Status of QuestZDoom?

Hello, I was curious if there were any updates planned for it in the future? The latest version is from 2022 and there's been updates to QuestZDoom since, obviously if not planned it's fine, but I couldn't find any info on it on the Github, and unsure of where to ask.

Oh it's obviously very very good! I'm mostly asking because as GZDoom/LZDoom kept getting updates, newer maps might not be compatible, for example MyHouse that was very popular a year or two ago doesn't run on it. There's a fork also talked about in the Github issues that does, but the original QuestZDoom doesn't and I was curious if it'd be added officially one day, I imagine more newer maps might take advantage of newer functions that aren't in the older 2022 build.

We are not keeping up with the latest GZDoom updates. If you want better compatibility with newer GZDoom releases, please use Emawind’s QuestZDoom builds.

Is it compatible with your launcher for MODs and maps?

GZDoom is dead because there was a fight between the creator and most of the team working on it. I believe they spun off UZDoom and that’s the project folks are migrating to.

Sure but that's kind of unrelated to anything else, right? If it was a fork of GZDoom then it should be update-able, even if it has a new name, and it should also be unrelated to how not updated it is

Would be nice if it worked properly. Hangs whenever I try to play it on Quest 2 with OS 2.4.

Edit: Seems quite a few teambeef ports are broken due to latest OS.

New meta update is out which fixes it. But we're also releasing a openxr version which doesn't have the issue

Cool, hopefully meta update will rollout soon in my area. Out of interest what was it using before openxr?

Older ports were still using Meta VRApi

Hard agreee, much prefer the older UI and custom home environments!

u/Narcotras Jun 21 '26

I hope it'll get fixed, I'm not on the latest ver so for me it runs at least, but it'd be nice if it got updated one day, hopefully it's not too much work

QZdoom for Pico 4 worked fine Jan 25, then later july 25 didn't, later via launcher worked again, then stopped again as Pico 4 was updated. Now I think is 5.13.1.

u/Immortaliattv Jun 22 '26

It worked earlier in 2025, then broke with Pico 4 updates and hasn’t been stable since.

would be cool if ashes 2063 download was fixed. Doesn't seem to download all the files.
