[edit] Usage

To activate a cheat in most versions, one simply types the code while playing (this also applies while in automap mode). After the last letter has been entered, a message of acknowledgement will appear at the top of the screen. The status bar, face, and ingame view may also change, depending on the effects of the code. All of the codes for the original game work in all ports, unless otherwise noted.

Cheat codes in vanilla Doom are disabled on the Nightmare! skill level, except for the iddt and idclev cheats. However, many source ports enable cheats for all skill levels.

In some ports and in the original executables, cheat codes may be different on non-QWERTY keyboards. For example, in France, idkfa may be idkfq, because of the AZERTY keyboard layout commonly used there.

[edit] Doom 95

fhhall	Kills all monsters in the level, excepting Lost Souls and the Icon of Sin. (Pain Elementals killed in this manner will still generate extra Lost Souls as normal.) The actual damage done to each monster is 10,000 points.
fhshh	Monsters do not notice players unless they are hurt or hear a shot.

The prefix "fh" stands for the initials of Fred Hommel, the Doom 95 author who created the codes.

The "hall" in "fhhall" refers to Jason Hall, CEO of Monolith, who requested that particular cheat (hence the "BY REQUEST..." message that displays when the code is executed).

[edit] EDGE

In addition to new cheat codes of its own, EDGE also allows the user to edit the cheat inputs to their own leisure through the language.ldf file. The codes below are the default forms of the new cheats.

idkillall	Kills all monsters on the map, except for Lost Souls that emerge from slain Pain Elementals
idsuicide	Kills the player [commits suicide]

[edit] Eternity

As well as supporting the additional Boom/MBF cheats, Eternity adds a number of its own.

ghost	Toggles Heretic Shadowsphere effect.
hideme	Toggles total invisibility. Monsters are not activated unless they are hurt or hear a shot.
iamtheone	Toggles god mode, total invisibility, silencer, and infinite ammo cheats, while also providing full armor, ammo, and weapons.
infshots	Toggles infinite ammo.
silence	Toggles silencer powerup. Weapon sounds will not activate monsters.

[edit] ZDoom

In order to use cheat codes in Nightmare or multiplayer in ZDoom, the variable "sv_cheats" must be set to "1" (true). This variable can be set by launching ZDoom, accessing the console via the tilde ( ~ ) key, and typing "sv_cheats 1". One should then be able to use any ZDoom-specific cheat by typing it into the console.

An example of a player using cheats in ZDoom. Note how the freeze command is being used to create art.

anubis	Makes monsters afraid of the player (toggle on/off).
fly	Allows the player to fly (toggle on/off).
freeze	Freeze Mode (stops all monsters, projectiles, friendlies and item animations, but not the player or environmental animations like wall and floor animations. Additionally allows the player to harmlessly walk through frozen projectile attacks. Toggle on/off).
give *	Gives the player items: "*" can be "all" (give everything), "health" (give full health), "weapons" (give all weapons), "ammo" (give full ammo), "armor" (give full armor), "keys" (give all keys), or the name of a specific item. This can sometimes be used to obtain items from other Doom-based games; for example, "give upgradestamina" results in a stamina implant even while playing Doom, Doom II, Heretic, or Hexen.
god	God mode (toggle on/off).
iddqd	God mode and 100% health.
kill *	"kill" by itself causes the player to commit suicide; "kill monsters" kills all of the monsters on the level.
mdk	Kills whatever the player's crosshair is pointing at. Stands for "murder death kill", a reference to the movie Demolition Man. The actual damage done to the target is 10,000,000 points, so a DeHackEd patch could conceivably allow certain monsters to survive. This code cannot be used in deathmatch games, even with cheats enabled.¹
morphme	When playing in Hexen or Doom, turns the player into a Hexen pig, if the appropriate graphics are available. When playing Heretic, this code transforms the player into a Heretic chicken.
noclip	No-clipping mode (toggle on/off).
notarget	Monsters will not see the player unless hurt. If a monster has already seen a player, it will still pursue the player even when the cheat is activated. (toggle on/off).
powerup	Gives the same power as the Tome of Power if playing Heretic.
resurrect	If the player is dead, revives them with full health. In Heretic, this cannot be used if the player has been gibbed.
summon *	Spawns an actor (monster). The dumpclasses actor command can be used to see all the spawnable actors.
summonfriend *	Same as "summon", except that the spawned monster will attack enemies. A friendly Arch-Vile created this way will resurrect both friendly and enemy monsters, turning them friendly. Friendly Cyberdemons are also able to injure enemy Cyberdemons with their rockets (and vice-versa), ignoring Cyberdemon's immunity to their own rockets.
sv_fastweapons #	Changes speed of weapons. "#" can be any number from 0-2; the default is 0.
sv_infiniteammo #	If "#" is 1, enables infinite ammo. If "#" is 0, disables it.
turbo #	Changes player speed, similar to the "-turbo" command line in vanilla Doom. "#" can be any number from 10-256; the default is "100".
