[FAP] Hoe's Doom Community HOST A SERVER!
Lots of Ways to Donate!
Yeah, we do have multiple ways of asking for donations - it provides flexibility to how you feel best serves the purpose.
I asked Trump about a small loan of a million dollars but it didn't work out.
We are not in it for profit - we are in it for the love of the game. Every dollar helps! This donation goes toward the FAP Expense Account.

You can also now host your own servers. See below!
Our New Server Hosting Platform! Launched 7/5/25
Server Hosting Steps
- Navigate to the left side and click Register. Create a login and password for yourself.
- To activate your account, check your email and click the link.
- Return to the main page. Hit Host Server!
- The IWAD will default to Doom 2. Make sure on your copy of Doomseeker under Configuration, the file path is pointed to where DOOM2.WAD is saved (for example, Steam/steamapps/common/Doom 2. Same rule paths will need to be applied for other base games such as Ultimate Doom, Heretic, Hexen, etc in your library).
- Add your parameters for your server and when ready, hit Host on bottom right!
- You can save configs for easy loading in the future, and you can have up to 8 servers to host. In addition, you can load up to 69 mods. Nice!
- If you are completely new to server hosting and you have questions, please reach out to us at support@fapnow.xyz or join our Discord: https://discord.gg/fapnowxyz. We are happy to help!
RULES: No spamming, no slurs, no bullying. Use common sense.
Configure Doomseeker - Trouble Shooting
Doomseeker
Open Doomseeker, navigate to Configuration.
Make sure the path to Zandronum is pointed at the right folder.
If there is a Triangle with an exclamation point (!) in the middle, that means you'll have to manually find Zandronum on your system. Locate Zandronum on your system and then set the path on the right.
NOTE: If there is an error message that you are using the wrong Zandronum version, then you may have more than one copy of Zandronum on your system or your version is outdated. Be sure to get the latest Zandronum version from their official website , save it down, and ensure Doomseeker is pointed to the file path of the latest Zandronum version.
File Paths
This will tell Doomseeker where to locate your core games, aka IWADs.
Make sure Ultimate Doom, Doom 2, Heretic, Hexen file paths are caputured here.
I.e., If you have a copy of Doom 2 that you got off Steam, your file pile is likely similar to C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Doom 2.
Instructions for Wadseeker
So now that you have Doomseeker, let's make sure your wad seeker grabs wads from FAP!
Open Doomseeker, navigate to Configuration.
Under Wadseeker, go to sites.
In the blank space at the bottom, add https://static.action.fapnow.xyz/wads/.
Hit +Add.
Then OK.

Instructions on Progress Saving
Progress Saving
Some of our Servers are equipped with a database to save your character's progress. See instructions below on how to save your progress!
Create an Account
You will need to create an account at the following website to access the Database:
OK Hoe, done. Now what?
Log into RGA Cooperative. Do not join game at this point. Just spectate.
Key Binds
Once in the game, go to Options, Customize Controls. You will need to bind Load Character at the very least.
Logging In
Go to the console (~) and type "login" *space*username*space*password. Look for a message in the console your profile was loaded successfully.
Am I done?
Almost! You need to at least beat the current level before your character progress is saved. Then, the next time you log in, put in your login information, and then once you're logged in, select your class from the RGA menu and your levels should return.
**NOTE: if the server has a restart at any point in time, progress will be lost. Please note however, FAP cranks up the XP so if your progress is lost, it shouldn't take you long to get back to where you were before.

[FAP] Senior Bios
Powerful Hoe
Position: Lord and Dictator, Leader
From: Dallas, TX, USA
About: My late father introduced me to Doom in the 90s and I was blown away by the game. I continue to play the game to honor his memory. I started FAP as a means to have an excuse to VC with other players while playing Doom and it became its own brand. After an interesting collection of players joined, I decided FAP should reach out to the community and hopefully grow from doing so. The vision: give creators a chance to showcase their work and promote them while also having a relaxed community to play the game and have fun! I am extremely fortunate and blessed on how far FAP has come and how much faith the Doom community puts into us. Thank you all for your continued support!
Hobbies: I have been riding motorcycles/Vespas for over 9 years, I enjoy daytrips, designer purses (buying and reselling), and I play games in addition to Doom. BTW, I'm still waiting for Half-Life 3.
I also attend Quakecon since it is held in the Dallas area yearly. Look for our banner if you attend!
Lovecraft's Cat, Garfield
Position: High Level Administrator (Second-in-Command), Super Executive Vice President II Turbo HD Remix
From: Muncie, Indiana, USA
About: I joined the Discord when it was just Hoe's personal server, and FAP was born shortly thereafter. She told me, "I'm starting a Doom clan. It's called FAP, and you're the Vice President because you're funny," so that's how I got the gig. I try to make FAP a place where everyone is in on the joke, nobody takes anything too seriously, and everything is in good humor.,
Hobbies: Apart from Doom, I also enjoy tabletop RPGs, computer RPGs, immersive sims, Halo, Star Trek, Star Wars, reading (mostly fantasy and non-fiction), and lasagna
Hendricks266
Position: Resident Advisor & Technical Reservist; FAP Ops 6
From: Chicago, IL USA
About: I was invited to FAP by my friend of many years, meleemario. I am the Technical Director of Ion Fury and the EDuke32 family of source ports for BUILD Engine games, and a longtime admin of Duke4.net. Naturally, I enjoy multiplayer sessions of these games, including DukeMatch, BloodBath, and of course, WangBang. I've joined the Friendly Action Platform to lend my experience in these roles to the new largest Doom server cluster around.
Hobbies: By day, I am a computer engineer. Beyond gaming and tech, I engage with many art forms, particularly music. I DJ as a creative outlet. Ask me about the holy trinity: House, Techno, and Drum & Bass. Catch me at a rave, my local Goth Night, or just partying with friends.
MiFU-Retired/Former Staff
Position: Director of FAPgineering (Main Systems Admin)
From: Aussie Land
About: I joined the FAP discord ages ago, merely as a lurker and observer and had the honor of watching the group grow before becoming a member more recent times. I then offered to provide a new dedicated server to host FAP's game servers (as I needed a new server at the time) which got me the role as the main systems administrator here at FAP. My goal here is to turn FAP into a community that excels at providing a good public server hosting service for old school games such as Doom/Quake etc.
Hobbies: I like coding, gaming, cooking and the occasional bar visit for a stiff drink
Myself Again/Avi-Retired/Former Staff
Position: Back End Server Support; FAP Ops 6-Technical Reservist
From: Grand Rapids, MI USA
About: In 2022, FAP member Shadow Link asked me to help Hoe find a new host for servers. In addition, I taught Hoe how to run everything on her own like a true product owner, and wrote up templates and scripts to allow her full control of her vision. She offered me a position. Since that time I've focused on automated processes to increase server stability, easier workflows when we update Zandronum, along with educating other members on this process to upgrade our existing tools. That can allow more folks to undergo simpler training, and can help ensure FAP can meet any growing demands, so that this community can always grow organically.
Hobbies: I enjoy reading, gaming (both tabletop and video games), coding, hardware tinker projects, and touching grass with my pet dogs. I dabble with book binding, language learning, and dreading how poor my time management is for more hobbies.

LAST MAN STANDING! Push has the simple premise of starting players off on an elevated arena, with the objective of pushing other players off the main playing field, where they'll then fall on top of an instakill damaging floor. The arsenal has been replaced by a laser gun that with two firing modes: the primary fire shoots a laser that does little push but is very fast and accurate, and the secondary fire launches an energy grenade that has short range and arcs downward, but has massive amounts of knockback and can allow rocketjumping. There are also gauntlets that can be used to push people to the side with a well placed blow, as well as the ability for each player to double jump in order to potentially recover from hazardous situations.
