I tried out the Hakros Doom Launcher and I like its GUI and the grouping of GzDoom mods.
I will checking out the 1.5 version when that'll be out. :)

Thanks for dedicating your free time on making this beauty, hope more people start using it ^^

Through the content explorer you can see all mods, addons and maps added and use the filter between new ones and installed.

After a really annoying bug with Doom Runner thats been there for a year or so, I've been looking for another launcher and I do like the sound of this one. The only thing I can't stand, similar to the Doom Launcher called "Doom Launcher," it seems to me like if you want to add a bunch of mods/wads you have on your PC, you have to do so one at a time. It gets really annoying and tedious for someone like me who has 34.9 GB of mods and maps.

I do want to like this one. I just personally don't want to deal with all the work it takes to import all my mods right now. I get that this has a big focus on downloading mods via the launcher, but a lot of the time I imagine a mod will either not be available in the launcher for download yet, or will be outdated.

EDIT: I also haven't found a way to use command line arguments, which is a deal breaker since I use separate save folders and configs.

I'm seriously loving this launcher, so far. I've come from Doom Runner myself and to see an all-in-one downloader and main launcher in this manner here is honestly perfect. I love how it's all laid out and how customizable it is. Thanks for this, mate!

I was having this problem with doom runner, but I realized yesterday I can just open up an explorer window, shift click and drag and drop all at once into the mods folder. Try it out, it might not be what you're after but it works p well.
