AI assistance is allowed in submission of WAD/PK3 work to our service. However, uploaders remain responsible for everything they submit.
Our moderation team is small, and investigating uploads by the masses is not plausible. We have nearly 70 new registrations a month and hundreds of new wad files uploaded monthly.
AI generated content has become increasingly more difficult to spot as time goes on, so we have to adjust our ruleset to be fair to our small staff team and to our community of talented programmers.
We encourage handcrafted mods because the creativity, effort, and personal touches of their creators are what make our doom community so special. If you use AI, take the time to understand, review, and refine what it produces.
With that in mind, these are our new rules about AI-generated game content:
-
Unauthorized use of someone else’s work.
AI-assisted edits, rewrites, or additions do not give you permission to redistribute another person’s mod, code, maps, artwork, or other assets. Follow the original work’s license and any applicable permissions. If those do not allow your intended use, obtain the creator’s permission before uploading. Giving credit alone does not replace permission. -
Unreviewed or spam uploads.
Review and test your submission before sharing it. Uploads containing substantial broken functionality, unusable generated content, or repeated near-identical releases may be removed, whether AI was involved or not. -
Other rule violations.
AI-generated content must follow the same rules as any other content, please review our full terms and policies before submitting. -
Being clear about AI usage.
If AI generated a substantial part of the content or code you are distributing, briefly disclose that in the credits of your mod.
