Starting ZDoom directly results into an error asking for the Doom II WAD file. Foreverhood, however, can run standalone. The executable carries version number 2.0.96x and is dated August 7, 2005.
- Foreverhood, as of version 1.1, still relies on Foreverhood.bat, but is now used to start a supplied GZDoom executable. Starting GZDoom directly results in an error. The executable used is version 1.0.21, corresponding with ZDoom version 2.1.6 (r340) dated Oct 5, 2006. Because it relies on a batch file and the included GZDoom.exe, Foreverhood has troubles been run on more recent versions of ZDoom and GZDoom.
