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  configuration  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
       ~/.local/share/chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom.cfg.  The path can be  overridden  using  the
       XDG_DATA_HOME environment variable (see the XDG Base Directory Specification).

       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

       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, "center" - place window at center  of  screen,
              "x,y" - place window at the specified coordinates.

       fullscreen
              If  non-zero, the game will run in full screen mode.  If zero, the game will run in
              a window.

       video_display
              Index of the display on which the game should run. This has no effect if running in
              windowed mode (fullscreen=0) and window_position is not set to "center".

       aspect_ratio_correct
              If  non-zero,  the  screen  will  be stretched vertically to display correctly on a
              square pixel video mode.

       integer_scaling
              If non-zero, forces integer scales for resolution-independent rendering.

       window_width
              Window width when running in windowed mode.

       window_height
              Window height when running in windowed mode.

       fullscreen_width
              Width for screen mode when running fullscreen. If this  and  fullscreen_height  are
              both  set  to  zero,  we  run fullscreen as a desktop window that covers the entire
              screen, rather than ever switching screen modes. It should usually  be  unnecessary
              to set this value.

       fullscreen_height
              Height   for   screen   mode   when   running  fullscreen.  See  documentation  for
              fullscreen_width.

       force_software_renderer
              If non-zero, force the use of a software  renderer.  For  use  on  systems  lacking
              hardware acceleration.

       max_scaling_buffer_pixels
              Maximum  number  of pixels to use for intermediate scaling buffer. More pixels mean
              that the screen can be rendered more precisely, but there are  diminishing  returns
              on  quality.  The  default limits to 16,000,000 pixels, which is enough to cover 4K
              monitor standards.

       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.

       graphical_startup
              If non-zero, display the graphical startup screen.

       show_endoom
              If non-zero, the ENDOOM text screen is displayed when exiting the  game.  If  zero,
              the ENDOOM screen is not displayed.

       show_diskicon
              If non-zero, a disk activity indicator is displayed when data is read from disk. If
              zero, the disk activity indicator is not displayed.

       png_screenshots
              If non-zero, save screenshots in PNG format. If zero, screenshots are saved in  PCX
              format, as Vanilla Doom does.

       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_pitchshift
              If non-zero, sound effects will have their pitch varied up  or  down  by  a  random
              amount during play. If zero, sound effects play back at their default pitch.

       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.

       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  converting  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 contains 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.

       autoload_path
              Full  path  to a directory in which WAD files and dehacked patches can be placed to
              be automatically loaded on startup. A subdirectory of this directory  matching  the
              IWAD name is checked to find the files to load.

       music_pack_path
              Full path to a directory containing configuration files for substitute music packs.
              These packs contain high quality renderings of game music to be played  instead  of
              using the system's built-in MIDI playback.

       timidity_cfg_path
              Full  path to a Timidity configuration file to use for MIDI playback. 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.

       gus_ram_kb
              Number of kilobytes of RAM to use in GUS emulation mode. Valid values are 256, 512,
              768 or 1024.

       vanilla_savegame_limit
              If non-zero, the Vanilla savegame limit is enforced; if the savegame exceeds 180224
              bytes  in  size,  the  game  will exit with an error.  If this has a value of zero,
              there is no limit to the size of savegames.

       vanilla_demo_limit
              If non-zero, the Vanilla demo size limit is enforced; the game exits with an  error
              when  a  demo exceeds the demo size limit (128KiB by default).  If this has a value
              of zero, there is no limit to the size of demos.

       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.

       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.

       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 emulates 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 multiplied 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).

       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.

       joystick_guid
              SDL GUID string indicating the joystick to use. An empty string indicates  that  no
              joystick is configured.

       joystick_index
              Index  of  SDL  joystick  to  use;  this  is  only  used in the case where multiple
