Uncensoring
While it could be easier to just provide the modified iWAD, that would be considered pirating, so thats a big no (at least on official channels), all thanks goes to Zeikar for actually figuring all this out, i am just the guide writer.

Update: for a more direct approach that requires no file editing, use Diemas' wad: http://momodrive.darkhaven3.com/files/uncensored.wad

- Drop it in your doom64 install folder "...\steamapps\common\Doom 64"
- right click on Doom64 here on Steam, go to properties -> set launch options
- type "-file uncensored.wad"
- done :)

Be aware this method seemly disables achievements, the following method below does not disable achievements

How to make Doom64 a bit more like it was originally intended before the Red Cross threw a hissy fit in few easy steps:

STEP 1: Downloading

- Download this file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WMey12j9pob3Dvwp07UJ1XDOSrpCNnaA/view?usp=sharing
(This is the extracted image files of the original HealthPacks/BerserkerPacks, taken from Doom64EX wad).

-Extract file contents where you deem fit, just remember where you placed it.

- Download Slade 3, a doom wad editing tool: https://slade.mancubus.net/index.php?page=downloads

Install/Extract (depends on version you picked, either works)

STEP 2: IMG Importing

- Open SLADE
- Go to: edit>preferences>advanced, find iwad_lock and uncheck its box
- Open DOOM64.WAD, this should be in : ...\steamapps\common\Doom 64, where the "..." is your steam folder where you downloaded the game.
- Find and overwrite (import) MEDIA0, PSTRA0 and STIMA0 with the downloaded files, make sure your overwriting the already existing files, do not simply drag and drop/copy paste the files into the wad. In other words, find each of the 3 files, right click on them and click import.
- Save your WAD
- Exit Slade

STEP 3:

-Profit!

The Red Cross gets too butthurt about things like this in video games.

The updated link to the WAD no longer works, use this one instead:

Now why in the hell would the red cross get pissed at some berserk pack and health sprites?
That's just fucking stupid.

Hey so I did all of this but I get a Kex Assertion Error. Can someone help with that?

glad to come back and see theres an easy install wad for it. With the new Quake rerelease do you think there will be a guide for its medkits? They're red crosses for now but there's censored textures found in the files which leads one to believe they could change it anytime soon

I'm glad this is about as easy for people to do as removing the 15 company logos at the beginning. Overall I'd just tell people to play EX or the N64 cart if they wanted to play Doom64, just so I don't have to explain to them that the medkit sprites etc. were fucked with and that they should fix them (I know full well they wouldn't bother and that bugs me lmao)

@AmethystViper sure thing, feature it away :D

Sorry for the second bump, but is it alright if I can feature this guide on a Steam guide I'm working on for Doom 64 to fix issues and tweak things with the PC version?

I am curious about fixing the chaingun too unless the porting team fixes this issue themselves.

@Lord_Kane please tell us how.
