevice is set to General
MIDI output.
snd_dmxoption
Value to set for the DMXOPTION environment variable. If this
contains "-opl3", output for an OPL3 chip is generated when in
OPL MIDI playback mode.
opl_io_port
The I/O port to use to access the OPL chip. Only relevant when
using native OPL music playback.
png_screenshots
If non-zero, save screenshots in PNG format.
vanilla_keyboard_mapping
If non-zero, the game behaves like Vanilla Doom, always assuming
an American keyboard mapping. If this has a value of zero, the
native keyboard mapping of the keyboard is used.
video_driver
Name of the SDL video driver to use. If this is an empty
string, the default video driver is used.
window_position
Position of the window on the screen when running in windowed
mode. Accepted values are: "" (empty string) - don't care, "cen‐
ter" - place window at center of screen, "x,y" - place window at
the specified coordinates.
player_name
Name to use in network games for identification. This is only
used on the "waiting" screen while waiting for the game to
start.
joystick_index
Joystick number to use; '0' is the first joystick. A negative
value ('-1') indicates that no joystick is configured.
joystick_x_axis
Joystick axis to use to for horizontal (X) movement.
joystick_x_invert
If non-zero, movement on the horizontal joystick axis is
inverted.
joystick_y_axis
Joystick axis to use to for vertical (Y) movement.
joystick_y_invert
If non-zero, movement on the vertical joystick axis is inverted.
joystick_strafe_axis
Joystick axis to use to for strafing movement.
joystick_strafe_invert
If non-zero, movement on the joystick axis used for strafing is
inverted.
joystick_physical_button0

tual button #0.
joystick_physical_button1
The physical joystick button that corresponds to joystick vir‐
tual button #1.
joystick_physical_button2
The physical joystick button that corresponds to joystick vir‐
tual button #2.
joystick_physical_button3
The physical joystick button that corresponds to joystick vir‐
tual button #3.
joystick_physical_button4
The physical joystick button that corresponds to joystick vir‐
tual button #4.
joystick_physical_button5
The physical joystick button that corresponds to joystick vir‐
tual button #5.
joystick_physical_button6
The physical joystick button that corresponds to joystick vir‐
tual button #6.
joystick_physical_button7
The physical joystick button that corresponds to joystick vir‐
tual button #7.
joystick_physical_button8
The physical joystick button that corresponds to joystick vir‐
tual button #8.
joystick_physical_button9

tual button #9.
joyb_strafeleft
Joystick virtual button to make the player strafe left.
joyb_straferight
Joystick virtual button to make the player strafe right.
joyb_menu_activate
Joystick virtual button to activate the menu.
joyb_prevweapon
Joystick virtual button that cycles to the previous weapon.
joyb_nextweapon
Joystick virtual button that cycles to the next weapon.
mouseb_strafeleft
Mouse button to strafe left.
mouseb_straferight
Mouse button to strafe right.
mouseb_use
Mouse button to "use" an object, eg. a door or switch.
mouseb_backward
Mouse button to move backwards.
mouseb_prevweapon
Mouse button to cycle to the previous weapon.
mouseb_nextweapon
Mouse button to cycle to the next weapon.
dclick_use
If non-zero, double-clicking a mouse button acts like pressing
the "use" key to use an object in-game, eg. a door or switch.
use_libsamplerate
Controls whether libsamplerate support is used for performing
sample rate conversions of sound effects. Support for this must
be compiled into the program. If zero, libsamplerate support is
disabled. If non-zero, libsamplerate is enabled. Increasing
values roughly correspond to higher quality conversion; the
higher the quality, the slower the conversion process. Linear
conversion = 1; Zero order hold = 2; Fast Sinc filter = 3;
Medium quality Sinc filter = 4; High quality Sinc filter = 5.
libsamplerate_scale
Scaling factor used by libsamplerate. This is used when convert‐
ing sounds internally back into integer form; normally it should
not be necessary to change it from the default value. The only
time it might be needed is if a PWAD file is loaded that con‐
tains very loud sounds, in which case the conversion may cause
sound clipping and the scale factor should be reduced. The lower
the value, the quieter the sound effects become, so it should be
set as high as is possible without clipping occurring.
timidity_cfg_path
Full path to a Timidity configuration file to use for MIDI play‐
back. The file will be evaluated from the directory where it is
evaluated, so there is no need to add "dir" commands into it.
gus_patch_path
Path to GUS patch files to use when operating in GUS emulation
mode.
