That One Thing
It provides an entirely free world of monsters, weapons and levels that can power decades of Doom community creativity.
Pirate Doom! is Arch's GZDoom total conversion that rebuilds Doom II as a Caribbean raid. Every stock monster gets a pirate pass — peg-leg Cyberdemon, hat-flipping imps, braided pain elementals — and the arsenal swaps to a cutlass, flintlock, cannons, and a dynamite thrower in place of the BFG. There is no chainsaw. Freelook is the intended way to play.
The campaign is 18 action maps plus a credits/epilogue map, moving through ships, islands, caves, temples, and a circus, with Caribbean music and full cooperative and deathmatch support. The conversion can also ride other mapsets because the monster and weapon replacements are not locked to the bundled levels.
Version 1.8 is the last upstream package. Sounds mute on many GZDoom 1.9+ builds; the community 1.8b fix on ModDB is the one to grab for current GZDoom. PlayBound's Freedoom + GZDoom edition is a valid IWAD host. This is a ModDB download, not a one-click PlayBound zip.
Checking…
Vouched for by established community members, not yet PlayBound tested.
PirateDoom v1.8b fixed. The 2014 v1.8 package breaks sound on modern GZDoom. The standalone 'plays with other megawads' pack is optional if you want to drop the weapons and monsters onto a different mapset.

Leading multiplayer Doom engine supporting up to 64 players with client/server netcode, co-op, survival, and deathmatch.
